[@TheToledoTrumpton]

@@xmt2rcv882 The Phil Mickelson over-hype is strong in this video. Both of his were basically him hitting over trees. Not saying they were not good shots, but every player does them on a semi-regular basis. Of course Phil doesn't want to tell you all how wonderful he is...

[@victoriamahmood9030]

4:43 that guys jumping in!

[@brettkarling5671]

That shots not hard it's just the fact that it happened, all he had to do was hit it 10-15 yards and it was practically impossible to miss the green.

[@UNITED8993]

frankly its a shot that any of us can do. sorry but its true.

[@brown55061]

I still think Forsman's punch under the trees, while just lucky, was the #1. That's a 1 in about 5 million to make that.

[@LightningJanitorial]

Couldn't agree more dude. Althought I think I could make it in about 4 million myself........ I also found it funny that Pat Summerall called Ben Crenshaw's left handed wedge from under a tree to six feet of the hole in tournament conditions as "pretty good". Man, Summerall must have been tough to shop for during Christmas.......... P.S. Where is Greg Norman's recovery shot on 17 at the 1986 masters? One of the greatest shots of all time, in the final round of the Masters. Gotta be on this list IMO.

[@LightningJanitorial]

***** What are you talking about dude? The shot I'm talking about IS IN THIS VIDEO, and is not a major. What I was saying was that instead of it being number four on this list, it should have been number one. Maybe YOU need to pay attention more lol.

[@leeshane5898]

I know that this is really old, but you didn't mention anything about first or fourth in your previous comment. You just said that it needs to be on the list, which it is. You need to make sure you convey correctly what you want to say.

[@bobkelly1002]

brown55061 i

[@Renville80]

brown55061 I was gonna say that. While many of the other shots at least got the golfers on the green and in decent position, this guy made that putt blind. It probably helped that there was that slope in the right spot else he would have wound up in the bunker and likely gone on to at least end up with a bogey.

[@lazyoldman9355]

Years ago I played in the Public Links amateur's tournament and this young man names Reid hit into the water beside the green. His ball was literally 6 to 8 inches under the water but the water was clear and you could see his ball very well. He took off his shoes and socks, laid that wedge open like a bunker shot, knocked in on the green with the ball funneling down a hill and into the hole. Damnedest shot I have ever seen in my life. Lucky or good but regardless it went in :)

I knew Phil would be on here. He is one of my favorite players and my favorite person to pull off recovery shots. I watched him do some pretty amazing things. He's racked up alot more in 3 years since this video.

[@garrettschupp2277]

It was an excellent shot, but I don't consider Tiger's shot a recovery shot regardless the grass situation he was in.

[@jonlanier_]

Yea, you gotta have a little more than thick rough to make this list.

[@shartingkity3647]

+Jon Lanier what about the impossible pin placement from where he was at? the green was straight into the water from where he was at

[@jonlanier_]

Sharting Kity If that would be the case, then this should be a human highlight real of Phil and Seve.

[@traptrap1968]

For real. How can Tigers shot even be in the top 20. This is not best shots of a year, 5 years or even a decade. This was ALL TIME. Whatever. Any decent golfer could make that shot if given 10,15 tries so that shouldn't be considered top 10 of all time. Give me a break

[@Ezallium]

T App No way a decent golfer could’ve made that shot in 10-15 tries. The camera angle didn’t do the shot justice. He had a huge ridge to hit over while being in ridiculously thick rough with an extremely fast green and having the pin be near the water. He had to make the shot when he was one back in the final round of a tournament.

[@karmaboo9489]
