When you swing and miss a drive at golf does it count?

Recently a friend of mine and I were playing golf when, upon his drive at # 2 he whiffed. I've played with him for 20 years and never saw him do that. He said it didn't count because the ball was not in play. I said the intent to strike the ball was there so it did count. as it turned out it made no difference in the final score but which is correct?
