Wasn't the reason he was called the Bear was because of his weight?

He has always been defensive of his right elbow. Consider the following quote of his: My right elbow position at the top of my swing has caused comment throughout my career. As I've said before, my elbow doesn't "fly." To do that, it would have to point behind me. What it actually does is rise high in order to give me maximum arm extension going back. But at the completion of the backswing it points down at the ground. . . If you lack power, forget that old maxim about tucking the right elbow into the side going back. Try my style.

Nobody before or since has wound the upper half their body as much as he did in his prime. I wonder if he could have done it without spikes?
