When you are looking for plays to actually copy and to try and find positives within their technique, one play that you could look out is Sergio Garcia and he has a super late release to his golf swing. Now, Sergio is a very flamboyant, he’s a very colorful character, but he’s also a very, very talented shaper of the golf ball. You very rarely see Sergio hit a very straight shot, either draws or fades the ball quite a lot and he also hits the ball very, very low for a modern day professional. Now, the reason for that is the ways he swings the golf club. Now, a lot of people will be familiar with Sergio, he’s been around for quite a number of years now, but he has a very wide, very full back swing position, but as he gets up to the top of the swing, the left arm and the hand start to dip a little bit low behind the body and the club drops into what’s known as a laid off position.

Now, from this point within the swing Sergio has a fantastic amount of lag angle built up between the hands and the club and as he moves down its impact. At this point in his swing, it is almost impossible to imagine that he will manage to square that clubface, but as he moves down into this point of impact he swings down and through releases the hands very, very late, releases the club very, very late and then extends the arms massively down towards the target. Now, because of this late release he’s able to hit down on the ball very, very successfully. He also manages to stir up a lot of power very, very successfully also. And for someone who is not big of frame, he’s not a huge guy he can get the ball out there very good distances with a very different ball flight to most modern professional that you see. And there are things within his swing that you can take into your own game and hopefully improve.
