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.

Love your content Rick!
Break #75 is superb, keep up the great work👍🏼
Hello
Love the content
448 in early!
Massive respect you show everything, warts and all. Could easily bin this, film a quick one elsewhere or make an excuse why there was no episode. Keep going dude 🤟
Lol he doesn't care about his score. He wants $ (RUclips views). Having his title say "I got a 9 on a par 3" made me click it.
@@seanpalmer4248 BOT
My exact thoughts. We all know rick is absolutely capable of breaking 75 but he also is just like all of us with those tough days. Respect for showing those days
Absolutely spot on
This is arguably better content, so why would you not uplode it?
Break75 is one of those productions where I click it to full-screen, grab a snack and beverage, put my feet up and enjoy 20+ minutes of my favorite youtuber/golf instructor play the sport we all love. Good, Bad, or Ugly, this is hands down my favorite way to relax and destress. Thank you Rick for such amazing content and for also fixing my slice! 😁
Love this. Watching perfect golf all the time is actually very demoralising. Seeing that even a legend can have a bad day and hate himself for it makes me feel more normal. Keep it real Rick ❤
Legendary golf youtuber, not legendary golfer, thought I’d clarify that
@@grimacemcdonald1 actually RICK is very very good
@@matthewcrook6585 Matt there is no way you aren't english. "Pedantic Numpty" hahaha, I love it brother!
This is the best golf RUclips video ever
Oh, Stacked Golf! Here! Loved your recent video when you found for 2$ a vintage Ping B66 putter worth 400$. Really good stuff!👍👍
No way. That time you found some clubs AND some Pyrex was. ;)
But did it have stacked golf bingo? I didn't see pyrex or Disney!
Between you and Pete you've both given me the kick needed to get out there and try and take the game seriously. Last year was normal for me to go out and barely break 100 in 18. Just shot 81 on Monday, trying to break 80 myself! You got this RIck!
If you’re damn near breaking 80 after 1 year of playing golf and averaging 100 the year before. What par 3 course you play?
@@Scheboygan8767 Haha I should have clarified, Ive played golf off and on growing up but never really took it seriously (as in not just drinking my face off and playing whack fuck everywhere). And funny guy, never actually played a par 3 course in my life yet (wedge game is awful TBH, probably shoot worse there haha)
I'm 12, can rarely hit 160 with driver, not bad urself
Thanks for this Rick. I love the fact that you’ve had a really bad day and have still shared it with us rather than just binning the footage and pushing out a different episode. Makes us average players who have those in the locker in every hole feel that tiny bit better!!
Absolute honesty as always. Wrist injury means I haven’t picked up a club in 4 weeks and don’t know when I’ll swing again, so being able to watch you play like a mortal keeps the hope alive. Great stuff as always Rick.
Honestly, I absolutely love the openness and honestly with your golf and allowing us to see everyone has an off day or two sometimes, thank you!
100%!
I love how real he is with everything he does. Genuinely glad to see his videos come out. Kept me going through quarantine
As many before me wrote - massive respect for showing everything. This is why I love the show. It's relatable, as you are fantastic golf player and teacher but also a human being with same emotions as all of us on the course. Truly inspirational!
Thanks for showing a round like this, many golf RUclipsrs would never show us this and it just proves that golf really is hard no matter how good you are. Makes you that much more relatable Rick
This was the most entertaining video yet! Comedic gold. And Rick I’m proud of you for the humility to show it and let us all laugh at you. I love this channel. Great stuff.
This is one of my favorite videos of yours. Shows so many things, but the commentary illuminates the mental game and just how much it can wreck a round. Happened to me just yesterday!!
Rick, this is such a service to new golfers like me. I started playing a year ago, and my goal was to break 90 by now. Even though I'm consistently in the 90's it FEELS like I've regressed and gotten worse, so I know EXACTLY how you felt on EVERY shot of this round. So 3 takeaways for me:
(1) you may have been boiling inside, but your outward expression was quite good for being so far off your best
(2) if I scored +12 I'd be happy as a puppy with two peters, so it's all down to perspective and
(3) you didn't bail on that round (as I tend to do as soon as I have a bad hole) which is (a) a waste of a round for myself and (b) ruins it for anyone playing with me.
When I think of the rounds I've wasted doing the OPPOSITE of what you've done here, I want to give up the game...but seeing how you went about it here, from this day forth, I can turn it around, follow your example and never waste another round again.
Thank you!
Rick is probably the only golf RUclipsr who would sit and laugh at himself. Seems like a genuine guy. Shank you very much rick!

