My personal favorite is Fred Couples, it looks like a lazy practice swing. Ernie Els and Tiger come a close second/third.

I reckon Luke Donald has the most traditional looking swing of the modern golfers, but I also get a kick out of seeing Villegas thrashing at it. All time greatest swing has to be Hogan, hands down.

I think Villegas has probably the worst swing on tour. No rhythm. Just takes the club to 3/4 and swings as hard as he can. But hey, if it works enough for a PGA win...well...then it must work.

Hi All, I'm new here but have to agree with all who have suggested that Freddie has the best swing on tour. Smooth, relaxed and long.

I like Geoff Ogilvy's swing myself. I also like Freddie's swing.

    • I'm not sure you're calculating the number of strokes you would need to give correctly. The way I figure it, a 6.9 index golfer playing from tees that are rated 70.8/126 would have a course handicap of 6. A 20-index golfer playing from tees that are rated 64/106 would have a course handicap of 11. Therefore, based on the example above, assuming this is the same golf course and these index & slope numbers are based on the different tees, you should only have to give 5 strokes (or one stroke on the five most difficult holes if match play) not 6. Regardless, I get your point...the average golfer has no understanding of how the system works and trying to explain it to people, who haven't bothered to read the documentation provided by either the USGA or the R&A, is hopeless. In any case, I think the WHS as it currently is, does the best job possible of leveling the playing field and I think most golfers (obviously, based on the back & forth on this thread, not all golfers) at least comprehend that.   
    • Day 115 12-5 Skills work tonight. Mostly just trying to be more aware of the shaft and where it's at. Hit foam golf balls. 
    • Day 25 (5 Dec 25) - total rain day, worked on tempo and distance control.  
    • Yes it's true in a large sample like a tournament a bunch of 20 handicaps shouldn't get 13 strokes more than you. One of them will have a day and win. But two on one, the 7 handicap is going to cover those 13 strokes the vast majority of the time. 20 handicaps are shit players. With super high variance and a very asymmetrical distribution of scores. Yes they shoot 85 every once in a while. But they shoot 110 way more often. A 7 handicap's equivalent is shooting 74 every once in a while but... 86 way more often?
