John Daly style just - "grip it and rip it"
Is there anyone inspired by Moe Norman swing?

My concern is the possibility of injury, especially if you are playing/practicing a lot

Personally I don’t like the idea of making a swing based on a particular person.
i feel you should swing based on your own physical build and abilities.
I have a smooth rhythm more akin to Ernie Els, not by choice but from being 6 foot tall and lanky. I couldn’t choose this swing like Rory, Fitzpatrick or Woosie, as I can’t produce the fast rhythm, no matter how hard I hit at the ball.
So I would say don’t build a swing based on one person; learn to hit it, and build a swing from there ( and take note of all the swings of the best players, and you may see common features which will help you)

Sort of yes!
your own swing, influenced by other - not, entirely based on one man

Moe Norman probably hit more balls than anybody had done before or since

I know, but I wasn't talking about him getting injured.

If you want to find your own version of Moe's swing that's fine - but don't be influenced by what he said he was doing in the swing 'cos he got that wrong. Check out some of the slo mo (excuse pun) analyses on youtube.

Glad it’s not just me that thought this. In the few videos I’ve seen, he says, “Do this, like this”, then does something completely different to what he’s saying.

Just one example .... He said that he finished the swing with the club pointing at the target. What he hadn't realised was after his follow, he then brought the club back down to point at the target.

I think I find a way to hit thousand balls a day like Moe

Moe proved that you can hit a golf ball straight as a die and still not win much of anything important.
I know people who swear by the "Natural Golf" system, but I've never tried it myself.

55 time winner on the Canadian tour. I believe he left the PGA USA tour because he didn’t like the way he was treated. Maybe things could have been different...

Yes, I suppose that's possible.
