Hey Steve, great thumbnail lol!! I'm circling back tonight after watching this vid yesterday. I wanted to say thank you for diving a little deeper into the release. It almost feels like a personalized lesson and is absolutely genius in how you present it!! I was planning on passing on this weekends wet round in 45 degree weather but cant skip the opportunity to apply what you've presented here. I also want to say for anyone else reading, that your teaching lives up to the hype. You got me to 250 easy and with this lesson and now I believe there are more yards out there. Btw, I just turned 59 and you have me hitting some of the best shots of my 40 years playing golf. Lastly, and this applies to the seniors out there, my playing partners have been commenting on how hard I have been hitting the ball. In reality, I'm actually applying less effort and relishing the dividends!!!
hi Steve right on. thanks so much. i tried at the range today. works. paid also particular attention to keep my left arm close to my body at n thru impact.
at 79 i almost gave up in hitting my 8 iron to 120m consistently but with your generous guidance, as commented earlier by another appreciative viewer, i have gained renewed confidence and consistency. thanks again
Thanks Steve! I like this thought! For years I tried to hold off the release and it seemed only to make my left miss worse. This kind of release makes sense to me. think it’s important to remember everyone’s swing DNA is a bit different. Lately I’ve been following Min Woo Lee’s swing. He creates a ton of speed but maintains the left arm very straight through a large part of the follow through. Just interesting to see how different guys do it!
Hi Steve, Is there anything about chipping we can learn from this move? I was always told a chip is a tiny swing. I am having so many issues with chipping I was hoping there was a nugget to be learned here because I already use this swing and its amazing on so many levels, Thanks for all the great info over the years - Joe
Marcus Bell calls it the jackknife, the thought of which helps, though I like to think of it as the butterfly knife if you are familiar, as it involves the wrist more. I've been watching for years and finally improving in a big way which feels so weird.
The best way to do this is follow Moe Norman's teaching of feeling like both arms are stuck to your sides the entire swing, even the follow through. It forces your body to turn to make the swing work
Great tip Steve! Going to work on that motion today so I can use on the course tomorrow. Always appreciate the effortless power some of the tour pros exhibit. Check out Jake Knapp. Effortless power and speed!
Started doing this. Finally had someone say it looks like I am swinging really easy, but the balls are somehow going really far haha What a great video to stumble on. Am loving the drill and the feel of the release when playing.
@@Inmotion70 Been on 3 dif simulators. Seems to amaze everyone with the speed and distance. Have a 12 degree driver turned down to 11 and set to max draw. Can keep it out in front of myself ok just don't go anywhere. Can hit 5 iron 180ish??

Awesome video. This is great for us old guys. Even we can do that!

Thanks for the brilliant advice Coach Steve.
Outstanding video and advice. Thank you very much.
Informative video. When do you initiate the arm roll during the downswing to ensure correct impact? Thanks
Great advice, the arms must decelerate into impact , in order to speed up the clubhead.
Most amatures try to speed up the arms !!!!

I get snap hooks with this... maybe releasing to early with Steves move?
Absolutely true

Good video. Just curious, what is the length of your driver shaft?
Looks like a roll release vs a throw release. I thought you teach a throw release?

I swing driver 105 mph and get 195 yds distance..lol Def doing it wrong!
OMgosh how are you measuring the clubhead speed?

Too bad you’re stalling your hands through impact
