One piece of evidence that he could be a 4-barrel hitter.

He spoke of this very thing in his book . . .

LET THE LEFT ARM LEAVE YOUR SIDE
To keep your clubhead moving down your flight path a little longer past impact, you must let your left arm leave your left side as you swing through the ball. When this happens correctly you'll feel your right shoulder working under instead of around. The extent that the clubhead can stay on the flight path past impact is exaggerated in the large drawing, but even a fraction of an inch more extension of the on-path movement will improve your chances for starting shots in the direction you intend.

Mr. K according to Yoda was particularly impressed with Buckle's ability to hit DOWN all the way DOWN DOWN DOWN. I have the Shell's dvd of Buck vs. Fat Jack. These dudes were past their prime, but I'm convinced that Lee has the best pivot and Right Forearm Flying Wedge the game has ever seen. I don't know if the above quote is a "feel vs. real" thing, but I think Lee took every shot to a perfect FULL LEVER EXTENSION. He may not have had the speed. But when he hit the ball it got BASHED with STRUCTURE . . . HARD.
