Hi I’m Rick Shiels, welcome to my channel! This RUclips channel is designed to help you play better golf, also to help you enjoy your golf more!
I specialise in golf equipment reviews, golf instruction & I play against some of the best golfers in the world!
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!
I can’t begin to tell you how much positive difference you have made in my golf game. I have been a subscriber of yours for years and always enjoy your videos. I am currently 76 and in 2020 I had a stroke that mildly affected my left side. I was still able to play but not as well as before the stroke. Prior to the stroke I was a 18 handicap and after more of a 24 to 26. I was still having fun, then in 2021 I started having left knee pain which resulted in a complete knee replacement in march of this year. I was not able to play prior to the replacement for almost 2 years and when I was able to start hitting on the range the feeling was as if I had never swung a golf club before. My timing was gone. But after watching a few of your videos something clicked and I started making contact again. Now after almost 50 years of playing golf I am starting over with lessons from my local course pro. I don’t expect to join the tour anytime soon but now I feel positive about playing again. Thank you. Next time you come to Arizona I hope to get to see you in person.
Good luck glad to see your still enjoying this infuriating game
God bless you
As a bigger guy I been really trying to find my swing. It truly does help with you say it should FEEL like vs it should LOOK like. Hard for my swing to look like an average sized person. But I can understand how things feel and how they should feel and work with that within my swing
This is your best golf swing instruction you’ve ever filmed! Simple, and with visual aids. Love it bro!
Never gave much thought to how firm my grip is. I have been trying to strangle it. Went to the driving range at Bandon Dunes yesterday and held 50%. Night and day difference in consistency and accuracy. Thank you!
I just had my first lesson from a club pro and these exact things are what he showed me, almost exactly as you explained it.
He probably watches Rick Shiels, lol
Only difference u have to pay for it. 😂
your complete swing guides are the best swing videos ive ever watched. to this day i still go back a watch them.
I absolutely love these simple videos they help so much
Solid step by step tips. I'm improving a lot now... the slight modification I use to help my upper-body weight transfer to the left side is having one swing thought of locking my left shoulder in place (kinda like a post up) and staying conscious of not leaving or pushing off my right (trail) foot. Boom 💥
This will help me explain better to my daughter, who is just startin 6:10 g to take up the game. Thanks Rick for the explanations and tips!👍
it's a good thing to refresh the basics in the beginning of the season.
Who else at top golf rn
on the waitlist right now 😭
😅
What a fantastic teacher! I’ve improved my game with just one day of watching your videos!
Bout to be my first time playing tomorrow been practicing this 🤞🏼
How'd it go?!
Thank you! This is the best instruction of golf swing I have ever watched! I am going to practice more and more!❤
Sold! Thanks man, def super helpful to have the visuals and explanation.
You have help me so much I went from 100+ to high 80s low 90s from your videos keep it up
This video shows everything in slow motion which makes the swing look tight and tense. Id love to see a video on how to keep loose and gain momentum.
Rick, the indoor golf simulator/film studio is outstanding.
Thanks for the refresher Rick!
I just tuck my right elbow and bicep in and leaved it super glued to my body. Fixes everything
I did this but I would take it to inside and I had uncontrollable draws/hook. I’ve been working recently to take it straight back but it’s so hard
Just finished my first ever golf lesson today. The instructor asked me if I watched RUclips videos for guidance, "You know Rick Shiels?" I asked. She chuckled and said yes. Thanks for these videos, Rick. Between you and her, my swing is significantly improved!
Bro I’m bouta quit
😂😂😂😂😂
Don’t do it bro
Cold spell? Lol
😂 I’ve been here, trying to get back into it 🤦🏽♂️
Bro, we all are. But the one great shot per round keeps me coming back. Lol
Thanks for the reminder Rick
I feel like a right div. Went on range for first time today. I’m a right hand and I was putting my left hand in the front and right hand at the back. Of course that was going to be counter productive
Watching this at top golf
who else playing golf rn?!
Thanks now i can go on my Top Golf date
Should definitely feel hips clearing sensation over shoulder turning. Need that separation
Thank you headed to practice right now
Thanks Rick, what about the stance for different irons and drivers
Excellent as always!
