Hello everybody! I just found this thread when doing a Google search, and I wanted to just add my "2 cents". I have watched the video and the bonus footage, and I have to say that what Mr. Ayers is saying does work...at least for me. The essential thing for me is to get the intent right, then make sure you do the winding in correctly. After that you just lift, or flip, the club to your personal hand position and then pivot toward the target (no hip sliding, or back flexion). If you have done these things, the club really does release sort of on its own.
