Some good nuggets of golf instruction August 3, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
After viewing the "Swing the Handle" video collection, I found the main concept of swinging the handle fairly interesting and valuable. While it's not "wall to wall" full of original golf information, it does contain a number of good "nuggets" of golf instruction. They include keeping your body behind the golf shaft during the entire swing, tips on developing the right rhythm, tempo, and timing in the swing, and keeping a positive but realistic attitude about your golf game. I think that the video series was a little long for the amount of actual instruction that is included, but with a little patience, you can get through it and benefit from Mr. Merrins' golf tips. I would say that I would have been disappointed if I had paid the original price for the videos when they first came out, but at the current price of about $25, it's well worth it and the information may help your golf game.
Excellent, with a Wealth of Principles January 8, 2008

So very many of your everyday golfers could learn so much, play so much better and find enjoyment out of the game if they learned from this DVD series!
This set contains a wealth of easily explained, valuable, and usable information. The "Little Pro" teaches about swinging (the handle) in the most efficient and effective way, how to get the resulting ball flight you want, the achievement of rhythm and tempo, connectedness and so much more.
I'm sorry I didn't get the set earlier. I wasn't interested in seeing celebrities swing a golf club...but it works well.
I do have to agree with the first reviewer on a couple of points. It would be great if the producers came out with a more concise version.
I am also not a fan of the chipping methodology noted - but sometimes it works well for golfers that are not very accomplished.
Also, Mr. Merrins is a very gentle, low key man and some times the pacing becomes slow. Just be aware of that and don't let it keep you from owning this DVD set. Its great!

The ultimate in sound and proven golf instruction that stands the test of time and keeps things simple.
 the "Handle" Concept is GREAT; but the Video is not so hot October 18, 2007

First of all, "swing the handle" is a great concept. If you can learn that in the first video, it would worth a lot more than what you paid for the video. This will cure most of major swing problems out there - slice, hood, fat, and thin, etc.
Second good idea from the video is the sand play. The "tee in the sand" concept will make you a good sand player.
Some other ideas are not so hot, e.g. chipping. You DO NOT want to land the ball outside the green, as he suggested in the video.
The biggest problem with this video -- it is too long. More editting work should be done to make the total time 2 hours, and try not to cover everything in golf (he probably he knows that he is not super at some aspects of golf playing). Adding them to the video just diverts viewers' attention away from his core concepts.
