I think that you may have misunderstood my statement.

My comments regarding "compensation" were made regarding my assessment of those who adopt mid-body hands and keep the clubface at its impact fix alignment. They have to "manipulate" (turn) the wrist alignment to achieve this rather than allow clubface to take on an alignment at mid body hands which was more closed than impact fix ( which maintains wrist vertical).

This is the point that Brian Manzella's recent video tutorial illustrates very nicely and seems very natural for mid-body hands and swinging . But did Homer mention this ? Did he overlook it or consider it and think it unimportant?

If you adopt closed clubface at adjusted address and hit it straight is this a sign of a non-flippy motion ? Forward leaning shaft etc??

If there is one main issue with TGM that drives me insane I believe it is this. Between Chuck, Yoda and Brian it seems they are each teaching a different way to grip and address the club. Brian teaches his "neutral" grip and a square face at address with mid-body hands. Chuck's has the hands at a "special" position and the face is slightly open (for a swinger). Now I'm seeing a mid-body hands and a closed face here. So which is it? Or is it another variation that the player can pick and choose which one works best?
