has anyone read:-

the mind factor - Darren Clarke

and both the David Pelz short game and putting books?

Are they worth a read?

The Dave Pelz books are good...but about 300 pages too long.

Haven't read the Darren Clarke book....and I'm not sure I'd want to. I've seen his mind collapse a few times during tournaments.

It will definitely benefit you. But it is wayy too long- IMO. I haven't read the putting book but I have read about 75% of the short game book and it's just so boring that I don't know if I'll finish.

Nick Price's The Swing is a very good book. I finished that one in a few sittings.

I'm reading the Putting book right now and it reads pretty quickly. Its very interesting to read his scientific method approach to putting. I'm only halfway though it and I one putted 8 greens last Saturday.
