Jack Pollard, writing in his 1990 book Australian Golf - the Game and the Players, describes the photographs of Soutar swinging in The Australian Golfer: "Soutar had a long, sweeping swing, his supple wrists enabling him to take the club a long way back over his left shoulder before he hit the ball freely and gave it a full follow through. There was no jerk or hindrance in his swing and body turn, just a lovely free-flowing movement of the club. He was tall and fit, and usually wore a peaked cap or tam o’shanter."
