Although never seen in person, all debate starts and ends with Hogan in my opinion.
I have talked to many of my older friends and they all say the same thing, it was the most beautiful, most controlled aggression they have ever seen. They all speak of the sound being different than all others.( If the sound thing sounds familiar, people in the know said the same of Bobby Clampett).
Was also very impressed with Keith Clearwater at Augusta in early 90's.
Hit had a lot of MASH and hit the MIDDLE of the sweetspot every time and hit it DEAD where he was looking.
Johnny Miller hit the PRETTY-ist ball I ever saw. And at least 3 shots a round stone dead (lick in range).
Byron Nelson in his 60's hit it DEAD STRAIGHT every damn time, no curve. Just one yard pulls and 1 yard pushes. You got the felling he would NEVER miss a fairway.
Tom Bartlett—in his mid-20's—was the most impressive driver of the ball ever.
30 yards longer than anyone who hit it as straight.
David Toms hits the sweetspot more times than anyone...EVER. And always hole-high.
As far as moving the ball around at will...?
There was this fat guy at Caton that even impressed the unimpressable Ben Doyle...
