Product Details
Yes, Pelz is great, but Runyan's book is unmatched. He has an engineering approach that will appeal to analytical types. This guy averaged less than 2 when chipping so he holed it more often than he two putted. An he can explain the principles of what he is doing so you can take his approach without taking his grip for example.
Product Reviews
 (5 stars) - Putting Help
I found the putting style to be highly effective as it helps keep my stroke on line significantly reducing the pushing and pulling of putts. I have been much more proficient at making the four footers and under and have even been able to make one or two longer putts per round which feels good. Getting down closer to the ball helps me see the line better and with the putting stroke I have become more accurate on all putts. The only thing is long periods of practice can be a little tough on the back.
(5 stars) - Short Way to Lower Scoring
My husband was thrilled to receive this out of print golf instruction book by the famous Paul Runyon, whose short game was incomparable. He had looked for the book everywhere and was thrilled to find it at a reasonable price. The book was in perfect condition, as promised, and arrived in a timely fashion. This golfer couldn't be more satisfied!
(5 stars) - Older text well worth reading
I bought this book out of curiosity, as Runyan's golf era was long before mine, but wound up using more of it than I anticipated. It is an excellent book on short game strategy and the basics of producing various trajectories from different lies. I found it more concise and an easier read than the Dave Pelz "Short Game Bible", probably the closest modern equivalent. I've modified my chipping and putting strokes to match each other, as Runyan advocates, and have been getting excellent results.
(5 stars) - Greatest book from the greatest short-game teacher ever
This book is the best of the best on short game. I've read every short-game book and viewed every short-game video since -- and none is better than what Paul Runyan explains in this seminal book. I have owned this book for 25 years, and go back to it as my bible whenever any part of my short game is even slightly off. Mr. Runyan can fix anything by providing the right idea and visualizaiton of the easiest way to execute any short game shot.
I had the good fortune to grow up as a teenager in La Jolla, CA in the late '60's when Gene Littler, Billy Casper, Mickey Wright, Craig Stadler, Phil Rogers, and John Schroder were all "regulars" at La Jolla Country Club, where Mr. Runyan was head pro. They were there because of Mr. Runyan. He attracted and helped develop the great players of the time because he could help them improve their short games better than anyone else. Unlike later short game teachers, Mr. Runyan proved that what he taught works under pressure -- by beating Sam Snead 8 and 7 for the PGA title in 1938 (even though Snead was outdriving him by 100 yards on many holes) -- and by logging 28 additional PGA tour wins based on his short game. Mr Runyan was a role model not only in golf's short game, but in every aspect of life.
