Phil Mickelson, winner of 34 PGA Tour events, teams with Emmy Award-winning producer-director Terry Jastrow for Secrets of the Short Game, a two-disc DVD focusing on all shots played from 50 yards. "The goal here," says Mickelson, "is to help golfers build a foundation so that their practice time directly correlates to improved scoring on the golf course." The DVD set includes sections on putting, chipping, sand shots, and the flop shot Mickelson popularized soon after he joined the PGA Tour in 1992.

(5 stars) - Hinge and Hold Forever - 7/29/2009 - Richard coffey
It's been a great help in a very important area of the game. Nothing worse than hitting two great shots to or on a green and ending up with bogey or worse. It was so good, I bought it and had it sent for my also lefty Bro in law.

(5 stars) - Improve your game - 7/24/2009 - william. j. Durant
have been looking for a good instructional tape thast shows you how to make your golf game better. This one exceeds my expectations. Phil teaches you as if you were there with him. He demonstrates every technigue that has made him a better golfer. I have used the drills and reduced my score by 5 to 8 shots per round.

(5 stars) - Nice to see it from the other side - 7/20/2009 - E. Albrecht
As a lefthanded golf player, you always have to translate any instruction you read or see from the predominant righthanded orientation to my lefthanded orientation. Finally there is a video where the instructor is standing on the right (i.e. left) side of the ball. What a relief! And Phil never speaks of left and right, but of upper or lower, front or back, forward or backward, so that it is understandable for righties as well. (A way of tutoring which righthanded instructors should adopt as well: it's not that difficult!) Anyhow, although my short game already wasn't that bad (after all, I'm a lefty), Phil shows some techniques that ar easy to comprehend and to copy. I already tried them during my rounds and I it helps! It just makes the difference between an easy putt or a an awkward putt. I think it is especially useful for peaople who tend to use their wrists to much. And the fact that Phil uses the same technique over and over again makes chipping a lot easier.

(5 stars) - Pricey, but well worth it. - 7/14/2009 - brad bartholomew
I balked at buying Phil's DVD in the PGA store for $50, but bought it here for less. Worth every penny - Phil's (and Dave Pelz) approach is remarkably simple. And Phil does an excellent job of explaining what he's doing & how he does it (and also what he is not trying to do). His verbiage is clear & concise & easily understandable. OBW, so far, his "hinge & hold" approach seems reliable on the course too. I think any skill level could benefit from this DVD. This DVD is a good value vis-a-vis a lesson with pro - I can re-watch it later.

(5 stars) - Excellent job, Phil! - 7/10/2009 - Wendy.S. Alfieri
Phil has taken a number of different kinds of putts, chips, pitches, and bunker shots, and found a to simplify them by unifying the underlying technique used to create them, what he calls the "hinge-and-hold". The DVD is well-organized, concise, and quite fun to watch. Phil and the producers hit a home run on this one.

(4 stars) - Short Game DVD - 7/1/2009 - Gp Best
I really enjoyed this DVD. The production is excellent and there are some great tips. For the length of the DVD there really wasn't a lot of different things covered. Phil concentrates on just a few topics but explores them thoroughly. If you don't like Phil's corny media persona you will find yourself wanting to throw things at the screen. If you can get past it you will find some great tips and techniques you can use forever.

(4 stars) - Sometimes you have to go backwards to go forwards. - 8/3/2009 - Peter. E. Schmidt
My short game initially suffered as I tried to implement Phil's putting and chipping principles.I am pleased to advise that I have turned the corner. Now that I have better FEEL in both my chipping and putting strokes, my confidence is increasing and as such the chips are getting closer and more putts are dropping.
