I'm an old timer and I will state that Jack faced stiffer competition from #2 - #10 in the fields, particularly in the majors. As someone else posted, look at the major records of Watson, Player, Palmer, et al.
Now where Peej, some others and I differ is I feel todays fields are stronger and deeper from 1 - 40 than those Jack faced in his career from 1 - 40.

Today's fields are much deeper. Nationwide players today would have been Tour players back then.
They were great players, and Watson has definitely proved it with his longevity, but he also hit the ball differently than players than. Same with Palmer and Jack. Trevino wouldn't have competed today with a low cut.
It was easier back then to be a multiple major winner

Ill look back at some research I did. But Im pretty sure it came with Jack playing 20 HOF's and Tiger is facing about 12.
