I voted for Tiger.

The bottom line is, while Bonds will end up with great "counting" stats, few of those were really that memorable. I can remember his mammoth HR he hit off of Percival in the WS, but what else stands out?

Tiger on the other hand, has the advantage that golf provides a ton of easily memorable moments. The lore surrounding things like Watson's chip in on 17, etc, are easy to re-tell compared to a HR that someone hit.

tolbiny covered this, but...

I think Kirk Gibson's WS HR with the Dodgers is more of a "moment" than any golf shot ever was. His '84 HR with the Tigers in game 5 is probably #2.
