Let's discuss the #1 Reason for NO LAG with a FORWARD LEANING SHAFT.

In the book 3-F-7-A, 3-F-7-B, and 6-D go into this. What do you find to be the #1 Reason? I'll start...

#1-- The fear of the ball going to the right. The player senses that if he gets his shaft leaing forward and his hands ahead of the ball... he will leave the ball to the right.

Fix... go ahead and hit some balls on the range attempting to get the hands ahead of the ball at Impact. The hands will probably look like they are over your left toes, and ahead of your line of sight, and with the Clubface OPEN, OR POINTING A LITTLE TO THE RIGHT. After a few balls, if your grip is good, the CLUBFACE will probably start to SQUARE UP at Separation, and some good divots(forward of the ball), and some good solid shots should start coming. I suggest starting with some 1/2 to 3/4 swings( knockdowns) with an 8 or 9 iron.

Even among "educated" golfers, right up there has to be a misunderstanding of hinge action (so obviously, if you don't know about the "label" of hinge action you have even less hope). Specifically, that nothing has to be tried with the hands to execute proper hinge action. The left hand/wrist should be programmed to be in a certain condition (postion relative to a basic plane).
But there is no roll of anything, there is "roll." (imparted by orbiting torso and/or arms). The natural, unfailing hinge assembly is the left shoulder. If you know this, there is no reason in the world to wrongly divert "down and out", "down and out" (of the HANDS - which in turn control the clubface) will be diverted, at the proper time, by the hinge assembly.
