As for Lee trevino - he was quoted as saying if Jack Nickluas had to play my tee shots he would still be a pharmicst back in ohio!!! man - i got to see him play in some senior events up at sleepl hollow and meadowbrook up here kev - he would talk to wedge and tell it what exactly to do

I agree with you about Lee....the guy was unreal...especially with the way that he would reroute his swing. He is surely top 5 ballstrikers of all time....and he could putt lights out.
Johnny....blah....they dont have tournaments where only the shots from tee to green count. He was hot for a few years in the mid 70's...but I can think of plenty of better ballstrikers before and after him.
