How about big John Daly? I think his style of play tends to cause people to overlook the fact that he's probably as pure a swinger as there is. If you've ever seen his swing in slow mo, it dosen't look like his right hand is doing much of anything. Heck, it looks like it's barely on the club!
Ever see him hit clubs left handed only?
It's a WONDERFUL drill to learn a swinging motion. I tell more advanced players to do it. If you can swing a wedge with your left arm only and produce a small draw. You know how to "swing" with a horizontal hinge.
Then just "slowly" put your right hand back on the club.

I remember a few years ago my Pro giving me this drill to work on the rotation of my left arm through impact (since he is non TGM, it was his way of getting to HH better) I must of hit a ton of wedges that way, the best I got was a straight shot, guess it might be time to go back to it and get that soft draw.

Good call strav! Mr. Kelley often referenced Snead 1946 book "How to Play Golf"...not for what Snead said, but what he did. Snead's record speaks for itself and his Swing was a thing of beauty.
One of the more under-rated swingers in my mind.
Why would you mess with THAT!!!!!!
