For the golfer looking to dust off his or her clubs and kick off the golf season, How to Break 90 is a wise investment of 35 minutes. Some might be turned off by the old black-and-white footage, and Jones isn't the most charismatic of speakers, but the lessons he preaches are the timeless fundamentals around which every golfer should build a game. Not all great golfers are good teachers, but Bobby Jones explains the rudiments in clear, concise terms in this footage filmed in 1931 and 1932. Speaking in a slow, easy Southern drawl, dressed sharply in a white shirt and tie, the original golf prodigy covers basics such as grip, setup, backswing, downswing, and draws and fades in a classic style reminiscent of Ben Hogan's classic book Ben Hogan's Five Lessons: The Modern Fundamentals of Golf. This video contains Sybervision's usual slow-motion images of the golf swing set against a black background, impressing the image on the viewer's mind. Modern golfers playing with graphite shafts and exotic metal heads will notice that Jones had an unusually long backswing and active legs as he had a swing built around flexible wooden shafts common in his day. It is a beautiful swing, however, and most of the fundamentals are the same ones being taught today. For the amateur golfer and golf fan, this video is a rare treasure from the film archives of golf.

Of the four Sybervision Bobby Jones tapes, How to Break 90 is the best tape to start with as it covers the basic swing fundamentals. --Eugene Wei
