My point is that using a tennis racket makes the move childs play. Much easier said then done once that club starts loading. If you are just using your hands without a pivot or your body for support a flip will most likely occur. Our hands can only hold on so long. Of course, with a tennis racket or small pitch shot they can hold on for a very long time.

I described three techniques of maintaining a FLW and intact LAFW from P7 to P7.2+ in a previous post. Here is my post. " I believe that there are different biomechanical mechanisms of producing a drive-hold release action (DH used as a noun). One can simply keep the FLW moving very actively through impact, so that there is no flipping motion of the FLW between P6.9 and P7.2 - and the right wrist/hand is totally passive in this hand release action. Alternatively, one can both keep the FLW moving very actively through the immediate impact zone while simultaneosuly applying push-pressure with the right palm against PP#1 while maintaining a constantly bent left wrist.----- The 3rd DH-technique is used by a TGM hitter. The left arm/FLW is passive and the FLW is driven through impact by the straightening right arm applying push-pressure against PP#1 with a constantly bent ("frozen") right wrist." cwdlaw223 then replied-: " So in the end nobody really knows how one drives/holds according to Kelvin. I guess you have to purchase a lesson to find out which I can understand.
I like Jeff's 3rd explanation in post 17." The 3rd explanation only applies to TGM hitters. Most professional golfers are swingers, and they therefore likely use technique number 1 - One can simply keep the FLW moving very actively through impact, so that there is no flipping motion of the FLW between P6.9 and P7.2 - and the right wrist/hand is totally passive in this hand release action.Here is a diagram showing how it works. The red line represents the left arm, the blue dot represents the FLW, and the green line represents the clubshaft. At low point (roughly at P7.1) the left arm and clubshaft are in a straight line relationship - image 1. Image 2 shows the left arm and clubshaft are still in a straight line relationship at P7.3 and the left wrist is still flat. That happens because the FLW moves along the hand arc path at the same rpm as the clubhead moves among the clubhead path. That is easily accomplished from a biomechanical perspective and it doesn't require any unusual amount of strength. Most pro golfers use that technique. I have shown capture image photos of Dustin Johnson and Jamie Sadlowski and Dominic Mazza using that technique. Here are two other examples. Heath Slocum David Toms I have rarely seen a pro golfer use BM's piƱata release technique, where the left wrist bends between P7 and P7.2. How many PGA tour golfers have you seen using that after impact flipping technique? Jeff.
