Having the correct release pattern for your swing is CRUCIAL for being a good ball; striker. In this video I run through the key variable that tells you what release pattern you need, the two main types or release patterns and 3 keys you need regardless of the release style you have.

Eureka moment indeed!!! I have been confused by seeing conflicting videos and finally a video that talks about both release!!! What are pro's and con's of each release type? From my personal experience, I find roll release gives me faster club head speed, but mishit has great dispersion... The underhand throw release provides better smash factor, but slower club head speed...

Tbh I wouldn’t see it as pros and cons. See it as what clubface position do I have (naturally have too) at p6 in the downswing. That will tell you the release you need for your natural pattern

Thanks for explaining the "underhand throw release". It explains the "new move" through impact most of the tour pros use now without snap hooking the hell out of it by releasing it properly. I was working on the "DJ wrist move" or slightly closed club face but I was using my "old, toe up, toe up" release and experienced some severe snappers. This helps a ton!

Very interesting and informative video. I fall into the roll release category but I have been trying unsuccessfully to swing like a a body rotation release golfer. I have been trying to improve compressing the ball. My shots are going far to the right with the body rotation release method. I will stick with the roll release method and work on impact and ball compression using my natural roll release swing. Thanks for this really informative lesson Giles.

Great video! What I have trouble with is how much to release when. When I leave the release quite late I gain an incredible amount of speed and can hit my irons as much as 20 yards further. However, I feel like it’s ‘flippy’ and inconsistent with face direction. When I release a bit earlier I don’t get the same speed or shaft lean but it is was more consistent.
@Gilesgillgolf
@Gilesgillgolf Жыл бұрын
I’d be looking earlier and see why that is… is your shaft steep, do you stall out, is your clubface too open?
@Rich-in6ds
@Rich-in6ds Жыл бұрын
@@Gilesgillgolf it feels like it is just a deliberate choice as to whether to gradually release the club over the course of the downswing or to hold the angle and release it late but fast. The former keeps the face more in line with the path for longer but doesn’t create the ‘whip’ of speed through impact.

@Gilesgillgolf
@Gilesgillgolf Жыл бұрын
Depends on their clubface position. Rahm is more closed so will be more of a body release. From memory tiger isn’t as closed so he’s a little bit more roll release. But at the same time it doesn’t matter. What matters is what you do

Great videos you release, keep them coming! Would you say one release pattern is easier to preform and has a better chance at delivering a nice square compressed club face to the ball more often? One release has lower longer ball flight and one release tends to be higher shorter ball flight type thing?
@Gilesgillgolf

Great question Dean! It all depends on your clubface. If you can change your clubface I might say a body release produces a flatter flight but in all honesty playing with your natural clubface is the best bet

Hi Giles, from this video I think I need to do the under hand throw release. However this seems to be kind of the opposite of what you explain in the video to get rid of chicken wings, where you suggest to have an outside rotation with the lead hand, which would naturally bring the the right hand on top. I guess the two are alternative moves and I need to try them and see what works for me? Or can the two moves work together? Thank you so much, you are the best coach!

For a body release you need the face square to closed so that trail hand needs to be on top to allow this to work

Being fearful of “flipping” the clubhead, which according to nearly all golf instruction is a near felony, my overriding downswing thought was to hold off release in an attempt to gain “shaft lean.” As a result I blocked my way around the course. While I managed to maintain a single digit hdcp I never created any real compression, ergo, a short hitter. Finally out of frustration I determined to release the right hand earlier, as in my initial downswing move. Adding to that the thought of full left wrist extension and guess what, no flip. Remembering a John Jacobs drill, swinging with my feet together I find myself in perfect balance at the finish. This tells me I am doing something correct. Giles, I am aware I talking about an isolated movement and there is more to consider, but without this movement I realize I will never reach my full potential.
