Hi I’m Rick Shiels, welcome to my channel RickShielsPGAGolf. This RUclips channel is designed to help you play better golf, also to help you enjoy your golf more!
I specialise in golf club reviews, golf club unboxing, golf club news, golf club head to heads, and all about golf clubs.
I also want to make you play better golf by providing coaching video on all topics about golf, how to fix your slice, fix your hook, help you drive the golf ball longer, hit your irons more pure, hit your irons closer to the hole and help you draw and fade your golf shots.
I will also help you lower your score by chipping better by stopping you duff and thin chips, pitch the ball closer and also create backspin. Also I will provide you help to putt better and hole more putts!
On this channel I also make fun and entertaining golf content based on crazy and sometimes “gimmicky” golf clubs. I like to cut through the marketing hype about products and I like to give you the honest truth about golf equipment.
If you enjoy the channel make sure you hit subscribe and also tap the notification bell so that you are always notified when I release a new video.
I prefer a shiny finish. This makes it easier for another group to find my wedge greenside and not return it anyway.
I left my Srixon ZX7 PW I just got in March at a course a month ago and no one turned it in, its like $130 to replace it, super upset about it.

15:37 great review, love the Vokey.
I left mine on 15 on saturday, and didn't notice it was missing until 18. just goes to show how my game is improving.
Would have been good to see the results on the wet test with the Vokey for comparison. Keep up the good work.
I am subscribed! I was shooting 110-115 back, back golfing since May after a 16 year gap. Got my first lesson 4 weeks ago and started shooting 102, second lesson 9 days ago and since shot 98 twice. Also, watching Ricks videos has helped aswel especially in the beginning :)
Keep going mate. In the same place.
Same to you, man! Went out yesterday, shot +18 on front 9, was +6 from 10-6 and then doubled both 17 and 18 to end +28 lol Back 9 was an unreal feeling though. Its great feeling like your improving, isn't it? @@flubru7742
Rick - you are knocking it out of the park with these reviews. Very informative, fair and just the right length to give me the info I need without becoming too bogged down with too much detail.
Would love an SM9 to be in my bag for my golf trip to Portugal in October! 🤞🏻
Would be worth doing a session explaining what the different grinds mean and when they help/ don’t.
100% agree
TXG/Club Champion has vids on this
High bounce is best in soft turf and fluffy sand
Mid bounce is great for full shots or for playing with a square face
Low bounce is great for firm conditions, tightly packed sand and for players who like to manipulate the clubface on greenside shots
Here here. Need that video.
@@callumwilkinson1527this is all you need to know people.
would've been good to see how the vokey performed under wet conditions
I’m 57 and just picked up golf this year and love it. I would be out golfing every day if the wife would allow it 😂. I just discovered Rick and love his content.
The wedges Rick’s demonstrating today cost more than the entire set of clubs my brother gave me. He said he purchased them from Kmart 20 years ago thinking he was going to start golfing but never did.
Does Rick have any beginner videos? Hoping to get better golf clubs this Christmas, and take some lessons the spring.
Love the Content Rick, and rock on 🤘😎
take the lessons before you buy the clubs and spend a little more money and buy them from your teaching pro , that way you will actually get something suited to your game .
Would love to see a side by side comparison on how much improvement the new model is to the old one. Thank you for creating this channel, I am thoroughly enjoying it!
Would have liked to see the spin rate on a wet vokey to compare them but great review Rick, TM bringing back the 48’ in the lineup also is a plus as they left it out of the MG3’s i believe, a lot of gapping options now.
I was wondering the same thing about the vokey spin rate when wet. Would be interesting to see the comparison.
Loving the new content from the H.I.T studio, Rick and the team doing a fantastic job as always. Would've been interesting to see the drop off in spin for the SM9 in the same wet conditions.
My dad has some Taylormade Hi-Toe wedges and I just tried one of his today on the range. I completely agree with you about the weight of the club and being able to tell where the clubhead is throughout the swing. Thanks for the review and the numbers to back it up!
With the price of wedges going crazy high now, I think I will be sticking to my Kirkland’s. They perform great for me and very consistent. As much as I would love a set of vokeys, at £150 a set that’s just mental.
@@stove22 is that down to gapping you want those lofts? Not barely different so you could hood or open up the Kirkland’s for the same distances. 60 is very handy for a short sided green shot
@@stove22 I wonder if they ever do give options. Hopefully it doesn’t affect he price as I think they’re great. The newer versions than mine look even nicer
Would have been cool to see the Vokey’s spin rate difference when wet as well. Great video, Rick!
