Product Description
By DAVE PELZ. Dave's approach to golf is easy to understand: 80 percent of the strokes golfers lose to par are determined by their play within 100 yards of the green - the crucial scoring game. A former physicist for NASA, Dave brings a scientific rigor to his research and instruction that has made him the top short-game expert in the world. Now Dave shares, for the first time, the understanding and techniques he has taught the pros, including a wide array of innovative tests and exercises for mastering those deceptive and high-pressure shots of the short game. The first book by best-selling author and internationally revered instructor Dave Pelz since Putt Like the Pros, this new offering can show you the way to lower scores by improving your short game. Packed with all the knowledge, charts, and photos needed to learn from the master, Dave Pelz's Short Game Bible is the essential book for every golfer. Covering everything golfers need to know about how to improve their short game, Dave Pelz's Short Game Bible can - and will - help you to consistently shoot lower scores.
Amazon.com Review
As the reigning rabbi on the mysteries of golf from 100 yards in, Pelz has earned the right to anoint his expansive instruction on the short game a "Bible." A scientist by training, he's analyzed the macros and dissected the micros to come up with a gospel for pros (Lee Janzen, Vijay Singh, and Anika Sorenstam, to name a few disciples) and weekend hackers alike. Pelz fills his scripture with photos, illustrations, charts, and plenty of sage advice on pitching, chipping, sandplay, putting, equipment, execution, mechanics, technique, practice, attitude, lots of questions, and plenty of answers. Much of the Short Game Bible is pretty sophisticated stuff aimed toward better players--or, at least, players who take their golf seriously. But its basics are appropriate to any skill level of the game: Accurately assess your own weaknesses, and then go about improving them systematically with the author's carefully researched and tested plan. It seems so obvious, but the truth is, most golfers either beat balls on the range in search of distance or slave over eight-foot putts on the practice green; they fail to pay enough attention to the shots in between. Pelz does the math for you here; his figures add up, so that yours can go down--the golfing equivalent of forgiving sins and absolving trespasses. --Jeff Silverman

 A must read for any golfer. July 12, 2010
Len Marshall (Tennessee)
You'll learn a great deal about the short game and will apply key ideas into your game. I now have three distances for each of my wedges, when I used to have only one. Thanks Dave for those instructions.
 Huge Impact July 5, 2010
Idaho Reader 44
This book has had a huge impact on my game, and it's an extremely entertaining read. I was consistently shooting in the mid-90's, and, within three months, I shot an 80. My play is better and consistent. And most importantly, I'm enjoying golf a lot more.
Well worth reading July 1, 2010
Mike
Been a 15 handicapper for a while. Read this book and have shaved a couple strokes off my score. Haven't played enough rounds to really see exact results, but I'll say I'm way more comfortable from 100yds in.
Comprehensive June 5, 2010
Roger Huberty
Dave takes his time getting to the point but so far have enjoyed reading all of his analysis of the golf game. Have not yet implemented his swing thoughts but am looking forward to trying them.
Absolutely amazing April 26, 2010
S. Filly
This book is absolutely phenomenal!! I already bought the putting bible... it's on the way... if it's anywhere close to as good as this, my game is about to be in excellent shape
