It is the Hands that we Swing and the #3pp that we direct, Trace with. Swinging the Clubhead will always promote a Sweep Release. A throwing of the clubhead at the ball.

Swing the Hands, let the Club go where ever it wants to go in the hands. The Hands are just clamps.

Release is when the Palm of the Left Hand comes off the Inclined Plane. Put your brain in your Hands, in your Pressure Points. Play by feel.


What was it Homer said? "If you're not getting all you should out of your shots , despite your knowledge of alignments. STOP MONITORING THE CLUBHEAD AND MONITOR THE HANDS!" Something like that.

Thanks But:

I think you missed my point.

I was talking about using a plane board or a rail. With either a "proper" swing the hands are so far down plane that the shaft does not reach the board or the rail until almost release for a plane board and after release for the rail but to SEE-LOOK, LOOK, Look- the shaft ON the plain BOARD or RAIL requires an early sweeping motion.

While here- Sweet Spot- Where it is and how and why it gets on the ball begs some theoretical discussion.
Try this- In the dark, have someone hand you clubs with a non indexed grip and without plum bobing them find the sweet spot face orientation 100% of the time.
You may be surprised. Watch the trick shot artist, always has an "address routine" for locating...??
