5.0 out of 5 stars High quality production, interesting format, October 12, 2006

This review is from: Short Game Golf with Jim Furyk & Fred Funk (DVD)

For 30$, it's like getting hours and hours of lessons from the #2 golfer in the world since you'll watch it over and over. At first I was worried that Jim would teach me to take his same unorthodox swing :) but this video is all short game and Jim's short game is fundamentally near perfect. Jim and Fred are good instructors and the material is easy to understand and apply. The production quality is outstanding - this isn't a low budget video, it looks like feature film quality and you can see and hear every detail of the beautiful TPC Saw Grass course. In the video you actually watch Jim and Fred compete against eachother in a short game match while they describe how they approach each shot and what desicions they make. Overall I was very please with this purchase and recommend it to anyone serious about the short game.

If anyone wants to improve their short game dramatically, get this dvd. You have two premier players in the world teaching you how to execute various short game shots, as they would play it, in a heads up format against each other. Chipping, pitch shots, bunker play, even that awkward 30-50 yard wedge shot is in there. They'll show you how to do it.

My score was in the the high 100's before the dvd, and now I average low 90's and high 80's as my average score. Was it worth it? Absolutely, My golf buddies thought I practice like a mad man to lower my score, when in fact, all I did was play it like the pros do.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Instruction and Very Entertaining, October 15, 2006

This review is from: Short Game Golf with Jim Furyk & Fred Funk (DVD)

I was really suprised by this DVD. Most of the instructional golf DVDs I've watched end up being quite boring after a while. Short Game Golf was extremely entertaining and very educational. Great out-takes. An overall must-have.

It was fun to watch Jim and Fred compete against each other while listening to their strategies. I found it interesting that they often chose different shots for the same hole. The production quality is top-notch and they used some fantastic graphics to illustrate strategy on each hole.

Fred Funk's bonus lessons are great for the range. This DVD has inspired me to spend less time with my driver and more with my wedges.
