For the down swing in hitting the right index finger and thumb push down plane and the left index finger and thumb push up plane. The thrust from the right arm straightening is added and over powers the up plane push of the left index finger and thumb and provides the hitters release. This action also makes a slow start for the hitter a piece of cake.
i've tried this during a few weeks, i got some ok results with driver but started to shank irons like a mad man, back to the drawing board i guess!
