The Real Reason You Bend Your Arms (it's NOT what you think!)

- Keeping your arms straight in the golf swing is a basic skill demonstrated by the vast majority of good players. Conversely, the poorest golfers will often demonstrate the most flexed arms through the swing, leading to inconsistent contact and loss of power.
Simply put, the arms and the club form the radius of the swing, and a swing with a more constant radius (arms straight) should repeat and perform more effectively and consistently than a radius that is constantly changing throughout the swing (arms bending).
To improve your arms structure in the golf swing - which means keeping the lead arm straight in the backswing, and the trail arm straight in the follow-through - you need to learn it is about more than JUST the arms themselves!!!
Poor arm motion is almost ALWAYS a result of poor body motion. Learn to move the body correctly, and the arms will often improve without any conscious thought at all.
This video will explain how to move in the backswing and follow-through to promote the STRAIGHT ARMS that everyone in searching for, but seems so elusive for some many golfers out there.

Rob is simply the best instructor period ! Everything is explained so clearly , after doing this drill my ball striking and consistency has gone thru the roof. Thank you Rob :)
yes the best instructor, for sure !
Thank you for taking the time to post and educate! Much appreciated! Liked! Already subscribed!
Incredibly well done video! Super helpful. Thank you Rob.
Finally a great explanation and lesson. Thanks
Another extremely helpful video, Rob! Thank you! I’m excited to try this exercise!
Another great video. I really enjoy your videos and how you explain everything..
Great video! This is exactly what I need to work on! Thanks!
Rob you really do such a great job with your very clear and calm explanations and demonstrations. Thanks as always.
Great instruction! Your commentary on what causes these movements to take place is priceless as it's not always apparent to recreational players like us.
Very helpful ! Thanks
Rob, You are so articulate and absolutely the best out there. I would like to schedule a few sessions when I visit Singapore next time . Thank you!
I have recently been practicing by doing exclusively the arms straight drills, combined with towel under armpits, structure ball etc. A step change in solid contact, it's just so important. Even helping my early extension. Thanks Rob.
Thanks for the info. well appreciated..
Excellent explanation, demonstration, and recommended drill Rob on how to keep the arms straight in the golf swing! I have been working on this situation for a while now together with maintaining a proper body rotation. I definitely know when one or the other does not occur! Good Job Rob! Keep up the good work!
Good to see this again Rob. You always give clarity to the moment. In my view your drill-"Swing hard-stop quick" mirrors what this teaches. Thanks and stay safe.-Russ
Thanks for addressing this issue. Flying elbows has been the bane of my golfing. It affects every club from driver to putter. I compound the problem by leaning onto my back foot to be able to swing through.
thanks Rob great video !!
Thanks again for a great video
...keeping my arms straight thru the impact zone is something I continue to struggle with....even though it's often my last thought before I take my swing....I am definitely going to give this practice drill a try ...thanks again Rob !!!
My knee bend was wrong!, now I know what I need to do, my down swings is much better, the bend in my arms came from not getting my weight forward and coming up through extension. Great tips!
First instructor to explain this clearly. Great video
Mr. Cheney, I think your content is prrobably the best on the web related to S&T. Can you please give me progression of your videos I should watch in order to improve my S&T skills? Thank you, sir.
Snow on the ground here. Looks like a good indoor drill - should correct one of my multiple faults. Thx for the teaching...
Love your videos! How do you perform online lessons?
outstanding conceptual video allowing a feeling to comit to muscle memory. Is the weight balance Front foot and reaf foot the same with irons?
Best explanation I have seen..I can feel my arm folding too quickly..but no one has explained a simpler solution than you have .Can you use an alignment rod for this drill? I really appreciate the tip.THANKS A LOT…
Great video. I see myself in the “ bad” side. I did have a shoulder replacement ( left) about 8 months ago. Makes getting flex out of lead ( left arm). But no doubt my body not moving right
Winter is here and I've not tried this outdoors yet, only indoors and slowly, but it obviously works perfectly ... master Rob knows his trade 👍
Fantastic instructional video looking forward to giving this a try to cure my chicken wing post impact. Would you say a lack of hip rotation / clearing the hips adequately in the downswing could also be a contributing factor as I feel I sometimes get stuck at impact ? Keep up the great work Rob
Looks like Lynn Blake’s “drag the mop” drill. Started S&T this past 5 months, playing better than ever. Discovered the TGM 3 years ago and my striking and scores improved greatly but I think the S&T ties it together. For me it is the weight forward and the finish drill, extending up. My miss was fat or behind the ball
Thanks I love the drills
Thank you!
This drill is a miracle worker.
Rob, after watching your youtube videos on stack and tilt technique, I practised couple of times at the driving range. My iron ball striking was phenomenal. Applied it on a round of 18 holes with every crispy shots followed by ‘clean professional’ divots.
Currently, I am using Regular-flex 60gm graphite iron shaft. I am of the opinion that probably I might not have any issue if I were to use stiff steel shaft. What’s you view?
I have, however, not been able to hit the driver successfully yet but will not give up until such time I can manage it.
Great video. I think that straight arm release + spine extension + forearms crossing is perhaps the most confusing aspect of the golf swing for most golfers. Which is so damaging because it's the "moment of truth".
fantastic lesson. im currently (im not an official teacher) teaching one of my friends during the cold offseason, using your videos. I have a uneekor qed system. one question i have for you is, do you have an online shop where you might sell your floor setup? meaning the lines/dots for ball/feet/swing position? i would love to use that . thank you for everything. you changed my game so much, my friends hate playing with me now. haha. again thank you
@@golftecasia fantastic. i look forward to seeing the video.
Rob where is your golf Tec Centre. Do you travel to UAE for lessons
I meant to ask this on your training aid vid, but can’t find it - should you use the ball between the forearms for driver and fairway wood?
Rob. Can I ask is the right wrist still in the flying wedge when your arms are straight at finish of this drill.
Rob do you purposefully rotate your forearms thru the follow thru
Hi Rob i played a social game on a Par 3 Mashie course today i mastered the extending through the ball i hit a few shots on perfect line on the bottom Grooves ball going really low perfectly straight is that caused by loosing my Tilt ?
Thanks Rob now I'm off to watch the perfect backswing.
A big 👍
Thanks Rob. This lesson is invaluable. Keeping my arms straight after contact in the follow through has improved my ball fight considerably. Problem is doing it every time. I'm working on it. You may get a new customer on Skillest. Putting and short game are OK. Long irons are inconsistent and Driver is a nightmare. I like your no nonesense approach and your style of delivering the message. Clear, concise and to the point. I watched your 'how to submit a video' on Skillest. May see you soon.
great job. Easy to repeat at home on the mat. But in the real swing on the course AND with a ball between the feets, it goes away. Maybe too stressed and rushing.... keep trying and doing reps
It looks like this would be hard on the back. Any thoughts?
@@golftecasia thank you
Bending the arms isn’t just about extension and flexion, many people bend the arms through and post impact to open the face and try and correct face to path.
That green 31°B the 2:37 mark must surely have a decimal point issue or something, no? Kinda distracting.
