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.