Hi Rick, Highly recommend trying out the Wilson Staff Wedges. Easily the softest feeling wedges I've found. I think you'll be surprised with how much you like them. Love the old school rounded leading edge as well!
YES! Been waiting for this, Wilson has a deal 2 wedges for $200, and no one has a review on them.
I found the Cleveland wedges are very soft
Just started golfing this year and I got to say, your video have helped me out a ton! Glad I found this channel because my grandpas bag is pretty beat and I’ll be in the market for a new setup next season. Cheers!
I really think you should add the club/ball data from GCquad (via reflective dots) it would show us more about where you have hit the club etc. keep up the good work!
Awesome to see the TaylorMade perform so well. But at this point its hard to switch from a Vokey.
This channel is unreal, love the content and the production congrats Rick and team on another belting enterprise!
Would love to see you review the Callaway CB wedges. I tried them at a fitting and fell in love (high handicapper). To me they had that feel that the ball was just popping off of them, almost like you say you're looking for here. Much easier to hit almost every shot with for me, and I bet there's a good group of higher handicap players here that might find them useful as well!
CB2 full face are incredible wedges…but don’t take the graphite one….too light . I had to add on lead tape to increase the weight. I’m a 17 handicap player.
ErEf, Montréal, Canada
Really loving this channel. Happy to see Taylormade is continuing to step up their game.
Gotta love seeing taylormade step up their wedge game! They have been killing it in everything else, it was about time they made a wedge that could truly compete with vokey!
Im just a beginner golfer but i like watching your review channel as well as the main channel. You have given me lots of insight on what clubs to get and how to better my game by some things i need to try. I currently dont have any degree wedges but this review is making me lean a bit to the vokey's wedges.
レンドンか？
I bought the club based on your review. It's literally the worst golf club I have ever bought in my life! So much rust the grooves! The sharpness is completely gone from the grooves due to the rust! Cannot get the club to bite for nothing!
Pretty sure that was the point, for them to rust cuz they say rust gives more spin. So they did exactly as they said they would
@@Daniel-xx3ehlet's kill that myth now, rusty wedges DO NOT spin more. You want clean grooves to disperse grass, moisture etc. People see tour players spin than ball and notice their wedges are rusty so they think that's what's causing the spin. All the rust does is cut down glare, and sometimes they can feel slightly softer because they are raw, no chrome or other coating
Hit two shots out of the sand and the excess rust will be gone. You don't want rust build up, it's for aesthetics. The rust does not create spin. That's all up to you and the quality of your strike
@@yourbestgolf365 I’m just saying what they say, I don’t own them or ever used them so I can’t debate. Some pros say rusty wedges add more spin. In my experience rust can be rough which could be grippy but idk I don’t play enough to know.
@@Daniel-xx3eh That has been around for years but is simply not true. It's one of those things that refuses to go away. The raw club head COULD help add spin over a chrome covered head though
I got the new MG4 chrome wedges about 2 months ago, 54 and 58 degree and I’ve been absolutely loving them around the greens. Great feel and great spin numbers.
I love my MG3 wedges. The extra face roughness of the MG4 seems intriguing though. Would be interested to see a comparison in the wet against the Ping Hydropearl.
It will wear off after 2-3 rounds
Loving the new channel! You mentioned not finding soft wedges, the softest I’ve experienced so far have been the Mizuno S23’s. Absolutely love them for my short game.
That Vokey design looks absolutely incredible! Would love to have such a premium wedge in my beginner set :)
3months into learning and understanding the sport and all your videos helped a ton! Appreciate you and the work
Just got back into golf after not playing for 10 years, would love a 56 degree vokey in the bag! Great video!
CONGRATULATIONS!! You have been picked at random to win a Vokey SM9 Wedge. Please contact us at info@rickshiels.com so you can claim your prize. (This is my official account)
I am using the Mizuno T22 and for a newbie like, it feels soft and controllable. Cheers from Jakarta, Indonesia!
Great video Rick. I'm returning to golf after 2 decades out. Still using clubs I bought in 2000. I've found your videos fantastic for bringing myself up to date with the latest club and ball tech. Thanks.
@craigbunyan, you and I are in the EXACT same situation. I dusted off my old S200 TaylorMade irons and have been trying to catch up with all the new tech. I’ve been binging Rick’s channels!
