1 step at a time! December 30, 2008 If you do get this book take it very very slowly when putting it into practise. Although he is a successful coach his ideas on paper are actually quite confusing almost to the extent where if you read the whole chapter on chpping then went to hit a standard chip shot at your course you'd struggle to take the club back! With a 1 step at a time approach this book will benefit your game although it is a bit too self-congratulating for my liking; he isn't afraid to put across his belief that he is god's gift to the short game :-S....Much preferred Pelz' short game bible :-)
The Art of Piffle November 6, 2008 Please avoid this product. The techniques are highly idiosyncratic and extremely unhelpful. One can easily see why two of the 'great' professionals who 'endorse' the book have now left this guy for more sensible golf short-game coaches...
Better than lessons from a Pro September 5, 2008 This is the best Golf instruction book i have read. I am an average club player ( 11 handicap )but have always found the short game a struggle.
If you lack confidence in chipping or Bunker play this book is a must buy.
If you still can`t play out of bunkers after reading this book i suggest you give up golf . From being fearful of every bunker shot as i would either thin it 50 yards over the green or leave it in the bunker i would now rather be in the bunker than the rough.
This book is nicely written without being too technical even though you might need to re-read a couple of chapters before it sinks in i can assure you that his concepts are easy to understand and priceless.
A must have book for the club golfer.
Great golf short game coaching manual October 21, 2007 17 out of 17 found this review helpful
One of the very best golf instructions books.Utley's methods are tried and tested on tour - he coaches a number of top players solely on their short game.If you have ever wondered what coaches are telling tour players who feel the need to improve then its all here. There could be a few more pictures and mainly text, but Utley puts it all across very well.Approach taken is not heavy and scientific like Pelz and is a lot easier to implement.If you are serious about improving your golf, then forget the latest drivers and balls and shafts and trying to blast it 20 yards further - from 100 yards and in is where it really counts. I have already improved my touch around he greens and Im controlling the ball better - and understanding why - after a few weeks.
