has anybody bought this system? if so does the fundamentals and drills actually help? the ad guarantees that after reading the material and applying it (w/practice of course) that you will drop shots and eventually break 80 consistantly. I was just wondering if any body has tried it yet. Also let me know of any other "self-instruction" materials that have worked for ya.

no, it's not. It's like offering a pill, for curing "All diseases". No matter what is your problem - cold, allergies, broken limb, cancer - take this pill and you'll feel great. Yeah right.

Every player has different problems, which require personal approach. There is no "quick fix" or "fix it all" in golf. Save up the money and get 1 lesson at your local pro ($50 ?). You'll be much better off spending 1/2 hr with a professional than buying this.

rafi is rigt, theres no one way to break 80. golf is quite an expensive activity and putting money into teaching pros is always worth it.
i will say this though, if you dont mind wasting a few bucks go ahead and buy that video so we can all hear just how ridiculous it is :)

I actually found a co-worker that did purchase the program. As far a riduculous goes I would have to say that it isn't. I read the program and what it basically teaches is the "basics" of the golf swing. Breaks it down into simple steps. No blockbuster new techniqes, but solid instruction on hip turn, balance, shoulder turn and so on. As far as breaking 80 goes, practicing these drill could and will help, but people need to realize that (and the author even says as much) this instruction is to "give you the tools and drills to practice and work into your own game". As I said for a beginner looking to drop some shots and not break the bank it may not be a bad idea.

    • Yeah, that's right. I remember now. Pia Nilsson. I've read a couple of her books. "Be A Player" and "Every Shot Must Have A Purpose".  I read them back maybe 10 years ago. ... maybe 5? ... pre-pandemic anyway.  Good memory. 
    • Having had the opportunity to live and work in a few different countries, I've encountered some golf traditions, whether they are well-established customs or unique experiences at local courses. While not all of these are widely practiced, they highlight the diversity and creativity in the golfing world. 1. Japan - The O-Bon Golf Festival In Japan, during the O-Bon (lantern) Festival, I've seen golf courses hosting night golf events with glowing balls and lantern-lit fairways. It's a serene and beautiful way to combine golf with culture.  2. Scotland - The Guising Golfers In Scotland, around Halloween, I've come across golfers participating in "guising," where they dress up in costumes and play a round of golf. It adds a festive twist and a lot of fun to the game. 3. South Korea - The New Year's Honbae In South Korea, golfers play a round of golf on New Year's Day, followed by a celebratory meal and drinks (9th hole and after the game). It's a time for camaraderie and positive intentions for the year ahead. Besides new year's, on higher end courses, they often break on the 9th hole for some light food and drinks like fancy ramen and makgeolli rice wine (ordered in advance). 4. Australia - The Outback Golf Challenge (I have not experienced this one myself) In Australia, there is apparently an Outback Golf Challenge, where golfers navigate rough terrain and face unconventional obstacles. It's considered a true test of skill and adaptability (but hasn't produced many PGA golfers 😉 ). 5. Finland - The Midnight Sun Golf Tournament (I have not experienced this one myself) In Finland, the Midnight Sun Golf Tournament is where golfers play late into the evening under the perpetual twilight of the summer months. The endless daylight makes it a truly unique event. While these traditions may not be universally established, they represent the variety of golfing experiences around the world. I'm curious if any of you have encountered or participated in unique or local golf traditions, whether internationally or closer to home.
    • It's from "Every Shot Has a Purpose" which was co-written by one of Annika's coaches. Decent read about reducing uncertainty and committing to the golf shot.
    • Ah, I didn't realize this was about standing over the ball versus time to play the shot. Definitely two different things there. Yea I would imagine being static over the ball/taking a long time over the ball does make things worse in the long run, hence all the waggles guys will do before pulling the trigger.
    • I'm not sure who said it first but I've seen it a lot. There's this "think box" vs "play box" theory. I've also seen it with a planning vs doing line on the ground. The idea is basically you stand away from the ball (a couple feet) and do your "think box". This is where you do your planning, your swing cues, your practice swings (if you believe in practice swings.) All of that is done in the "Think Box". Then you step into your "play box" address the ball and hit it. Sometimes it's done with a imaginary line on the ground. You do all of the think box stuff behind the line. Then once you cross the line you step up and hit it.  Here's Annika Sorenstam demonstrating the "Think box" and "Play box": So, Annika's time over the ball is really short. Because she did all of that other stuff not over the ball, but in her "Think box".  There are lots of variations on this theme. But I think you get the idea.
