So I had this issue of holding my wrists upon impact which pushed or sliced my balls (still do every now and then lol). Releasing the clubhead squares the clubface to the ball. Adds some distance as well. Let a pro explain it in detail. ▶ this video Clay also has a good lesson on stable fluid spine. Something that may help with the forward lean. Check it out.

Do this and follow this guy on YT. He has a ton of videos dedicated to a straight arm release, which is both of your arms being dead straight after contact pointing about a yard in front of the ball before your lead arm begins to fold. ▶ this video
