Tommy Bolt had a nice release. Release being the initiation or application of energy/stored power. Here is a photo.
While he is releasing this driver (a little early on this hole) I got a feeling he could release any club. Probably did. The shorter ones being shorter and therefore easier to release would normally be released later (in the swing and the hole) than the longer ones. COAM? The person with a 10' ladder on his shoulder turns slower than the person with a 6' ladder. Faster clubhead surface speed but slower RPMs the longer the club gets.
Although for any particular club he could vary the release point to alter its trajectory. He was that good. Tommy was subject to the laws not the other way around.

Very good OB. I can see what you are getting at there. He seems to be controlling trajectory by altering his plane as well. Not that unusual really. You can see that he is still concerned about his form and maintaining his wedges beautifully. Lot to be learnt here by those of us who have been known to become emotionally involved in the game.
