[@bunkerputt]

Love this. Good instruction. I think a lot of teachers and students fall into extremes like "don't cup the left wrist" or "feel is not real". But the truth is often somewhere in the middle. Your saying some cup on the follow-through, and "we learn from 30% feel" has that middle-of-the-road ring of golf truth. You're a good teacher. Thanks for what you do.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Glad it was helpful! .. thanks very much for the feedback. It’s a good post 👍 .. it’s appreciated

[@stevew9769]

Finally! Someone describing the release in a way that always felt natural to me, but I tried to fight because I thought it was wrong. Thank you! After some experimentation, a thought that occurs to me is, try to feel that the left wrist is on top of the club at the top, and under the club at the finish. Simple, and creates more of a "swooshing" sound than I've ever heard in my swing. Thanks again!

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Thanks for posting 👍

[@Hun_Power]

Hey Craig. Just wanted to say I’ve become a huge fan of your channel. You have a beautiful swing and love the in depth info. I have struggled with a chicken wing since I started played golf a couple of years ago (in addition to other problems) but this concept of the release is helping me quite a bit. The issue I was having is I was doing this at impact and losing all shaft lean. At what point do you start extending the left wrist to release it?

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Thanks very much… get yourself into the position where the pros on the follow through. Swing back .. like reverse engineering and swing through… feel like the swoosh of the club happens just after impact… Connect to different sensations… it’s one movement. It’s impossible to say that the left wrist starts to extend just at this point.

[@jonathanlambert7004]

When I take the club back I feel so many variants in this one motion they all feel right. Some days when I practice everything comes out the middle. The next day I'm back to my normal self hitting chunks thin shanks. The only positive. In the past I was always bad. If only I could bottle the good day.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

You have to know what the point of failure is the tendency that causes this. I can help you with online training. Send me your swing from your phone. There’s private messaging or a call. You receive a compressed email the same software as the KZbin video so when you watch your swing, it’s like looking at a KZbin video with you swinging on the screen. I’ll supply personalised drills and then you won’t have this problem. It’s to hard by yourself and not knowing why. worldclassgolf.com

[@WhoDunnit32]

Really good, have you looked at what the legendary Bob Toski has said about the hands and arms? Modern instructors are finally beginning to teach that you need to use your hands in your swing. However, teaching "feel" is never easy, and teaching it from a book is even harder. Yet Toski does an admirable job in this section from a chapter called -- appropriately enough -- Feeling Your Hands. "Some players might as well stick their hands in their pockets," said the great golf instructor Seymour Dunn, "for all the use they make of them." Think back to the swing in the park [Toski was talking about a child's playground swing in an earlier chapter]. Let's say it's not a swing now, but a tennis ball hanging from a rope attached to the swing crossbar. You find it at rest and you want to start it swinging. How do you begin? Do you butt it with your body or nudge it with your shoulder? Do you push the rope with your arm? Or do you set it gently swinging with an easy push of your hand so that the ball climbs and falls back before you send it on its way again? And if you use your hand, do you clench it tightly or hold it just firmly enough to start it on the natural path limited by the length of the rope? Do you stiffen your wrist or let it flex? Which will keep the ball moving without bowing or jerking the rope? In a similar way, do you "flick" your wrist slightly at the bottom of the club's arc to add speed and send it forward faster? Or do you twist your body and lunge forward to quicken the club's pace? The freedom and motion that we spoke of in Chapter 1 emanate from the hands. The hands start the clubhead moving, keep it on its natural path and sustain its centrifugal motion. It would take very little movement on your part to get that tennis ball moving at its maximum speed, and most of the movement would come from your hands. And so with your golf swing. The hands, Dunn said, are the leaders of the swing. And that surprises most golfers. You see them on the practice range struggling to lift the club with their arms or pull it with their shoulders or help it along with their legs and trunk. They twist and turn and slap and hit, clutching the club in a grip so tight their hands lose all of their natural power. "Most poor golfers," Ernest Jones said, "merely use their hands to hold the club. They don't understand that it is through the hands and fingers alone that they can influence the behavior of the club." Think about how you throw a ball or swing a racket or bat. You don't freeze your wrists; you allow them to move. But neither do you leave them "floppy" like a wet noodle, bending all over the place; rather, you tend to finish with your hands and forearms in a fairly straight line. (And just a note: If your lead wrist is bent backward after you hit the ball, you aren't letting your shoulders turn fully into your finish. The natural "pull" of the club as your wrists uncock on the downswing is to point the clubshaft straight out from you, so your shaft and arms form a nice Y-shape when seen from the front. If you don't get that, you're interfering with the natural motion somehow.) Mike Malaska did a really good vid showing how much speed the hands create! kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmizhnt7dp6jpJo

[@CraigHansonGolf]

thanks for sharing 👍👍

[@coachanderson2704]

Being doing it for many years, I learned it from Ben Hogan watching his swing and what he said about the hands and taught by Johnny Miller when he came up long time ago to do lessons. Oh yeah I'm a golf coach. This is one the best videos on YT. for people to watch and to play great golf.

