I have read this thread with some interest since my experience with Jimmy is quite different. Don't get me wrong, I love Homer's book but I found my time with Jimmy (in the 90s) to be very beneficial. He still teaches connection and I found the idea of coiling into my right leg astonishing since I never had done it in 20 plus years of golf.
Since that time, I now play to a 5 handicap and still coil into my right leg (do not go over the wall and sway).
You have to take some of the other ideas (triangle, fire the right side, and head position) with a grain of salt.
I think he had some genuine interest in me as a student and while I don't subscribe to all of his theories, I found some of it to be quite effective....for me.
My two cents.

PS: I have Alignment Golf and continue to try to knock down my handicap. Of course, playing once every two months doesn't help.

Thomas Edison knew 1800 ways not to build a light bulb.
I was on the range. We were a group training together. I was hitting a wedge without any distance control, and a lot shorter than I would have done with proper impact aligmnent. In hindsight I had a glancing blow and massive compression leakage. But I was on plane and I was hitting it straight towards the target. Really frustrating and guaranteed to not work on the course even if I took two clubs extra. When the pro came to me he was totally satisfied with my ball striking even though I expressed my own dissatisfaction. That's the worst "advice" I've ever received.
BALL FLIGHT (F)LAWS would be my vote. I always wondered how I hit that 30 yard hook 7 iron (that started left of target) with the divot pointing right. Now I can actually diagnose flaws from my ball flight.

Thanks YODA, I'm loving your site. The information and FREE videos are amazing. I'll be picking up ALIGNMENT GOLF as soon as I can aford it (grad. school is expensive ).
Kevin, you are too kind. I'm just starting this journey and barely know enough to keep up with the simple stuff. By the way, after much confusion/consideration I have decided I am a swinger after all. Hope we can still be friends
