Product Description

Fed up with trying to imitate the pros, buying the latest expensive equipment, and seeing your handicap stay the same? "Dave Pelz's Short Game Bible" gives advice on how to lower your scores by improving your short game. Pelz shows how to find your own personal weaknesses and how to improve them. Providing all the knowledge, charts and photos needed to learn from a master, the book is aimed at every golfer who's looking to improve his or her game. Dave's approach to golf is easy to understand: 80 per cent of the stroke golfers lose to par are determined by their play within 100 yards of the green - the crucial scoring game. The most important and the least focused-on aspect of golf, your short game, can make or break your entire game.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great theory, but you have to work for the benefits, 31 Dec 2001

By A Customer

First of all, no question that this book is close to THE short game bible. If (like me) you come from a technical background, you'll love this book - Pelz builds up his points in painful detail. However, only go for it if you honestly believe you can commit serious time (an absolute minimum of 3 hours a week) to short game practice. If, like most people, you can't, then go for Tom Watson's classic Getting Up And Down. Pelz is very technical indeed and unless (again, like me) you've just been laid off you won't have the time to put this into practice in the course of one season. No wonder the pros love it though. Oh, one more thing - some of his assumptions are understandably US-centric, so if you too play on a links course you can take some of his spin / stop predictions with a large, but windproofed, pinch of salt.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best and most logical scientific approach to golf ever, 2 Sep 1999

By A Customer

Dave Pelz looks at golf in a simple way: the closer the ball goes to your intended target, the lower your scores will be. Studying the professional game for years he found that the best players in the world were amazingly inaccurate when it came to wedgeplay. Needless to say that there was scope for improvement and Pelz describes a straightforward approach to the short game. It seems to have worked very well for all the pros who have committed themselves to it. You need time to read this book and then you need time to practice but once you applied the techniques described, your scores will definitely fall - and you will learn how fruitless it is to beat five-irons and drivers on the driving-range.

4.0 out of 5 stars Sort through to find the useful information, 13 Mar 2001

By A Customer

I was surprised when I received this book at how big it was. When I began reading I understood why. Dave Pelz has obviously put a lot of thought and time into his reasons for writing this book, and feels the need to tell us every last detail. Certainly this is important and does give a greater understanding of why the short game is so important to everyone's golf game. However I can't help but think that he could have cut down on a lot of what is written. When the book finally gets to the instruction, it is excellent. It covers every aspect of chipping, pitching and sand play you could want to know. Covering each technique thoroughly and in simple, easy to understand language which is accompanied by some good illustrating photography.
