Great point on the hands.

My favorite quote in "The Golfing Machine" is actually in the Preface p.XI of the seventh edition. Homer states, "The number one alignment is the flate left wrist. The flat left wrist is a golfing imperative. Without it, more information means only more confusion."

The Flat Left wrist is Clubface Control. I believe when the PGA of America states Clubface Control is on a 2 to 1 ratio of importance to path. They are in line with what I believe Homer is saying. You must learn to control the clubface first and to do that you must have a geometrically flat left wrist at impact.
