Pleasure meeting this one, what a legend
What a swing, what a player and what a record of wins. Sam Snead.
Everybody loves Sam Snead.
The Perfect Swing.... 110%
If he could putt he'd of won 50 majors, beautiful swing smooth as silk
he needed a scotty cameron

HA HA HA HA
Maybe So.
Imagine Snead having a putter like Lucas Glover, he likely would have set records that no one could have.
He probably didn't originate the squating action in his swing but definitely used it. So much so that I incorporate it in my swing. There's not enough videos of the SLAMMER.
Sam Snead knew more than he told. I recalled a quote of his just today that occured as I was practicing. "It's all in the rythum, Waltz time". Well that's a 1 2 3 tempo. A three count swing rythum. An amazing difference THAT makes.
Belongs on the Mount Rushmore of Golf!
That swing is so powerful and uninhibited. Into the slot and freewheel. No midcourse correction there. That's the swing I would want .
One of the smoothest swings like Couples, but Tom Watson is the smoothest swing I have ever seen.
Surely got to be considered top 5 of all time easily, maybe even the very best in certain areas. There is an unusual stat about him that if he scored something like -2 in every final round of the US open he ever played (leaving the other 3 as they were) he'd have won about 6 US opens. His failure to win 1 is one of the biggest inexplicable truths in the history of the game.
It's pretty simple, it was his putting that cost him winning a US Open.
And yet he was in contention all 3 other days. It's no one thing. It's a fluke he didn't win an Open, but you really can't put it down to any one aspect.
And if you know Snead, he won 82 official victories on tour, so I think his putting was just fine.
@@wx811 Lol. It was his putting that cost him at least one US Open, full stop.
And if YOU knew Snead, which you clearly don't, you'd know putting cost him many more wins. "From late 1946 on, I came down with the longest and most terrible case of yips ever seen in the PGA." They lasted until 1949.
Adam Martin yet here you are. Unless your name is jack snead you can't tell me a thing about Sam I don't know.
Великий!!
LET EM CATCH THAT amen! ;)
I like it how Tiger says, "one of the"... indirectly indicating that he is the best himself - knowing that Sam won more tournaments than him (so far to be fair to Tiger)... I respect that - just an observation... personally, I think Sam's swing allowed him to compete for longer, so over the long haul, he will be STILL the best to date in terms of a human winning golf tournaments, period
ehh i hate Tiger honestly, hes the best short game player ever and had a ton of athletic power but he never had Sams ball striking ability.
@@tomharrington7985 There are many ways to win golf matches. W. Hagen won his matches by short game prowess, and management. So did Tiger. Nicklaus won by playing his opponents, and the course, through mental game. Some players are power hitters, like Snead or Palmer, others short, like Player or Trevino. Even others are all around players, excelling in no particular field.
It's a numbers game in the end, and regardless of how you got there, it's how many you took, not what it looked like.
your not wrong but i think Ben Hogan would seriously disagree with you lol. Im a fan of the power full swing type but not necassirly like todays players that never hit fairways but still make up for it with 200 yard wedges.
@@tomharrington7985 Speaking of great ball strikers, you ever hear of Byron Nelson?
@@wx811 of course
it's been said that Snead had a hole in one with all clubs except putter (obviously).
