Are you referring to the one where he places the club behind his back and then slides his hips to his left while his head stays over his right foot?
That's the one.

That move has been a very hard one for me to achieve. I chronically lunge my upper body on the dowswing, throwing my club away, and ending up in a sickening flat right wrist bent left wrist position with the club leading the hands at impact. I am 48 and the photographs of my impact look the same now as when I was 18.

How do you get out of that?
I hear you.
A lot of basic and acquired motions with focus on the wrists (and the wedges) help. And so does the Taly.And then I'll let Daryl take it from here...

Very S-L-O-W pivot practice without a club. During the Backstroke your weight shifts to the right. Draw your right hip away from the target line when doing so without moving your Head. During the Downswing, your goal is to keep the weight shift ahead of your Hands. Don't move the weight to the left all at once. Do so gradually with the weight pulling your left hand along with it. Even though you may initiate the Downswing by planting your left Heel, the weight shift should be gradual during the Downstroke, and not a Hop To The Left. Hop to the Left is for "The Rocky Horror Picture Show". Stay in your Posture. Learn the Mechanics and remember the "Feel".
Ok. Can you do the Drill with your Head Centered in your Stance and only move your hips as needed?
Isn't this one of the MacDonald Drills with the Club behind your back?
...technical knowledge of TGM as Mr. Tomasello did. I'm not criticizing either of you by saying that, imho. Mr. Tomasello says in the tape that "lowering the right shoulder automatically shifts the left hip..."
It's toward the end of the film. With a wide stance, my heads not moving. When I drop my back shoulder, and following the club head with my eyes (in the tape) I wind up on my left side fully. If I keep my back leg anchored ala Moe, then my weight is back until the club drags me forward.
Good/no good?

(Delivery Line prep. Delivery Line Uncocking prep. Delivery Line Roll prep!!!!!!!!)
("That is a far different motion than the hitter's carry back and drive through.)
So RFT up and Right Forearm Drive Through, like a clap or slap. Very easy to step into! Time to go to the indoor range!

Kevin Carter, happiness surround him and all he knows, sent me this clip:
I only counted 39 Kellian Archetypes ripped off by Mr. McClean, but I'm a newbie. If you want to see how great Lynn is by comparison with a "popular' teacher, watch the clip.
Oh and Brad Faxon had "too much lag" and "we just don't teach a method at our school."
