Non-automatic (manual) uncocking of the left wrist for golfing ease and low scoring

[innercityteacher]

Hi guys! If I come to my top and then use my right forearm to push down plane on my left thumb to uncock my left wrist, after a bit of a slide or brace of the left leg, is that hitting?

Daryl has helped me identify that motion as a "sweep release."

The ball flight seems very consistent depending on the hinge. Sometimes the distance is exceptional; sometimes it is not, but the simplicity of the motion is inspiring and confidence building.

If I simply tilt my left shoulder up, my back (right) shoulder spins and my left wrist uncocks. I'm sure that is a swing.

Is the other a hit, though it seems to involve a lot of rolling/uncocking of the left wrist. Is that what Yoda means by 'preparing to roll on that line' with either the swing or hit?

In our Memorial Day Tournament, I shot a 44/43 on our two toughest nines. I have never been that consistent. I won a closest to the pin hole on a 210 yard par three, uphill and into the wind, using my driver to 22' 9", dead behind the flag. I got the birdie putt to the whole but it failed to break left and went by 2'. With that uncocking of the left wrist, I got to the point of expecting my shots to be online.

How do I max out the distance of the motion?

Thanks in advance.
