Hi Craig/Chuck, for the first time today I felt the goat code release with my wrist, it felt effortless, my lower body being quiet. It was essentially like playing golf on Chill mode. However, still a long way to go. Just a question - Although after definitely preferring the feel of the trail side throw (still in very early stages) I hit it further when using the Dead drill mechanics feel. For example, my ball speed with my driver was 150mph ish with the goat release and when using the Dead drill it’s around 165mph. I feel like I’m just missing that extra power with the goat code trail side wrist throw, I’ve been trying to work on the J release but it’s still not quite getting the power I know I can get. Maybe I need to leverage some more lower body to get more snap with the trail wrist. If I could swing at 160+mph ball speed with my driver with the goat release I would never swing another way. Is this common to be slower at first, when using the goat release to do you guys still feel something with the lower body to give that extra snap and whip through? Thanks in advance, very good instruction :flagpin:

Hello S G. Thank you for the compliments. There is definitely a learning curve at first with the newer trail side mechanics but you need to start understanding speed early in the development. I would think since you are coming from DEAD that you may be moving lateral too much so the arms are chasing. You need the trail side drive for the speed. Take in combo the Squish the Bug Part 3 and Waggle Drill. Both should make the lower half snappy and allow the club to have serious whip.
