Only problem is the occasional "stinger". ie: sometimes I hit one and it takes off really low. Today, I was 180 out on a par four, hit a nice six iron, but it was a low smoking ball, hit the green and ran out. Doesn't happen all the time, just occasionally and I was wondering what may be causing it. Could it be hands too forward at impact?
I'd check a few things . . . .

1. do you get "shutty" at the top?
2. like you said you could be too "leany" with the shaft. how are your divots . . . beaver pelts or bacon strips? angle of attack could be too steep
3. could be the face is closing to rapidly . . . remember that you still have #2 accumulator motion. So do some hammering with the club in a vertical plane. make sure that you don't have your grip arranged in a way that causes you to shut the face when you "hammer" . . . Eddie Cox showed me this . . . it's a BIG DEAL . . . even for hitters . . . even though you ain't #2 dependent you still are employing that accumulator. You need to be sure that your grip matches the motion. So if you hammer the ground and the blade closes . . . could be hooky and low.

that's my take.
