I'm curious about your reasoning on forward pressing irons though. I've always hit center of my body with all clubs. just recently started moving my irons forwards a bit after a few lessons and youtube videos. It has helped me be able to consistently strike down on the ball further instead of topping it.

My next routine is going to be working on keeping my right hand downwards a little more so I can't see my fingertips and allow my thumb to align with the shaft easier.
When you say forward press, I assume you are doing that thing where people lean their upper body over their front leg a bit just before taking their backswing. You won't see pros doing this ... they shift the ball relative to their stance. Don't mess with your swing. Try moving the ball back in your stance a bit. Hit 10 balls or so and then move the ball back just a little and repeat. See if that makes a difference.

Another thing is keep those elbows in. The left elbow flaring out can really affect ball contact.
