First, I want to say how much I enjoy reading everyone's post here and what a great attitude this forum has. I finally hooked up with a TGM instructor and also picked up the little yellow book. Went from shooting in the 110's to shooting in the high 80s. Made me a believer.
To my question:
On the downswing, what does a proper release feel like in the hands? Should you feel a "releasing" sensation in your hands or should there be lack of any feeling? I ask this because I was working on my swing last night playing around with different releases and realized when I was trying to do an automatic snap release, I actually couldn't feel a release per se. It was just this constant momentum with no change in feeling direction or acceleration (that I could tell). But sometimes I would try to whip the club around to get a bit more club head speed and feel a release. That's what I thought a proper release should feel like. Now I'm starting to think this lack of feeling in the hands is what a proper release should actually feel like?
