About this Quote

This quote by Lee Trevino is a humorous way of stating that if you are ever caught in a storm on a golf course, you should not hesitate of lightning. The 1-iron is a golf club that is notoriously challenging to hit accurately, so the implication is that even God would not be able to strike it. This quote is implied to be lighthearted and funny, but it likewise works as a suggestion that no matter how bad the storm is, you must not be afraid of lightning. It is a pointer that no matter how effective the storm is, it is still no match for the power of God. This quote is a reminder that no matter how bad the circumstance is, God is still in control and will protect us.
