I converted to the stack and tilt this spring and have seen much improvement in my ball striking. I believe I have the basics incorporated into my swing and want to begin refining the principles of S & T. Rather than working on obvious weaknesses, I would like to focus on progression of elements to become more effective with the S & T swing. Any advice on where to begin, what to emphasize and prgression to follow?

Have you posted a video?
Have you thought about trying evolvr?

People can overdo and underdo different swing fundamentals. Without seeing a video, difficult to know where to start.
I suppose the ultimate goal of the swing is to be able to hit the ball the furthest, the most accurately in order to get the ball in the hole in the fewest strokes.
In order to hit the ball the furthest, the most accurately, the club head needs to travel down and forward on the longest lever arm the fastest and (I would argue) from the inside.
In general, the more your weight and hips are forward, and the straighter your arms and legs at impact, the more accurately and further you will hit the ball.

I looked through your previous posts and couldn't find a posted video of your swing. I did see that you were thinking about getting a video camera.

For me, the single swing thought that works best for me is to extend the legs and arms as much as possible into impact maintaining my right wrist hinge with my hands in front of the clubhead (flying wedge). In order for me to have that swing thought work best for me, I first had to work a lot on getting my shoulders to rotate more vertically and get my right wrist to hinge properly on the backswing, and staying more centered over the ball while getting my hands in a deep position.

What is the feeling of right wrist hinging properly?

For me not to severly cup my left wrist, I have to feel that my right knuckles bend back to my right forearm. Some people cock their left wrist naturally so that it's flat, but if I don't hinge my right wrist toward my right forearm, I'll cock my left wrist in a very cupped position.
