Dave Pelz's Damage Control by Dave Pelz

A paradigm-smashing instruction book on recovering from trouble and avoiding ?disaster shots the three or four errant shots in each round that lead to blow up holes and ruin golfers? scores

Over his three decades of working with pro and amateur golfers, Dave Pelz noticed some definite differences between the two, particularly in how pros and amateurs handle trouble shots. Seeking quantitative evidence for his hunch, he used his analytical tools to look at thousands of scorecards from a wide range of amateur players. The data showed that the majority of golfers play at or below their handicap most of the time but are done in by a few ?disaster holes double bogeys or worse?each round that ruin their score.

In Damage Control, Dave Pelz teaches all the techniques necessary to recover from trouble and avoid disasters. He explains the golf fact that you will hit errant shots?into deep rough, into sand, into shallow water, or near obstacles that inhibit your swing. The key is being able to recover from these shots and not make a bad situation worse by hitting the ball into deeper trouble.

The book is filled with full-color photos and drills on how to make all the shots you might encounter on a golf course using five skills specifically designed to minimize the chances of making your life worse. Revealing methods for shot-making never before seen in an instructional book, Damage Control is a groundbreaking new look at the game from a master instructor.

David Pelz is the world's leading putting and short game instructor and the author of two popular golf teaching classics, Dave Pelz's Short Game Bible and Dave Pelz's Putting Bible. He has spent the last three decades studying golf and fine-tuning his teaching methods as a former NASA research scientist. He is the originator of the Pelz Golf Institute and the World Putting Championships, as well as a senior instructor on the Golf Channel's Scoring Game Show and a technical advisor to Golf Magazine. He resides on the outskirts of Austin, Texas.
