Well..... I'm never watching a new golf video ever again. No stupid overlays, no counter productive jump cuts. No overhype because of people's own lack of true confidence. This video is about playing the game to do well and enjoy it. Thank you Bobby
The utter simplicity of the advice he offers in this video and part 1 is refreshing. With modern content being put out by hundreds of golf pros every day, it's almost impossible to figure out what's right because so many people are teaching different things. We've gotten to a point where we're so technical nowadays when in contrast Bobby was not. I'd bet if you took an amateur golfer and gave them 1 hour with Bobby vs. one of the modern golf pros teaching today the contrast of how much better the player would be after the hour with Bobby would be astounding. KISS - Keep It Simple Stupid....
Scarier to think we are all running out of time. Do you golf a lot? Notice how many animals, birds,frogs,fish, turtles you see? How about the trees? In good shape? Scallops cost $25 a pound. Just saying. Bugs on your windshield any more. The prognosis is poor.
go look at part one. there's some even better shots in there, and a broken camera too!! th-cam.com/video/uO7qMNUz2_Q/w-d-xo.html you don't see golf vids like that any more!!
@@lazy_dad Seriously! How have I not seen videos with the golf ball whizzing past the camera?!?! Seems like someone needs to recreate this with a cheap drone...
Yes I know. Its so smooth. Like Freddie Couples. Both cup the wrist at the top. I play my best when I do not follow modern swing instruction. Cupped wrist lets you feel the weight of the club and with a slight pause at the top creates that effortless power.
243 yards with a 2 wood up hill at Riviera country club, and I was just watching the LPGA today and a few girls had 245 into the green with a modern-day 3 wood and were coming up 25-40 yards short into a slight breeze.( and it was a flat golf hole ) Bobby was using Hickory shafted club , wood head , with an old Haskell ball. ( It was the first rubber-core golf ball ) Just goes to show how powerful his swing truly was ! I wanted this Golf My Way DVD set when it came out on the goldf channel but it was very expensive.
I luv watching his video. He teaches basics. Everyone has there own style but following basics will always take you a long way. I have been working on this and my swing and contact are improving a lot because of these videos
I've never seen these amazing recordings of the Legendary Bobby Jones (Now bookmarked for many references) The teachings of golf these days are far too complicated with many instructors having 100's of videos that just comfuse you. I am never watching any other golf instruction videos on TH-cam, except those of one instructor that I've been following for years (who has a simple philosophy), Ben Hogan and Phil Mickelson for the short game. It's a testament to the legacy of Bobby Jones that footage from nearly 100 years ago makes more sense to me in the past hour than any of the Top 100 golf instructors teachings I've been watching for the past 20 years!! I only own 3 golf books. Down The Fairway, The Five Lessons and Harvey Penick's Little Red Book!
Another book you might enjoy is "The Education of a Golfer" (a biography of Sam Snead, wriiten when he was in his 60's). At one time this was the most popular book among the pro's. A fun read about his life, his golf, and lessons learned (including golf tips, gambling and betting, playing under pressure etc.). Hope you check it out (PS agree with your comments). MG
Watch most any utube video today and they say Amateur as being a bad golfer which is wrong . Bobby Jones was a lifelong amateur and beat all golfers in open championships he simply couldn't accept money for winning. He won thirteen majors and retired at age of twenty eight years old. He went months without touching a club and usually won. Those facts to me makes him probably the greatest of them all. He was practicing law while winning many of his majors.
Bobby Jones was a lifelong amateur,he won thirteen majors while going months without touching a club and usually won. He retired at 28years old in 1930 from championship golf. He was practicing law while winning many of his majors. Those facts makes him one of the greatest players in history of not the greatest. Not many could go without playing or practicing and then win a major, he did over and over.
@@MrNmitch17 whatever tittle you want to give him... he was amazing and way different than any modern player(Pro) or PGA coach who teach completely different techniques. He is definitely worth listening to. Thanks for the correction.
i always wondered if these golf movies were made to be watched just as entertainment in movie theaters or for sale to pro shops or golfers. the first gold instruction videos i guess. i've been watching them for years on vhs tape.
Originally they were played before a movie in theaters they called them shorts and we're very popular, later in the seventies the film was tracked down and put out on VHS later to dvd

Yup exactly he'd get them to nail the one thing that gets lost in the distance speed boom now that tempo..it's perfect every single time
Scary to think this is approaching 100 years old.
scary? time waits for no man!

