Putting has often been described as an art, but the author of this book, by trade a physicist, has analyzed it as never before, using scientific principles. Pelz has come up with a system to perfect your putting stroke - or at least to come as close to perfect as humanly possible.

Dave Pelz's Putting Bible is the second book in a four-book series, the Dave Pelz Scoring Game Series. Over 150,000 readers have purchased Dave Pelz's Short Game Bible after just its first year of release publication, making the book an instant classic. Now, let Dave help you shape up your game on the greens with his new Putting Bible, which is sure to make all other putting manuals obsolete. Dave Pelz looks at putting, golf's least-understood skill, as no one has ever approached it before. Because a putt is the terminal shot on every hole and there is no possibility of recovery from short misses, putts count almost a disproportionate amount. Every golfer knows a 2-foot putt counts the same as a 300-yard drive--one stroke. And while the putting stroke is only one of several types of swings golfers make, it accounts for nearly half of all the swings made--43 percent--and perhaps as much as 80 percent of all the anguish and frustration involved in the game. These are some of the reasons every golfer needs Dave's insights into the putting game and the simplicity he brings to improving their ability to putt. Putting is also different in another way: It is one of the few skills in all of sport in which any player, regardless of size, strength, speed, gender, or education, can compete equally with--and have a realistic chance to surpass the skills of--the best professionals in the world. As Dave explains, putting is actually simple to understand and do. Once golfers grasp his concepts, they can perform on the greens as never before. Using decades of scientific research from studying thousands of golfers, Dave shows readers the simplicity of putting that escapes most golfers and lays out the fifteen well-defined building blocks of the putting game that each of us already has and owns. This comprehensive guide from the internationally revered master of the short game and putting game--packed with charts, photos, and easy-to-understand instruction--will be the essential volume for all golfers who want to take strokes off their score with better putting. A former NASA physicist and founder of the World Putting Championship, Dave brings a scientific rigor to his instruction that has made him the top putting expert in the world. Observing and teaching thousands of golfers to better their scores, Dave's body of knowledge in putting is unequaled. By uncovering the mysteries of this part of the game, Dave Pelz's Putting Bible raises putting instruction to a new level. Dave Pelz's Scoring Game Schools and clinics are renowned worldwide, attracting top players like Jesper Parnevik, Tom Kite, Colin Montgomerie, two-time U.S. Open Champion Lee Janzen, Vijay Singh, Steve Elkington, and many LPGA players including Annika Sorenstam and Liselotte Neumann.

Ten Minutes a Day to Better Putting

James A. Frank

Golf

"All golfers, even the best ones, get into rough predicaments due to errant shots or bad breaks. How they recover from those situations determines how well they will score. In Dave Pelz's Damage Control, Pelz explains how you can improve your scores by intelligently and methodically handling trouble situations on the golf course."

Dave Pelz's Damage Control: How to Avoid Disaster Scores

Eddie Pelz

Joel Mendelman

Pelz Golf Institute

From the author of the phenomenally popular Short Game Bible and Putting Bible comes a third golf instruction title, focusing on a vital aspect of the game. Dave Pelz's training as a NASA scientist gives him a keen understanding of the importance of precision and he is the foremost authority on golf's short game. In Damage Control he explains how most golfers play below their handicap for most of their round - but then ruin their game by playing badly on just three or four holes. This book teaches how to control that damage: the 'set-up-ology' that will enable you to set up trouble shots correctly; the 'red-flag touch' that warns you when you're in danger of making a bad hole worse, and a proper 'damage control mentality'. Pelz is one of the few instructors whose books golfers read from cover to cover, implement every single one of his tips - and regularly see their handicaps drop like a stone. Damage Control is a must-have for any golfer looking to find an edge in their game.

From beginners to low-handicappers to PGA Tour professionals, every golfer out there has a shot they fear. Some stand over shots so frozen with fear that they can't bear to swing their club. Others, filled with anxiety, butcher shots they might otherwise hit reasonably well. After conducting worldwide surveys to determine which shots golfers fear the most, master golf instructor Dave Pelz has gathered the results of his broad-sweeping research to create a methodology and conditioning process that is proven to conquer their "Top 10" most feared shots. Golf Without Fear takes an unprecedented visual approach to tackling the most difficult shots in the game - it's the first book to use "Golfer's Eye View(t)," a technique developed for Pelz by hall of fame golf photographer Leonard Kamsler. Golfer's Eye View(t) drops readers straight into the action, enabling them to visualize and prepare for their most feared shots before stepping out on the course. Pelz delivers a hands-on method of inst

Dave Pelz's Putting Bible (Dave Pelz Scoring Game)

This guide presents Dave Pelz's approach to improving your putting game in a lucid, concise and digestible format. Pelz takes a scientific approach to putting a golf ball: he used to be a NASA physicist, and his recommendations leave nothing to vague notions of "focus" or "envisioning", but on the immutable laws of physics, which govern the effect of your swing, the trajectory of your golf ball and even the composition of the ball itself, whether you like it or not.
