I used the phrase "Toe of the Club" because that is exactly the phrase Homer Kelley used. I wondered the same thing as I wrote the post and here would be my answer (not his):

Remember, during Release, both the Clubshaft and the Toe of the Club are rotating around the Sweetspot. And the Toe of the Swinger's Club is rotating counter-clockwise trying desperately to get 'in line' with the Sweet Spot and #3 Pressure Point for Horizontal Hinging through Impact. Hence, Homer's reference to the Toe causing the Release Bend.

Interesting sidelight:

That's why those old-timey wooden golf clubs were made with such long Toes. They were virtually impossible to Angled Hinge!
