A series of photgrahs actually...that would be the benfit of high speed film.
Although when one sees a still of Vijay or Phil about two frames post impact and the left hand is totally off the grip, even a toatlly uneducated individual of the game should be able to figure out the clubhead has been flipped.
Listen, if you dont want to accept this stuff..go with what you think is right.
Clearly you are resistant to learn about this, so I am going to bow out and not waste anymore time on someone who is stubborn on this fact.
Just keep on thinking what you want, no harm no foul.
We clearly agree on release being a matter of physics. We agree the great players hands release through the unhinging of the wrists caused by the physics of the golf swing. You have conjectured that certain players try to get even more clubhead speed by actively applying hand action through the wrists.
You suggest I am unwilling to learn, yet you ignore my suggestion of a method to prove or disprove your conjecture. Instead, without reference to my suggestion you offer high speed photography.
My response to that is that you are trying to prove something about a very dynamic process with static photographs that use hand position. Now if you were able to use the known time between pictures to calculate velocities and acceleration, you could use the calculations to say something about the conjecture. However, IMO static hand positions in photographs show nothing.
Vijay's right hand coming off the grip has been used as further evidence of handsy or flipping. To me this is totally counter intuitive. To me the hand has come off the grip, because the physics of the situation has exceeded a velocity where the hand can keep up. If the hand can't keep up, how can it be actively adding clubhead acceleration. I would suggest you try and experiment. Make a golf swing where you actively throw the clubhead through the ball with enough right hand force to make the club leave your right hand. My conjecture is that you will find that your shots will travel shorter (and of course be wilder directionally), than they will when you let the natural physics happen in your normal swing.
I'm sure that if you happen to manage people, I would hate working for you, as it seems only yes men need apply.
