I wish I knew How to Release The Golf Club Like This THOUSANDS Of Balls Ago

UK Top 50 Coach Alistair Davies explains how to achieve a professional release by avoiding the common 'flipping' action. Using the split-grip drill, he demonstrates how the lead arm should supinate and the trail arm should rotate to square the face while maintaining shaft lean for better compression.

• The body must slow down into impact to allow the hands and clubhead to accelerate correctly.
• A poor release involves the right arm straightening too early, which adds loft and causes weak shots.
• The lead arm should supinate (rotate) so the glove logo points toward the target area post-impact.
• The clubhead should only overtake the hands well after impact, creating a 'Frisbee' like throwing motion.
• Practice with small swings first to feel the downward pressure and shaft lean before moving to full shots.
