Product Description

From 50 yards and in, no golfer in history has demonstrated more talent, flair, creativity and precision, or generated more raw excitement, than Phil Mickelson. His ability with the sand wedge and putter are legendary not only among fans but his peers as well, and it is his skill with those clubs that is primarily responsible for his winning 34 tournaments on the PGA Tour, including three major championships. In his first-ever instruction book, Mickelson explains in detail how to master every phase of the short game.

Mickelson maintains that any golfer of average ability can become a deadly short-game player by approaching the subject with a blend of science (proper mechanics and setup) and art (imagination and feel). Mickelson does a fine job explaining both; combining the wisdom of his great teachers with his own fertile imagination, cultivated from 34 years of experimentation, trial and error.

No golfer can afford to miss out on Mickelson′s secrets and tips.

My Dad watched this 5 times between Christmas and New Years. He loves it. He is a lefty golfer like Phil and he said it was nice to see how he did things.

I received the DVD's for Christmas and they are great. It really breaks down the short-game and explains it so anyone can understand. I really believe this is a great instructional tool and I am sure that it will help.

Phils's the best at the short game. Here he gives you some good instruction as to how he hits certain shots and why he does it that way. Reading this along with watching the DVD has helped my short game. Wish I had this book earlier in the season.

well illustrated with good descriptions, but it is always difficult to translate pictures into 'feel".

Overall excellent, should help everyone's short game. Maybe put together a little too quickly. There is a typographical error in the caption for the picture on page 65. They have used the same picture on pages 85 and 87 and the latter picture does not fit its caption.
