Left arm

Hi Guys

Can you tell me does Brian advocate a straight left arm or a bent one? I've got NSA2 and all the other videos I can get my hands on (youtube etc) and I've noticed he bends it in them, but I can't find any mention of it anywhere, I am of course talking about on the backswing
Cheers
Alan

The Left Arm.

In any effective golf swing—and in some that aren't so effective—the Left Arm gets PULLED to as straight as it needs to be at impact.

I have always prefered a soft left arm, and since my rotator cuff surgery, mine doesn't stay as straight on the backswing, with ZERO effect on my ball striking.
