Arnold Palmer has one. Jack Nicklaus has one. And now, Phil Mickelson has one. No, we're not talking about the Masters championships (although Mickelson has three of those), but a golf instruction video. Emmy-winner Terry Jastrow, who produced Palmer's and Nicklaus' own bestselling videos, brings his keen eye to this master class that concentrates on what Mickelson calls "the most important part of the game" (half of all shots played take place inside 50 yards, he states). Over the course of this nearly two-hour program, Mickelson demonstrates putting, chipping using his advocated "hinge and hold" method, bunker play, and his signature "flop shot." In an entertaining segment, he also demonstrates two specialty shots, a "Two Balls in Bunker" shot (don't try this at home) and the "Backward Over-the-Head" shot. The demonstrations are repeated in slow-motion and seen from a variety of angles. This program is for the serious golfer, but beginners need not feel too intimidated. Mickelson is a natural in front of the camera and is able to impart a lot of information in a relaxed style that makes even the most advanced concepts accessible. As one golf commentator exults during one of the dramatic highlights clips included as a bonus feature, this is as good as it gets. --Donald Liebenson

 Inside the 3 Foot Circle February 19, 2010
M. A. Lenarcic (Bristol, RI)
Well produced instructional. Phil offers some excellent training drills.
Footage of his amazing touch around the greens inspires you to get out there
and practice, practice, practice.
Brilliant short game exponent for both left and right handed golfers. February 16, 2010
A. Bailey (Australia)
If you are a keen golfer and want to improve your short game, you will get enormous help from the Phil Mickelson short game CDs. He explains his ideas clearly and his physical demonstrations are enormously helpful. Good, whether you are a leftie or rightie. Even my pro wants to borrow it!
Phil Mickelson - Secrets to the Shortgame February 12, 2010
Jay C. Ogden (Chicago, Illinois)
Great DVD! Phil has a lot of nuggets of information in a practical and simple approach to the short game. I thought the whole DVD was great and very insightful.
One of the best instructional videos. Period December 31, 2009
Shriman (Delhi, India)
This is a very professional production. Phil breaks down the short game in a lucid way, which is easy to remember during practice sessions. It covers putting, chipping, lob shots, bunker shots, and flop shots.
One information I find missing from most instructional videos and books, unfortunately, is missing in this one as well. No discussion on wet bunkers at all.
At any rate, thanks to Phil and his production team for this fantastic product.
Let Phil help! December 29, 2009
R. Doll (Modesto, CA)
This is one of the most articulate videos on this subject. It gives one tactics that if applied and practiced consistently can only but improve one's short game. The book of the same title is a good companion.
