Yeah, IF you make no attempt to manipulate it square. Why shouldn't we?

The clubface alignment at fix and mid-body hands can only the same if the wrist is no longer vertical at adjusted address. It is ideally vertical at impact and advisedly vertical at address - by my reading of the book.

Keeping wrist vertical and moving from impact fix to mid-body always moves the clubface more closed. Why do you want to manipulate wrist condition at adjusted address to keep the alignment look "normal" ? If your manipulation is consistent then it won't matter but most manipulations ( malalignments) are advised against in TGM, at least the way I read the book. Yes you can do what you like, there are 3 trillion swings etc... but why chose a less efficient alignment to start your swing from??? It surely means that you are compensating from the start of your swing?
