Editorial Reviews

Excelling in golf has very little to do with hitting hard. It is about knowing where you are going and how to get there. And with the help of this DVD, you will learn this too. Your guides are the top golfer Robert Karlsson (winner of 5 tournaments on the European Tour) and the coach to the top golfers, Simon Holmes (who has trained such world-famous players as Karlsson, Seve Ballesteros and Nick Faldo).

This review is from: Golf Strategies With Robert Karlsson and Simon Holmes (DVD)

One of the Best Golf Instruction DVD's I have watched.

I saw all 2 1/2 hours of it last night and found it full of great advice.

The format is in two parts; firstly a lesson on the practice range and then a playing lesson on the golf course. Robert Karlsson a top European player is the "student" and Simon Holmes his highly respected Coach.

They go through the process of analysing Roberts recent tour performance and working on correcting a few faults. The process they use is fascinating and can be applied to all levels of golfer.

The playing lesson is very well presented and includes an interactive ability to spot the golf balls location on the course after each shot, but I did not use this.

Karlsson is an exceptionally good golfer and finishes the round several strokes under par. I found it interesting to see how such a great score is achieved, stroke by stroke.

The main message of the dvd is that amateurs can improve significantly if the focus on their short game in practice and learn to minimize risk on the course by avoiding trouble. This requires a strategic view of each hole and this is well explained by Karlsson and Holmes on each hole and in many different shot situations.

I recommend this dvd to golfers of all levels of ability. It would help beginners and intermediate players and be valuable even for very skilled players
