Best Ballstriker

[lagster]

Nice job compiling the list Lagster!!!

I'd like to hear from some of the...uh hum...older folks. Those that have seen both Trevino and Hogan. I only have tape and have not had the privelege to see either live. Anyone?

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.

Really? That's funny....ya they are kinda polar opposites tho.

I don't get how Hogan's swing can even work with his fast tempo.

I mean....he's a Swinger right? I dunno....I tend to fall towards the slow side I guess....doesn't work when I Swing fast like that.
