You do not need a great golf swing to play great golf, you need great golf skills to play great golf. A consistent motion that looks terrible but has good impact alignments combined with a great short game will almost always beat a "pretty" swing with no "game". Ask Jim Furyk, Lee trevino, Miller Barber, Bruce Lietzke, and any other "goofy" swinger for a game. BTW, Brian Gay is a better ball striker than before but he has stayed on tour all of these years because he is one of the best ever around the green. golfgnome View Public Profile Send a private message to golfgnome Find all posts by golfgnome
