Play Better Golf - Straight Left Arm

I want you to go and search out some footage of a tour professional golfer. When you look at their swing, I’d like you to note how straight their left arms are at address and take note of the difference in height between the left and right shoulders. 

Most professional golfers have their own swing idiosyncrasies, but you will not see any of them without their left arm straight at address.

When you hold a golf club, your left hand sits above your right on the club and this creates a difference in shoulder height.

Having a straight left arm at address helps you to maintain width at the top of your backswing, which in turn generates more power and results in consistently better golf shots.

Many players struggle with the difference in shoulder height at address as the brain does not like this position and will naturally want to create a balance in your shoulder level by bending your left arm. 

When this happens at address, it is almost impossible to maintain width throughout your swing.  The amount of bend in your left arm will increase and decrease making it very difficult to return the club head consistently onto the golf ball.

Spend a little time in front of a mirror at home working on your set up and you will be amazed at just how much a simple change can improve your game.
