3.0 out of 5 stars Excerpts..., January 29, 2000

By 

Donald W. Terry (New York) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Bobby Jones - How to Break 90 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Although not stated in the video descritption, this VHS is actually excerpts from the original Bobby Jones How to Break 90 "movies". This video excerpts the instructional portion of these movies. This is valuable, since Bobby Jones is able to discuss the essence of the golf swing and convey these thoughts in a concise manner. While a bit of Bobby's swing was dictated by the equipment of the time, the basics still apply today. It is unfortunate hat the entire mvies weren't included, as they were very humourous and contained the major actors of the time.

2.0 out of 5 stars May not be what you expect!, December 11, 2001

By 

Darrell W. Daniels (Decatur, Georgia United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Bobby Jones: Executive Gift Set (includes: How to Break 90, How I Play Golf - A Round of Golf, How I Play Golf - The Long Game, How I Play Golf - The Short Game [VHS] (VHS Tape)

If you're like me and have seen these mini-movies featured on the Golf Channel, you may be disappointed by the fact that the story lines have been cut out of these tapes. The charm and humor evident in the original films is all but gone, save the low key and warm delivery of Jones. It's too bad the producers of the video versions chose to drop the very thing that made these films worth seeing. While some of the instruction is sound (even for today's modern game) without the actors and storylines intact, these videos offer nothing that isn't in any other run-of-the-mill golf instruction video on the market.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bobby Jones was the greatest of all time....., July 21, 2002

This review is from: Bobby Jones: Executive Gift Set (includes: How to Break 90, How I Play Golf - A Round of Golf, How I Play Golf - The Long Game, How I Play Golf - The Short Game [VHS] (VHS Tape)

If you cant learn golf from these videos you shouldnt even attempt to play the game. Though the audio portion of these videos is a bit dated, (Jones speaks like hes reading from cue cards) the fundamentals are here. I have tried to emulate his swing but of course thats impossible, im not that flexible. The short game portion is excellent, very easy to understand, Jones explains as best he can how to execute certain shots, very good teaching aid. Recommended to all golfers who want to improve there game....I like the Cybervision part of the video, repeated swings of Jones from different angles, slow motion and at real time.... music is very eerie sounding..... He was the greatest, (Tiger wouldnt have stood a chance)
