Tyler - I know this forum isn’t meant to be a catch all for swing analysis, but In struggling hard. I can’t seem to crack the early extension. Here are updated swings. I just can’t seem to figure out how to keep right arm bent without also bending left arm which causes me to get narrow and steep.

Hi Garrett,

Sorry for the delay, was traveling and fell behind. This forum is meant to be a supporting platform to your quest to understand your own swing pattern. Hopefully we can get to the bottom of things.

I would tend to put you more in the arm throw category rather than an early extension category. Your early extension looks fairly minor, and a compliment to the arm throw, rather than a driver of it. Here's a video explaining my thoughts better, thanks for your patience,

Happy Golfing,
Tyler

I think I understand now and appreciate your time on this journey. How do I keep the right shoulder down and back rather than up and forward? Any videos/drills you’d recommend? Separately do you think an idea of extending the right arm down the line versus at the ball would help keep the right shoulder quiet?
