Worth having in your golfing arsenal!
I'm a high handicapper so luckily don't have too many bad habits to "unlearn" before I start challenging Tom Watson's record (plus I've got about another 20+ years)! Although this DVD is very American in style (i.e. simplifying everything to an annoying level - "cutters" and "tightest jeans" in reference to your abs) it really is worth persevering as the information contained is worth at least a few sessions with your local PGA pro PLUS a sports physio - which would easily set you back £200+! As with all exercise, there is no silver bullet - you have to earn the flexibility/strength! Definitely worth having this in your arsenal of golf gear! PS: 4 stars instead of 5 from a philosophical standpoint - in other words, aspire for greatness!
