point of letting go matters
I guess if you let go of the club as the club approaches a point where it points at the target thats where is will go. On one of his DVD's Greg McHatton demo's letting go at a point where the club face will stick in the wet ground behind the ball with the shaft foward leaning. I always thought that was really cool. Obvious at a point where the hands are uncocking on plane so the face is on plane and will penetrate the ground.

Fred Shoemaker ...

That's where I read it the first time. It's beeen a few years since I read his stuff but I really liked it. He was the first golf swing writer that I read who integrated the technical technical aspects and the mental aspects.

The part I liked best was his emphasis on monitoring and awareness instead of fixing while you're playing. If your monitoring system is working, the probles seem to disappear as they surface. If you try to fix the problem you're heading for a high score.

His approach really goes well together with Homer's educated hand and hands' monitoring.

He hit a bad shot and went to send the offending club toward the green. It was a hot day and between a wet glove and tacky new grips, the club came twirling backwards over his shoulder and went right by my head!

When he looked back, he was as white as a ghost! I'm sure he thought I was going to be laid out on the ground. I expect I was pretty white, too!

Lesson: know where to stand when clubs are going to be thrown! (and apparently, the roof isn't safe either...)
