I purchased a dozen for the people who were not able to play with Jim that day.small consolation prize. I have had the pleasure of playing with Jim Furyk recently and he reconfirmed with me on the course that my handicap could be cut in half or better if I practiced the skills learned on this video (typical of most amateurs). They review the mechanics of each swing as well as how they think through the various shots presented around the green. This video is well worth the norminal investment. This video provides a fun way to finetune your short game. Funk and Furyk are good friends and have fun in the video. I am going to try and create this challenge match with a buddy somewhere as this would make the practice a lot more fun.
Spend your money on David Leadbetters short game video or DVD. Just medicore. It is much more comprehensive and informative.
I definitely would've wanted to see them go a full "18". It's well done and there are 3 other "lessons" on the disc that are good to see as well. As the other reviews mentioned, this is a quality DVD. I've seen other teaching dvds in the past and the production on this one is of very high quality. The match between Furyk and Funk is actually pretty short.
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. They'll show you how to do it. Chipping, pitch shots, bunker play, even that awkward 30-50 yard wedge shot is in there. Was it worth it. 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. 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.
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. An overall must-have.It was fun to watch Jim and Fred compete against each other while listening to their strategies. Great out-takes. Most of the instructional golf DVDs I've watched end up being quite boring after a while. I was really suprised by this DVD. Short Game Golf was extremely entertaining and very educational. I found it interesting that they often chose different shots for the same hole.
