So, I've been really trying to let go of tension during the entire swing. In doing that, I was thinking that I should feel the wrists un hinging through impact. I'm glad a started videoing that effort! I was horrified to see it made me a flip and fall back swinger! I mean I was a poster child for this type of swing flaw! Needless to say, I've stopped that in very short order.
My shots, into the net, are feeling crispier all the time. I'm currently working on ridding my self of a move, at the transition that is taking my swing path over the top. I'm rotating to begin the downswing rather that initiating the hip bump. I'm also trying to get the club lower in the back swing to a more, around the body feeling.
I have to say, at this point, I've completely eliminated slamming the club into the ground behind the ball. This alone is just amazing to me. I was literally hurting myself, physically, with my old swing. Thanks for helping me stop beating myself up, Tom!! Both, emotionally and literally!!! It's nice to now, finally, know what crispy feels like!

Admittedly, I am just learning the full Saguto swing with irons! The suggested video on the "release" of conventional golf instruction was very clarifying for me in my basement with a mat and a net. On the course, with irons, I was throwing the clubhead as a old habit.
WHAT HAS BEEN WORKING NOW THANKS TO YOUR HELP--
(1) Straight arms in a connected 2.8 backswing (its amazing how picture-perfect this backswing looks with the auto right arm fold and auto-kinetic sequencing of the downswing. My trigger: Tilt and Turn but move left arm into position across the chest while keeping the wrist angles.
(2) Impact-- flying wedge into impact, making sure the hands return to their original address position to guarantee crispiness. STRAIGHT ARMS AT IMPACT !!!!
(3) Hitting the snot out of the ball with the Right arm/SHOULDER, LOWERED.
