In addition to what Zeph said, doing something well doesn't mean they're good at instructing or they know whether what they think they're doing is what they're actually doing. See the Nick Faldo ball flight laws video.

Being expert at doing something and being expert at teaching something are different things altogether. Tiger got to world #1 with some obvious "issues" in his swing and Phil Mickelson's swing is rarely used as a good example because it's got a number of issues... yet they are often #1 and #2 in the world. The current #1 has a dramatically bent left arm at impact. Works for him, won't work for 99% of the rest of the world.

True Jim Furyk is a good example as well lol

Sorry to bump this old thread... But I just watched this on iacas Youtube channel.  LOL... Love it.  I'm in the camp that I saw a brisk wind coming from left to right - which I thought made his 'fade' more of a slice.  But then I saw his 'draw' and my jaw dropped.  Seriously, great to see that I'm not the only guy who has issues curving the golf ball the way I intend it to go! :D

Martin Kaymer... You just gained a lot more respect from me...
