He was one of the first, I remember anyways ,with a high lofted fairway wood. A little seven wood if memory serves me. He'd have a bag full of rescue clubs today probably.
I saw him play at the Canadian Open back in the 70's he'd hit his drivers so low, they'd whistle as they passed you, climb steadily and fall off to the right. I remember my mom saying they looked a jet taking off. On one hole he kicked up a grass tee, like an old time place kick in school yard football, and hit a driver, knuckle ball. He was a shot maker to the extreme. I was one of Lee's Flees back then. He'd talk to anyone, anytime, to himself didnt matter. People loved him.
So was he angled hinging? Im seeing him stopping at top too if you know where Im going. Not a lot of left wrist cock with that bowed wrist. Lots of thrust with that right arm?
I love this photo of him at impact with a driver that Bucket posted a while back. Look at that right forearm pointing way way down the line! That bent right wrist! That is one awesome RFFW.
Im wondering if that bowed left wrist he displayed in the video (the flat left wrist with an hefty insurance policy on it) while great at impact for short shots caused him fits when he took it (still bowed) to top with a long club? The loop, push being his compensating move? Do you think that is the main consideration in the evolution of his action? The bow in response to the hardpan and winds of his Texas golf course?