Rick - I’m coming back to golf as I’ve been forced to stop almost everything else due to a paralysis. I can still play but I get frustrated. Just wanted you to know that you having a tough day isn’t letting us down, on the contrary, it’s a reminder of the complexities of the game. Love the channel. Cheers
Amen brother. I'm getting into golf again as it is one of the few things I can do outside while getting treated for brain cancer. Stay strong, you've got this
@@markscamander1587 And you son.
Watching this , while just broke par 1st time in my life. 4 birdies,3 bogies! Life is just so much better, now I can finally retire🥳🥳🥳. I feel your pain RS! That is golf
Mad respect for you playing for us all @Rickshiels . Love the rawness you provide in these challenges. Remember, anytime you might make a mistake, we make them with you because we've all been there at one point. I've got faith you'll break 75 soon.
9 on a par 3.
For Rick it's embarrassing.
For me it's bragging.
So thoroughly enjoyed this latest episode of break 85! Thanks Rick!
😂😂😂
LMFAOOOOO
😂😂😂
Lol
love all the videos Rick and stoked to see break 75 back. hard to see you struggle at the start like this. but i also love seeing videos like this. for most i feel like it makes the video that much more relatable, like i can see myself hitting some of these shots. it is refreshing to see the poor shots as well as the good ones on videos here! keep it up, cant wait for more of this. from a member in the clubhouse
I just shot 13 shots over my handicap today on a terrible day for golf (windy cold and wet), and yet still came out loving it! After getting home and watching this video, it makes me feel even better knowing that great golfers such as yourself still have moments like this par 3. What a game we play!
Keep at it Rick! I had water troubles on a par 3 during a family tournament. Took a 16... but the next day on the same hole I jarred it for my first ever hole in one!
I’m so happy that Break 75 is back. I rewatch lots of the prior ones so new content is always awesome. Keep up the great work and thanks for the great content for all these years
Honestly Rick. It is enjoyable to watch. Not the bad golf part. But the fact that a crappy high teens handicapper like me does the same thing that the guy I watch to get tips from. Just like me, you get frustrated, you get rush(y) with your swings, you make odd decisions trying to make up for your bad ones, and last you play golf like a human being. I have learned one thing and well pretty much one thing only this year (picking golf back up in my mid 30's with a slew of injuries and issues). Sometimes mid round, you just have to stop take a couple breaths, stretch a few muscles and take your swing back to the basics with a very slow back swing. Not to mention the 80 tips I'm still trying to get down that I've gathered from your videos. Watching this type of video has done nothing but up my respect factor for you. Can't wait to watch the rest of the series!
Love your videos and this series is amazing!! Glad you brought it back. Very relatable content!
Best feel good video for a weekend warrior EVER. I never take solace in someone's struggle, but seeing that bad golf can happen to good players, makes it OK for me to hit the errant shot without getting too down on myself. Better golf will come!
Another great episode! Glad to see the shanks hit even the good players. Entered a tournament last weekend. Had my worst round in 2 years. Wanted to quit and not even play the 2nd day. Stuck with it. Made up 12 strokes. Still finished last but I didn’t quit. In a weird way, I believe bad golf makes us stronger. Cheers!
Huge respect for still posting rick, this is the reason why people like you, it's because they can connect and understand you. Keep the break 75 series going brother. Never to old to try improve your game... love yard from back in Australia mate 👌
Watching you recap the round is fun to watch! Interesting to hear what is going through your head for each shot. How much fun will it be to watch the replay video when you do break 75! Go Rick Go!
I appreciate the vulnerability Rick. I have had a few snowmen on par3s and it is so frustrating. I am still working on breaking 80. I had a chance in December but it got too dark to finish. I completed 16 at a 69 with a Par 5 and a Par 4 remaining.
I want to see a "Break 75" where Rick has a couple of beers over the course of the round. I think it would settle the nerves and lower the scores 😁
British golfers don’t do that stupid shit. If they want to drink they go to the pub
Golf without beer is like bread without butter ✊
Gotta have atleast 2 on the front and 2 or 3 on the back for that swing oil
I’d have to agree if you are just walking around with the crew and nothing else on the line
We all say “I play better soaked” but it’s the relaxing nature of beer that makes us care less about the bad shots so we think we play better
I've just found golf again after years. I'm trying to break 100. It's winter here, so all driving range, but it is so useful to see where the wheels come off and the thought processes. The number of times I've been feeling great after 4 (all bogeys) and then I start ratcheting the pressure and get right out of my head because of a simple mistake. Thanks @Rick. - so useful to see. I know that must be painful, but it helps us out too!
