saw him in abilene texas at a now defunct senior tour event. the man actually hit a draw with a sand wedge into a left to right wind. yes,a sand wedge. try that some time.
WOW UNCLE LEE I LOVE UR VIDS...HEHEHE HOPEFULLY I WILL SEE U SOON..LOVE YOU AND GODBLESS....chris..im rudy trevinos grandson i believe he was ur brother or uncle or i dont know....
his sounded different because lee learned to hit it with the shaft leaning forward this compressed the ball to the max and good observation on the sound, this gives a good ballstriker away everytime so listen to the shots now check my lessons out at hitmanhawky and learn how to hit it like lee did and check my swing out to forward leaning shaft at impact for me and thanks hitmanhawky
"Left the fairway only to answer the phone"--that's a good one, and let me tell you, it's true. I saw him play in Austin in an exhibition on Legends week (with Chi Chi, Crenshaw and Kite), and I'm telling you, it was like an out-of-body experience. The other guys hit it just great, don't get me wrong, but Trevino's shots sounded different, the way people used to say about Hogan--such a shallow angle of approach, just flushing the back of that ball every time. It was surreal.
"Lee Trevino's Full Swing! They use to say that he only left the fairway to answer the phone." Yes. And the secret is a non-rotating club face through the swing. Check his top (shut), check his follow though; late cross-over.
At 5:01 Trevino drops his club to the inside when coming down from the top of his swing, much like Sergio, creating a lot lag. This helps promote the ball going from right to left, a draw. But Trevino plays a fade, the reason that it fades is because his hips are open similar to Freddy. Nice video, good tips on the take away.
I know what you mean,but watch Miguel Jimenez, Justin rose(doing his Ali G, Staines Massive), and Ian Poulter I saw Poulter telling off an over enthusiastic drunk Spanish fan telling Jimenez to try harder at the Volvo at Valderrama last year the Drunken Spaniard and Poulter where Deadly serious Jimenez was pissing himself laughing very funny.
Hey Congrats on the Trevino videos, he is one of my favorite players and I try to swing like him a bit, you know open stance strong grip come from the inside.
He is a great player.
Do you have his book GROOVE YOU GOLF SWING MY WAY.
he's half the man he is now....as in , half the weight.....

Looking at Trevino's swing is like looking at Medusa; it could ruin your game. Trevino was a genius with a God-given short game.

No rotation = accuracy
Lee will always be the King in my book

That's hysterical. You don't happen to know whether anybody caught that on video, do you?

Trevino is just behind Hogan as the best ball striker. This fellow can command the ball like a well trained dog.

Tiger Woods was lucky to have met Lee Trevino early is his life....he could be something else if he had met Arnold Palmer
