Put the "finesse" in your finesse swing and learn how to use it to improve your distance. The diagrams and practice drills will show you how to perfect your golf swing.
 Getting Serious About Lowering My Handicap February 11, 2007

When I started to play golf again, after a lay-off of many years, I picked up "Putt Like the Pros", so when I ordered this book, I knew Dave Pelz's style.
His no nonesense, clear - albeit a bit technical at times, description of how to use the finesse swing to improve your distance wedge, pitch, chip and sand shots, makes sense to my engineering trained mind. Most of the illustrations, except 16 pages in the centre, are in B&W, and are not of the quality we are used to in the big name golf magazines. On the other hand, the diagrams and sketches are first rate.
All in all, I have found the Short Game Bible easy to read and very informative. I look forward to getting out in the backyard or on the practice range, when the weather gets better, to practice the many drills Dave Pelz provides in this excellent book on a much neglected aspect of this great game.

Book is great, but it's January and I won't be able to try out what I've learned. I'm taking this time to master the finesse swing indoors w/ the drills and photos. So far it seems easy enough to learn, even for someone w/ ingrained swing habits.

How can this book possibly be rated as highly as it is? I just don't get it. The important information could have been presented in about 5 pages instead of the 425 that it took. I found myself TRYING to stay awake and pay attention, but was soon quickly flipping through the book to find anything of real substance. The review below this one has the real point that dave is trying to make... use 4 wedges and learn how far you can hit each one using 3 different backswing lengths. There you have it.

Although perhaps overly wordy at times, this book contains genuine gold nuggets of advice on the short game. For a longtime player with a high handicap, David's Pelz's book provides text, photos and drawings that provide the best analysis of how to improve the short game that I've yet seen. Between "nuggets" a bit long, but keep at it, you will be glad you perservered.