Honestly this is what I needed to see today. I’m getting back into playing golf after not playing for 10 years. And I played sooo sooo sooo bad today and it was very frustrating. This helps remind me that it’s just a game and I have to take any chance I can to keep working on my game. Your videos have been hugely helpful and something I wish I had 10 years ago.
Thank you!
Fair play for showing this and not caning it off what makes the channel so good it’s real life! Keep up the good work!
Oh God Bless you. I used to play competitive golf, havent really played in 20 years now and am generally unable to just go out and play because well, I suck. Your happy demeanor (at least after the fact), gives me inspiration that maybe one day I'll be able go out/play again and enjoy myself (vs. grinding for 5 hrs./realizing) it really is about having fun/remains a game. Bravo. I watch your vids more than I should. :-) Carry On soldier. You are a good egg
So my dad used to play off a 7 handicap back in his day, he stopped playing golf for probably about 20+ years until I picked up the game at 16. 10 years later and he's not the way he was (mostly due to age) but we enjoy it, it keeps him moving. Not only that but I bet you've forgot how nice it is to hit those good shots when you do haha. Don't give it up man its never too late!
@@ryanreynolds3630 I was scratch and always a grinder. I just despise playing poorly. To jump back in I'd have to accept that, and doing so is kinda hard for a lifelong competitor. Still I know there is joy out there in the game (one which i love), I just have a hard time forgetting what I taught myself- which is to HATE losing/playing badly. :-)
You are amazingly honest and humble, thank you for reminding us that even great golfers can have bad days and sharing this with us!! Keep up the great work, Rick!!!
Great lessons to be taken from this one about hanging in there. Thanks for posting it! Great fun from you two as always.
Love the effort both on the course and on making these videos! Great job Rick and team!
As someone who’s mis hit IS a dead shank, I can totally feel your pain. So many rounds have been ruined by a bad case of shanks that just creep into my swing
That's no fun. Shanks are worst
Great video, and the fact that you have shown yourself, and your reaction, to when you have played the worst golf on this channel, is very inspiring. It also goes to show how good you are the rest of the time, and how you don't edit your videos to make yourself look better.
I love your channel and have been enjoying everything. Learning loads so I can break 100. I love this episode most because you show that even good golfers have bad days, so I can't get too hard on myself. I will say that I watched your episodes about chipping and not using your wrists, but it seemed that you used your wrists greatly on this course. I can't wait for the episode where you break 70! Great stuff and thanks for what you do.
LOVE THIS SERIES! It’s a special year for golf! Maybe it’s the 150th open. Maybe it’s the story of Scheffler. Maybe it’s SEASON 2 OF BREAK 75!!!
As someone who has days like that far more often than he has days that are "good," I felt the pain in the pit of my stomach. Beautiful course and a great video.
Thanks Rick, you are an amazing golfer and very inspiring. I struggle the most with the putter and the way you aggressively run at each hole is something I strive for every round.
i feel sooooo much better about going out this weekend....just knowing that we are all human. Thanks Rick! love you, your humility and all your videos are gold. Cheers mate.
Videos like this really show how hard golf can be, especially mentally.
Goes to show how only a few people in the world can do this on a tour level.
This was a great video- made me feel like we are all battling this golf obsession together. I was pretty down after my 84 today- had a blowout hole like Rick had- but now,after watching this honest video, I can't wait to get out and have a go at it again. Thanks,Rick!
That's hilarious because my best score is an 84. That's why I love golf, you're playing against yourself and the goals YOU set.
Thanks for sharing Rick. Class act. I found myself last week lined up for an 8 foot Eagle putt. Slight pull left, which I am ok with. Then rushed my 1.5 footer for Birdie and missed. Heart breaking....The game of golf. She giveith, and she takeith away. Keep the videos coming. Love em!
Glad you posted this. It lets those of us weekend warriors who get so frustrated on the course realize that hey, it's a tough game. You've got to put time into it to get better. Otherwise, just go and enjoy the day, your friends, and a couple drinks. Back in the day I was a 6 handicap, but I played once to twice a week. Now I'm lucky to shoot low to mid 80's. But I still love the game. Thanks for the content! Cheers!
Love this video. Makes me feel like I’m not insane myself. This game is incredibly hard. Thank you for making us mere mortals feel normal!!
i love the breakdown! such a good idea to commentate over it
Absolutely AMAZING views! Thank you for sharing these experience 🤙🏼
If Rick isn't the most humble down to earth RUclips golfer than I don't know who is. Thank you for biting the bullet and showing the entire 18 holes so we can see how even a golf pro can struggle and hit some down right awful shots. The language is honestly to be expected but your demeanor and will to still play good golf was prevalent. Keep up the videos, this is one of my favorite series to watch.
