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.

Hope you did it 💪🏻💪🏻
Amazing video Rick
now i Watched it and holy cow some of them came so Close 😳😳 amazing Content 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
This video was great, but a hit off with yourself , Matt and Peter could make an entertaining video
The Edoardo Molinari syndrome 😭
Can we just appreciate the editing of this video, kept me on the edge of my seat for the whole thing 👏👏
Yeah, I thought it could go either way
For real. Editing was top notch
Rick's editing team is top notch - the music track was perfect. Well done.
It’s called epic music, and no, doesn’t mean it’s “great” music
@@X22GJP who are you quoting there?
I've got a yellow Topflight XL sitting in my hole in one trophy from 35 years ago. I skulled it and it flew 155 yards never more than 10 feet off the ground. We thought it went over the green and as a last resort I looked in the hole and there it was!
Congratulations mate, when your luck is in, it's in!!!!
Watched this last night, really enjoyed and totally inspired went and played my local course and got my first ever hole in one this afternoon after playing on and off for 50 years!!😂 Thanks also for all the tips and tricks, really helped, especially the extra distance on the irons from yesterday (25-4-22)!
Lies
@@ragnar930 LOOL give him a break, he's old brotha
Never ever heard Rick do so much swearing. Too funny 😂
Great video. If you attempt it again, though, it would be cool to see your stats for the 500 balls. Number that hit the green, number that finished within 10 feet, within 5 feet, etc. Could be something easy for the guys tending the green to do for you.
Good call here. Those stats would be fun to see.
Or you could offer to do it?
I'd like to see the spatial distribution. He should also have tried different balls for different spins.
That's what I was wondering. Were those all just your usual ProV1 Rick or did you hit something else? Wonder if a spinner ball would've helped. Great video though!!
It's funny how many of those shots you would be so ecstatic with in a regular round, even the first and last ones, but so angry with in this challenge. 😂
The most shots I ever did at once was 300 getting fit for all my clubs. I was dying towards the ends and I’m a very athletic 21 year old guy. I couldn’t imagine doing 500, the torn glove and everything was crazy. Great effort man
About 10 years ago I was a crazy range rat. I would hit 170 a day ("jumbo" bucket) and sometimes double that up. It was fun, but the range I went to was mats only. Really tore up my wrist and elbows. Now I don't go to the range that often except to warm up before a round, and playing better than ever. go figure!
@@larrybud first year I played golf I went to the range everyday second year I only played the course and I think that’s the perfect recipe down to 15 HC
wuss
i would do similar at your age, had 25 years off without touching a club, now 47 and recently started playing again.... 80 balls and i am rekt haha. Age is brutal.
@@countryboy8870 I have a similar experience. Just recently started again at the age of 50 after 25+ years off. Sometimes I hit a small bucket before a round. I feel like I do better on the opening holes when I do that, but I feel it more toward the end. Gotta work on my stamina it seems. 😑
Awesome. Doing a video this challenging takes a lot of balls.
Funny
This is one of the best comments I have ever seen
Brilliant editing on this man 👏🏻👏🏻
Great to see two English legends here
your channel dead now bro
It’s so funny to hear Rick swear. I know he tries to keep the channel more kid friendly, but it’s really authentic to see his genuine reactions. 😂👍 golf just does that
Played my first 9 holes today in about 3 years and Rick has honestly got me back into golf. Thanks Rick!
I appreciate that you uploaded this, even in defeat. Keeping it real and honest is so refreshing in this age of photoshopping and creative editing to fool the audience. Thank you so much!!
Some great shots here but the real hero is the editing. Absolutely first class.
Just shows how difficult the odds are of making a hole in one! Props to Rick for attempting this and to the course staff for the maintenance!
Rick, I just got into golf a week ago and I’ve learned so much from you already! Love how you keep everything interesting man! Huge fan!
I've only had one hole-in-one in my life, and the ball hit the cart path first.
It's a metaphor for my life.
hahah love this
So... lucky bounces is the metaphor? Could be worse 😁
I got a hole in one a few weeks ago! Only problem was it was the wrong hole! My slice was horrible! lol
I’ve never had one but I’ve witness two. The second one was over a lake where there was a 1’ wooden bank w/ the green immediately after. A friend topped the ball, skipped it over the lake and wall and it went straight for the hole. Straight out of Augusta.