Tried this today and picked up 10-15 yards of distance with every club. Thanks for sharing! Can't wait until I practice it for more than a day...

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Awesome 👍👍

[@martinkeates9816]

Total eye opener! This has changed everything - I feel that there is no limit where this could take me. Thanks Craig!

[@eddien9634]

Always played with the completely contradicted assumption from this of maintaining a flat lead wrist through impact and always always wondered why the heck this game was so difficult to make decent contact. Thank you for an excellent break down of the correct and natural way of swinging through the ball!

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Thanks 🙏 very much appreciate you taking the time to post 👍

[@DougieDoodle]

I used this before last round Game Changer!!

[@Senseisystem]

Game changer, floated for years as a 10-18 handicapper with no concept of the correct way to release a golf club… learn about getting shallow but releasing the shallowness is just as important

[@CraigHansonGolf]

nice post 👍.. thanks for sharing

[@csmith80]

I have been trying to fix a chicken wing for years, not until today that I found a good explanation of why I am doing it. Not releasing correctly. Thanks for the video. Going to practice now!

[@jungsaelee9737]

❤

[@ehtishamshami8823]

Love your explanation, Craig. I have experienced one thing (Actually r handed golfer) is during practicing r side bend in downswing as left-handed when going to original r handed then opposite left side bend is getting in downswing. Why left-handed? just experimenting here as can't develop bad habits when move to r handed. But quite opposite. Do u see such thing?

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Thanks for posting all i can say is do what works

[@kevinshoemaker5466]

Great Video.. I started watching old Austin- Dunaway-Shaghur vids this idea was prevalent. Good to know dead guys are not the only pros preaching this, and it is backed up by science. Your swing is so beautifully smooth.. 😊Thank You!

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Money! great teaching here really! 100% how the swing should be executed

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Grat to hear thanks

[@kipkapper3014]

it gives the golfer a feeling of limitless clubhead speed , it's not a roll it's a forward slap with the right hand and it happens earlier in the downswing than you would think. it's nearly impossible to come over the top with a forward right handed wrist slap.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Very interesting 👍.. thanks for sharing

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Thank you 👍

[@edwardbugby7493]

Mike Austin advocated this a long time ago. Great to see it finally being underetood!!

[@alvermeil5884]

Would the split grip drill help me improve this moment?

[@CraigHansonGolf]

I’ve never had any success with that split grip drill to be honest

[@deadgum11]

I'm learning how to do this at the moment, been playing for a year and have always had a chicken wing through release from trying to hold onto angles and guide the ball. The swing thought that's helping me at the moment is to feel like the butt of the club stops at my left pocket and allows the head to overtake, instead of moving the butt and the head to move through at the same speed

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Thanks for sharing - Good luck

[@cooperradley]

Your videos are fantastic predominantly because you focus on some extremely overlooked and misunderstood key elements to a good swing and then give great "feel" drills to try and ingrain it. For a while now I have been trying to figure out how the pro golfers always have a fully extended looking follow-through all the way to the finish. I think I have just been told how in this video. Thanks Craig. Much appreciated.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Your very welcome 👍👍

[@trentobsorne5550]

I'd like to see you in person if you're ever in New Zealand... have to try this release technique.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

👍👍… if i saw you in person i’d film your swing from both angles. Analysis it. And tell you what to do with drills and feels. That’s exactly what i do with online lessons. With swing analysis. It’s such a shame that people think you have to be live there in a lesson. You don’t. I teach tour pros online.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

SWING ANALYSIS! with Craig Hanson worldclassgolf.com/online-lessons Voted Best Online Instruction in a independent survey!

