I have a problem with the TGM classifications in that none describes, as far as I can see, any resemblance to what I consider a "good downswing technique". With one's back to the target, at the top ("End" in TGM jargon) the worst possible thing one can do is to start moving the shoulders back to the ball before (1) the slide of the hips back is underway(**), and (2) the hands have reached waist high or thereabouts. Moving the shoulders first, even a fraction, leads to an over-the-top move. (** Actually, the slide of the hips back should start before the backswing completes.)
Having read a lot more, and having viewed more videos, I now realise that every possible alignment and motion (well almost every) is in the Book -- which makes my former statements somewhat stupid. I guess I was originally looking for quick fixes rather than the progressive development that Homer recognised as the only way to develop or redevelop one's personal swing.
Well I have lots of time Actually I really have lots of time for inhouse reading and practice, but not outside practice or playing until September -- as last Sunday I dislocated my replacement hip. In some ways it's a blessing in disguise.

Weightshift,
Without questions, there can be no answers.
You've filled your Incubator to the brim in recent weeks. Soon the chicks will begin to hatch.
