The Release Isn't Your Hands. It's Your Body | Jimmy Ballard
Jimmy Ballard explains that a proper golf swing release comes from full-body movement rather than rotating the hands or flipping the wrists at impact. By loading weight into the trail leg and allowing the entire right side and spine to release through the shot, golfers maintain their swing radius and eliminate destructive snap hooks.
A proper release is driven by the whole body moving through the shot, not by twisting or flipping the hands at impact.
Trying to hold your head behind the ball while pulling the club forces you to pull up, across, and come out of the shot.
Load weight into your trail leg and let your entire trail side, spine, and eyes move through together in a natural tossing motion.
Maintain your swing radius by allowing the lead elbow to fold down while the trail side drives through the ball.
