The player seems to be describing the “Law of The Flail”. By softening the arms and elbow presumably at Address the player can swing down plane creating more Clubshaft lean and lower ball flight. Is “recoil” simply feeling the “Flail” after the ball is gone?
The last sentence, (I don't try to muscle it. The more I soften my arms and relax into it, the easier the shot becomes.), sounds like centrifugal force to me. True swinging - no hit.

I wouldn't think anyone could really do it, but if anyone can, it would be Tiger.
Perhaps - controlled quitting. Same concept as a soft lob shot, applied to a full swing.

I think you nailed it . . . more of Circle Delivery Non-Pivot Delivery deal . . . Homer said don't move anything more than necessary right . . . including the pivot. Arms shot.
I'd like to see a little context around that statement of Tiger's. The low tee shots I have seen him hit (standing a few feet away) look and sound like they were fired out of a cannon. Not exactly soft. He may be talking about some other type of shot. His normal full out motion tends to hoist the ball.
