If you could have any pro's swing, whose would it be?

Amazing! 180 posts and not one mentioned the most successful golfer in history. Surely Jack Nicklaus must have had a decent swing to achieve so much.

IMHO, this question, GSOAT, can be interpreted as one or any combination of

• best looking,
• most technically sound
• most effective.

Most effective involves swing & mental fortitude - that would be JN or TW of the Tiger Slam days.

Best looking is subjective.

Most technically sound - that I leave to the swing gurus.

besides jack, im surprised no1 has mention arnold palmer. i just say the tv series arnie the other day and he has a sweet looking follow through!

I would want Adam Scotts swing. I love watching that dude swing his golf club. It's so smooth, powerful and beautiful.

Freddie.

Freddy's

I've always loved to watch Rory's swing, but I think I'd Hunter Mahan's. Pretty simple and consistent.

[bigoak]

Sam Snead's swing.

[COBRAboy]

Tommy gainey. Just so I could scam people of their money

[pumaAttack]

Rory McIlroy.

Not even close.

Hard to argue with that! [quote name="pumaAttack" url="/t/69199/if-you-could-have-any-pros-swing-whose-would-it-be/100_100#post_981400"]Rory McIlroy. Not even close. [/quote] For modern day, I agree. Beautiful swing.

Geez. That's exactly whose swing I would take. Any pro.

[ClayHbg]

1. Adam Scott (aka Tiger circa 2000)

2. Seung-Yul Noh

3. Rory

Strickers simple swing is the only one I think I could manage ...

[jmurder]

I watched Paul Casey on the driving range yesterday on tv.. That is one simple, sweet, and repeatable swing

[Dloy]

Sam Snead's swing.

Ditto here. Fred's is just as pretty so I could go either way. Maybe not technically as pure as some suggestions, but more classy for it.

And, both are lifetime swings.
