    A little golfing "philosophy"...

    This will be my last post to the forum for a long while. In another thread, I wrote: "TW is top dog by a noticeable margin, but that margin would not make it impossible for him to beat Nelson's record at some point in his career if the second tier doesn't take it up another notch."

    Drive Out Action

    <I think a good thought for all to remember is that learning golf (like living life) is a journey, not a destination. We take one step so that we can take the next one.

    Personal attacks in these discussions.

    What is wrong with you guys that you have to resort to gutter talk? Why even attack someone personally? It shows weakness.

    Moe Norman's one plane swing

    Here are some selected quotes from TGM experts on the subject of the "impossibility" of swinging on one plane, followed by rwh's observations of actual footage of Moe Norman. "Swinging on a single axis is nearly impossible. Which is why you use words like "essentially" and...

    Q. about TGM and HK

    I would sincerely like to know if HK ever had any pics of his swing published for TGM or any articles. If not, why not in your opinion. If so, of course I would like the reference. Brian, you said you would answer this question, but never have.