[@45PISTOL45]

Reminds me of David Duval talking about how he feels that, on the follow through, he’s tossing a club over a fence behind him with MAJOR left wrist extension

[@CraigHansonGolf]

interesting great post 👍👍.. i never heard that. Thanks for posting

[@jabjamar]

Absolutely worked and as a righty and natural drawer of the ball, I could fade by just pointing the butt of the grip slightly right of the target. Thus, the hold off release effect. Thank You for this!

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Great news .. Evidence based instruction 👍

[@orklenz]

Wow, 78 years of BAD mechanics and this change has worked overnight,,, Thanks😊

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Your welcome

[@jayvenable4279]

Because the swing happens in a second wouldn’t one need to start the release before getting to the ball therefore hitting thin or fat shots?

[@CraigHansonGolf]

experiment and practice 👍

[@hawgifan]

Best channel ever. I just hate to see these teachers saying hold your angle with right hand under and then they taya full swing and right hand rolls over just lityou are saying. You’d think they might do a frame by frame analysis of their own swing before trying to teach something else

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Thanks very much i agree 100 % with what you where saying 👍

[@Justinsgolf]

I’ve actually got a vid I took of Rory at east lake and when I went back and watched it you can clearly see his lead wrist through impact go extended like ur showing. That day I completely left the handle dragging bs alone.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

👍👍👍

[@maeu59]

Being all the example’s you show have lead wrist going into extension, why do we still hear the wrist should be bowed which is actually a weak and manipulated position. Where is the disconnect?

[@CraigHansonGolf]

it’s the ugly side of coaching. Old myths created from pictures. Old myths and comments that grow into folklore. Biomechanics and slow motion video from correct angles show the real facts.

[@Cornish_Maid]

Hi, firstly, I loved this video, and have noticed recently that this is something I wasn’t doing, despite playing golf since I was 16. (Now 66) However, since watching your video, I went to the garden to try this out, and it became immediately apparent why I don’t do it anymore. I’ve arthritis in both shoulders, and during an attempt to do this, my left shoulder ( right handed) was in agony, so it’s my body trying to protect itself, which is extremely disappointing, but obviously necessary for me to be able to continue playing golf.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

it’s hard to swing the way you want with pain i’ve had 2 hip replacements so i know how it feels

[@TNGolfin]

I just subscribed. Amazing video. This video just made it click in my brain. Thank you!!!!

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Great to hear unfortunately so many golfers just don’t understand what’s really happening. Thanks for taking the time to post 👍👍

[@TeddyCavachon]

My experience and observation of other older golfers who don’t get proper straight extension of the trail arm in the finish, which is what forces the lead wrist into extension are a lack of lateral shift at the start of their backswings and side bending of the spine as the shoulders come back to parallel. It wasn’t until I copied the side bend action of the pros seen at impact then worked backwards in the swing sequence to figure out when it should start that I got the club head force vector through impact and the finish to pull my trail arm out ram-rod straight down the line towards the target. Figure out how to extend the club in the finish and use the Vardon/Interlaced grip properly and the club force will hinge the wrists ideally automatically at the ideal time. That’s the genius of the Vardon grip, that it causes the extension of the trail wrist in the backswing and lead wrist in the finish to move into maxed out extension at ideal time to create the “tray lifting” leverage needed to control the path of the club when the change in the wrists from pulled straight thumbs-down ulnar deviation to radial deviation occurs and greatly increases to club head speed and its kinetic energy as it whips around the hands. Just try standing at address and do nothing except side bend and observe how that moves the rest of your body. Your back shoulder will drop and your hips will react by shifting laterally towards the target. The mass in your arms will also swing downward towards the ground and forward towards the target. Start doing it as the shoulders come back to parallel in the downswing and progressively increase it through impact and finish (as seen @ 12:40 in this video) and it will set-up the bio-mechanics necessary to allow the mass in the arms to change from swinging around the feet to swinging down the target line, which is what sets-up the club head mass vector being able to pull the trail arm straight down the target line. Look at the video @ 12:40 and notice how head, trail shoulder, trail and club shaft are all lined up together because the club force vector is pulling towards the camera and the side bend action creates the resistance in the trail side of the body to give the force the time necessary to pull the trail arm straight.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Very interesting thanks for posting 👍👍

[@pfox1555]

So many KZbin golf instructors do not advocate this and I don’t know why. They suggest no arm rotation and it doesn’t work for me. Thank you so much for this as it’s massively improved my ball striking

[@CraigHansonGolf]

That’s because they don’t know what they don’t really know what’s going on. These days mediocrity is placed on a pedestal.

