GolfPro,
You can eliminate any possibility of left forearm pronation by grasping your left lower forearm firmly with your right hand - make sure that you firmly stabilize the left forearm in order to eliminate any left forearm rotary motions when you perform the experiment.
Here is another practical experiment.
Get your left arm extended in front of you with the left arm straight-in-line with the left shoulder socket. Pronate your left forearm so that the back of your left hand is parallel to the ground. Now fully extend your fingers. Then radially deviate your left wrist (to mimic left wrist upcocking). Finally, dorsiflex your left wrist while keeping the fingers extended. Do you not have more mobility in the direction of dorsiflexion on the radial side (thumb side) relative to the ulnar side (pinkie side) that will enable you to change the angle of the back of the left hand relative to the back (dorsum) of the left lower forearm so that the back of the left hand is not perpendicular to the back of the left lower forearm?
Jeff.

Jeff. I can dorsiflex my left wrist at the top of the backswing without any other movements and not have the shaft cross the line. It's just the truth. Thanks Tom and Jeff for your input.

You wrote-: "I can dorsiflex my left wrist at the top of the backswing without any other movements and not have the shaft cross the line."
So can I - it's easy to prevent the clubshaft from crossing-the-line during the left wrist dorsiflexion motion and it's much easier if one has less radial deviation of the left wrist at the end-backswing position.
Jeff.
