 The Art of the Short Game September 18, 2008
Within a couple of weeks, with meaningful practice, the methods taught in the book significantly improved my chipping and pitching. Bunker game has improved too although implementation is harder.
Strongly recommended.
A 'must-buy' August 28, 2008
This is the best chipping, pitching, and sand play manual that I have ever read, and I've bought a number of books over the years. I'm a 10 handicapper that's played for 35 years and my short game was never great and recently gotten horrible. This book gives you great visualization techniques that are very simple and easy to conceptualize. I didn't even have a chance to practice, but only memorized the hand position tips, shoulder position, pivot, and weighting, and went out to play a few days later. I had 10 excellent chips and pitches (each to within 5 feet and several were tap-ins) along with a sandie. I would normally have 9 crappy chips including two skulls and 4 chunkers. That improvement is not coincidence, but a demonstration that what he tells you can translate to immediate results. Utley says that you'll suddenly say 'eureka' when you make solid contact is exactly what happens. This is definitely a great teaching book - short and sweet with pictures - that even guys who think they know it all (or thought they did, like me) need to get. It's very easy to see why this guy teaches the pros. A must-buy.
 Short Game Book: Stan Utley July 14, 2008
The techniques described really work after a little practice. My only difficulty was relating the pictures to the text. The text does not reference the pictures so you have to read the text, look at the pictures, read again and then determine what the pictures apply to. However, the methods really work and have already helped me drop a few strokes per round in 3 weeks.
Great book! April 17, 2008

After reading this book, I am confident that my short game will improve. However, time will tell with practice and repetition, I should see a significant improvement.
Utley's approach really works April 17, 2008

This is a different approach to the short game which seems to really work. I've tried it for just two weeks and the improvement is already evident.
