Most good impact positions I've seen show the hands just slightly ahead of the ball.

Anyway, I made the correction and started hitting the ball with a much better trajectory. It's amazing how we tend to "overdo" things in the golf swing!
It was the first thing Yoda stripped out of my setup. Although I thought it was a spot on position, he saw it as exaggeration. We found my grip with a Momentus Indoor Driver from his cartrunk. He had me in the parking lot tracing parking lines and hitting an Impact Bag. It had a formed grip on it that put my hands in the traditional grip. The Impact Fix has just an inflection of the beam and strut formation than an extreme. He told me it's easy to overdo, to make me feel better.
