Letting go with Left hand

[timm]

Brain,

I’m trying to learn to feel the lag pressure in the right index finger. In order for me to do this when my back swing starts to come to a stop I let my left hand get very soft almost letting go of the handle. Then the only way I can get back to the ball is using my pivot to drag the club into impact with the right index finger feeling as it is the only thing in contact with the club. Is it okay to loosen the grip this much in order to feel the lag pressure.

Timm...instead of doing that, try this one that Hogan promoted and Brian advocates as well:

Make full swings with your right thumb off the club.
