Surfing in from the Dark Side.
There is much to learn from the "Dark Side".

Head to the dark side and bring you stupid, uneducated club with you. Remember you can’t educate a club, but you can educate your hands. Close your eyes and learn to execute the alignments and pressure points mentally. You will become more conscious of what they are doing. Learn to feel them correctly and incorrectly so that you can "differentiate the differences".

As Bucket pointed out, the hands because they move slower than the clubhead are easier to monitor (they move at approximately 11-13 mph vs. 80-100 mph clubhead). If you pay attention to the Clubhead, Down-Stroke Blackout will be your new best friend and your game will never see the light.

Additional things to might want to add the ever-expanding list:
Grip
Rhythm
Delivery Path

Food for thought. To the list you may also add when all these things go wrong:
On Plane vs. Off-Plane
Proper Acceleration vs. Over-Acceleration
