That's one of the main reasons I don't ever want to watch myself swing on video...

Spending your new club money on LESSONS? That's crazy talk...

I like to make my mental picture of Phil Mickelson on his backswing and Annika Sorenstam on the follow-through. I understand that I have a good-looking swing so something must be working!

Sam Snead. JK. :-p

I don't really know who I swing like, really. I'm still learning so I can't say. :-p

Great spirits will always encounter violent opposition from mediocre minds.

I have no idea. Erik might have a better idea as he's seen my swing more than anyone else on this board, but I can't think of any pro I look like off the top of my head.

Fairways and Greens.

It depends on the day. My swing changes from hole to hole...OK shot to shot. Now my practice swing, that's a thing of beauty. If I could just sneak a ball in there during the back swing I could shave off 5 per side. I work for a guy that does fitness reports for the morning news at the NBC affiliate in Detroit. Every year we do golf specific exercises and without fail my swing ends up on TV. Last year we did a piece for his 30 minute prime time special. My swing was all over it. My buddies all let me know how "great" I looked. To make matters worse, the show has been picked up nationally and my swing will be in over 200 markets worldwide.

My swing looks like Joe Cocker on stage singing "with a little help from my friends".At least that what the Mrs. Says!!

I only saw you swing twice at Bethpage and both were at the range. That number was quite on purpose!

In other words, your description seems quite appropriate...