Task failed successfully 😂😂
55 years of playing this game, many as a scratch golfer and never even 1. I feel your pain!
The grit, determination and endless talking to a golf ball .......... brilliant well worth the watch.
Nice effort! Side note: You always do a good job thanking the folks that help with these videos. 👍
Very true - Rick seems like a proper gent :)
Love how good everyone’s morale starts off whenever a whole in one challenge is initiated lol. 100 balls in and mentally it all starts to crumble lol. Love it! Legend🙌🏾
Every time!
Got my first hole in one last Thursday then my mum sadly passed away the next day. Golf is full of highs and lows and I'm glad she got to see my first. Almost got another today. Love your channel fella
Well done 👍
@Ex troll Now living clean life It was filmed ffs
@Ex troll Now living clean life Jog on troll, you sad excuse of a human being
Is anything you say true or do you only loe on the Internet?
Well done fella. Sorry to hear about your mum lad
I'm not even a golfer but enjoy watching your videos. Your enthusiasm and engaging British manner keep me entertained.
Rick, gotta say, the effort and diligence to see this through hitting 500 golf balls is impressive. Major props to you and your crew as well as the green keepers for allowing you to tear up the tee box in the name of entertainment.
Absolutely loved this video!! The replays were killer! As always thanks Rick for the innovative/amazing content!
I loved the three shots side by side near the end. Lots of good editing techniques.
Loved this video! I got a hole in one once but not sure mini golf qualifies.
Rick, you have no idea how great it is to hear you swear during frustrating moments in golf…that’s a significant part of my golfing vocabulary based on my game, so it’s good to hear!
Great job editing that!!
My friend tried this challenge out at his home course and I went to watch him do it , we got up at 6:00 before the course opened to the public and he got it 22nd try and we just laughed we were done in 5 mins 😂
That’s bull right there
Stop the cap
Great lie! We all believe you. 🤣🤣🤣
Me to bro. I had 5 hole in ones before my 22 shot though. I just laughed because i did it first swing
I don't know if you're kidding, but 15 years ago, I was a 13 handicap and I took 50 balls to our local 10th par 3, with no aim in mind but to knock them as close as possible. Second ball went in. Not technically a hole in one, of course and the other 48 were between 2 and 20 metres from the hole. Finally got my first real hole in one in France about a year ago, with my mother-in-law as a witness.
Definitely expected you to get it! Even so 500 shots is a big effort! I’m doing 4 rounds in a day for prostate cancer in August! You should probably do it as you would be able to raise a lot for charity and it would make a great video!!
Who with a job has time for 4 rounds a day? lol
@@larrybud I mean 52 weekends and 28 days annual leave you'd imagine you could find one singular day spare? 😂😂
@@ALAW1919LUFC I don't have enough daylight for 4 rounds. Not at a public course, that for sure.
The music kept me on the edge off my seat and held my breath a few times well done for trying 500! Really enjoyed this video so did my 3 year old keep up the good work.
Rick’s videos have always made me want to play a round with him, but this one has more than ever. Rick, if you’re ever in the Philadelphia, Pennsylvania area send me a message and I’ll get us onto one of the nicest courses in the area.
What’s up Rick? Loving the videos! Thanks for always keeping me hooked on golf! Cheers from Ohio :)
Thanks Chris mate
Ayyy OH!
I know someone who had one… 😉. Cracking video chaps ⛳️🎥👍🏼
Got pictures of the trophy/mounting/display of the ball? curious to see how you display that accomplishment
Matt Scharf from good good golf just hit his second one lol good job guys keep it up
@@jonathonbennett8352 one was a par 4 in all and and the other one of the hardest par 3s on tour some shooting that.
That kept me at the edge of my seat! I was yelling at my monitor for the ball to go in. The video editing with the music was spectacular.....felt like a movie trailer. I can't imagine hitting 500 golf balls so kudos to you Rick. Enjoyed the video very much especially the cursing that was bleeped out!!
The one that rolled right past the hole had me yelling at my cat...
thank you for still posting this even tho you weren't successful! a lot of other channels wouldn't have but its refreshing to see someone being real and showing us the struggle and not just the achievements
Love the videos Rick you’ve helped me break 100, break 90 and now I’m on my way to breaking 85. MANY MANY THANKS 🙏
Amazing - keep up the great progress Christopher! Well done.
