I put the date in the tread title because I am SURE it will change somewhat after our symposium.
Sure of it.
What other teaching group/method/company would say such a thing?
None.
We have branded ourselves as the guys who will change anything or everything tomorrow if we learn that it is not scientifically valid, or doesn't produce scientific ideals.
Why do we say such a thing?
Because, simply put I can get it done on the lesson tee teaching anything. And I have surrounded myself with a group of guys (we are adding two more at AS2) who can do the same. So, when we learn new things from the scientists—or adjust things we don't have quite correct—it has always, ALWAYS, made us teach better almost instantly.
We are nowhere near publishing an official p1.68 text, but we have put some of the stuff out that is being taught right now.
Here is THE list of the science of project 1.68 as of today.
1. The Resultant Path (HSP/VSP/AofA) by Fredrik Tuxen and the D-Plane by Theodore Jorgensen.
2. Tour angle of attack study by TrackMan (on the PGA and LPGA tours) and Flightscope (Euro tour).
3. The hub path study, and work and power study, by Dr. Steven Nesbit.
4. The 2d representation of the 3d motion of the primary two levers, as put forth by Dr. Aaron Zick.
5. The bending modes of the shaft by Dr. Sasho MacKenzie.
6. The above five "tenets" overlaid on the POSITIONAL analyses of every Tour 3D capture study we can obtain, including Model Golf by Dr. Ralph Mann, Individual PGA tour player and TOUR COMPOSITE capture/calculations of the TaylorMade MATT-T system, the AMM/TPI studies by Phil Cheetham and TPI.
It's petty, or sad, or mostly both, listening to folks take shots at our science when this is the first time I have "published" a list.
And, again what sets us apart from EVERY OTHER TEACHING GROUP that I know is that we don't wait for other pros or non pros to tell us what they think of those 6, we are PUBLICLY going to test the validity of our interpretations of them LIVE AT THE ANTI-SUMMIT 2.
Would any other group do this?
It is really too bad the AS2 isn't a whole week, that way we could have a day for the 5 leading methodologies to each present their work for scientific and peer review.
We don't.
We have 7 hours, and we have to catch a lot of folks—they'll be about 50-55 people in the room—up with what the scientists have told us, and what they haven't heard from each other.
But, and this goes for anyone, and I mean anyone, if you have a question or two (not 12 like SteveT) I will do everything I can to get it asked and answered at AS2.
Since we published our list of science—as of now—where are the other "leading" methodology's lists?
Apparently, just asking this question has made many folks not very happy.
Anyhoo, there's our list. If you follow our stuff and it has helped your teaching or playing or both, there is a good study list.
Learn from it all you want.
If you are a critic, detractor, or fervent competitor, do some work and see if it is valid.
Oh, wait.....we are doing it ourselves LIVE on Monday.
And we'll ask about your stuff too.
Sure of it.
