The idea is to push out and force your leff arm to stay straight and not bend, which would cause your hands to get closer to your head. I haven't tried this drill, but it makes sense and should help those with a problem of letting their hands get too close to their head. Worth a try I'd think.
Of course if you look at Paul Goydos' swing, that whole keep your hands away from your head goes out the window.
