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.

Seems a level headed lad, hope we can look back on this in 10 years with a couple of tour wins under his belt. Frank isn't bad too.
lol
The fact that he is 3rd in the world tho I wonder who's in the lead 🤔
Very VERY impressive. Can’t wait to see him 5 years from now tearing up the PGA!
I see what u did there 😂
Angling for a job as Ricks' publicist eh? 👍👍😁😁😂😂
Really impressed with Frank's maturity and level headedness. Going to keep an eye on his development and hope to see him on the PGA tour.
Or the LIV
PGA is dead
There are loads of kids like Frank round the country believe me.
@@gerrypeacemaker9407 You are right. Benefits of proper coaching and good equipment are clear to see. Neighbours 9 year old grandson is playing well above his age group. Then again he comes from a line of very proficient golfers.
@@edclarkson638 There is a young lad who plays at my course, Braintree in Essex (A lovely course I’ll have you know) who won the English amateur championship in 2017 at the Berkshire golf club near Ascot. He has since turned pro and doesn’t stick out above the other young pros on tour.
It's strange...growing up playing competitive junior golf, the REALLY good guys off scratch or better were always pretty humble and nice and friendly. The real arseholes were the guys stuck at around 4 or 5 at 16 years old but wanted to be the next Tiger. Frank seems like a nice kid. I hope he does well.
Couldn’t agree more haha
and thats why those guys get stuck at 4 or 5 they lack the mindset and discipline to play professional golf.
@@userac-xpg very very true its a game of the mind more than body
That shows that golf really filters character well. It's pretty hard to be a bad person and be an amazing Tour level player. Not impossible of course, Patrick Reed being a prime example lol. But this is definitely a tendency I've noticed as well
Nicely put 😂👏🏻
These are so much fun to watch. It’s well shot, edited and narrated. It’s funny and informative and just the right a out of banter and quality bits of information on a playing mindset. Long time sub and so impressed to see this channel grow to this level of production and popularity. Kudos!
Next: Can I beat a man with no arms if I start 10 under par
😆
Guy with dysmelia kicking the ball with a club head glued to his foot: My time has come
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
And blind
+7 do you understand that?
I’ve played in a golf tournament with Frank before, he was -7 thru 8 holes and finished shooting a -7, 65. Absolutely amazed with how simple he made the game look… fairway, green, 1 putt on just about every hole.
i was there too 😂 not playing with y’all ofc
It’s been so long since I played in a golf tournament… ex wife took the wii
@@Mr.Helper. LMAO
@@Mr.Helper. damn
@@Mr.Helper. 🤣
Such a wise, thoughtful head on a young man’s shoulders. A real education to hear him to consider his shots, always thinking about the next shot to come.
I really like how you overlay the audio of the two of you chatting about the shots while playing the video for warming up / lining up the shot. It cuts down on dead/wasted time in the video and makes it flow really nicely
Look forward to seeing what choice Frank makes for his future. A calm head on those shoulders. Hope to see a lot of Frank on leaderboards
I would strongly suggest at least 2 years of college golf for Frank. Too many potential superstars ruined by a too early start into professional golf.
He's going to college
@@deepee1544 That's good to hear. A couple of years of tough college competition will serve him well if he has what it takes to make it in the PGA.
“The middle of my clubs are still brand new”
- Rick Shiels 2022
Wow, 16 and so advanced in what can be deemed one of the most difficult sports to play. What a different world we live in. Thank you Rick for including us to Frank, a young man with a brilliant future.
16:57 wait.. Is that a fox just casually looking at them teeing up!? haha
I've been a subscriber so long I remember the fox chasing Rick and Pete around one of night courses years ago and the quote by the fox made me spit my beverage out. Frank's maturity and sportsmanship at 16 is unparalleled. I wish him the best.
"The middle of my clubs are still brand new" 🤣🤣🤣Another golden quote. Kid has a great golf IQ. Playing like a pro already. Can't wait to see what he does in the future!
I don't know that I've seen you struggle with your mid irons that much. That was the most surprising thing. Your putting for the most part was better than it's been of late. It'll all come together Rick! It was fun like always to watch!
The putting from off the green is also still a huge issue though - not sure why Rick isn’t fixing that - 4th shot from off the green on hole one is surely never a putt, uphill massive slider - just chip it up there and take away loads of the break and at least get it close to the hole..
