Thanks Craig! Incredibly helpful explanations of the release and squish the bug. I finally understand I think!

I have a question, maybe for tomorrow, or here. With chipping and pitching weight is almost all on the left side, even lifting the right leg in some of the drills. With irons all the weight is on the right, lifting the left leg in the drills. I am confused about the transition from these two. Wedge play must be somewhere in the middle. How does that transition happen? Sometimes with a wedge shot I am tempted to start all my weight on the right like in the iron drills.

Hello Sjahari. Why are you starting your weight with irons on trail foot? That is part of the squish the bug drill to help train the trail leg pivot, but standard setup still applies for normal shots. The squish the bug is a drill you need to move into the trail side to start coiling correctly in the backswing.

Thanks I guess this is what I took away from the backswing video. 4.18 where it seems as if the weight initially is on the trail leg which Is straight. He is showing both himself and tiger.

Gotcha. The weight for normal shots still needs to move into the trail side. You should be pretty balanced at setup.

Yes. Thank you. I finally started to figure that out today. The waggle helps. but if I just go ahead and swing without preparing much then for some unknown reason my body wants to land with weight on the lead leg totally against all my orders and directions. Why is that? It seems like somewhere in there is a self destructive little fellow who wants to just ruin everything. It is a disaster every time and usually I walk away with a triple. If it wasnt for that my score now would be pretty consistently in the 80's.

Most players are too stagnant. The body needs to work. When you don't have a process to wake it up, or get the engines started you usually have a misfire.

I watched this and I still don't understand when the snap of the wrist happens. Watching you it looks like the club face meets the ball before the hands do, yet I have always been taught the hands you be ahead on the ball before impact. AKA/forward shaft lean. So when does the snap exactly happen? I follow up question is when the term knuckles down happen? I guess I am confused about the whole thing, meaning does the wrist go back and forth or flip over with the logo of your glove facing the ground at some point. Help! What can I watch to clear this up?

Hello Mark. You are seeing an isolated movement. The wrists/arm movement combined with body will give you the shaft lean. Hands will be ahead at impact. The snap happens very late after GDP. Take a look at GOAT Release. Knuckles Down refers to more a lead side pattern. You don't need to aggressively rotate the lead hand to where the knuckles face the ground after impact. Take a look at 29:35 timestamp J Release Video to see hands ahead/lean.

Paul
Why would it be easy to snap the lead leg straight at impact when swinging with the trail hand only (the way you said to practice in the session), but not be able to do it when using both hands? I struggle with this and can't seem to correct it. Thank you.

Hello Paul. With 1 arm you are more than likely letting the core direct the motion. As soon as you add 2 you have to be pushing with one of them which is delaying your lead leg post. If you can post you are pushing from somewhere which isn't allowing it.