That raised heel though...I was in a bad mood today until I seen this. Amazing to watch and still relevant tid bits today.
The game is so simple. I over complicate it. Bobby jones was the best player of the game ever and what a swing.
Outstandingly entertaining. What a gentleman..
western civilization truly is in decline when you see what our fathers were like
Those first 2 shots when the camera was in the tree is such a great piece of art
go look at part one. there's some even better shots in there, and a broken camera too!!

GREATEST golf instruction of all-time!!!
Extraordinary Bobby Jones. Rotate and you will be great.
He had such a fluid swing like water in a flowing river it just looks so one piece and simple n relaxed

Like watching a great artist at work, casually chipping off the tree within 8 feet is insane
Loved these videos thank you 🙏
Really good camera work for these videos. Impressive
Thank you for uploading and preserving this.
My pleasure!
Mr. Jones was amazing. Just imagine him with modern equipment.
Straight to the top of the World Rankings
Thank you for posting these. I'm now going to look up some golf club development and early history information.
so cool

Bobby Jones is amazing, he is true pro; making everything look so simple. I am taking notes an incorporating his advice.
Exactly wrong: the great Bobby Jones was not a pro, he was an amateur. GOAT? Maybe.

i wish i could just speak like this man
same!
I think this is at Riviera in West Los Angeles/Bel Air area. The clubhouse looks like it, the hills, even the smog.
Looks like it
Top 3 golfer of all time!
And he ain’t 2 or 3 !

Remind me to wear a shirt, a tie and plus-fours next time I golf and all will be sweet!
The guy hitting left-handed is Joe E. Brown, comedian and movie star.
Bobby would have loved to play today’s equipment
Does anybody know where he's playing ? Franklin Parks 12th in Boston is the Bobby Jones hoke...
243 yards to 2 feet....
The chap asking for advice at 16:30 looks and sounds like James Cagney. Pretty cool if it was....
It is Cagney.
If the face didn't tell you, the voice does.
Joe E. Brown plays the bad golfer.
The uploader cut Edward G. Robinson’s part.
It is James Cagney.
So much fun to watch! What a player. Hope he was saved, as i should like to speak with ol’ Bob in Heaven. PTL
Don’t preach your hocus pocus here, please.
Bit presumptuous to assume you’ll be there. 😂
That's me about 6 times per round. 11:23
Somebody tell me how back in 19 nothing they had a better camera angle and technology - with the ball shooting through the camera after impact
Riviera Country Club!!!!
You have just discovered where all golf teachers learned to teach. Even if they didn't know it...
This dude is ripping a ball 240yrd with an old spoon. My mind is 🤯. 5:09
Nearly 100 years old
And he's nailing it with hickory clubs
@@tgates811imagine him with a Ping G410
The best golf show on TH-cam thanks Les from Perth WA ⛳🏌️⛳🏌️⛳🏌️💯💯💯👍👍👍
5:45
245 yards,......rails a 3 wood to 3 feet!
ahahahahahah
That's about 280+ with today's equipment & balls!!
@@nicholasdemetriades9154 Jones would be longer than Mcilroy...like Daly in his prime.
he would hit a modern 3 word and ball 325 yards
What's with that wierdo muzzling the lady?
they want to learn from bobby not listen to her talking every second
Haha for real that's why I checked the comments.
From this time period it would me more correct to say why does he have his hand over that "broads" mouth? lol
The "weirdo muzzling the lady" is none other than James Cagney. He's just pretending to be a tough guy, just like he did in his early motion pictures.
@@judhudon6235 cool story, he’s still a weirdo muzzling the lady acting like a “tough guy” 🤣 😂