Rick, just wanted to let you know. I’ve been struggling with this a lot too and when you go back you open the face wide open almost and if your hands don’t flip in the most perfect way at the bottom, then there will be very inconsistent results. Especially in tournament or stressful conditions, flipping is not as a reliable way to swing than rotating and keeping the face square
Rick, I've been watching your channel for a good while now, whilst getting myself from about a 105 round, to an 85. Teach me how to draw and fade, teach me about ball striking, it's all good. However, watching that par 3 gives me, and I am sure, millions more, hope ! Great to share the misery with you, and great to see you can laugh about it. Nice one
I never really comment on videos, but over the last 2 years I've been watching your videos, you have made the game of golf way more enjoyable and less frustrating. I went from shooting just over 100 down to low 80s in a year all thanks to your videos, if anyone hasn't yet they should watch and listen to what you have to say. Bad shot or good shot you know how to laugh ot off and has taught me to just laugh it off aswell, thanks a bunch Rick!
Love the videos- went to the range today for 60 balls, this video gives me my confidence back- great players have off moments as well- keep the videos coming
Rick: "I made a 9 on a par 3 awful golf.""
Me: "Only a 9 on a par 3 not too bad."
7th shot (putt up the hill) was actually kind of good.
This very thing happened to me in my US Open qualifier! I was cruising around at 1 under par and then I hit a shank from the middle of the fairway on the 6th hole. I ended up making a 9 on that hole after 2 balls in the water. On the next hole I missed a SIX INCH PUTT for bogey. I lost my damned mind and all I could hit were shanks the rest of the round. I went from thinking I could medal to not even breaking 90. Now I have to petition the USGA to let me try again next year lmao.
When ever I start with a score in my head I always play poorly. Too much pressure? That’s why every interview with the tour Pros they all say don’t think about the results…..only the process. Thanks Ric for being brave and showing us how we normally play the game we love.
This is why we love you Rick!! You are honest and show that no matter who you are or how well you play....we all have bad days! Cheers mate!
Three minutes in and I'm predicting the EvnRoll makes a comeback into the bag next week
Rick should have never got rid of the EvnRoll
The old two ball odyssey has got to go 🤮🤮🤮
Needs to read Bob Rotella's putting book 👍
Honestly really like the commentary. I think that you’re so used to talking to the camera that you just now do it during all your golf, when maybe if you just really focused and did post commentary your shoot better. Also I think it would be a really cool series of videos if you got lessons or had a mental coach walk you through a round! Love the channel Rick and guy!
I'm one of your biggest fans and I have to say this is one of your best videos. It just shows that even the best of golfers can shot a rough day. This video helped give me some confidence that even when I have a crap game, there's also a pro somewhere that's having it just as hard.
I know that pain... That's what most of my rounds look like! 😆 Much respect to showing not only your great moments on your channel, but days like this that we all struggle with. I'm betting on you for the next round!
Its good to know that even the good golfers - and you are good Rick, can get it wrong. Makes me who is a real slasher at golf but enjoys it - feel a lot better. Thank you. Cheers from Australia.
One PGA pro to another, absolutely loving the content Rick!
Ooooooh PGA PRO friends!!
Another one here 👋
Yeah nice content Rick, super stuff.
@@danbarton846 fair play 🤣🤣🤣
I love seeing the reality of golf even for a fantastic golfer like you Rick. We all have bad days on the course and next time it happens to me I’ll remember we all go through it. Keep up the great vids 👍 until next time.
Rick, thank you for this, really. Thought it was just me that had rounds like this. I appreciate your honesty and courage in posting this; guess we're not all tour pros, right?!
I don’t generally comment on videos so here goes… appreciated watching the “real” round as it would be easy to edit out the “not so good” shots and only leave the great ones. It just re-emphasises that we’ll all have good and bad days on the course and we should be grateful that we actually get to play this wonderful, yet frustrating, game.
Mentally you’re playing like an amateur. You’ve got the knowledge and the skills. Maybe a podcast with a sports psychologist would help all of us. Thx Rick.
Love this video! It is why Rick is the best RUclips golfer out there. He post everything and is honest. Other RUclipsrs throw out the bad shots and retake it. Thanks Rick for the honesty.
I’m glad you have a good sense of humor about it. We all know you’re an excellent golfer but this makes us hacks feel better about ourselves. If it can happen to you, it can happen to anybody. Keep up the great content.
