YOU load and sustain the "LAG", during which the " LAW" releases it, ideally beyond impact.
"Sustain ( Yang/陽) the lag ( Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" ( 陰陽合一).
The " LAW" creates the " effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the " cause", which is the "intent" or "command".
" Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life.
Think as a golfer, execute like a robot.
Rotate, twist, spin, turn.
Bend the shaft.

BTS,
I guess Goosen. El Tigre "seems" to manipulate many shots at release to "save em". Retief has always struck me as a pure CF motion.

Natural vs. Least Manipulated
Some guys that I can think of that have what might be called NATURAL swings(not to be confused with Natural Golf) are players like Bruce Lietzke, Jim Furyk, Fred Couples, and Hale Irwin. These guys came up with something that works well for them, and have apparently changed very little over the years.
Mr. Goosen is also very "natural," but I did hear he is now working with an instructor. The help seems to be working out well for him this week in Atlanta.
A player out there now... that looks like he may have a "True Swing" is Chad Campbell. It appears centrifugal force is doing most of the job for him.
Some of the fellows that Mr. Yoda works with look very good. They program in what they intend to do, then do it.
Brian Gay's action looked very good from the footage I saw from the Chrysler event. I'm not sure how Mr. Yoda would classify him in terms of "True Swinger" or "Hands Manipulated Swinger." Either way, can work well.

Moe Norman
If we include deceased golfers, then the list could get quite long, yet one name will always separate from them all: Harry Vardon. Famed architecht A. J. Tillinhast was a keen observer of golf from the first US Open through the era of Nelson, Hogan, and Snead. He saw or played with just about every great player during that long span. When asked to pick his own all time top ten, the name at the top was Vardon followed by Bobby Jones. Tillinghast said: "Without hesitation, I name the great Harry Vardon as the peer of all golfers who ever lived. He was so close to absolute perfection, save for the occasional stabbing of his putts, that his monotous immaculate stroking made the game absurdly simple."

Homer Kelly...apparently...
One well known GSED once said that the only Uncompensated Stroke he ever saw was Homer Kelly's.
I never really understood that...
