Unless you're playing golf one handed the role of the arms in the swing they do two slightly different things not dissimilar to baseball that you've got your lead arm control in the radius you drag the lever or the bat along and then let it go and then the trail arm extends. Well that's very much the same case in golf. When we're swinging back we need the leader to extend to stay fairly straight fairly extended from here. Then as with swinging down into the golf ball you'll notice my trail arm is bent it's storing leverage and just like throwing something you then going to get rid of those levers. So as I'm swinging down now and approaching impact you'll notice my late trail arm is still bent and then through impact both arms extended. So just after impact and here into the follow through this is where both arms get straight in the golf swing.
A little tip for you I'd like you to think of what I call separate the heads think of the club head and your head post-impact getting as far away from each other as possible. Many of you will be told to keep your head down you'll be trying to stay here and in doing so you'll get the dreaded chicken wing, and they're showing your arms past your body. What I'm trying to get you to feel is your body and arms and club stay together. Notice how my arms look long so if you've got long arms you're going to get a better strike so remember separate the heads. The head is far away from each other you do that even to get a lot more power in you strike. Lets give it a go so I'm going yo do a small stroke first of all, and separating the heads driving those arms away. If I can get those arms extending and then feed that into my full swing. I'm going to get a nice late hit on a good impact correct extension to the ball my striking will really improve.
