Dave Pelz's Golf without Fear: How to Play the 10 Most Feared Shots in Golf with Confidence Hardcover – November 11, 2010

I am 34 years old and very new to golf. Have been training up to 4 months now (Feb 12~Jun 12) at driving range (hit 500 shots a week). At the range, I can hit 9 out of 10 balls fairly good using #5 to SW. Problem happens when I play at the course. Had been played 5 times but ended up mis-hitting the ball using irons. Very frustrated. Using this book, I'd come to know that the main problem for my miserable irons shot was unable to identify the lie of my golf ball and how to adjust my stance or ball position. It is one the most golfer fear i.e. tight lie shot. I am a happy man now as I am no longer suffer for tight lie and been getting double bogey, bogey and sometimes par!. A book that evey golfer must have in collection! Kudos to Dave Pelz.

This guy really knows what he is talking aboutI thought I need help with at least 4 of these 10 shots and sure enough the tuition is spot onI am now going through the remaining six shots to see if I can learn from them as well and guess what!!! Yes I canAnother great book from the master of the short gameI play off 8 but I guess this will help players of all handicapsThank you Dave

This is a good pairing with the Dave Stockton "Unconscious ..." books. I also have Pelz's "Bible" and much of this book is in there. The primary reason I couldn't give this book 5 stars was that the photos frequently are different from the text. For example, Dave may say "Stand a little open" but the photo shows his standing square. A big problem? I guess not, but it sure makes following his instructions a little harder for us graphic-oriented people.

If you struggle with your game because of the really tough shots, this is a great book. Highly organized, factual, with great pics and drills. Best golf instruction I have ever had because it all works. I have dropped 5 strokes off my handicap and I am only halfway through the book.

helping me at golf!!

While some of the shots are fearful I hardly think I need to spend much time practicing hitting left handed shots from up against buildings. That might save me one shot every 5 years. The best parts of the book were already covered in Pelz's short game book.

This book is the most valuable collection of information on shots that all golfers have to play but are not documented anywhere else.Pelz has no peer in his logical and empirical approach.

the latest book from david pelez is just fantastic and if you get a chance to go to one of his day clinic that in conjunction with the book will improve your golf i did here in ireland at kileen castle
