Collin, I think you've got a powerful, athletic swing. The only reason I mentioned your head movement is that I'm having the same problem with my swing. I was hoping Lynn might jump in with some suggestions on how to approach this problem.
Was the head movement discussed during your lesson with Lynn? If so, how are you guys approaching this problem?
Thanks.
Depending on how flexible you are, standard knee action is easier than right anchor. The same holds for hip motion.
Standard hip motion combined with Standard knee action is a very helpful way to maintain a steady head and is especially helpful when cross line hip motion is used.
A great image for this is to feel that you 'sit on your right cheek' as you pivot. It can help those who tend to come over the top tremendously, especially when using a 'slip grip' drill.

I would focus my intention on "spinning/rotating" the pivot/shoulders around the spine, instead of "sliding along" the "line of flight of the ball" or the "path of the thrust".
In other words, you "spin" to allow the head to be stationary, which can be very tough to accomplish with an intention of applying power to the ball by the pivot action. The pivot is supposed to apply power to the arms and club.
Will a swing with a "lunging" head work? Absolutely, as long as it's precise enough, which demands tremendous talent and hard work.

"Sustain (Yang/陽) the lag (Yin/陰)" is "the unification of Ying and Yang" (陰陽合一).
The "LAW" creates the "effect", which is the "motion" or "feel", with the "cause", which is the "intent" or "command".
"Lag" is the secret of golf, passion is the secret of life.

Guys,
I have the same problem. It is my biggest swing flaw. On Yoda's recommendation, I ordered a B.O.S.U. ball the other day. I think between that and working on my flexibility(it doesn't help sitting in a chair 12 hours a day at work), I should see some improvment by late spring. Interestingly, the Golf Channel's Health & Fitness section is now in week three of B.O.S.U. ball exercises.