@@DonkasaurusNZ You haven't seen Rick chip that much, have you?...
what impressed me was he articulated really good thought processes throughout. Reinforced that while there is of course the whole physical aspect of shot production, golf is a thinking game
What I love about you doing these matches with top players of all ages is how much their mindset is so positive and attacking. Even when they have a bad shot they are already figuring next shot or even two out not dwelling on it. It's a real eye opener.
I dont like how he calls him self a pro starts at -10 and ends even pretty much
If hes a pro I wanna be on his tour
Golf is a mental game for sure. Staying level headed and not dwelling on a bad shot is a alot of the game.
@@jwickit3424 a professional is someone that makes money out of what they are doing, they dont need to be on tour, every golf course as a pro...
@@hugobellevillefournier1193 I bet my local course pro could do better than Rick😭😭
Rick is hands down the most likable golf pro with a RUclips I’ve ever seen. Rick doesn’t seem to like himself very much when he plays. That negative self talk is the only thing that seems to hold him back during these matches. Always rooting for your Rick! So enjoy your channel.
@@buddyboy6071 I’ve never picked up on an ounce of arrogance. He seems like a kind, self deprecating lad.
@@buddyboy6071 what arrogance?
@@wmcdougle I used to think the same until the podcast came out and Rick put the mask down. Incredibly arrogant about his subscriber numbers, talking down on his supposed friends,guys who had a massive impact on the growth of his channel, when asked about who could beat him on RUclips answering NO ONE, and being dead serious about it too,when he's had about 4 under par rounds in 10 years.Bitching on the podcast about "golf pros in the comments" when his subs are trying to help him,because you know, he's the only 12 handicap golfer entitled to give golf advice "HOW TO CHIP IT CLOSE EVERY TIME!!!"🤦♂️.I've seen delusional egotistical youtubers before, but Rick is up there with the biggest. You're entitled to your opinion tough, this is mine (and I'm ready to use it and face the angry groupies)
@@buddyboy6071 Agreed. I see no reason for the attitude. He appears to be the average 10-12 handicapper. You can find those all over the place.
I agree Will. I also think what is hurting him is his 100% draw swing. I have played that way for last 8-10 yrs and took lessons this yr to get away from it. While the draw will definately give you better distance, when it gets bad its super easy to over cook the draw and control shots and you can see it in ALL Ricks videos. I was doing the exact same things Rick is doing. Its actually crazy to watch as i feel im watching myself last yr. After just 5 rounds im seeing the fruits of a change, starting to pin seek quite a bit, much more fun. Now my missess bounce a couple yards forward instead of 20,30,40 yrs left.
I’m convinced you hit oob on 18 just to help franks confidence. What a true player you are
His demeanor change says so to me
Frank is a young stud. Seems humble and mature. If I had that skill at his age I'd be an absolute nightmare of a human 🤣. I wish him the best of luck. Hope he succeeds.
In high school, all the really stud athletes were the nicest guys. The chilliest guy on my football team was a 6'2' 210 pound line backer, captain, made all state 1st string.
It was the 3rd string quarterback, the scratch players that always ran their mouths and tried to be bullies.
Frank has an incredible golf brain at such a young age, to go with his phenomenal technique. An inspiration and well under half my age!
Like Tiger says: Every shot is the most important shot that you’re going to make. I always struggle with that but it’s what separates him from everyone else. Keep doing what you do, you’re what keeps me going! Thanks again.
Hahaha tiger said a lot until he was taking to many shot in the bar 😂
Comment of the match....
"Was that out of the middle?"
"Course it wasn't out of the middle, i haven't hit any out of the middle!"
😂😂😂
RS "Middle of my clubs are like brand new" 🤣🤣🤣 Classic!!!
Could happily watch frank do his own videos, explains his game very well and seems like a great young player with a good attitude. Loved this one Rick 👍🏻
Frank is such an amazing player. Also, the maturity he has for a 16 years old boy is really impressive. He is destined for greatness in golf!!! Already doing very great for himself. Thanks for the discovery Rick!
NEXT episode of BREAK75 is St Andrews, Old course 😉 we needed some extra time to put together such a incredible video!
