release

[moreira85]

i hit a lot of shots with the face open where the ball is pushed right or where I pull the ball where it starts left and keeps going left. When i swing i never feel the clubhead really release and have kind of a chicken wing like i am hoding on. The woosh in my swing happens after the ball. Should the woosh happen right at the point of the ball and have the feeling that the club head is exploding at impact like the club is trying to pass by you?

when i'm swinging i'm not really trying to hear a 'woosh', but when i feel like i'm not releasing, i just try to keep my back to the target a little longer which in turn allows my hands to catch up.

Obviously the "whoosh" would be the fastest point of your swing and you want that to happen at impact. When I'm not releasing my driver it's because my hands are trapped behind my body. I try to shorten my backswing which helps me keep my hands in front of my body during the swing.
