Lead Arm at/after impact

Hi Craig, I was looking carefully at some of the videos I upload for GOATY (& human) swing reviews with my attention focused on the pronounced flip I have at impact. Impact occurs under my chin, not under the lead shoulder. (Which probably partially explains why I don’t hit the ball very far - 125 yds with a 7 iron). So what I observed is that my lead arm folds pretty dramatically at the elbow at/after impact - upper part of the lead arm almost glued to the lead side of my body as I turn through. I’d like to understand what the lead arm should be doing (& what it should look like) at/after impact. Would changing this collapsing lead arm at impact attain some shaft lean, ball compression and appropriate ball flight and distance? Could you demonstrate at next webinar? Thanks, Sean
