I've always been a great fan of Phil and his golf game, especially his play from 50 yards and in. His skills and creativity are simply unmatched. I know you will find this book helpful, both at sharpening your technique and improving your imagination--Ben Crenshaw
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.

Format:Hardcover
Watching Phil Mickelson play a range of stunning pitches, chips and putts, it seems like wizardry of the most devious sort; it is easy to forget the hours of practice it took to get to that standard, not to mention a large portion of personal talent.
The book is an excellent companion to the DVD; it is well-illustrated with lots of full-colour photographs accompanied by very well thought-out text and sections explaining every aspect of each shot and practice drill.
Don't expect the wizardry right away but, with a bit of practice following his ideas, it's likely that improvement will happen. His method is not for everyone but it makes complete sense, obviously works and Mickleson is the best example there is.

It is a very good complement to the Short Game DVD, and having both allows to recap the video on a book.
Waiting now for the iPad version ;-)

An excellent short game instruction book. Once you get past the Left handed instruction ther are many great tips, but these are not for the faint hearted. You must expect to practise hard before you master the best short game in the world.

What Secrets of the Short Game?
I thought this might be revelational, but it was nothing of the sort. Mickelson is so incredibly talented, he uses an unconventional style which he alone seems to be able to get... Read more
