I am pretty much a swinger with all my clubs these days and i don't employ sweep loading that much i know.

However i'm just curious if i use random or snap? I feel i should learn to help development as both a player and a "some what" instructor these days lol.

Can someone describe the main differences between random and snap for me? In my swing, i allow the right arm to cock the left and i feel a gradual cocking the entire way up but i don't really "feel" the "full wristcock" until parallel. I then drag load into impact and it "feels" like that i wait very long to release and i just let it happen naturally.

Seems like i'm a random loader to me. When i try to "snap load" i feel it involves too much timing and i also don't like the "feel" of downcocking on the downswing.

Thanks for the help
Jim,
I have a little different perspective I think. Snap has been defined as 'the last instant' but who defines that? Where does that blurry line between snap and random sweep become clear?

Perhaps the last sentence - the delayed snap of the club into position is the real key? Maybe???

Just a thought.
