Giving it away
When we decided to start this website and forum it was done under a couple of premises; To help promote Lynn Blake and to open up Homers work to the world.

From the beginning, Lynn and I both shared a common philosophy which is, the understanding of Homers work shouldn't be limited to just a handful of people. It should be opened up and clarified for the benefit of players, teachers, and duffers alike. The TGM system still has a long way to go before it is recognized as mainstream, but within the highest levels of instruction it is recognized as an important system. Keeping the understanding of TGM limited to just a handful of people wasn't going to revolutionize golf or give Homer Kelley the recognition he deserves. Even those who stand on Homer's shoulders have failed to give him credit.

We give away a tremendous amount of information here, information others charge for and in some cases, information others use publicly without crediting Homer or Lynn.

For instance, Lynn introduced using dowels as an important teaching device well before we had this site up and running. Its not about the dowel, but how they are used that is key. Now you will find instructors with dowels in hand everywhere you look, including throughout the new website of The Golfing Machine, LLC. We also watch The Golf Channel and see drills and concepts introduced by Lynn being taught by others (who, on at least three occasions, have been his students).

Will we continue giving it away?

The basic premise for starting this site still stands, and although Lynn isn't given public credit for the contributions he's making, the well is very deep and there is much, much more to come.