No matter Rich help any one or not .But he do one of the best golf content in UK🇬🇧 Well done mete 🤝
Awesome thanks but Im still confused what the arms and wrists are doing in the downswing 🤔
I wish there was a video about the principles of a golf swing. In my experience, it seems like these things are more like "positive symptoms" that you see in your golf swing if you follow certain principles. So these forms are not consciously emulated, theyre just the natural result of swinging instinctually with an understanding of the final goal of a golf swing. Those would be solid contact, club face square on impact, etc. And dont forget jim furyk, matt wolff, and scottie schefler whose swings are unorthodox but they get the job done because they ultimately reach the same final result of solid contact with a square clubface. Another principle of a golf swing is to know where your center of balance should be throughout the swing. If you jnderstand that, then you just get the job done however your body can get it done.
Great video, just wish there was some inclusion on what to do with the wrists on backswing and downswing. That was the biggest sticking point for me!
Can you show this for a left handed player
Can't wait for Rick's Break 200 Series. Thanks
*WE WANT MORE BREAK 75 SERIES PLEASE RICK!* ⛳
Now might just be my experience, but I feel like a lot of people complain every time he makes a break 75.
Never expected to sew a Deeprot comment here lol
I enjoy Break 75 quite a bit, mostly due to the drone shots and locations I’d never get to play.
I’d be interested in what you thoughts were of the STOW STICK golf accessory…. It sure has made a difference in my putting movements…. “Thank You” for your for your well explained video..
I have one question that might honestly help my consistency. Am I swinging down into the ball and the ground or am I swinging up into the ball? Hope that made sense. Help!!!!
From what I understand you want to hit the club on the ground slightly ahead of the ball so you're swinging down
Are there different styles of swing for the different clubs, like Iron vs Wedge vs Driver?
Hey Rick! For a brand new golfer, what are the couple of clubs you recommend they should focus on practicing with first at the range?
Honestly just pay attention to your yardage with club. Then you start to realize you use the same clubs repeatedly and some clubs not so much. Focus on the main clubs and have fun! My main clubs D ,6 iron, 8 iron, 56°, putter
Rick, I am curious what you think of stack and tilt?
You should set the shaft lean first then take grip. If you want to start at basics
My wife is learning to play golf, I am going to send her this video. This is GREAT for the beginner golfer!
This video is also good for a pre season review for us “veteran” golfers.
@@joevladovich2075 Yes! Always have to maintain fundamentals. Whenever I get a hitch in my swing, I go back to the basics.
Rick I've been a fan and subscriber since your daughter Ivy was born and love your journey, content and passion.
My son, a golfer with a 4 handicap, and a passion for golfs comes from a long line of golfers. His grandfather was an armature who played Pro Am Tournaments with friends PGA Pro
Doug Ford (PGA Championship & Masters Championship) and Jerry Barber (PGA Championship) and his uncle, Tom Sullivan Played on the Nike Tour in the day... I never got the golf bug
so, I'm a real hackier but enjoy a day out with my son.
My son, Ian just graduated from college with a business degree and just got his first fulltime job with PING America (Arizona) building clubs. He is a Mizuno Iron guy but now that's he's
building PING Clubs and testing clubs he is in love with the Blueprint S Irons. He wanted to start at the bottom with PING in manufacturing so he will know the product so he can sell the
product and is loving what he is seeing from the manufacturing level. As they (PING) guide his progress, He will move into customer service then PINGS fitting department, learning each
department at PING. As Ian says he has to learn everything about PING Products to promote/sell PING Products.
When my son Ian was 8 years of age, he first golf instructor was a European Pro sponsored by PING & personal friend of Karsten Solheim (PING Founder) In Phoenix Arizona. At the age
of 16, Ian got his first custom fitting for new clubs at PING Phoenix, and now he's working for PING. Talk about full circle.
He swears by the new PING Blueprint S Irons and he's scores seem to prove his commitment to them.
