I am just curious who you guys fell has the best swing in golf? PROS!? dont want to get a bunch of replies saying you guys have the best swings! haha in terms of pros, could be PGA, EUROPEAN, or LPGA.

Ill start off by saying.... Luke Donald. not a power hitter by any means but what balance and grace.. every time he swings its hard to pick out any faults. swing just looks SO effortless... something we could probably all learn from.

well your turn lets here who you guys like and why. dont want this to become a negative thread with people saying you suck for who you picked and why they are always right... ive found there are some members on here that just like to argue and rebuttal so lets not make this one of them. look forward to hearing your answers see ya

Do you mean the best technically (depending on the preferred "method" this will produce some debate) or the one we enjoy watching the most on television? As long as I don't have to watch them walk to their ball or hear them speak, I could watch Rory and Adam all day. I also like Luke Donald once he's safely off the tee, Tom Watson, Tom Lehman, Ernie Els,  Michelle Wie, Suzanne Pettersen (sp?) and Stacy Lewis. Sort of a random sampling.

My pick was purely on the look of the swing...I have no idea on who's swing is technically the best. They all seem to do fine with them.

Me too. If it was about results (i.e. wins) I'd pick this one:

I'd have to agree with you on Luke Donald. It really doesn't get any better than that.

    • Is it? I bought the Stack radar to replace my PRGR based on what Stack told me! When I am swinging for speed, the PRGR would miss 50%-80% of my backswings due to a higher speed. The stack seldom misses those- at least for me.
    • As an analyst by nature, I would like to compare the scores under both systems. It is something we can easily do if we have the data. I actually thought the new system was less fair to those whose game was on the decline - like mine! Old: Best 10 of last 20 scores with the .96 multiplier. Course handicap excluded course rating and overall par. New: Best 8/20. Course handicap includes course rating -par. My understanding is Stableford caps scores at Net double bogey like stroke play. If so, handicap should be slower to rise because you are only using 8 versus 10 scores. If I am missing something, I am curious enough to  want to understand what that may be. My home course tees that I play are 72.1/154 now. My best score out here is 82. When my game started to decline, my handicap didn’t budge for 13 rounds because of good scores in my first 8! I know I am an anomaly but my handicap has increased almost 80% in the past few years (with only a few rounds this year). For a few months I knew I was losing every bet because my game was nowhere near my handicap. I suspect I have steamrolled a few nuances but that shouldn’t matter much. When I have modeled this with someone playing the same tees and course, one good round, or return to form, will immediately reduce the handicap by some amount.
