Watch Luke Donalds swing and you will see this release works and is consistent (World number one). The closer your Arms swing to your shoulders plane, the quieter the release will become. the more seperation between the arms and body the more your hands will have to rotate through impact to square the club. This is common with amateurs who stand more upright ot the ball.
If you practise this flick-thru impact with your wrists you will never be consisent, you should be letting the bigger muscles do all the work. Good players talk about quiet hands thru impact with a hip release, the more small muscles you have working the more room for error, surely that makes logical sense.
The moment of impact lasts 3/10000 sec. You can't think about your wrist in this time. Getting the body in the correct position (holding the X factor), allowing the wrists to unhinge and the lower arms to rotate, will the create the position you are describing.
Lot of wisdom here--compare it with Cochran and Stobbs' treatment in Search for the Perfect Swing, for instance--but I would encourage those in charge here to avoid straight-line analogies like the "car wreck" scenario. The multiplication of forces outward toward the clubhead is so tied to the circular arc and the plane of the swinging arms and club that no straight-line image can be substantially accurate or do the swing justice. Aside from that, there's a lot of good here.
I researched a lot of videos on the release, this is the best. Jonathan, you have a gift for explaining things. Thanks for instruction. As for your DVD, couldn't you provide it as a download at your website? I'd be happy to pay for it.

I love how it said the ball isn't interested where your hands are after impact haha I guess that's just the perspective of an English person

I dont agree with this. Flipping the wrists is BAD!! You should come through impact with a firm, straight left wrist.
