The ability to keep your LEAD ARM STRAIGHT in the golf swing has a direct influence on how successfully you manage the radius of your swing, and RADIUS MANAGEMENT = CONTACT CONSISTENCY!
So many golfers are plagued by arms that flex too much throughout the golf swing which leads to issue with CONTACT, CONSISTENCY and LOSS OF POWER.
And unfortunately, despite knowing that your arms are flexing too much, simple "trying to keep the lead arm straight" isn't going to fix your problems any time soon, and that's because the REAL cause of your flexed LEAD arm, is your excessively flexed TRAIL ARM. That's right, the reason you have poor arm structure is the fault of your TRAIL arm - you've been looking in the wrong place all this time!
The Golfing Machine Book explains this phenomenon as "extensor action".
The relationship between your hands on the grip is called EXTENSOR ACTION. Since your left arm is kept straight by the outward pressure of your right palm against your left thumb, the length of the radii created by your arm and the club remains the same. Therefore, your club must inevitably make good contact with your ball. Extensor action joins the hands together and allows the two arms to work together. As long as a steady outward pressure against the thumb is maintained, the left arm will remain straight and will be tension free, from address to the top of the back swing, returning to impact.
