ColtsFan, Homer wants you to monitor your hands but for a swinger like me they are pulled down by your body, the bump of the hips allows them to be pulled down on plane.
For me starting with the hands made my downswing very quick, i would loose my lag pressure too early and suffer from snap hooks.
Ya....you try to direct your hands to a spot...(at or ahead of the ball or wherever you're aiming your thrust...this is Aiming Point).....but what ACTUALLY moves them is your body.
Watch Hogan.....mad hip slide.....(without his head moving forward too much- this is how Axis Tilt [spine tilt] happens BTW).....watch his left knee....move towards the target.
Mind in the hands tho (where you are directing them)....but the body does the actual moving of them.

That's a pretty cool site anyway....lots of pics and swing stuff....(if you click on the lessons at the bottom of the page)
I skimmed through it....and a lot of seems to be pretty good.....the setup stuff seemed to be good (from what I got out of it from very quickly skimming)....
But then I got to lesson 6...
"The clubface MUST not roll open in the backswing."
...
Seems to be method teaching...
I mean....this would work for Palmer, Trevino, Lema, Irwin, Funk, Duval, etc...(anyone with that kind of clubface control)
But not for Hogan, Mickelson, Jones, blah blah blah etc. etc.
Personally, that guy wouldn't be a good fit for me...(I use Standard Wrist Action....i.e. with a swivel in the takeaway and right before the Release)...
