How to fix a bent left arm

[alaleksic]

I have a problem when we get momentum at chest , left arm starts to bend at the elbow ...
Is it a big problem

on the backswing....No.

I would think that a bent left arm anywhere before impact is not wanted. Work on short little swings. A six iron that hours only 50 yards, making sure that the left arm stays straight. Increase distance/swing speed gradually all the while keeping that arm straight. Oh btw welcome to the Sandtrap!

Try this drill.  If the left arm is too bent, the feeling of the right arm being extended helps.  You do this by "pushing" your right hand into your left.
