Venturi Effects

Was his ball striking prowess equal to that of The Hawk and Lee Buck?

I'll be happy to scan what I have and post if there are no issues . . . Martee!!!!!!

Thanks!

Ken Venturi played alot of golf with both Nelson and Hogan. Venturi (who was taught by Nelson)had tremendous respect for both, but believed Nelson was the better ball striker. He believed that Hogan was the best at managing the course.
