I'd go with Sergio's swing. Great with the woods and irons. I love to watch Ernie and Freddie, but give me Garcia's swing.

My draw is your cut.

I think the quick answer is Tiger, but the problem with his swing is that, without his build you probably couldn't pull it off. It takes an incredible amount of flexibility and forearm strength to swing the club like he does.

That said, I'd have to say Adam Scott or Sergio. I really love watching Scott swing the club. Sergio is arguably the best ball striker on tour. If only he could putt he'd be contending every week.

Adam Scott has virtually the exact same swing as Tiger. Probably because they both worked with Butch.

I think it's funny how many people listed Adam Scott but not Tiger. Same Swing, except Tiger does it better!

Scott's swing is "the same" as Tiger's, but they go about it differently if that makes any sense. Just look at SwingVision slow-mos of their driver swing. Tiger's swing is WAY harder whereas Adam's swing is more smooth. Yes, it's the same swing in design, but IMO Tiger generates far more lag on the way down and it takes a lot of arm strength and rotation to pull it off.

I think maybe 7-8 years ago this is true but I think they are pretty different now. I beleive Adam Scott talked about this in an interview in one of the golf magazines recently.

For swings, Goosen or Ogilvy are my favs.

I think that's because everyone on this forum, let alone everyone in the world, would love to swing like Tiger but know that our level of golf can't reach that level. If we're looking at swingers whose swing is actually attainable, then we're all gonna answer differently. If we dont have any limits, 100% of this forum would say Tiger. Tiger's the obvious answer but i think everyone on this forum wants to be unique, so we all took Tiger out of the equation, including me (I said Scott and Garcia)...

Naturally, Tiger is far more athletic than Adam Scott.

As I said earlier, same swing, Tiger just does it better.

The only big difference between the two is at the top. I think Scott doesn't get quite as parallel as Tiger.

This is going back, but remember Payne Stewart? Love that tempo. It's not picture perfect like today's pros (he straightens the back leg), with video cams everywhere, but it sure looks like it doesn't put any extra strain on the body.

Kill slow play. Allow walking. Reduce ineffective golf instruction. Use environmentally friendly course maintenance.

I don't think they're the same anymore. Tiger's changed his swing under Hank Haney a fair bit.

Um...I don't want you to take this wrong, but do you really think anyone on this forum can reach the level (attain the same swing) of ANY tour pro? I hope you all prove me wrong and make millions on tour, but this whole thread is dreamland for all of us; that's the point.

My pick: Charles Howell III (but I'd seriously take Craig Parry's in a heartbeat if it meant I could play like him)

Ernie Els, no doubt. But as many have stated before me, if I could make a million or more per season, I'd take Jim Furyks!

I will say Adam Scott, I'm trying to do the same basic moves of his swing and it is working for me.

      My Favorite Putts

      By DrizZzY ·

      I dont know if I really have a favorite, but there are two that have stuck in my mind for a very long time. #15 at Erie Golf course during the Finals of the EDGA Matchplay. Was up early and then lost a few holes in row so the match was close again. My opponent had a short putt for birdie. I hit past hole high, but 35 feet right. I drained the putt and looked over at my opponent who was in disbelief.   #8 at Whispering Woods during another year of the EDGA Matchplay. Was playing a very cocky opponent who made sure to mention on the first tee how many times he won the club championship at this course. I hammered this 30 footer that clanked off of the pin and dropped. My opponent was disgusted and that made me weirdly happy. I went on to win 5&3 or something like that, so that entire day has stayed in my memory.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By Darkfrog ·

      Day 20: Did 30 minutes after getting home from work, before kid's baseball practice. This session was piecing out the new hip move in transition, doing 2-3 rehearsals from the top, and then hitting a ball from between P5/P6. Did another 45 minutes after baseball practice and dinner. Did 30 more minutes of what I did earlier, and then about 15 minutes of full swings trying to incorporate athletically.
