2.0 out of 5 stars good for children.
I strongly recommend you get Sean Skinner's dvd series Stickhandling Beyond Belief. While it is not dealing with scoring, Skinner's dvd will do a lot more for a player of any skill level than this short dvd. This is mainly for brute beginners and children.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bobby Hull Hockey Shooting & Scoring-It's Great!!, April 13, 2004

This review is from: Bobby Hull Hockey Shooting & Scoring (DVD)
It doesn't matter if you play hockey on the ice, inline or on the street, this instructional DVD is fantastic if you want to learn how to shoot and score like the Hull Family.

The DVD starts out with cool NHL scoring highlights followed by detailed intruction on how to shoot & score goals when playing hockey. This instructional DVD covers the best positions on the ice to score from, goalies weaknesses, where to shoot on the net and the secret weapon all goal scorers possess! Viewers are instructed hand positions on the stick and puck positions in relation to the body for each and every shot. Instruction includes weight transfer and follow through techniques that helped me with my shot in the first lesson.

All the shots in hockey are reviewed and broken down in slow motion segments so even begginers can catch on quickly! This DVD will teach you the wrist shot, the backhand shot, the snap shot, the one time shot, the slapshot and dekes! It covers everything! With the shot demonstrations done by NHL Superstar Brett Hull and telestration and explainations by former Coach of The Year Bobby Hull Jr., you cannot help but see your shot improve quickly. There is even insites by NHL Hall of Fame Member Bobby Hull Senior.

The DVD is very well organized and functions both on PC's and the television/DVD player set up. All menues are clearly labeled and easy to locate and use. To top it off, there is a drills segment that showed me exactly how to practice the skills I learned while watching the DVD. There are even some funny out takes at the end of the video. I can tell you that this is one of the best instrutional hockey items on the market because I have tried them all! Buy it right away.

I can't reccomend this DVD any stronger than to tell you after watching the DVD and practicing the skills and drills for a week I scored 3 goals in the very next game I played! I'd of paid alot more than the $19.95 for that to happen!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely the best!, January 7, 2007
By 
Robert Petz (Rockton, IL USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Bobby Hull Hockey Shooting & Scoring (DVD)
After taking a short 17 years off from hockey, getting back into it seriously was a challenge. I took a few adult learn-to-play classes and there wasn't much, if any, focus on shooting. A majority of it was spent on passing and moving. After doing some homework, I took the plunge and bought the video. BEST MONEY EVER SPENT!! I was literally hitting the crossbar after watching the wrist shot segment a few times and practicing the principles as they were explained for about 20 minutes.

The explanations, demonstrations, dry-land walk & talk through as well as the on-ice real-time and slow motion video from multiple angles with on-screen highlighting is absolutely phenominal. It pointed out everything I was doing wrong. Within minutes I had corrected the basic problems and was hitting the goal. After about 20 minutes of practicing, I was putting the puck exactly where I wanted it. The folks I play with noticed the difference too. I scored 2 points last game; I was playing defense and hit them from the blue line! I am no longer the "sympathy pass" receiver and am now on the forward line instead of defense.

If you're in the market for a very detailed, step-by-step instructional dvd to get you shooting like a pro in short order, this is the video for you! I can't wait until the pond freezes over to get out and try the drills at the end of the video.

5.0 out of 5 stars shooting explained, October 22, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Bobby Hull Hockey Shooting & Scoring (DVD)
Having started playing hockey as an adult there were a lot of basics that I had missed....how to properly tape a stick, correct stick length,etc...this video covered them all. Clearly explains the fundamentals of shooting and more importantly scoring goals. My shot has improved a ton after applying the techniques described here....pick it up and watch for your name on the scoresheet after every game!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Brett shows how to score 500 goals!, March 20, 2002
By 
"woodso" (Haverhill, MA United States) - See all my reviews
First half of this 35 minute video is full of Brett Hull demonstrating and clearly explaining his technique in the wrist shot, snap shot, professional snap shot, one-timer, slap shot, backhand, as well as fakes and dekes. Outstanding repetition and slow motion footage. Second half of tape focuses on shooting drills and is a must watch for every youth hockey or high school hockey coach. Brett and Bobby Jr. do an excellent job together in this video. Several cameos of dear old Dad...Bobby Hull, Sr. A must for every player and hockey Dad!

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Tips to Improve your Shooting, February 19, 2001
By 
Joseph C. Landon Jr. (Lewisville, TX United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
There's probably nobody in the world who knows more about shooting the puck than the Hull family. Bobby Hull, Jr is the instructor while current NHL player and future hall of fame brother Brett demonstrate the basics of the forehand, snap, slap, backhand and one-timer shots. Even their father Bobby makes a couple brief appearances. They show slow and stop motion images displaying feet and stick position and weight transfer for every step of the shots. I've found this video helpful but you must be able to practice these techniques immediately on the ice to get maximum results, which can be difficult at times. Overall, it's a great tool to improve your game for all ages.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, February 10, 2002
By 
Barry (Massachusetts) - See all my reviews
This video repetitively shows all of the classic shot types in full speed, slow motion, different views, in different ways, in a professional and entertaining way. It also contains many good tips on shooting and scoring. I highly recommend it. I plan to view portions of it over and over again, working on one shot type at a time at the rink.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great video, December 29, 2000
By 
R. Lance Simon (Spokane, WA United States) - See all my reviews
Highly recommend this video! The Hull brothers do a great job showing kids and adults how to really shoot the puck with effectiveness. My kids, ages 5 and 7, love to watch and then go on the ice and try to emulate what they see. Good value!

The quality was great although I thought it was supposed to be a DVD. Great hints and tips for players. If you like the Hulls it's a great VHS.
