Truly amazing OB and very humbling when you consider the basic tools he was using and the fact that he was very much working alone.
VJ went on to say that in his new impact he is now "on top of the ball, not behind it." and "Since my approach angle is so much better, my move through the hitting zone is devoid of compensations like leaning back or letting go of the club with my right hand (although you’ll still see me do that from time to time). Now I’m more on top of the ball—my head is really into the shot. More important, I’m in better balance, which has had a positive impact on my release and finish positions......I never stop turning. A lot of amateurs hit the ball and then stop. Notice how the clubshaft points to the middle of my chest here in my release." (At Follow-through) "If you're guilty of stopping, the shaft will point somewhere else."

VJ appears to be in agreement here with Homer's observation that ' “Release” can well be considered a continuing action including Impact and Follow-through'
