Because it's seeking an in-line condition with the shoulders I'm assuming any movement away from this would constitute release? Granted, there's an optimal release point (would like to discuss this) that produces maximum power but I'll stick w/ anything from the in-line condition is release.
It looks like you're giving the finger to the Augusta National?!?

The release of #4 is defined as the moment the left arm begins to overtake the shoulders, and the release of #1 is defined as the moment the right elbow begins to straighten, which indicates the third side of the triangle is lengthening.
Trick questions -
Why does #4 release precede #1 release instead of both occuring simultaneously?
Under what circumstances would #1 release after #4 instead of simultaneously?
