Upper Core Players release the earliest, about a foot in front of the ball.

Upper core players release the earliest in the golf swing. The trail arm straightens about a foot past impact. Mid-Core players release later. Still want to hit the ball with a little forward shaft lean. Have to understand release point and how you deliver your arms, hands and wrists and that club to the back of the ball. Former PGA Tour Player, Larry Rinker, has written an ebook on the Upper Core Swing based on Dr. David Wright’s Wright Balance with three swing models. Upper, Mid and Low Core.
