So what and when you should feel it depends on your desired stroke pattern. It's your choice basically.

Thanks BerntR,

I'll stick with the sequenced release first. One of the things is that commentators continue to talk about LATE release- The Clampett article talks about late release and lables a sequence element release with the hands already down at the pocket and the right arm 3/4 straight.(see the picture labled release) TGM said that the left wrist is cocked and uncocked ( Accumulator #2 release) by the bending right arm and the right arm is part of release and is thrown into impact. That would make release start at the point the right arm starts to straighten. The frame labled release would be the intermediate point of the 2-3 sequence where #3 becomes dominant. If a golfer trys to force the hands deep before release he gets cocking of the right hand. This may look good and as HK said is hard to detect but is throwing the club at the ball. What do you think?? I would like to fix that because I think I(and many others) "TRY and get late release" and that is wrong Per. TGM
