Dave Pelz - Short Game bible...
what a great book...you may or may not agree with him all the way through or on his views of the game but pelzs stat collection and support of his theory is brilliant..the stories are fantastic and it seems he tells the stories to subliminally make you beleive you can have this outstanding short game (clever man)....tells the story of a guy who doesnt swing great against one who does as an example..the "ugly" player wiins....its not how..its how many..i thikn golf can be quite daunting..certainly to newer players..and also players who have hit a wall with lowering their scores..id reccomend this book to find beleif and some real and relevant basic support...different things work for different people but for me its a really gfood read and ill certainly use some of his teachings to track my improvements...

I used to enjoy watching him when I could get the golf channel.
He did explain things well and I've often thought about getting one of his books.
