There was a time that I simply could not figure out how to hit the ball with a straight left arm.
Then one day I could and never understood why.
Not until I took a flexibility exam with a personal trainer.
Gosh.
My left ahoulder was A LOT more flexible than the right. Tried to hit a southpaw swing and there was no way I could keep my right arm straight.
So if you can't figure out how to keep the left arm straight it is simply because you are not flexible enough.
No problem. Just stretch it. Day in. Day out. On the subway. In the office. In the bathroom.
You'll get there.
And do both while you are at it.
Look at Tiger or Ernie or Vijay. One of the main reasons they can really whallop the ball is flexibility.
Get flexibility and you'll have a chance.
