Spike I've got the Absolute Snooker DVD with Jimmy and Alan.Originally Posted by spike View Post
Overall I would say its a good dvd, with some nice points on practice routines and the footage of jimmy's 155 and the frame between the two of them is worth the price of the dvd alone.
If I had one minor gripe about the dvd though it would be this:
When you compare the instructional content on the basics of the game with the likes of the davis, griffiths & Karnehm series it comes up slightly lacking.
All the points are touched on, the grip, the bridge, the stance, pre-shot routine etc but I dont think there explained as well as perhaps they could have been. If you've seen all the other snooker coaching resources and know what your doing round the table you'll be able to follow everything their saying. However, if you were a total beginner (which i know your not) then you wouldn't get as much out of these dvds as you would some of the others on the market.
Overall though a good dvd to have in the collectionComment

Yes its a great watch although when I first watched it I thought Jimmy and Alan was a really strane partnership for the coaching aspect.Always play snooker with a smile on your face...You never know when you'll pot your last ball.

I always thought it was an unusual partnership with those two doing an instructional DVD themselves."Statistics won't tell you much about me. I play for love, not records."

It is quite a good DVD. Not necessarily the best in the coaching side of it but interesting to see them play each other and talk about their games etc. Overall, a good DVD.Comment

Or, you could download it using clipnabber.com, and burn it to DVD. That's probably what the guy at www.snooker-dvds.com does.Originally Posted by bongo View Posthttp://i50.tinypic.com/oi62rr.jpg
