In this video, you’ll see how Sergio Garcia lets his hands drop vertically at the start of the downswing. It’s a move that looks simple – unfortunately, it's not — but it changes everything.
That feeling — of the hands falling straight down — is something you want in your swing too. Because when your hands drop first, you set yourself up to accelerate naturally through the ball.
But when they move too early toward the ball, all the usual issues show up: -Early wrist release -Over-the-top path -The dreaded chicken wing
And that combo leads to inconsistent, weak shots.
Here’s how to train it: Stand in front of a mirror, make a backswing. Let your arms drop. Only when your hands reach hip height, then swing through with speed.
It takes some time… But once you feel it, you’ll never want to swing any other way. Comment “Level Up” if you want to take this move from your practice swing into your full swing — and I’ll send you a link to my coaching program, where LPGA Tour player Sandra Gal and I personally help you build it into your game.

He doesn't 'let them drop', he simply activates his left leg – more precisely his foot – to start his downswing, thus he keeps his arms, hands, and body synchronised, doesn't get over the top, and retains all the power he generated on his backswing. Watch and learn, don't jump to hasty conclusions.

Not straight down. Forward
Does he release them from the start, or does he first position them and then let them drop?
Nice path 🎉
I do this and I started chunking more. Help

Looks like the body moves down a bit and the arms follow, not sure it’s a arms purpose move
Level up
Took me forever to clue in to this simple thing.
