Remembering Dave Pelz: The Scientist Who Taught Us to Score

I woke up this morning to the sad news that Dave Pelz has passed away at the age of 85. For those of us who live and breathe golf—not just the Tour drama or gearhead lusting over the newest driver, but the nitty gritty of how the game is played—Pelz was one of the giants. He didn’t just think outside the box. He threw the box away and built a new one using laser calibration, high-speed cameras, and data long before “data-driven” was cool.
Pelz wasn’t your average short game guru. He was a NASA guy—literally. A rocket scientist who left the space program to study why golfers miss shots. Most of us blame our putter, a bad lie, or Mercury in retrograde. Pelz blamed the numbers. And then he backed it up with research that changed the way pros and amateurs think about the game, especially inside 100 yards.
His discovery that nearly 80% of shots lost to par happen in the short game wasn’t just a cute stat. It was the cornerstone of an entire career. One that helped players like Phil Mickelson and Tom Kite sharpen their wedge play and win majors. One that gave us books like The Short Game Bible and Putting Bible—staples in my golf bookshelf, dog-eared and annotated. And one that gave birth to a slew of training aids and coaching methods that are still in use on practice greens across the world.
Let’s be honest: the man was a tinkerer’s hero. His backyard golf lab in Texas had replicas of Augusta’s 12th and the island green at Sawgrass. Who does that? Dave Pelz does. While most of us dream about breaking 80, Pelz dreamt of how to make putting a science. He wanted to quantify feel. And he got closer than anyone ever has.
I think what I appreciated most about Pelz was that he didn’t just serve the Tour elite. His Scoring Game Schools were open to the rest of us—the weekend warriors, the mid-cappers who three-putt too much, the obsessed hobbyists who want to stop chunking half-wedges. He never lost sight of the fact that golf is a maddening game for all of us, not just the ones cashing checks on Sunday.
He also never stopped learning. Never stopped building, measuring, and refining. Even in the final weeks of his life, Pelz was still working in his lab, still trying to make sense of a game that resists sense at every turn.
Dave Pelz didn’t just teach us how to score. He taught us why we score, and how to do it better. That kind of legacy doesn’t fade away. It rolls on, putt by putt, wedge by wedge, in every golfer who ever asked, “Why did that shot go there?” and actually cared enough to find out.
Fairways and greens, Dave. And a one-putt on 18.
Achilles Strikes Again: Tiger Undergoes Successful Surgery

Will Tiger Break Jack’s record? I might break your jaw if you ask that question one more time…
Woods shared via social media today that he experienced “sharp pain” while ramping up his training regimen at home. Dr. Charlton Stucken at the Hospital for Special Surgery in West Palm Beach performed a “minimally-invasive” repair procedure, which reportedly “went smoothly.”
This latest setback adds another chapter to Tiger’s lengthy medical history, which already includes multiple back surgeries, knee procedures, and his recovery from the devastating 2021 car accident that nearly ended his career.
The timing couldn’t be worse with The Masters just weeks away. Golf fans hoping to see Tiger make another appearance at Augusta will likely have to wait until 2026, as Achilles injuries typically require 6-12 months for full recovery.
Woods is now back home focusing on recovery and rehabilitation. While no timeline has been announced for his return to competition, one thing remains certain—counting out Tiger Woods has always been a fool’s errand.
We wish the Big Cat a speedy recovery and will update when more details become available.
What’s your take? Can Tiger overcome yet another injury setback? Share your thoughts in the comments below!
Review: REKS Sling Blade Golf Trivex Prescription Sunglasses

I’ve been putting the REKS Sling Blade Golf Trivex prescription sunglasses through the HOG Test Chamber (my actual life) for several months now, from the links to the slopes. Time to share my $.02, or perhaps $199’s worth…
First Look
The Sling Blade arrives in a sturdy protective case that actually zips (below) – a nice touch compared to those cheap snap cases that pop open in your golf bag. The frame design has a sporty but not overly aggressive look. You won’t feel like you’re wearing a Star Trek prop out there.
On The Course
Let’s get real – as a prescription wearer, finding proper golf eyewear can be tougher than a downhill putt at Augusta National Golf Club, home of The Masters Tournament. The Trivex lenses are where these babies shine (pun intended). The “Color-Boosting” technology isn’t just marketing speak. When I first put the Sling Blades on, the first word out of my mouth was, “wow!” The colors, contrasts, depth, definition are all super. Reading greens becomes noticeably easier, like someone turned up the contrast knob on your vision. During late afternoon rounds, that subtle break that was hiding in the shadows suddenly pops.
The anti-reflective coating is standard (thank you REKS for not making this an up-charge). This means less glare when you’re eyeing up that water hazard, though it won’t help your slice stay dry.
Durability
“Unbreakable” is a bold claim, but these frames take a beating. I may have accidentally sat on them. Twice, and counting. They survived both encounters with my posterior with zero damage. Try that with your $400 designer frames.
Beyond Golf
I’ve taken these bad boys mountain biking and skiing. The lightweight frame means they stay put during active movements, and the optical clarity at high speeds is confidence-inspiring. Whether you’re bombing down a black diamond or reading a 30-foot birdie putt, vision is crisp and clear.
The Good
+ Superior optical clarity and contrast
+ Actually unbreakable (trust me, I tested)
+ Comfortable for 18+ holes, 15 miles on MTB, all day skiing on bluebird days
+ Versatile beyond golf
+ Made in USA
The “But…”
This is super minor, but I do have a critique/suggestion. After finishing up a round with these shades, I put them on my golf hat. Golfers often put their shades on their hat. Some even put the lenses to the back of the hat. Then while loading my bag in my car I bent over a bit and the shades fell off my hat, straight to the ground. As a result, I now have a chip in one of the lenses. I’m SO disappointed about that. Dang it. My other shades, like my Oakleys, have rubberizing on the ends of the temples (the arms of the glasses). The rubberizing helps the shades grip more, though over time I’ve had many of these rubberized sections wear out or completely fall off.
Final Verdict
The verdict is in. The REKS Sling Blad Trivegs sunglasses are GUILTY! Guilty of being awesome.
For the prescription-wearing golfer (and general outdoor enthusiast), the REKS Sling Blade Trivex is a solid performer that won’t break the bank or itself. The optical clarity and contrast enhancement genuinely help your game, whatever your game may be. The durability means these will last longer than your current driver, plus they cost a hell of a lot less!
If you wear prescription lenses and play golf, these should be on your short list. Your eyes and your handicap will thank you. Being able to see where your shots finish is quite rewarding, especially on the score card.
Now excuse me while I head to the range to work on that slice. At least I’ll see it clearly as it heads into the trees. Ok, I’ll be honest. I rarely slice. 🙂
