Definition of 'Pretty'....meaning nice swing....macam pro finish.......score is another matter.

Exactly. If you can't play like a pro, you need to look like a pro.

interesting topic bro. malu la if swing so pretty but ball only fly 50m. i tried to swing beautifully but cant get the distance, normal swing better, looks ugly but ball fly far wahahaha.

another point you may want to add to "pretty" is the way you dress.

Frankly speaking, I believe if you swing pretty, you are more or less quite effective. I have not really seen a pretty swing and yet ball cannot fly.

But on the other hand, I see many many funny swings and yet ball fly long long

Furyk swing is not pretty at the top, but very effective on the downwing and at impact.

I wouldn't mind swinging like that and playing golf like he does!

A pro swing decades ago may look funny to us now. A seemingly funny swing now may become a pro swing in future. As long as it works I personally don't really get bothered by how it looks. Too bad my swing is neither pretty nor effective now... Swing
