Phil Mickelson putting grip was developed in association with Dave Stockton, known as one of the games greatest putter. The following is a picture demonstration of Phil Mickelson Putting Grip.

His old putting method overlapped the index finger of his lead hand over the knuckles of his trail hand as many golfers do.
