I really like Luke Donald's swing, so smooth and controlled. I do also like watching the way Padraig really tries to hammer everything from the tee.

Add a vote for a guy who gets a lot out of his swing - purely athletic - could just as easily produce an albatross or a quad . . . Ricky Barnes.

when I saw the title of this thread, I knew its easily fred couples and ernie els. There is no one else out there that swings smoother than these guys. I dont know how they swing so smooth and no one else can duplicate it.

As far as a pure athletic swing at the ball category goes to Tiger.

John Daly. Grip it and rip it!

Nah, I'm a big fan of Fred Couples's swing, especially with the irons. So smooth and effortless looking.

Definitely Els, The Big Easy. Effortless power.
I also like Rory McIlroy's swing. Very athletic and clean.
I like Sean O'Hair too.
Pretty much admire most of the PGA players. lol.

Freddie's swing is awesome to watch. I've got to say that If I could duplicate someones swing it would be Louis Oosthuizen's.

Rory McIlroy.

His fundamentals are very solid and I love his tempo when he strikes the golf ball. His swing is very powerful yet somewhat controlled. It's awesome to watch.

    • Ok, I'm trying to find a feel to hit a consistent ball flight (irons).  My current predicament.  1. I try to do the arms down stuff better, with the club feeling like it is way behind me more. It's just a cluster of results. Most of the time, I can't get any speed on the swing. If I get my arms down faster, I just throw them out.  2. I focus all my attention on turning better. Pushing off with my left leg and getting my right side through better. On the DTL view, this doesn't produce anywhere close where the hands and club should be. The result is usually ball first contact, lower ball flight, more centered contact.  At this point, I am going with option 2. Stop thinking about what the hands do. Just make a shorter backswing, keep it wide, turn through. Somehow, the club head finds the ball. My focus is so much on just making sure I turn, it's like, "Oh, that contact was better.... Oh, that bell flight looks playable." If not, I will just be practicing my entire summer.       
    • Nope, they spent too much money. They are in over 28 million on the football roster and related NIL compensation at this point. Boosters associated with any Texas college football team has HUGE sway. The AD is between a rock and a hard place. They put a lot of money into Sorsby, at the chance of winning a NC this year. If you move on, you basically wasted a lot.  This is why Ohio State wants 3 QB's they feel can start. That is why the backups the past 5 years at some point transfer. Texas Tech has no backup near the quality of Sorsby. If they move on, they are screwed for 2026. 
    • Maybe there's something I still don't understand about the situation. Wouldn't Texas Tech do itself a favor to move on from Sorsby at this point?
