He's teaching TGM at its finest!

He's showing you the mechanics, then he's trying to show you the feel, then he demonstrates it.

Sometimes things aren't always spelled out for you, you have to read between the lines a little
OK, so when does he tell us what to REALLY DO in order to produce what REALLY happens?

So what he stated and demonstrated, certainly appears to be a Swinging Motion. For some reason with all the discussion I expected to see this hitting motion, but it is not.

Thanks for the tape. It was interesting.

He says that, but that's not what he's doing - he's moving the entire club past the left hip, not just the clubhead. But the problem is that he's doing it by moving his entire left arm away from his body with arm effort.

Chapter 3 is in the Gallery.
Lee sent a swing video to Tom after receiving Tom's instruction. What follows is more dialog specific to what Tom saw in the video and more personal instruction.
Lee, jump in and fill in the gaps if you wish.

Part 3
Interesting in part 3, he specifically states that you do not cock/uncock the right wrist. Different from what it looks like he's doing.
