Praise for Dave Pelz and the Scoring Game System: "Do I believe in Dave Pelz? I paid full price to go to his school, and it was the best money I've ever spent. I learned more about my short game and putting in three days than in all my previous years and lessons combined. I know for sure I could not have won my second U.S. Open without the help of Dave Pelz. He has sure improved my scoring game! I'm looking forward to working with him often in the years to come. I AM a believer." --Lee Janzen "Dave Pelz has added more irrefutable knowledge to golf instruction than any man alive. This new book is indeed the bible of the short game." --George Peper, editor-in-chief, Golf Magazine "In one day's work with Pelz, I learned more about putting than I had known my entire life. . . . None of us out here practiced our short games enough, but those of us who have paid attention to Pelz know it's the way to lower scores." --Curtis Strange "Dave Pelz is the most confident person, let alone coach, I've ever been around. His science-based knowledge is the best I've ever seen. I couldn't have won my sixth European Order of Merit without his help. His short-game system is improving my game, and has me the most excited I've ever been about my own ability to score." --Colin Montgomerie "Dave Pelz is the best. It's pure and simple. If you want to play your best, you work with the best . . . that's Pelz." --Steve Elkington

Great teaching tool
I have read this book before, about 12 - 15 years ago. I was playing golf regularly at a golf club where I belonged and with a regular group of guys. I wanted to improve my scoring and I heard of Dave Pelz and his instructions on how to improve scoring via mastering the short game. I read the book and practiced Dave’s swing methods and as a result, dropped 6 strokes off my handicap. I was playing to a 9 and got down to a 3. The book really works (if you really want to improve your scoring) but I need to revisit these techniques. Practice, practice, practice. Good luck.

Beyond fundamentals...
...and straight into "mentals". Dave takes the time and effort to break down the details of the short game for one reason, improvement of results. So many tasty tidbits in here. For example: When was the last time you had that wide open shot from 67 yards and you simply pulled any wedge from the bag and hoped it was right? Dave's method actually encourages using four of your wedges at practice, taking notes on results using three different swings with each and actually compiling the information on to the shaft of each, the different yardages that they produce. That's just one example of his method. I loved the depth of study that this book offers. Most importantly my short game has improved as has my thinking ability, actually knowing WHAT I need to be thinking about during different situations.Read full review

Dave Pelz's Short Game Bible
In golf you might use a driver maybe 14 times in a round but you'll use your short irons at least 4 times as often. Its a fact that a bad short game (within 100 yards of the pin) will add lots of extra strokes to your rounds right up there with three putts. Dave spent years following pro's on the PGA tour taking notes of what club they were using, how accurate their shots were and how far they hit each club. Using his twenty plus years of working for NASA as a physicist he came up with a system to help us average weekend warriors improve our game and lower our handicaps. Its well known that even with all the technological improvements with golf clubs handicaps have improved less than one stroke in the past 25 years. Utilizing Dave's short game system will help you lower your scores and thus your handicap. The book can be a bit of a hard read. You can tell rather quickly Dave's science background. There's a lot of numbers, charts and analysis throughout the book. But if you can read through this, your game will be the better for it. Having read the book and I'd already been keeping stats on my game (drive distance, fairways hit, up and downs, greens in regulation, distance of first putt and how many to hole out, etc.) I found my game improved by 6 strokes within 5 weeks of play and practice. Now I consistently break 100. I'm hoping that rereading it, keeping notes this time for use at the range, that I can finally break 90 on a more regular basis. Plus I intend to get his putting bible so that the dreaded three putt will no longer be a part of my game. Because if it works as well for my putting as the short game bible did for playing within a hundred yards of the pin breaking 80 will not be an unrealistic or unattainable goal.Read full review

Great golf short game book
Bought this book for my nephew, who is relatively new to golf, but improving rapidly. I bought this book years ago and it really transformed my short game. Not the longest hitter, I need to be able to get up and down. This book helped immeasurably in this area.

The best and most comprehensive of it's kind
As I approach middle age, like all golfers before me, I'm not nearly so long with my wood and irons as I used to be. And, like everyone else my age, I want to score as well, or nearly so, as I did when I was in my thirties and forties, even if it is from the middle tees rather than from the tips. You know, we've always heard about the short game (putting, pitching, chipping) spoken of as the "scoring" game, as that part of golf least practiced by the "weekend golfer" but ironically, the part most likely to have a positive effect upon his score. After reading this marvelous book by Dave Pelz, which covers all aspects of the the short game as mentioned above, I can tell you that everything we've heard over the years about the correlation between improving your short game and it's very happy effect on your scoring is absolutely true. I say this because, after reading Mr. Pelz's book, and following his techniques and suggestions, my score fell 4 strokes over the last 3 months and is still getting better. Now, mind you, it took dedicated study and practice to achieve this improvement but it was so worth it, so gratifying. Dave Pelz writes in a familiar and interesting way that is readily understood by the reader and I cannot recommend his book more highly. If you want your putts to roll more accurately, your pitches to land close to the flagstick rather than short, to stop "chili-dipping" or "skulling" your chips, do yourself a favor and buy this masterpiece.Read full review
