Recently, I have been having a problem losing lag, in particular with my driver, my right wrist was flattening too early and I was hitting what I would call leakage hooks where the toe was passing the heel. I tried everything to fix the problem and finally by accident fixed the problem by altering my ball position. Apparently the ball was too far back in my stance to really maintain lag with a club as long as a driver. Intuitively I would have thought the further the ball up in your stance the more difficult it would be to maintain lag, but apparently I was wrong. Is there somebody out there that can explain this phenomena to a novice TGM Fan??

not me
can recall reading a post of yoda's somewhere where he talked about ball position affecting the flying wedges, or more specifically the right wrist, at impact fix. The further the ball was forward the more the right wrist would be bent.. if memory sreves. dont know if that helps

If the pivot moves the right shoulder at the same speed as the power package or primary lever assembly-the accumulators will not be released by this action until the right elbow can straighten. For swingers if rotaion stops too soon, because the ball is positioned too far back, the hands speed up and move at a faster rate of rotation, releasing the right arm too soon. You run out of right arm before you get to the ball, causing the right wrist to flatten an a closed clubface at seperation.
With a more forward ball position, you are more likely to continue the rotation of your right shoulder, giving you more "out", delaying the transfer of momentum.

More forward BALL position REQUIRES a more forward aiming point and more trigger delay.
