I've seen Trevino several times. All on the Senior Tour.
I saw him hit a drive that was as straight as an arrow, fairly low, and fairly long. He goes through that little routine... then that ball tears out of there. I know a former tour player that used to play practice rounds with Trevino. He said he was by far the best ball striker.

I know a tour player from the 50's and 60's that played with Hogan. He said the SOUND he produced from striking the ball was quite unique. Snead did not like to play with him, because his tempo(Hogan's) bothered Sam.
