A lot of the S&T guys could learn a lot from this swing: play the ball slightly forward in the stance, which makes you stay more center, and focus on rhythm. Instead, they look like they just got off a horse and they can hardly move, because their butt is so sore.
The Goose has 1of the best swings on tour, silky smooth & solid. His tendency to have 1 bad or mediocre round in every tournament has cost him quite a few titles in last 5-6 years.
He is one strong dude. Look at the image a 1:20. He's halfway down and he's bending the snot out of that shaft, and the muscles on his left arm are bulging. He's very deep into his downswing and still has huge lag and the club face is parallel to the inclined downswing plane. 95% of even stronger male golfer will hit the ball right from this position.

he'll never win again. too much arm swing and weak set up - hands behind ball witht the dog. he's just another tour 'freak' who gets away with less then perfect mechanics.
He will win again........that is what separates the greats from the mortals. His putter was his nemesis this year and he admitted he was working too hard on the full swing with Jameson and his putting suffered. Calling him a freak may be the greatest comment given as with his flaws he can still beat the best in the world.
@swingtrade2 since when does the swing win on tour? all short game man, its his putter that is holding him back, i think he still has a few more in him
Retief Goosen has 1 victory on tour this season, one 2nd place, one 3rd place, 5 top 10's and 9 top 25's. Together with his improved swing and this season's stats, I believe Retief will - and hopefully too - will another major next season. KEEP IT UP RETIEF!!!!!
What is it with the sound effect... Uhggh

is that one plane or 2 plane swing

@geet25
His top position is sorta 2 plane, but he flattens into a one plane downswing IMO. I bit of a hybrid move.

How good is his short game?
With a swing like that he should be regularly in the top 5.
