A Guess?

Let me hazard a guess. I think Bucket is trying to say that the mass alignments and distribution results in walking once a little control / education is applied. Similarly, in TGM, the alignments of the club, arms, and hands with control / education will naturally result in proper golf strokes. Create the wedges / flat lead wrist / bent trailing wrist (stand upright with body mass over legs), use magic of the right forearm to reach top / end (fall forward), drive down plane letting educated hands maintain your alignments through impact (let your educated legs and feet catch you alternating to propel you forward), and swivel into finish to maintain balance (swing arms to counter leg motion to maintain balance).

This description probably butchers both TGM and walking, but I think this is the gist of what Bucket is implying. The geometric principles of TGM naturally and inevitably lead to proper golf strokes like the geometric arrangement of the human body inevitably leads to proper walking.
