In this first release, Homer talks with Lynn Blake for the first time.
Holy Smoke!!!!! You are my G.O.L.F. Hero!!!! Awesome!!!! This is truly amazing. This is the first time I have had the pleasure of hearing Mr. Kelley. My initial observations would be that the man OWNED this information. You can hear the conviction in his voice. It seems that there is no question he couldn't answer . . . COMPLETELY! The second observation is that he seems to be all about the "possibilities." As long as you adhere to the basic geometry, you can do anything you like.
The book is a truly amazing piece of work, but to actually hear the man himself is unreal. There was obviously WAY WAY more in his mind than what actually made it into print.
Those of you that were fortunate enough to go to the AI Schools and speak on the phone with Mr. Kelley were truly blessed.
I can't wait to hear more. This is exactly the type of stuff that needs to get out. Thank you sir.

Fantastic - I guess it takes a little brainwork for all of us to get some of the concepts of the golfing machine. Hinge action - turning, rolling, swivel???

Hinge Action is the Left Wrist remaining Vertical to one of the Three Basic Planes. Swivel Action (or Wrist Action) is Turning or Rolling away from that Vertical condition.
With Horizontal and Angled Hinge Action, the Vertical Left Wrist appears to Roll through Impact. However, as long as the Wrist remains Vertical, there has been no independent rotation of the Hand (and hence no Swivel).
But at the same time I don't know if it was correct of Peter Croker to put it on the web as it really something that belonged to Lynn and Tom collectively.... just IMO
Homer, this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship...
And so it began...
I am amazed that Lynn still sounds the same 25+ years later and how much he knew, before he ever talked to Mr. Kelley. The little yellow book is much easier to read when you have a guide.
"Homer, this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship."

I love your adapted line from Casablanca, Drew. And I'm sure that after a couple of years of me badgering him with all kinds of questions, Homer could well have uttered Rick's other famous line:
"Of all the gin joints in all the world, you had to walk into mine!"
