Preset hands forward by lead hand inside lead thigh

The second setup key presets the impact position at address rather than trying to force the hands forward during the swing. From a normal setup with the club on line with the belt, the coach moves his lead hand inside his lead thigh, which he says presets the hands forward, and keeps that position throughout the swing. He says this makes you hit ball first almost every time.
