Experiment, but only when training. I don't know if it's good to do on a round. It's not good to do in a competition:-)
This truism comes from my latest experience. I had a discussion about a swing and I was sure that it's nothing like shopping wood with an axe - just an up and down movement with my arms.
I tried it at the range - from my perfect backswing - I closed my eyes and let my arms drop -> result was a square contact to the ball!
It was better on the video when shooting my face, but at the link is also a version shot from the target line. SWING
I don't know how well the feeling of dropping my hands can be seen on the video, but for my it is important. In near future I will try to actively do the movement - not just let my hands go - this way I will be hitting the ball - and straight down the target line!
By the way - I was dead sure that the idea of "Pulling" with my hip and dropping my arms would not work! BUT it did. I am clad that I had the courage to experiment.
