Jerry,

City is jacking this thread and you're enabling him by responding to his rant. I had to respond to correct his egregious misunderstanding of something I said which no doubt he has taken out of context or has me confused with someone else.

We have four pressure points in which to monitor the Plane Line and Innercityteacher chooses his Thumb. This is going to be easier than I thought.

Yoda, if you get the pleasure of working with Innercityteacher next spring, you might consider starting a "Journal" right about now. I'm thinking of creating a "TGM Quotes" Album (of some of the thoughts he's had) for Innercityteacher that I can give to him as a "Second Place Award" when we play next Spring. Then he can look back on his development (as we all do) and laugh.

I read a lot of our posts and I do have a touch of ADD so I do cross-referece on the fly mixing quotes, book references and film.

Jerry has a coach's/counselor's heart, like a lot of people around here do. Yoda seems to, also, or I would've been tossed long ago.

Besides a sense of humor, and an idiosyncratic tilt, I do offer other advantages besides dogged determination. I can teach anything I learn to almost anyone and they seem to like it, a lot. And, I have a certain charming type of a "John Wayne" type walk that make s me popular at red-neck bars and country line-dance lessons between NASCAR events.

It's hard to Pivot and "see" the # 3 and the # 1 PP's. I feel # 4 and # 2 well enough but if my left hand is my club face and my left thumb is aft, the uncocking vertical left wrist will release before swivel and where it releases is both down and out with the left thumb pointing straight down.

If Lynn gives me lessons, I'll learn. If not, he has trained "faithful men" who will teach anyone, even me, how to do a sound TGM-guided swing.

What amazes me besides all the good stuff here, is Yoda's influence and ability to give insight to Kevin and Jerry during just one session. Those guys are sharp. And, it is way cool to see how good people like OB, Ted, Ed-Z, Jeff are after serious study.

And Daryl, I was born under a competitive star. Happily, I don't mind beating people I admire, like a rented mule.
