Re: How bad is my form?
It's pretty ugly...it looks like you chop at the ball...instead of swing through it...i'm sure your backswing isn't smooth either....
do you hook? it looks like you probably pull it a lot.

Re: How bad is my form?
first- most golfers don't use the term "form" when referring to their swings, nothing wrong, just kinda n00bish
second- your stance looks a little too wide...(although i cant quite tell what club you are using), but you usually want your feet shoulder length apart, slightly increasing in width with the longer clubs. You could also bend you knees a bit more to get more power and flexibility into your swing. Your takeaway looks a bit awkward and your grip definitely could use some help. Just ask anyone you know who plays golf or maybe a pro who works at the range to help you out with grip and basic takeaway. GL ZZzzZZzz

Re: How bad is my form?
Couple of things:
1. That looks like a putting grip. Normal grip looks more like this  2. Keep your left arm straight. You should take the club back far enough so that your left arm is parallel with the ground. 3. Bend your wrists about 45 degrees so that the club head is more or less in line with your left leg at the top of your swing. 4. Bend your knees. 5. Your left leg should be leaning back (away from the direction in which you want to hit the ball) more so you create more forward momentum on the downswing. 6.
