5.0 out of 5 stars Superb coaching DVD for the beginner or improver, 7 Feb 2006
By A Customer
I am fairly new to the world of golf, and I have watched a few golf DVDs that provide instruction on the basics of the game. However, none have come close to the clear and detailed information provided by this DVD.

Something that most beginners and high-handicappers need help with is their swing, and you will do well to find better instruction on building a consistent swing than the one Simon Holmes provides. Holmes covers all aspects of the swing, breaking it down and slowly progressing in stages to the full swing. He also demonstrates a number of drills you can try on the practice range to cement the aspects you need to improve on. There are additional shorter sections on Bunkers, Chipping and Putting which also provide useful techniques you can use on the course to help improve your game and your scoring.

It is very welcome to find a DVD not aimed at the US market - the coach is British and the DVD concentrates solely on the content with no extra baggage. The content doesn't feel scripted at all and the presentation is simple, effective and different in style to the coaching lessons on say, the Golf Channel.

In an ideal world, I would like to have seen more detail on the short game, but the content provided is more than enough to warrant buying this DVD.

It's the next best thing to visiting the Pro at your local course and I hope Simon produces more DVDs in the future. Currently (February 2006) this is the No 1 Golf DVD and deservedly so.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very comprehensive golf lesson, 26 Sep 2004
This guy knows what he is talking about! Every aspect of the game is talked about in great detail, and Simon Holmes make it all seem very straight forward. The DVD is set up so that you can focus on different aspects of the game, such as the swing, putting, chipping, and bunkers. Then each of the sections has many sub sections that explore the area in detail.

After just one watch of the dvd, I had picked up many aspects of my game that i was doing wrong and the corrections made have already lowered my score and made me more confident on the course.

Overall, i would highly recommend this dvd for a beginner or an experienced golfer as i think it has much to offer. Simon Holmes is an excellent coach, making it look so easy, especially some of the chip shots he plays, and i am sure the advice given here will be a great benifit to your golf game.

5.0 out of 5 stars You won't regret buying this, 24 Jul 2005
By M. Potter (Surrey United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
I can't really add much more to laurentiuz's review apart from to emphasise how good this DVD is. What sets it apart from other products that I've seen is the way in which Simon Holmes explains WHY you should do things in a certain way and HOW faults at address and in your swing actually manifest themselves in the end result.

Sure this is explained in other products, but it's just the way that he explains it that makes it so clear. They've also taken the time to give an exhaustive description of all the components of the swing and how they fit together, with drills/exercises in between, allowing you to built up your technique.

Overall, the DVD is around 2.5hrs long, so it's very good value. I very much recommend it.
