How good can Average Joe be? Let's assume enough physical talent to play a high school sport. Decent eye hand coordination . . .
We Drinkers of the Koolaid are armed with the absolute BEST information in golf - G.O.L.F. What can we do with this information?
The average handicap is stagnant at best. Let's say that the LBG/TGM Revolution's momentum continues to swell. How good can Joe Average be let us assume 2 hours of practice time, 1 18 hole round, and 1 9 hole escape per week.
Hogan said that the "average" golfer should be a 70's shooter. What do we say?

I don't know what the rest of we will say.
But I do know what Homer Kelley said.
And he said:
"If you can keep your Left Wrist Flat through Impact, you will break 80 tomorrow."
In fact, that is exactly what he did in 1941. After only five months of golf, he shot a 77 on a championship course. His book -- The Golfing Machine® -- was born because he could not explain how he did it. Nor could he find anyone else who could. And because he didn't know, he immediately reverted to his old, high-handicap form. The "sweeping" Feel he had that day soon became a distant memory.
Sixteen years later, he discovered the Flat Left Wrist. Only then did he remember what the pro had told him:
"Semi-lock your left wrist through impact."
That is what Homer had done those many years before.
Boy do I agree.
Assuming you are lined up to your target and you know your distances.
What is the scoring value of hitting the fairway?
What is the scoring value of hitting greens?
What is the scoring value of chipping, pitching and bunker play within Birdie radius of the pin?
What is the scoring value of an on-line putt?
My opinion, that flat left wrist is the Master Essential!
How difficult is it on every shot?
Witness the need for corrective Golf Instruction and training aids worldwide.
The Momentus, Tic Tac Wrist, Impact Bag, Medicus, Swingsetter, etc. All of them can be measured as effective or ineffective by their ability to correct a bent left wrist.
Put another way, it is difficult to keep a flat left wrist off plane and/or without lag pressure.

Why is it then all of these instructors and training aids rarely even mention the Flat Left Wrist?
Is it because the Left Wrist can only become Flat and remain Flat because of the Right Wrist Bend? It doesn't Flatten on its own.
Little Independence in the Flying Wedges, I guess.