Love all your content Rick. During our winter in Canada I watch and learn from you while I wait to get on the course again. The club reviews are excellent and help me choose what Im going to invest in each season. Appreciate the effort, keep it coming.
I'm fairly new to golfing and I love watching these videos too see what clubs are good and too help my fundamentals in the golf course! Thank you for all the informative videos!
Just as I’m starting to look for new wedges, cheers Rick
Keep up the great videos Rick. It’s nice to see videos like this to keep up to date on all the newest golf clubs and series
Its great to see competition for wedges, as one of the most important parts of golf is the short game and a proper club selection is very important
Keeping it simple new to golf but loving it new wedge would be great good luck to everyone
Currently rocking the MG2 Wedges, have had a love and hate relationship with them particularly my 56. Would adore a vokey 56!! Great video as always, trying to get my handicap down to singles and your videos really help with that! Also was awesome to see you play North Berwick the other day as I played it too and seeing you play the same course was awesome!
Rick your new studio looks insane, I love the wedge content, I'm currently playing a tour excellence 60' from 1996, I love it and I would love to take that Vokey of your hands. Your fan from South Africa.
Have used TM wedges for years, and I've always loved the head shape. That's why I've stuck with them!
Perfect timing. I just went through the wedge selection for the Vokey wedges. I have been using the M60 for a few months and adding three more for my xmas present. lol
Currently have the Kirkland wedges in the bag. Never had the opportunity to use a really good brand of wedge before. Though the Kirkland wedges are really good for my needs and wasn't hard on the bank account.
Was about to pull the trigger on some SM9s… might need to look at these just to make sure. Thanks!
Another very helpful comparison and honest detail. I'm guessing I could help test the water effects here in Ireland... 😂
Just done a wedge fitting. Currently play MG3s. Vokeys were nice but spin massively inconsistent off similar hits for me ranging from 7000 to 9500revs, with carry ranging 11yds front to back. Cleveland RTX6 were just so, so consistent in comparison. Spin rates of 8500-8900, and carry distances ranging three yds front to back.
i could really use the vokey wedge, i just started golf and i‘m in need of a nice wedge. keep up the great work!
Awesome video. Watching your video from sunny south africa. Definitely think vokey wedges are the gold standard in wedges I have a 56 that has seen better days and is also like 20years old😂 wish I could share a picture
I am thinking about changing my wedges next year so this video has been very helpful. Thanks
perfect for re-start my Golf journey... havent played for roughly 24 years last as a teenager and this would boost ignite my new found golf ambition
Great video. They look interesting but the price is steep. Currently, I have Mac Daddy wedges in the bag and I love them. Would love to have the vokey wedge as I have used them in the past and have enjoyed them. Thanks, Rick!
Hey Rick. Loving the videos and unbiased reviews. Keep it up as I need all the help I can get. A new wedge wouldn't hurt my game though. 😊
Just started playing golf and love all the reviews and comparisons good to know for when I upgrade the bag
Great review especially including a wet testing as the uk is notorious for its wet summers
Glad I found where you went to. I sure have missed watching your videos. Keep up the good work.
I have the Callaway Jaws Raw wedges. When they go rusty as they are designed to do they just look dirty. I've seen tests where rust was proven to add no spin at all. So who knows if that's worth going for. When my current wedges are due for replacement I'm going for the Vokeys. I also believe that there is a new version in the pipeline.
love this new review channel and how honest you make all the reviews you do
I use Hi Toe 3 wedges and I love them. If they did a full face range I’d gladly stick these in the bag!
As always! Great review! I’ve been looking hard at the MG4 wedges. I would love to see you do a review on the Smithworks wedges.
Love the video Rick! Really enjoying your new channel. Very expensive wedges there but good to finally have a competitor to the Vokey’s
Another great video! Seriously, I find myself listening from beginning to end. Can’t say that for every reviewer.
Just getting started off in golf, but really love you’re videos!
Awesome review!
I just picked up a new Vokey wedge, and it feels like a whole new game. Vokey holds the torch in the wedge market, but with the new MG4’s (aside from the TW grind), they are bringing some serious competition. But only time, and tour use, will tell.
Been Watching your vids for years. Great to see you have your dream studio it looks awsome looking forward to you next review
Need a 56 to complete my wedge setup for my bag. Great video.
Oooooooo. TM has outdone themselves with these wedges!! If Rick says he could “potentially” put these in the bag, maybe I should replace my Cleveland wedges!! The SM series from Titleist though is the goat!!
