I remember when a guy here who was a genuine 1-2 handicap posted his swing, and got asked if he was a 20 even though his contact was almost perfect and he had great tempo
I didn't check all the swings but i 100% believe the 4-5 low cap ones i checked out.

What a great post. I also have noticed that none of the people trolling this thread have posted their own swings for comparison.
I don't think my swing is perfect but as a 5 handicap I end up getting strokes from guys who look like they couldn't hit a basketball on a tee, and a lot of them comment on how nice my swing looks while they count my money. It isn't so much how it looks guys.

This is what I hate about this world, you can't criticize someone without being yelled at, "Well I don't see you(doing whatever you're criticizing)...etc..." What I can't say someone has a average swing without posting my own swing. Makes no sense. If I'm a 10 handicap I can't say someone with a 2 handicap has a crappy swing without seeing mine!? I just don't get it.

Its because for some reason people think that scratch golfers have to swing like tour players. If they swung like tour players you know what they probably wouldnt be? scratch golfers! They would be much better! No offense to anyone but it just isn't as hard to be scratch as a lot of people think. Look at the plus 3's on the first page, they are all obviously good players who are 20 years old and playing golf every single day! No wonder they are good players!