[@jw228w]

thanks for this great video on release.i like that your practice was a full swing rather than stopping at a certain point by the wall.also behind the body view of your club going around and beneath your shoulders indicated a good swing plane on follow thru, something I will practice. John

What I do not understand: when i force this bowing of the Hands then I will close the club much earlier or faster!? What prevent me for strong pulls then?

[@CraigHansonGolf]

??? Bowing of the hands? .. I think you should watch the video again. Did you watch the fade and draw feels at the end

[@solazonevictoria1957]

This is all good but tell me how a 3 handicapper still manages to shoot good scores? eg. His release may not be that of a professional or a zero handicapper but let's say the 3 HC golfer has a great short game and his chipping and putting around the greens is superb and can potentially get him to zero. Does it really matter how his release looks? I was taught that it doesn't matter how you get there, if you can't putt or work your way around the greens then you won't become a scratch player. Just asking the questions. We seem to be living in a world where looking good matters over the results. By the way, I pick the ball clean in my iron shots and I have no problem getting to the greens but I can honestly say that my putting is mediocre. Apparently, I have to learn how to compress the ball into the ground to create a divot and that is professional standard. I was also told that picking the ball from the fairway will not help me get my HC down. In my opinion this is BS. Answers please...

[@CraigHansonGolf]

The video is about THE Release. Making people understand helping the majority of people. Showing that it’s ok that the left wrist moves into extension. The video shows the different handicaps and how the release progressively gets worse. If a release looks really bad then generally i would say that’s no good. Great players have a great release’s average golfers definitely don’t. The idea of the video is to show people what’s really happening. The PGA Tour average is 45-55 degrees of left wrist extension at P9 ..

[@alvermeil5884]

One of your most helpful videos. Keep up the great information.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

thanks very much i really appreciate it

[@davismccardle1]

So the arms fully extend, almost like they're locking out, at the point just past the ball where the divot is gathered? Interesting. It feels totally different. It's like you have to have a mindset of throwing the club without letting go of it.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

yeah 👍

[@bladerunner6282]

this guy the the professor irwin corey of golf instruction. nothing but double talk. taking about fifteen minutes in this video to say what could be said in about 30 seconds. a bad habit that most profession instructors of many different types of disciplines fall into. probably because they charge by the hourly lesson. if he really knew what he was talking about he could have done in about 30 seconds.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

[@jamesbond4633]

I accidentally stumbled onto this about 3 years ago. For some reason I just let the club go with my left wrist. I started hitting 300 yard drives which I could never do. I wasn't even hitting 250 yard drives before I started bending my wrist after impact. It felt like flipping but it wasn't. I played a round with a college player ...I am 60 years old and I was hitting it just as far as him. He gave me strange looks!! I did this for about 3 weeks and I was hitting it so hard I pulled a muscle in the middle of my back. I sort of forgot about that after I got back into golfing again after some time off. I now know that was the correct way to release. Thanks for posting this. I will be doing this again!!!

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Is this feeling something that needs to be timed at impact? Or will it automatically happen?

[@CraigHansonGolf]

There is a lot of timing in the golf swing it all has to be timed… the whole moment is dependent upon timing and rhythm

GREAT VID ..ELITE!!!!

❤❤❤Thanks for share

your welcome

[@TheGHINger]

Great video! Question: is it okay for the base of the left hand to make contact with the right wrist during this release? Or is that overdoing it? Please keep the great content coming. Cheers!

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Obviously it is i showed you in the video

[@TheGHINger]

@@CraigHansonGolf great. Thanks!

[@ginajohnson598]

Very helpful. Thanks Craig

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Thanks good luck

[@swardmusic]

Loose wrist joints!?

[@CraigHansonGolf]

😳

[@swardmusic]

@@CraigHansonGolf whatdoes that mean

[@swardmusic]

Loose wrists is everything baby!!

[@integrito3323]

Liked! Shall give this a go tomorrow and work on in conjunction with the lateral hip shift, Compression/through the wall/right knee to ball before hands techniques, each day for two weeks and let you know of my progress! Many thanks for taking the time to post these videos and educate!

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Sounds great! … thanks 🙏 for sharing

[@spizza991]

cant do any of that unless you get everythiing in the swing set up correctly before you release of course.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

thanks for posting

[@NeilWoodSales]

Hi Craig, this is really interesting and something I'll pay attention to at the range today.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

it’s something to work on for months and months 👍 to master something you need to spend hours and hours beating on your craft.

