This video features Ben Crenshaw and Tom Kite, two of Harvey's pupils. Their admiration for 'their pro' shows. The video examines a wide range of shots, handles the mental game well and reiterates -shotmaking is the name of the game- not form.

Harvey Penick was someone I had heard about. But now this video makes everything clear. He has the ability to explain and demonstrate Golf so that you can see how to improve your game.

Highly recommended. a must have. Thank you Mr. Penick. END

Golf basics that anyone can understand. Mr. Penick's illustrious career as a teacher of the sport he loved, was straight forward and easy to understand. The high speed slow motion video was particularly helpful.

The Little Red Book is one of the greatest golf instructional books of all time, and I would argue the greatest. It's simple golf, it teaches the game and the swing without the technical jargin that too many people get caught up in. The only flaw with the book is its lack of illustration, though must concepts are simple enough not to need them.

The Little Red Video offers images of those concepts. It's one thing to talk about "clipping the tee" and another to see Ben Crenshaw make a smooth swing with that thought. There is a saying in art, "The great artist is the simplifier," well, I think that goes in golf, too. I strongly reccomend this book to anyone who loves golf--it's forever changed my game and my outlook.

I am a 54 year old beginner. I read The Little Red Book but I learn more easily from visual demonstrations. This video is easy to follow and has given me a whole winter's worth of things to work on. I don't need a bunch of theory just some simple drills to help me. This video is great for the basics.

I ordered this product on 7/13, it was suppose to arrive by 8/4, it is now 8/25 and it has not yet arrived. I sent them a e-mail message inquiring about the late shipment, was informed it was lost in the mail, ya--right!!! Still not received a credit-nothing-will not order from this supplier in the future.

This is an excellent video if the viewer can stand 15 minutes of back-patting. The step by step instructions and imagery make this a great instructional video. Sure wish they did some video magic to Harvey, the camera doesn't do his antiquity justice.