I currently use the Taylormade ATV wedges and love them! But that vokey looks stunning! I’d be more than happy with a set of vokey or MG4s! 🔥
I would love the 56 degree, i currently don’t have one and it would fit perfectly into my bag 👍🏻
Great video! I ordered my MG4s and waiting for them to ship.
Good stuff Rick. Loved the water portion of the testing
Looking for my first set of wedges, your videos are the first place I start my research. Cheers mate 👍🏻
Rick!! You MUST review the 3-piece wedge set made by Kirkland sold in Costco (wholesale store in USA). $170 USD for 3 wedges. The talk on the town is that they are a solid value for wedges, especially since highly used wedges should be replaced so often.
Love the channel, and I think your US fans would love to see the Kirklands in your studio.
In January of this year, I bought the Taylormade MG3 grind wedges. They are some of the best wedges I've ever played.
Really liking that TM wedge as I am currently looking for a new one for my bag. I couldn’t pass up on a Vokey though!
Thanks Rick, I was about to pull the trigger and get the Hi-Toe 3 wedges. I'll be waiting to test these new ones out now.
Never have swung a volley wedge but did just pick up a couple of TaylorMade wedges. Hoping to pickup the last wedge @ 56° in about a week.
I found a 4 piece set of Vokey SM8s in black today at Goodwill for $4.00 a piece. I couldn't believe my eyes, but walked straight to the checkout and put them right in my bag! Lucky day for sure
Always been a fan of your content my friend! Just subscribed to the HIT channel…love the deeper dive into products! Keep it coming!
The amount of bunkers I find, I’ll have that etching shined off to a mirror finish in no time!
Fresh into golf this season and I'm loving it so far. Slowly going to upgrade my set as I learn more.
I would love the wedge!
Glad I saw your video because I have followed at your other site but I want this site for your testing of clubs.
Thanks for what you do!
Rick, Great information as always. Since this was a few months ago, I wonder how the 2024 wedges, like the Mizuno T24s. I’m going out to try them all. I need new wedges. Keep the videos coming.
Just got my 54 and 58 vokeys, tried them out during the weekend and loved them. Wouldn’t mind a 56 to add to the bag 😂
Thanks for the review Rick. I actually won a club from your other channel a year or two ago; They never sent the club I suppose because I was located in Asia and not the U.K ?? Not your fault and again thanks for this channel and you reviews.
Need myself a set of new edges and this would be a great start for it. might get the taylormade one after this
It is great that there are so many good wedge options now. I have never got on with Vokey. I have no idea why this is the case. My current wedges are the HI-Toe. I would have loved to see the Vokey in wet conditions. Yes there was a drop in numbers on the TaylorMade but I wonder what if the drop off would have been the same, better or worse from the Vokey. Thanks for the review Rick.
and I was just looking at buying my first Vokey too. Now maybe need to wait for a Taylor Made... Hmmmmm decisions. That's why I love this channel!!!
Awesome review as always. I noticed you were at about 3 mph slower with the club and ball wet. Could that be from it sliding on the face before launching or you swinging slower?
Great seeing these comparison videos.
Loving the video in the market for actual wedges so great info in this one.
I have never owned a Vokey, but I have heard so many good things about their wedges and have thought about getting them at some point!
Loving the channel. Would love to add the Vokey to my bag😊
Absolutely loving the new channel and content, thanks for all the hard work
I would take both any day of the week. What is the feel difference between either and the Indio wedge. Because I bought the Indio wedge based on our review of them and I find the wedge very head heavy and slightly out of balance versus my Irons. Thanks for the review Rick!
Yes massive performance!!! I’d love to get this in my bag and replace a 10 year old wedge!!!
Subscribed! Currently using the Kirkland wedges and my playing partners roast me, so I could benefit from that wedge!!
I’d love to be able to give my dad that Vokey wedge. He has loved them since he’s been playing and had to sell them a few years back but has been wanting to get a 56 degree back. Keep it up with the videos I love them
Very good video. Your method of testing was excellent and very easy to relate to.
Played Vokey wedges along time just tried the new Taylor made will be playing these wedges now better feeling nice weight.
Love a wedge review, and would love a new 56°!! Keep up the good work mate!
happy you showed the MG4 doesnt wear well. sometimes the new tech seems more like a flash in the pan rather than the tried and true:)
My favorite RUclips golf channel. Thank you!
