I think the combo of "swing left" and "take the hands out of the swing/use the big muscles" pretty much ruined my swing. Led to some serious steering and a big up and out of it move for me. Most of these "catch phrases" may be a way of stating what some feel, but misapplied can mess people up. A precision system it aint!

Precision would be swing on your selected plane!
It makes me happy to see Mr. Tillery and I share a lot of similar ideas...

Yes that would be THE Ohio State University......you know, where the president of the university is afraid that the football coach might fire him
As long as Tressel keeps beating the "team from up north" and winning the Big Ten Championship, he might just do that.
My son graduated from The Ohio State with a degree in engineering physics. Great school...O-H

I-O! Got my undergrad there too, love the place but that press conference was embarrassing.

Ha, ha, ha...
As a student there, you are using admin systems that I designed and wrote back in the mid-1980's! (I'm an alumni and worked there full time at University Systems after graduation.)
And you are also fellow students with my two daughters...oops, my oldest graduated a couple of weeks ago! (that will make one feel old...)

It seems like you refer to second hand advice rather than a true & knowledgeable source.
If you go to the right sources you will find this as part of a very thought through system. After all this is pretty much what Ben Hogan did and a lot of the greats of the past and present.
But the "take the hands out of the swing" thing will mean something entirely different, like: Maintain leverage through impact and get as far away from a flip as possible.

Well, yes and no.
"Swing left" and "big muscle/take the hands out" are popular phrases in the magazines and the experts who write the articles. These were also right from the mouth of the last pro I took lessons with. He has taught some good players around here including Ben Curtis in high school.
The problem is that there isn't enough precision in these phrases so it's easy to get off track. Swing left of what? Or to what? How far left is TOO much? It is a feel that didn't work for me. I wasn't tracing the plane line and it disrupted my finish swivel.
The hands have specific things to do in the swing. Instead of saying "take the hands out of the swing", I have found that it is MUCH more effective for me to think about what the hands should do. More precision in, more precision out.