Love this video
Just shows how hard a hole in one actually is
And how much luck is required 😃
That is one HELL of a beautiful hole of golf!!!!
Been playing golf 8 months now started at 48 hcp (130) now at 23 shot 87 the other day these videos have helped me alot
That is tremendous progress in a short time. Well done!
The only thing I wanted more then Rick to hole one was a group to play through and drain one 🤣
Oh wouldn't that give you the sh*tz!
Got my first hole in one today, 125 yard 9 iron. Buzzing, considering I only started playing about a year and a bit ago! :)
Fake
Great acttitude! not easy to keep smiling after hitting 500 balls. Great frustration control. Congrats!!
I love the DP world tour 500 series. Glad to see you trying it
Ahhh man so close! I felt your pain towards the end! It is no fun swinging a golf club with blisters 😅
Been there, and agree... No fun at all 🤣
Great video Rick!
I've been playing for > 50 years and I've never had one 🤬. And I have a friend who rarely plays, maybe 2-3 rounds a year, who has one 😲
I've holed out for eagle from the fairway on Par 4's, multiple times. I have one double eagle, 205 yd 5-iron. I even have one birdie from 165, on a Par 4, where I had to chip out from the woods due to a pulled tee shot.
Absolutely one of my fav one of your vids Rick! Love it!
Huge respect for doing that! It takes will power and focus to do that… not just good weather golf. Thanks a lot, especially to the greenkeepers!
Man just scored a 93 today after scoring a 109 last week, just watched a lot of your videos. Thanks for everything Rick!
Well done! What would you say was the biggest change in your game to make that leap? Keep it up!
@@GolfQuestChannel i guess i just had to be more disciplined and better course management. Not hitting the ball to far with the driver but straight in the middle of the fairway
@@vrsus3010 straight is where it’s at ! Keep it up
I just played a 86 the other day and today a 75. My personal best game ever
@@GolfQuestChannel thanks!
This just shows that getting a hole in one has a huge element of luck even for the best players.
Awesome effort! As a golf enthusiast, I’ve never had a specific goal to get a hole in one nor have I had one. The goal is to score as low as I can and reach my maximum potential. That being said, I’d be happy to buy the drinks if one goes in! Keep up the inspiring work Rick! You’re amazing brother! Keep golf cool!
I love all the little bleeped curses and how Rick talks to the ball (and himself) in a semi-vulgar tone. So real. The language of golf! LOL 😄
*HOPE I HAVE A HOLE IN ONE ONCE IN MY LIFE!*
I hope to not 3 putt once in my life.
Dont worry, when the time is right, you will get it. There is a hole in one out there for everyone!
Me too . . . 😔
I don’t have any but there is a guy that works at my office that has two. He has the signed flags framed on the wall. Always thought it was cool.
First
Didn’t ask
Dominik Clark very cool!
Good to see you down at my course Rick. I used to joint-run the biggest charity golf day in Cheshire on that course, and we used to offer a BMW for a hole-in-one. Not gonna lie, it was never in danger. You should consider doing a similar video from the spectacular 15th on the Premier Course at Portal. Good content, appreciated!
I’m sure sir Rick Sheils is the only reason I come on RUclips man’s a true legend in every sense of the word 💙💙💙
I have never yelled so much during a you tube video. Awesome. Legendary
This is why I love your channel, because you do stuff like this! Keep up the great content. Again, you're the one golf personality I'd like to play a round with over any other, PGA, RUclips or otherwise.
GREAT job Rick, and I'm very proud of you sticking to it and giving your all. This does backup the statements from all the PRO's who get hole-in-ones, who say, "It takes some skill to hit a great shot, but to get a hole in one, takes alot of luck!"
Would be great to see some pro's tackle the same hole with, say 100 balls each.
Thanks for giving us positive influence & keeping us interested making golf enjoyable in our own situations.
That tee got a hammering. Very Understanding greens keepers. Well done to all.
Literally one of my most favorite video's of all Time, Cheers RICK!
The video and audio editing are spot on! Matching Rick's swing motion with the music beats.
Rick Hatton came out for a few hits....brilliant editing,your passion is real.
Unbelievably close on a few of those Rick! Amazing.
Rick, been following you for the past year and, I believe, your instruction has helped me greatly. Just picked up golf again after a 20 year absence. Last Friday, I shot my first hole in 1 and yesterday I broke 100 for the very first time! Many, many thanks and keep up the great work!
