Summary: If you like this approach, there's no better book
Review: I give this 5 stars because it's an excellent book, which is not to say *you* will love it - it just might not be your style. There aren't a lot of anecdotes, and surely no fluff. That last reviwer sure got it wrong - first he says it's very techical, then it's an infomercial? Which is it? 2 stars because Pelz mentions how to use a couple of his products? I found that helpful. If you don't want them, skip those few paragraphs.But on to the meat. This is just packed with hard facts based on real research. Anyone who doesn't like this book will probably be the type of person who just wants a band-aid. There is no quick fix here - you will be told what it takes to seriously improve your putting. And that kind of improvement does not come for free. But Pelz boils it down to the core. This is *the* putting bible, as far as I'm concerned.

Summary: What a difference a book makes...
Review: I read this book on a plane from NY to San Francisco, on my way to a golf outing at Pebble Beach. As a fairly new golfer (less than 2 years), I needed to work on my putting skills (or lack thereof..). I often 3 putted, or worse. Well, I must say, that after reading this book, I now understand what was REALLY happening as I was putting and I now know what to do about it. This book has done wonders for me and my golf scores...

Summary: Too much scientific approach
Review: I was quite dissapointing by this book as it contains lot of pages but only a few important messages. If Mr Pelz would put these on one A4 sheet, it would be more appropriate. If you look for organised and clear putting teaching book, do not buy this book!

Summary: disappointing
Review: I've watched Dave Pelz on the golf channel and took some of his chipping tips to the practice green where they really helped. I expected as much from this book. Unfortunately most of the practice methods in this book require using Pelz' special practice equipment and therefore aren't very helpful unless you have these items. There is some interesting info on the lack of consistency in how a golf ball rolls, but other than that I didn't get much out of this book. I certainly didn't need to read this to know that taking several hundred practice putts a week will make you a better putter, and that is the bottom line.