Big Smile😊
Rick, great videos mate. The simplicity of your instruction just makes sense to a simpleton like myself. Everybody dogging you about taking your own advice is comical. Hopefully you laugh as well. Most couldn’t shoot under 100 on courses and conditions you play all while doing it on film! It kills me that the haters think you Need to be a major winner to give instruction without ridicule. Thanks so much for the tips!!
The left leg ankle, is it safe to have an end position like that ?
YES MAROOCH!
Can you do this same thing for putting?
watching this so i can beat my friends at topgolf 😭
Lmaooo
Excellent job Rick on explaining "the swing basics!" Always good to have reminders presented to us! Well Done!
Allways good to remember the basics. Stops me becoming complacent. Thankyou Rick. 👏👏
Me playing golf rn
One thing I would add in here; it’s not enough to make sure that the club face is facing the target. Once you swing the club, hold the club out straight in front of you and see where the club is facing and make sure it’s square. I lined up to the ball square but during my swing I was closing my club face and everything went left. Now all I do is open the club face so that it is facing more right, didn’t change a thing about my swing and now at impact the face is square with the target and I am a lot more consistent
Yep…. Just do all of those things and it’s simple and easy 😬
Great Rick I have always played with a half swing 15/18 hc and play in club matches. After this I am confident to try a 3/4 swing and starting this at 70 I must be mad thanks again trebor.
Solid video Rick! Really good advices, as always.
Your videos are excellent! Really great info in all of them. Keep it up 👍
I have a slice problem, which makes me want to grip the club tight to keep my club face closed….im going to try loosening it up
Best little lesson
Overlap grip = Harmon grip
Great advice, but my problem is, I either hit the ground or go right over top... I can't seem to keep it in the right place while swinging
Nice basics video. But it is missing the most important part: how to move the hands, wrists and arms? May I suggest a follow-up video?
A good video. But now, how about one on timing and tempo; i.e., how to smoothly stitch all those moves together?
Hey Rick!
Any chance you would be able to go over Arccos or Blast Golf, and their benefits and drawbacks?
Finally some lessons…it’s why I subscribe
That set is from the golf upside down.
Aha! The slow mo shows I'm twisting my hips way too much before hitting the ball. Slicing like hell when i try and break the ball in half
Nice love the content❤
I know he is a righty, but as as left handed player, I wish in his videos he would use different terms, like lead leg, front leg, etc. Just makes comprehension easier for the Southpaw golfer.
Where in the UK is “Sheils froom?” Livapool? 🤔
Hi Rick, Guy, Matt and Team,
Love all the channels, listened to all the podcast episodes more that 7 times over and your merchandise is great quality. I have started a golf youtube channel to try and help afford new clubs because the shaft flex doesn't fit me anymore. Haven't posted any content yet. Do you have any advice on getting started on youtube.
Keep up the great content
SKIP THE STONE MAROOCH
Very nice
Wish it was this simple …..
Rick, Golfsidekick is making fun of you can’t break 80.
Would like to see a match up.
Really? Which video? Lol. I didn't see him making fun, but I don't disagree if he did. Golf Sidekick has wayyyy better course management, and if Rick played smarter like him, guarantee he'd shoot better scores. Rick constantly goes for longer clubs and it gets him in trouble all the time. He never learns 😂
Golf Sidekick is the man. As a 15 handicap, I was able to shoot an 82 one day. Which is unheard of. But that's the power of course management. All thanks to GS! 😊
@@fohrum4757 They are both great channels, I do agree sometimes Rick has some... questionable... course management decisions. I will say that a lot of GS suggestions are designed for mid- to high-handicappers and are great for folks trying to break 100 for the first time, trying to break 90, trying to break 85, et cetera. Rick is a low handicapper and naturally feels able to "go for it" in situations where a mid- to high-handicapper shouldn't. And, to get in before all the "LOL Rick's like a 10 HCP" comments, I just saw Rick shoot a -3 for 9 holes on Seb's channel, that could have been a -5 if a couple more 8-10 foot birdie putts had dropped. HCP is based off of the best 8 rounds out of your last 20... a 2 HCP will still shoot rounds of 79 or 81, but they have the ABILITY to shoot 70 or 73 as well.
