The trail arm is the engine behind your ability to delay the release<\/strong> and arrive at impact with the shaft leaning forward — the hallmark of elite ball strikers. When the trail arm straightens too early, the club releases prematurely, costing you both club head speed<\/strong> and ball compression<\/strong>. Keeping the trail elbow tucked and driving it toward the lead hip as you transition into the downswing plane<\/strong> is what produces that crisp, compressed contact.
