I'm new to the system, however, I've gone through many of the videos, and I'm confused with what the hands/wrists do in the golf swing. One video talk's about moving the handle from one side to the other by releasing the club which creates incredible club head speed. Examples of releasing the club: Tigar, Vijay, and Jack. In one of the goat videos, where its talking about extension in the backswing to contracting (not sure if that's the correct verbiage) getting the arm pit facing out to the camera and keeping the arm pit facing you as long as possible. To me that's the opposite of releasing. Can someone clarify this? Thanks John D

Hello John. The club still releases in both versions. I would take a look at the Endless Conveyor Belt Video. You still sequence the body. The difference is in how you feel it either being driven by the core and trail arm vs a little more lateral motion and the post releasing the leverage (lead side release). The GOAT is more pivot driven.

Hi Criag, I went through the conveyor and squash the buy videos which were very helpful. Thank you! I do have a question regarding your thoughts regarding hitting cut shots. I know you hit the ball with little to no curve, but there are times where I may need hit a cut shot. What adjustments would I need to make in order to produce a cut?
