DON’T Hold On… Let It Release!

PGA instructor Milo Lines demonstrates how to stop holding onto the golf club through impact. By rotating the body out of the way while keeping the trail arm under, golfers can allow the club to naturally release for freer, more consistent shot-making.

• Avoid holding onto the clubface through impact, as it restricts natural swing motion.
• Keep your right (trail) arm under while turning your body through the downswing.
• Allow the momentum of the swing to release the club naturally around your body.
