Bobby Jones enters the digital age for the first time ever with the release of the most famous golf instructional films ever made, How I Play Golf and How To Break 90. Golf enthusiasts will enjoy more than 3 full hours of 18 timeless instructions from the games most cherished name. These films are considered a mainstay of the game. Bobby teaches both the fundamentals and the nuances of the game to some of Hollywoods most recognized names including W.C. Fields, James Cagney, Edward G. Robinson, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., Loretta Young and many more. Each episode starts with a humorous skit featuring the actors and then Dr. Jones steps in to solve the problem. The first part of the 12-episode series How I Play Golf was filmed and produced by Warner Bros. in 1931, just after Bobby Jones won the heralded Grand Slam. The initial series was a hit and Warner invited Bobby back to Hollywood in 1933 to create an additional 6-episode series called How To Break 90. All of these episodes are included in this new DVD release. This incredible DVD set includes three fully re-mastered DVDs featuring all 18 episodes of How I Play Golf and How To Break 90; a DVD Chapter Description Booklet; a Bobby Jones in Hollywood 8-page Color Booklet; and comes in a Deluxe Embossed Collectors Tin Box.

Classic and Wonderful
It is fascinating to listen to Bobby Jones describe how the game was played nearly a century ago and to watch him demonstrate the fundamentals of good play.
Excellent, entertaining instruction. And a really interesting insight into how the equipment and jargon have changed since Jones originally recorded this material in the early 1930's.
Product not as advertised
I cannot rate the content of the DVDs because I haven't watched them but since they have been around for many years, I expect they will be fine. I was, however, very disappointed that the product I received was not the product advertised on Amazon. The DVDs were supposed to be packaged in a deluxe collectors tin but they were not; they arrived in a non descript plastic case. The DVDs were a gift for someone and the tin would have made it more of a keepsake.