Really enjoyable video! So much fun. I was hoping one of them would go in! I've been working on my new set of hybrids with senior flex, trying to get the rhythm. You inspired me to get back into golf! Thanks Rick.
Great video Rick.
My back hurts just watching it and I think I developed a blister watching it too.
I love this video. I laughed out loud several times at Rick's self color commentary.
I hadn't played in probably 12 years, so I decided to watch a few videos to get back into it and get some new tips along the way. Rick, your videos are the best out there, no reason to even watch anyone else
One of my favorite videos EVER.. I was smiling and laughing the entire time. Please do another one after you are done recovering
Great attempt, Rick ... and you kept us in suspense all the way. Thumbs up to the Club and Green Staff for their helpful attitude to the challenge.
Love the music choice with the swing timing 👌
Best part of this video was Rick yelling “Fore”, gives us duffers hope even Rick struggles sometimes. Also would have been fun if he had one of the tour players with him…
Thanks for the work Rick, your videos super helpful to my game
Been playing golf since age 11 (now 70) and as a mostly single digit player I had 1 hole in one in thousands of rounds. I have a disabled daughter (non verbal) and the owners of a driving range with a nice little 6 hole par 3 practice course let me take my daughter with me in her jog stroller for practice sessions. The driving range.was directly across from the SF 49ers (American football) training facility in Santa Clara Ca. I used to see Jerry Rice there practicing all the time (met him and he was very nice to both me and my daughter, gave her a signed hat).
So, one day as usual playing by myself on a 120 yd hole I hit a little PW two bounces and in. I dropped the club hands in the air and looked at my daughter ... she was smiling but blissfully unaware of the significance of the moment. I just laughed to myself and thought that's golf. She got it right ...
Great video, first golf video that kept me suuuuuper in to it!!! Could not look away
One of my favourite videos Rick.
I love seeing Rick kick up a stink, never see him get frustrated. This man is human
hell of a try Rick! btw- just got my first a week ago thanks to your page ;)
I cannot imagine the exhaustion after 500 golf balls. Just hitting them all is an accomplishment. Well done Rick. Amazing grounds keeper to allow such a challenge
Your content is on another level. Hats off to you.
I've been golfing for 45 years ... just hit my first hole in one in July. It's quite a feeling!
‘Not with that beep shower of beep’ made me howl that never heard it from you Rick 😂 quality video!
My buddy recently started golfing so I introduced him to your videos. He's hooked now and getting better. From NY, keep up the great content! 👍🏻
This was one of your best videos ever, very entertaining, on the edge of my seat the entire time.
Good effort, Rick! Many excellent shots and your wedge game will have permanently improved
Rick "The Golf Metronome" Shiels. With Guy "The Orchestra Boss" Charnock, ladies and gentlemen.👏👏
Rick, you are awesome. And Guy, you are the best.
A bit of math to go with this: if the chance of getting a hole in one if 12500:1 for one try and we consider all attempts as independent, we can calculate the probability of having a hole in one after 500 attempts via: p(at least one hole-in-one) = 1 - (1 - 1/12500)^500 = 4%. If we assume that the chances improve a bit, since you "learn" due to playing just the same hole (no clue if this is a sensible assumption tbh, but it could be) and the average probability is something like 1:8000, we would get a probability of around 6% to have (at least one) hole-in-one after 500 attempts.
500 is 4% of 12,500. Simples.
Rick you need to do this at the job course for the island green.
The hurt and heartbreak would make an exceptional video
I kept chuckling at the swearing - he’s one of us 😂😂
The cuts on the music beats are great!
I loved the edit on this video! Such good work Rick
Great video and proves that any hole on one is a very special moment. Luckily to have one....so far.
“Just go in your home…don’t you wanna go home”. Definitely was sounding like Happy Gilmore there lol..especially with the cussing😂
Hi Rick would really like to see a full course vlog as it’s my home course 👍👍
rick has made me fall in love with golf.
Great video, loved the Gordon ramsay like bleeped out swearing came across raw and funny 🤣
Great video Rick! Okay, so you only have to do 24 more videos like this one....You can STILL beat the odds!!!!
My back and hands hurt just watching you hit 500 shots. Fun video - thanks.
Blood sweat and tears lol we appreciate the content Rick keep it up
