Is there any way that a person can largely have free will, but maybe in certain circumstances there is a force unknown to them that corrals them to particular decisions?

In theory, perhaps. But in practice, it seems to be the other way around. We are indeed "corralled" by forces beyond our ken, yet we are free to run around inside the fence. And occasionally, we might jump the fence to run free as the wind. :grin:
