Great tip Paul and one that we have heard from you fairly consistently but have to give you kudos for using all available video sources to make your point….very creative!
Paul,
In order to keep the lag in the downswing and hold it, i do not understand how you are able to do that without uting thight wrists. Do you loosen up just before you release the club ? In that case I fond it difficult to do that in just the right moment. You are always speaking about loose wrist so could you please explain.
You are going to get lag by manually working on it. Once you have done so you will then be turning our arms off and the club will be lagging on its own. If you just turn your arms off without working on this I highly doubt you will be doing it exactly right because most average players do not fully let go with their arms. Funny how a little kids lags it perfectly without saying a word about it. If you want to keep your arms as powerless as a little kid you will get the lag without thinking about it.
Paul, in this drill you do not show the rollover of the wrist. At what point in our swing should the wrist release be completed. Is the release point the unhinging of the wrist, the rollover of the wrist or both.
The wrists actual start to re-hinge at the release point not just after the ball is hit. But I know people will never do this. So doing the roll over drill will get them unlocked. Then you stop thinking about it as you start thinking about the coil and uncoil to power your swing. If try to re-hinge after this point you will always do it later than you think. So work on the roll over drill constantly.

Thank you as always for the great tips.