Rick's mental approach and course management DO need work, and I'm sure he is aware of that. His videos don't always come out in chronological order, but I have seen more videos lately where he is more positive overall and doesn't destroy himself for the occasional loose shot.
I will find it
ruclips.net/video/rnXWP2Dq_zM/видео.htmlsi=5XSKqEDF72hQgHhm
It starts about the 10 minute mark . More like a funny remark for breaking 80 before RS does.
But you have to give it to the guy, he is a master motivator,
My game has improved so much just with course management.
Would love to see Sidekick and Rick have a fun round .
@@pedroc6823 Lol. Okay that's funny because I'm pretty sure I stopped the video around 8 minutes in last night. If only I kept watching 😂.
Update: That was a good chirp at Rick haha
I would love to see this with a driver. Is there much difference to you?
this is discrimination against left handers
I can't throw either
👍
A key thing this video ( like many swing videos ) is missing seems to be holding the wrist angle throughout impact. I see many suffering this as its never really picked up but it plays such a huge part for good impact.
Rick next time you are in Texas you should come to Houston
After seeing that throw, Rick; we’re glad you’re doing golf tutorials and not baseball drills. 😂😅
I cant swing properly, rotate my hips or strike the ball clean. Ive tried close to 50 times and i cant do any of it
You can't beat the 'basics' 90% of RUclips instruction video is designed to bamboozle you into subscription lessons.
I use an interlock too, because I grew up watching Jack play. It's the same reason I putt with my glove on 😄
When you test Krank Driver Bryson Dechambeau driver
Rick! Review Ping i530s, play 9holes and use the trackman/gcquad
Most amateurs just imagine the wrong intention, when trying to play golf. They either hit AT the ball, which makes you stall out the body, and basically throw the club head AT the ball. This also makes you too steep. Or… They try to hit the ball UP into the air. This makes you lean back on your trail foot, and never shift pressure to your lead side. It also moves the low point behind the ball, resulting in fats, and thins(catching it with the bottom of the club, as it’s going back up). The cure is…. imagine that you’re trying to hit the ball FORWARD. This is when you’ll start to apply “real” pressure into the back of the ball. The compression feels amazing! Give it a try….. Another good feel is to imagine that you’re trying to sling the club underhanded through a piece of drywall, about 10 feet in front of you. Your weight will naturally shift. You will naturally rotate in the correct sequence. And, you’ll naturally release the club later than you probably are at the moment. These 2 things changed my game forever. Good luck! 🍀
You know….sometimes the most fundamental, simplest instructions are those that are easily repeatable. Thank you for reminding me this doesn’t have to be complex.
I started golf during the pandemic. I watched a few videos of yours and GM golf to copy some swings. Ive never had a golf lesson but got to a 8 haddicap. The last yr I had lower spinal fusion and right knee microfracture surgery. I cant hit anything. I’m 40, Ive gone to the range about 5xs and I cannot hit 1 ball like I used to. 3xs I just left the range with tons of balls still to hit. I top 90% of my irons or Driver and the rest is a low huge hook, I actually miss the ball, or a huge beaver tail. Im soo embarassed. Its like thier is no connection between my mind and body/swing anymore. 😮 Im afraid that my golfing days are over as well as being able to enjoy other hobbys/sports Ive loved. I grew up to Tiger and one of the few that loved to just watch and didnt play. I just wish I could play golf again and be pain free. Now Im stuck with Mizuno irons, Sim Max driver , Vokey wedges, Vice Pro Plus balls, and cant hit anything. Seeing you break 75 series is only thing that keeps me from just selling it all and call it a day.
Rick we need a gt driver review asap!!!!
Rick I want to see you review the SF1 driver
What's your handicap now cause it isn't what it was when you became a pga pro or coach
Anybody else just feel like an alien wearing human skin when trying to swing? I swear nothing feels right 😂
It went out of bounds
How tf do I hit it straght
How tf to I hit it long
I personally think there shoild be more opportunities to win some money.
