imo the reason we get better distances when it feels like we didn't make much of an effort at all is because we were loose and relaxed. if you want to try and retard your release as much as possible, my suggestoing would be the death grip on the club.

to test this out, flex your legs as hard and you can and try to jump, my guess is you won't get very high. even though when you jump you are using quite a bit of muscle. how doesn't that work? you are so relaxed yet use the muscle to the fullest extent? i am not a kenisiologist so i have no clue. but i beleive it is said that the people with high amount of fast twich muscles jump high maybe it is the same with golf.

the FT muscles, that is an interesting theroy. i think i might do some research on that


but i digress, even though you may have crazy FT muscles you still need proper technique. its like having a lamborgini and not knowing how to drive a manual, you aren't going to get very far very fast and the guy in the 4 cylinder geo metro could still beat you to the finish line if you don't know how to use that V-12 properly.

so short answer technique