[@phdgaming8972]

But when exactly are you "releasing." AFter impact? RIGHT BEFORE impact? Also, by "releasing" arent you trying to TIME your swing which is damn near impossible?

[@CraigHansonGolf]

isn’t about improving? - everyone golfer getting to their best? .. a handicap 13 may not be able to release like me. But can release like a handicap 6 in time. The release is one continuous movement. Try the drills and practice them to create your own feels. Take a swing analysis off me i guarantee i will improve your ball striking

[@alvor2762]

Really good video. Thank you.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

no problem thanks very much for sharing 👍👍

[@awijte6656]

at 4min58 sec: what is meant with this 45 - 55 degrees pga average angle?

[@CraigHansonGolf]

left wrist extension angle

[@vincepaperclip7874]

amazing

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Thanks

[@kjohncookew4173]

Heya Craig, I'm thinking of joining back to the site this year...now when I start manoeuvring the wrists like that and the Saudis want me in a few months, do ye know if they can pay me through Revolut?

[@CraigHansonGolf]

ha ha ha ha 👍👍..

[@mibaer71]

Thank you for the video. I´m a 4,5 Hcp. I´m capable of moving / releasing my hands in the way you describe. My swing thought is cupping the leading wrist through the impact. But I´m struggeling with making decent contact with the irons on a regular basis, though. Video analysis showed that there´s not enough shaft lean at impact, so I often hit it fat or thin. What would you recommend as a solution for this? Any swing thought or drill on low point past the ball? Should I pay more attention on hand position or on body position? Thank you so much!

[@CraigHansonGolf]

I’m not sure what’s going on with your swing unless i see it? - Guessing what might be happening is not the way you want to do it believe me. Invest in your golf mate your golf is worth it. WorldClassGolf.com You get a side by side examples same as the youtube video except with your swing on the screen. WorldClassGolf.com

[@franknash6602]

Wow, I hope this isn't just a one-off but it's added 30 to 40 yards to my drives. Thanks very much I had totally the wrong idea before.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

thanks Frank

[@LaidBackGolf]

100 % all u have to do to get better at release is flip your driver upside down and swing to hear the whip sound after the point of impact zone.. not before

[@CraigHansonGolf]

thanks for posting

[@probeh5480]

Would this be considered a hand release rather than a body release ?

[@CraigHansonGolf]

No i don’t believe so .. Hovland turns his body almost more than anyone? When i ask people to give me an example of a player that had a body release .. they often say Hovland or Adam Scott. Can you give me an example of a player who has a body release?.. Does it even exist or is it a load of crap?

[@sloebone7399]

The ball is already 50 yards down the fairway at this point.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

that’s exactly why people don’t understand

[@neckupfitness3274]

Can you be too tall at set up, causing one to have a harder time dropping down in transition? I was just curious if a little more knee bend at address may help with this? Let me know your thoughts! Thanks!

[@CraigHansonGolf]

No that won’t help

[@steveng8727]

Nicklaus said in practice he would often start his swing several feet in front of the ball (your drill), he liked it so much he was tempted to actually play that way!

[@CraigHansonGolf]

thanks for posting 👍

[@jasonbreding7905]

Does this release for all swings including wedges ? I’m trying in the backyard here and I really like it. I also have a very good friend that I’ve played golf with for years and I see him doing this but I always thought he was rolling his hands but he’s not … he has been doing this and he crushes his drives

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Yes for everything except pitching

[@CallMeJackWagon]

Would you say that a proper release comes more naturally if practicing staying connected in the swing? Like with the ball between the forearms or similar?

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Not for club players… no

[@jacobr4558]

I think of a very simple reference of the left elbow pointing back at the left hip. The arms are definitely rotating the way you would with a steering wheel.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

Thanks for sharing

[@arthurford829]

Hahaha…funny how when you’re ready to hear something you’re really ready to hear it. This is for me…but only at this point in my journey.

[@CraigHansonGolf]

excellent

[@ClaroCapilla]

Thanks for this! I've been practicing to release the club better, and not artificially hold on to wrists angles. Been playing my best since I took this route and abandoned the body-driven "modern release" style. This (data-based!) concept that you're teaching is a vital addition to my practice. Will definitely incorporate this to my drills, Craig! Cheers!

[@CraigHansonGolf]

That’s great news .. well done… you know when i ask people to explain the body driven release or ask people to tell me their version of this so called Modern Release they can’t explain it or give me a example. It’s like a myth. Thanks for sharing 👍💪
