   Hi Paul

   Thanks for the tip. I’m clear about point 1(shaft lean) and point 3(transferring weight).

   With regards to your second point about ensuring we have correct wrist release. I just want to make sure I was understanding your point correctly. As in your previous tips or when you refer to the ‘un- restricted hinge’, you show us this drill where we drip down, and we have our butt end pointing behind the ball in the half backswing, and pointing back at the ball at the half follow through. However in this tip regarding lowering the trajectory, I got the impression you DIDNT want us doing this? Did I misunderstand? It seemed like you were saying you DIDNT want our butt end pointing towards the balls before and after impact, but instead have the butt end pointing towards our belly and moving horizontally before and after impact with the club head having a flatter path?

   Was I right in assuming this is what you meant?

   Thanks
   Andrew

     Andrew,

     That drill with the butt is to get someone’s wrists loosened up. The club does not release in a good swing until after the ball is hit.

     Watch:

     By doing this drill you are unlocking your wrists. If you couple loose wrists to a rotating center you will still have lag upon impact. Then the club gets to the release point. So no I do not want you to immediately hinge it. That is a drill to unlock the wrists. If both arms so not stretch out fully in a golf swing until after the ball is hit it means the club would be descending upon impact. Most people are hitting which tightens the wrists and adds loft.

     So keep loosening and keep working on the rotation of your body. If you would like to work on the grip down drill that’s a good thing as well as working on the release point.