"Rick how many did you get on that hole?"
"I shot a 9."
"I'm putting you down for a 6."
We all need friends like this.
Rick Shiels, the face of driving range pros everywhere!
Great work Rick! Thank you for showing us behind the scenes. Nice to see someone of your level shank too!
Great video Rick loving your honesty I often do 9 on a par 3 but I'm learning from your videos about frame of mind, attitude, & getting slightly better. I've not been yet this year as I'm getting over covid which has left me short on energy🙂⛳
I don't understand how a pro can be so bad at golf. rick you're great but I just don't understand.
It’s actually comforting to see an exceptional golfer have days like this 😂
He is not exceptional
I love how you show that everyone has a bad day. I just played my first varsity tournament today and played the worst golf that I’ve ever played. I was really disappointed because I had played some of the best gold of my life in the rounds right before today. And then I completely lost it. Thank you for showing that it’s not just me and for being a positive person even when you don’t play how you want!
Splendid! Thank you for posting a video that I can absolutely relate to when it comes to playing golf.
Thanks for hanging in there Rick and showing us your game, warts and all. Can’t wait for the next episode.
Great to see raw golf reactions and mindsets. Conwy is a tough track. great video. Looking forward to the next one.
Love your content. You show the good and the not so great. Thank you for sharing it all. I am an awful golfer, but I love the game.
Keep it up.
Rick, I’ve been watching you for years now, and the content just keeps getting better and better. You are always so transparent and that’s what I love about your channel. To me, you and guga foods (cooking channel) pump out the best content on RUclips. Much respect from California. Would love to see you come play a course in San Diego.. maybe Torrey Pines?? 🧐
Really enjoyed the play by play with you two. Can't wait for the next one.
Absolutely great content! It resonates with me so much. When you going to golf course and trying to have a good time, and stuff happened. I once smashed my driver because I cannot hit a good drive. I guess better eq translates to better golfer😢
Thanks Rick for this video, this is very relatable to all golfers good and bad. It's nice to know that even the best players in the world have rounds that even despite playing some good shots lead to bad situations. Which inturn leads to bad shots. Probably one of my favorite videos from you.
Rick can i just thank you for showing this episode of break 75, i have just returned from my Saturday round of golf being the 1st round of club championships, i play off 6 and so wanted a good 1st round, starting with 5 straight pars and feeling really good and confident to playing the last 13 holes a mere 19 over, this is my golf just lately, now, watching your round and not to be taking the micky but its just made me realise that THIS IS GOLF, you changed my day going from pissed off to thinking mmmmm im not the only one out there suffering,,LOL, by the way please indulge me of having just a very very small chuckle at the shanks,,,maaaannn those things seem to come from out of nowhere and always when ya just dont need em,,,,CHEERS from the Barossa Valley in South Australia.
Hi Guy and Rick! I had a round eerily similar to this earlier this year, with back to back shanks out of nowhere on a par 3. I managed to beat you by carding and 8. 😂 What a game! Thanks for all the content you guys bring, wildly entertaining and relatable. Simply class!
I absolutely LOVE the wii sports baseball cutaway, very clever 😂. I appreciate that you show everything, no matter how bad. But, you follow those up with some excellent shots, pure strikes, and all of a sudden, after the round they become laughable moments. It's what keeps us coming back for more in golf. Also, I really enjoyed the section where you and guy break down the footage of the middle few holes. I think that should be a feature you guys do, could be another video idea. Kind of like a "Break75 - The19th hole" thing. If you do decide to do it, feel free to use the name 😁 lol
Thank you for showing this episode. I know it’s no comfort to you, but for we recreational golfers, it’s nice to see that everyone has tough days on the course. Again, thanks.
Good on you for showing this. Love your channel!
Total honesty on a beautiful course, played there for years when I lived in the area, not a course to learn golf on!!! Glad to see the corrugated iron verandah roof has been replaced. Thanks Rick, great video.
appreciate how you show bad golf and can still smile, a lot of us appreciate that. You've helped me enjoy every single game of golf since ive started watching
Dear Rick, Just wanted to say THANKS for showing this. Social media these days is so polished and people need to be better at sharing when shits happens and that is what you do!
Not everyone comes to see 300+ yard drives in to perfect positions all the time, golf is a process, and Break75 shows this very clearly! Respect!
Absolutely loved this,makes me feel better after a bad round,keep up the good work Rick.
Love it Rick! Golf as it really is for the rest of us! Some great swings, but just one of those days.
You fronted up well….RESPECT..
