Golfing Myth # 2You are here: home / Golfing Myth # 2 ​ 03-Apr-2018 | Travis Harrison Myth Number 2 – “Keep your left arm straight.” (or vice versa if you’re a left hander). When and if this phrase is taken too literally, the “keep your left arm straight” chant introduces us to our old friend tension, to the swing – and that is not ever good. A more beneficial phrase would be, “Do not allow too much bend in your elbow”. The most common reason of a left arm that becomes bent before contact with the ball is arms and hands endu********* ack swing after the shoulders have stopped rotating. In such an example, it's practi********* completely straight. This flaw classically appears in players who are over-swinging – attempting to hit the ball with more force and with the extra arm action. A beginner will get themselves in to big trouble when they attempt to extend their backswing through bending their left arm. In its place, a backswing should be created by a complete shoulder turn – ideally, the shoulders should be perpendicular to the target line at the top of the backswing on a fill shot. If you’re flexible enough to be able to reach this point, maintaining a straight (but not a stiff) left arm should be relatively easy.
