Binding: VHS TapeEAN: 0705109000530 Format: Closed-captioned, Collector's Edition, Color, Digital Sound, NTSC Number Of Items: 1 Release Date: September 01, 1999 Running Time: 40 minutes Editorial Review: Amazon.com: The Hull family has long been synonymous with hockey scoring, and Bobby Hull Jr. hosts this very informative video that would be of obvious value to any young hockey player. Hull, a professional coach, starts out with the basics, talking about proper stick size and even demonstrating his preferred method of taping a stick. This nuts-and-bolts approach continues with Hull, along with his brother, NHL star Brett Hull, showing the proper way to hold the stick in your hands and how to assume the "ready position" on the ice. The production of this video is intentionally basic, but there are very good slow-motion pictures of particular shots. Hull provides a cogent explanation of the particular scoring zones on the net, and shows how a player can get into position to "have more net to shoot at." His father, hockey legend Bobby Hull, appears briefly to offer advice on passing, and the later segments of the video showcase drills that players can perform to hone their skills. A diagram of each drill is shown on the screen, and then young players demonstrate the moves required. This video has real substance, and it does a good job of teaching hockey fundamentals. --Robert J. McNamara Description: This instructional video teaches you the proper shooting and scoring techniques.

 Rating: - MY SON HAS WATCHED THIS 50 TIMES!My son is 13 and plays in Los Angeles for his midget AAA team. He has easily watched this dvd 50 times to the point I feel as if I know Bobby Hull Jr! His voice comes out of my son's room every weekend! That would be annoying to most parents but my son has been scoring alot more goals and has even trying to explain to me the mechanics of scoring goals like Brett Hull. He was going to spend more time skateboarding and playing football but since he has improved so much at hockey and enjoying it ...

Rating: - Brett shows how to score 500 goals!First half of this 35 minute video is full of Brett Hull demonstrating and clearly explaining his technique in the wrist shot, snap shot, professional snap shot, one-timer, slap shot, backhand, as well as fakes and dekes. Outstanding repetition and slow motion footage. Second half of tape focuses on shooting drills and is a must watch for every youth hockey or high school hockey coach. Brett and Bobby Jr. do an excellent job together in this video. Several cameos of dear old Dad...Bobby Hull, ... Read More Rating:  - He Shoots, He ScoresBrett Hull is one of the fiercest scorers in the NHL today, so it is appropriate that he's brother puts out an instructional tape on shooting and scoring using Brett for examples. Bobby Hull, Jr. actually does pretty well in front of the camera in his explanations of the shooting techniques so this video doesn't come across as cheesy. This video deals in teaching the wrist-shot, backhand, snap-shot and slap shot, and how each shot basically builds on the one before it. Bobby does well ... Read More Rating: - ExcellentThis video repetitively shows all of the classic shot types in full speed, slow motion, different views, in different ways, in a professional and entertaining way. It also contains many good tips on shooting and scoring. I highly recommend it. I plan to view portions of it over and over again, working on one shot type at a time at the rink. |
