Who has the most natural swing in pro golf?
In my opinion, Bubba Watson has the most natural swing. He has never taken a lesson in his life; all he did was make big circles for his swing technique. Once that was in, he simply had fun making the ball curve. And guess what? For some, that is the best way to go!! See why in this video.

I think you mean instinctual and functional. Not natural. But whatever works, that’s the best about golf.

30 hdcp golfers have the most natural golf swings. They are usually swinging just as nature, genetics and unconscious would have us move.
For an efficient golf swing, it requires overcoming genetic tendency, overcoming what is natural.

The golf swing is not natural.
IMO golf instructors who can distinguish between natural , genetically preprogrammed tendency and proper movement for a golf swing, will allow golfers to progress.

HI, Great vid. Knowing there are different time of running/walking styles (impulse coming from the legs vs upper body), do you think that this motion can be applied to all players?
Cheers
