Looking forward to your contributions and participation on this site...
I worked for Kelley Miller and Peggy Kirk Bell for 3 1/2 years at Pine Needles as their Head Instructor....They all had great things to say about you...especially "Chico"
When Lynn Blake asked him about 10-3-E Putt and the motionless Right Shoulder was his reply that it could be executed as a "Swing" or "Hit", thereby matching the Full Stroke Pattern?.
The Minor Basic Strokes are usually for the Short Shots only and can be used in combination with the Major Basic Strokes. Most can be employed Hitting or Swinging. Certainly, that is the case with the Putt Minor Basic Stroke.
I downloaded 2 Homer Kelley audio conversations at that web site. Didn't see anything there that was contrary to anything I've learned from Yoda or any other TGM sources.
Edit: I mean anything on that site, of course. The audio tapes are sublime.

I was fortunate enough to meet the legendary Paul Hart at the Henry-Griffitts Super School in Surfer's Paradise, Australia. He and his apprentice, Steve Khatib, were real gentlemen and treated those of us from the U.S. like they'd known us for years. It was a great experience.
If you speak to Paul, please tell him that Ted Fort said, G'day mate. I'd love to spend some additional time with Paul, talking about TGM.
Yoda and I are looking forward to meeting you. I hope it works out at the Barclay's.
Ted
Paul is back from New Zealand and we have been speaking on a regular basis. I will say G'day for for you when we next chat.
Ted and Lynn
I am hopefull that Paul Hart, Lynn and yourself can all hook up somehow for the benefit of golf
He is just a joy to speak to regarding lots of things including TGM.
FWIW I told Paul the other night that I think the future torch bearer of TGM will involve Lynn.
Ted as a hitter you may be interested to know that Paul and I have agreed to work on me hitting for a 6 mth period initially.
Then longer term to try swinging. Paul said he signed something that said as a TGM AI you should know both swinging and hitting and be able to demonstrate both.
He says once you realise what each of them is all about in your own experience then you wonder what all your questions were really all about.

Ted,
I spoke with Paul Hart last night and he really apreciated your comment when I read it to him.
He would love to catch up again as he very much enjoyed your time together.
Just for the sake of accuracy Steve Khatib is not his apprentice.

Knowing Paul, I would say that would be anyone's loss. He's overly qualified as far as "Mentor status" goes. I have a friend in Australia, at one of the finest courses in the world. Maybe we could have an Australian, LBG School. It would be worth it's weight in gold to have Lynn and Paul meet and talk TGM for a few days. I'd get writer's cramp. I'm officially putting this on my wish list.

Tape 6-H-0 to your forehead.
I wish that all AI's had been required to stick to the same creed. Hitting got lost somewhere.
Great topic gentlemen,
In my limited observation, there seems about a 50-50 split among the tour players I've looked at between dual horizontal and angled hinging (obvoiusly one of the key determiming factors of hitter vs. swinger). An AI better know both.
