Pelz is a wizard with the wedges, can watch him all day!
I read his book many years ago , 100 yards in , i believe it was called , allot of very good information . thank you
Thank you for sharing - what a privilege to have access to this level of insight. Some great take-aways here. Off to the practice green now to work on my chipping! Cheers from Sydney, Aust - Dave
It's summer in Sydney currently, how you been wedging it?!
@@30secondgolflessons BIt late to the party but thanks for the question. My wedging has been fantastic thank you - today I hit a (legitimate) 9 under at the Terrey Hills Par 3 - my new record. Currently off 7, I have worked very hard at following Mr Pelz's advice - reading his Short Game Bible many times (and again at present). After almost losing my left hand in a tablesaw accident just before your question (Jan '19), I've only been able to hold a club and had to relearn much of my game since around June last year. However, happily things are working for me. I look forward to looking up your channel! Where in Sydney are you? Regards - David (upper North Shore)
deldridg Crazy about the arm, way to bounce back! Great insight on your game and great scoring! I’ve read Pelz and still incorporate it my teaching and my game. I am currently based in the States. I have a student near Brisbane thru my website where I give online golf lessons. 30secondgolflessons.com. Feel free to email me at jeff@30secondgolflessons.com. Cheers!
Awesome..2 Legends!!! Thank You
Excellent!
Great tips 👍🏽
This s so lovely.
Excellent.
Really good
THE COMMERCIAL CHANNEL
Interrupted by moments of golf.
My problem would also be that I dont have a choice of wedges in my bag. But thank you for the tip. Well worth trying.
I would also have a similar problem: I don’t play golf…😂
Hitting off a mat always makes great wedge shots ! Lie and area of the ball is key ! Would like to see this in a real golf course hit from fairways, rough and etc !
AstroTurf?
Ace those wedges•°°°°°°°°••.
Isn't he collapsing is left wrist?
would like to know more about what you are referring to!
First of all I think the world of Dave Pelz. I think he is brilliant.
My home course looks like a goat farm. The bunkers and greens are awful. I would love to see a tour player try to play in less than perfect conditions and see how they handle it. I know they are all great golfers, I know that, but the courses are set up so perfectly for them that there is very little variation between venues. The weather is the only variable. A professional bowler has the same odds of playing well and they are indoor.
Every time I see a tour event- every lie is damn near perfect, the bunkers are all the same, the greens may be a bit fast or slow that day, but they all play on perfect courses. I wonder what my score would be if I didn't have to dodge washed out bunkers made of pebbles, fire ants, tree roots, mole crickets, pine straw, tree roots, inconsistent greens, pin placements that look like they were chosen by a retarded Beagle with epilepsy, yardage markers that were made by the same Dog, etc. Even when the tour players are in the trees they have a perfect lie. It's like watching someone shoot pool. It has become boring.
I am no tour pro but nobody is going to beat me without a fight. I would like to see the PGA allow the courses to blend in with nature a little more and stop making every lie perfect just for the sake of TV ratings. Arnie, Chi Chi, Jack, Lee, Ben, etc. played on courses like you and I do and they were great. I want to see that again. Everyone would probably just bitch though.
Just my two cents.
It's been proven many times that tour players struggle on non PGA courses for the same reasons you're mentioning. They have the obvious advantage in distance, but greens in particular are way more unpredictable to play compared to the smooth surface greens on the tour.
Just remember that most Professionals, if not all, have proven themselves on average golf courses for years through HS, College and mini tours. A top professional will not often get a horrible lie to chip from near a green because he's not usually far off, and if they do they will punch it or whatever, and they will take a bogey once in a while of course, but at the end of the day they'll score 3-4 under almost every time minimum on ANY PUBLIC COURSE in the world. The can get up and down from where the ball is under water an inch etc....they're awesome at everything.
@@wreckim Good point, I stand corrected.
Paul H I agree with wreckim that tour pros will find a way to succeed anywhere and have to early in life. What I like to see from an instructor when it comes to short game is more focus on clubface to turf interactions for each shot and what the goal is.
I grew up at a goat ranch 9 hole golf course. Would recommend using the bounce more which often means playing the slightly higher shot. Leading edge pointing down when you are playing off terrible turf puts a huge premium on contact.
@@garrettnobles8956 This game that we have chosen is fun as hell isn't it Garrett? I love it! I'm in my mid fifties and still feel like a little kid every time I start a new round. It's the best game ever. Some shots will be great, some shots will be awful, but you keep grinding away. I love golf and I can tell you do as well. People that don't play don't understand us...and that's fine with me. Hit 'em straight and long, and may all your putts fall, my friend.
They're all synthetic greens arent they?
Pelz has obviously practiced a lot even though he flips the hands and releases the right hand over the left too much. Good results though.
👍

My issue is that no golf course iv ever seen is fake grass
chipping off of nice level lies is nice and all...I'd like to see a video where the ball isn't sitting so nicely
his buddy is like blah blah blah. seeinh is believing
Not a lot of green to work with! Yeh right - 40 yards.
haha, yep
Easy off fake grass
I was thinking that too. Better than nothing though.
Very low level and unhelpful comment IMHO. We're not rating Mr Peltz's shots, we're being given access to his vast insights - for free. A little bit of gratitude goes a long way. Cheers from Australia - Dave
@@davee8659 well said. In the US we appreciate great insight also. But there are to many that just want t ol criticize others. If Phil says he's knowledgeable, good enough for me.
Lol nothing's easy with water in front of you, whether it's on grass, fake grass or on the tee.
Easier….not easy. Let's be honest, from perfect lies...not tight, not fluffy, and nice dry ground, the normal golf shot isn't much different. However, if the ground is a bit soft this shot is one scary thing....perhaps even for pros.
w o o o ! ! 🍌
he really isn't very good at chipping/pitching...simply has bad form
So the man in a mansion with a yard dedicated to wedges. One of the most exclusive teaching pros in the world. Renowned for his short game insight, isn't a very good chipper?
*LOL!*
You must be a top touring pro to say something so asinine.
Lee Travino said he never met a coach that could beat him...
@@30secondgolflessons Thats because lee trevino is a once maybe twice in a generation talent.
Lee is awesome!
Ice Visuals agreed 100%. As a Certified PGA Member, I whole heartedly endorse getting a coach! I would never have been a pro if it wasn’t for teaching professionals! I’m not one in a generation player, maybe a coach lol
Ice Visuals Is chipping off match you idiot
Thought this was common golf sense
No. When I hit wedges off mats I never worry about my wedge play. Mats are hugely forgiving and promote poor technique and good results.
All that money spent on this artificial grass facility is possibly the worst investment Dave Pelz could have made in my opinion. Perhaps it's useful for the purposes of looking good hitting off these surfaces in these videos?
Nothing on this facility is remotely like the real thing other than the bunkers and water.
Wouldn't golf be easy if we hit off these surfaces all day long. His "other world of wedge play" is the phoney game played off these surfaces.
