The pause at the end is hilarious 🤣
😂
LOL, loved the comment: ".... coming off an event where I led in driving distance, and had the weekend off" ! Always good to have a sense of humor when things don't go your way, Phil !
I love some Phil-osophy... What can be said that hasn't been said already. Phil is the best.
Phil is just so good for golf and hopefully, will be for years to come. Such a dude....so unassuming and modest but what a fab sense of humour!
I often chip off the toe and have been doing it for decades. It’s especially helpful when chipping on to very fast putting surfaces because the ball comes off kind of dead and rolls out pretty consistently. And because it comes off the face a bit dead, you can swing a little harder which really helps with getting the club through longer sticky grass. It’s an easy shot to master with just a little bit of practice. I also putt off the toe (or heel) on fast downhill putts. In fact not only does this allow you to make a harder strike, it helps offset some break in the putt too. My club pro taught me these things back in the early ‘80s when Mick was in elementary school. Look at me know, sitting here blithering on YT while Phil flys around in private jets. Just goes to prove that in golf, talent trumps knowledge.
Good tip, thanks. Good luck with your next tournament. I expect you to win!
OMG I do this! I’ve actually shown other people this trick. It’s also a great way to keep the ball below the hole when short sided or below the hole.
On both swings I was thinking the ball was going to come hot off the contact and instead it was perfectly placed. Truly the master.
The Toe-Down technique came from Ray Floyd. When Ray came on tour he quickly learned he had a poor short game relative to other pros. He worked on short-game & found this technique - it gave him incredible confidence as he felt he could never miss & would always hit it cleanly - Greg Norman later adopted Ray's technique if the ball was sitting down. Ray would chip the ball even if it was 1-inch off the green he was that confident. When the ball is sitting down, absolutely use this technique
Hahaha the end is awesome!
Thanks Phil !!! Very cool !!
Phil the Thrill 💪🏻
Paul Runyan also taught the iron/putter toe shot, works great in close.
Phil's second shot reaction: damn I'm good
"... and I had a great weekend off" ... hahaha, cool dude
Phil is so awesome.
"And I had a great weekend off so that was cool" Paha
I know most of us would just putt these....but when you're a freak around the greens, you're often trying to make them. When you're name is Phil Mickelson, that's your standard. And with 'holing it' in mind, chipping these is the way to go because you eliminate the fringe.
You are the best!
At what? Being a goofy choker?
Great Video ; what club are you using ??
That's a great little tip. Now if I could just find a muni golf course with tight lies around the green.
Oh Master!
HITTING BOMBS!!!
That first scenario, I'm just sittin here just like bruh you're 10 feet from the cup, just putt. Lol
Who's here after Phil made the young guys look like chumps in the PGA!? Legend! 👌💪
The goat
this guy should go Pro.. good tips..
From there, with that lie, I'd just putt it.
Phil said in 04 he started putting these. According to him that is how he won the Masters.
Yeah definately…I’m 76 now I putt from off the green a lot…much more control
I use this method routinely, especially when there is thick rough. This method cuts right through the grass. Remember to adjust the alignment.
For this reason of encountering "tight lies" alone, I strongly suggest carrying at least one wedge in your bag that is configured with lower or minimal bounce.
For me, it's my 56* degree sand wedge.
Wish you would show a slow motion of exactly what you’re talking about, showing the club striking the ground/ball in the orientation you describe
That's a great tip by Mickelson. I learned that from Raymond Floyd though, sorry Phil.
So did Phil lol
If I did that so close to the ocean, George would’ve pulled a titleist out of a whales blowhole.
If Phil has to work on his short game I might as well give up!
The pros, especially, have to work on all aspects of their game. It's why they're the pros.
I would argue this guy’s short game is top 5 all time in golf history. Seve is obviously in that group and maybe not as flashy as Phil & Seve but Tiger easily belongs in that group. The next 2 to round out the top 5? I’m open to suggestions.
Jordan Spieth 👊🏼
May I suggest putter ???
What club did he use?
Phil I just want to know how to shoot 2 under
Calusa pines
1. Would have putted the first shot anyway.
2. Hitting bombs can only take you so far; Ask Bryson.
3. Would have putted the second shot too.
Well, there it is, proof Phil has a doppelganger running around disseminating his golf tips, almost verbatim!
He did it left handed too....
"Led the field in driving distance...awesome" slight dig at Bryson there?
No he is pumped that he is 50 something and led the pga in driving distance. Are you always so negative? Or does bryson just live in your head?
@@Benderthegr865 You literally went on a rant for absolutely no reason
@@raccoondan8080 thats a rant? He called out bryson for no reason
This was last year before Bryson got huge and started hitting it far. This was around the time when Phil started focusing on distance and leading the field in total distance proved his work had payed off. But he obviously was joking about the distance and its importance when he mentioned the weekend off, implying driving distance isn't the only thing that matters.
no,it was a dig on the whole field
Probably got lucky with that one
Bit awkward at the end lol
Why would you not putt it from there?
Putt it...problem solved
hope you repaired where you unnecessarily smacked the club into the fringe Mr Mickleson
It is nature. It will repair itself. Stop being a SJW
I would just putt from there.
Phil says "get that shaft as vertical as you can " and then pronates it about 8 inches forward to hit the shot.....
He means vertical in the sense of creating an almost 90 degree angle betwen the shaft and the clubhead - like a putting stroke. He doesn't mean that the grip should be directly above the ball - he means the grip should be directly above the target line, not inside of it.
you mean 8 inches forward shaft lean (to left from front-on view). Phil is talking about the shaft being parallel to this body, i.e. you push the handle away from your body until it is straight over the club head (down-the-line view)
As the other two replies stated, "Vertical" relates the lie of the Shaft, not forward lean.
What You need to do is acquire the correct definition of "pronates"!
@@apaulmcdonough2170 I am a single digit golfer, I know what pronate means
@@JohnDoe-xu2vx , you may *think* you know what *"pronate"* means.
Except there is no Pronation or Supination in the swing Phil used here. Phil *extended* his Left Wrist and *flexed* his Right Wrist to get Forward Shaft Lean.
But hey, Conviction will always overrule Correctness ...
These videos are great, except that whoever is filming them needs to upgrade from a flip phone to a new iphone 12, or buy a real camera lol! I mean, 480p or even 720p resolution in 2020 while filming a hundred millionaire professional golfer like Phil...unbelievable!🤔🤔🤔
Hey Phil do you know where your wallet is?
You left it
Awkward ending
agree, awkward af
Why was that awkward it was quite comical actually. He almost holed it and it stops to a tap in range. Then he looks at the camera as if to say Oh yeah!
Looked like he meant for it to be awkward lol
Like nobody knew who should speak for a long second, then it just cuts off haha
definitely unintentionally awkward, phil was done talking, but camera man thought he might keep going...
I have no idea what he's talking about. Less physics Phil
Does he understand what deg loft creates the max spin? Does he understand the golden dynamic loft degree that also creates the max spin? This truly helps the ball stopping action. When you watch the balls they skip right over the green.
My last question is club head speed = how much distance?
This will truly help him in a major ways.
only on youtube would you find some clown trying to give short game advice to Phil fucking Mickelson.
I can assure you, he doesn't need your help.
@@FireC4p3z Right? Absolutely ridiculous.
And tomorrow, Ryan will be showing Tiger how to fade a ball properly.
Seriously, m8, you would be wise to amend (delete) that insane comment.
You can probably help Dechambeau get some distance off the tee also.
Weekend golfers dont do this
Youre not phil
Grab a 7 iron and put it from there!
