Thanks.

It is only throw away if you are out of sequence, that 'chain' must move from the ground up to both arms straight. As long as your pivot is keeping you from 'breaking the chain', (meaning the lower part of the chain always moves first as the motion of the 'whip' moves up your left side, down your left arm, to the club), you can 'feel' a throw "away" from the target.
When you feel that throw, what you are really feeling is lag pressure, and you 'lay the hammer down' on the ball.
As another drill - get a hammer. Hold it in your left hand as if you were ready to hammer a nail. Now turn that entire 'left arm wedge' that is the hammer and your left forearm, that 'on plane' left wrist cock - to the plane. (from your standard left hand hammer position, simply get into golf posture and turn the left wrist 90 degrees clockwise so your palm is facing you)
From this extreme (basically a 10-2-D grip) you can 'hammer a nail through the inside back corner' and you will find that you don't need to think about the 'roll', just hammer that nail and the roll will take care of itself.
As you get the feel for this uncock and roll, you'll find that unless you want to play a fade, 10-2-B is the better option.
Remember it is the sequence, the rhythm, that matters, so go slowly and start with small swings - and STAY with small swings until you really have it 'down'