However in the meantime I think you’ll really enjoy this video with SUPERSTAR Frank Kennedy
Take all the time you need putting together those Break 75 videos. They are excellent and have made me pick up the golf bag and get out and play.
I've recently restarted my game after about a 10 year hiatus. Not really ideal, since I'm getting older now (37), short and chunky at 5'9" 95kg, and have the flexibility of a redwood tree. But thanks to a supportive wife, and your awesome videos, I keep plugging at it at the range and my friend's home simulator (along with the obligatory whiskies after) every weekend, just because it's fun. Good on you Rick, might consider coming to the Philippines one day? We have beautiful courses here.
Spend a little less time in the Jigger Inn and a little more time on the range…… then I’m sure you’ll smash 75 👍
Savage! 😳
Great content as always, I’m at the point of waiting for your next videos now!
Love how frank talked about his shot before he hit it, hopefully he will bring home the claret jug in years to come
It’s scary how good both of you are. What a fun day on the course
When it came down to the 18th hole, i was ready to wager on Rick making at least a double bogey and young Frank a birdie. Rick is a gentlemen for making this happen the way it did. Good luck and much success to Frank Kennedy. I hope he goes to college and gets to compete against the best they have so he can elevate his game to where he has to be to win on tour.
What about the fox just relaxing watching the tee shots?! Great video
Again. Thank you. Seeing you play and the doubles and trips makes me feel better. I can't get off these mid 90s rounds after my first year. You make me realize I will progress and....golf is hard, so don't stress too much. It will happen.
It definitely is. I started taking it seriously last year. Best round was an 85. This year I am topping my drives and playing well otherwise. It's frustrating but it is a process! just keep at it!
Well done Rick! This was a very interesting and enjoyable video to watch, and you handled everything with such humility and class. You were a wonderful host to a young golfer, and the way you handled yourself especially down the stretch I believe will help boost his confidence for the future.
I love going back and watching these vids because i pick up on something new every time that helps me in some way whether it be positioning or analyzing differently. So close to breaking 80 thanks to these videos showing commentary from casual play. Love it.
Bloody brilliant and so fun to watch. It's incredible to watch how smooth Frank is and the way he analyzed every approach was cool to see. I always just get the distance and hit. Seeing the major differences on how ppl with quality approach the challenge vs my amateur joke-show is great.
Also, love how humble this game makes you. Good stuff, Shielsy
How great does Frank's swing look? I wish I could get 80% of that smoothness.
@@GolfQuestChannel i could swing it that smooth but my club head speed would be about 19mph 😂
One thing that strikes me about younger guys playing at the level of Frank is the humility. For so many other sports, players that are that good that young can have such an arrogance about them, but golf is such a punishing game no matter how good you are that it's very very rare to find someone with that arrogance.
So right!!!!
Totally agree with that, nice to see!!
Golf has humbled all but a handful of people in history
I think he's more arrogant than you think
@@jamescarmichael8969 there is a difference between confidence and arrogance. never once on his mistakes is he blaming anything but himself.
I played at IMG Academy in Florida after high school and then played top level mini tours for 5 years trying to make it. I was a +6 or so at 18. I tell people all the time if you can't step up and shoot 63 on any given day it's not gonna work. For example, I made got through local US Open qualifying in a playoff after shooting 66. I then shot 66-67 in Sectionals and missed qualifying by 4 shots. -11 over two rounds at a hard golf course and wasn't even close. I wish you well Frank and NEVER fear a score.
Wow that is insane 😮
rubbish,saying minus 11 after two rounds isnt good enough.Not even tour pros shoot that all the time.
Kennedy was quite honest in talking about his game. Youth brings the concept of chasing the score. Patience is a learned experiential commodity many nonpro golfers deal with in a negative fashion. We worry about speed, power, and how far can I hit my driver. Play the course, chase the course, not the score. Smart kid, down to earth. Very interested in watching his future.
Just want to say thank you Rick. After a crap year and watching your channel I played my first round of golf in 10 years yesterday. Didn't record a score on the majority of holes to be completely honest but managed a birdie on a par 3. Was absolutely buzzing. Keep up the content pal 💪
Keep going mate and you will keep improving. although the game is fustrating…
Respect
"Can't even lay up." Story of my life, Rick, story of my life!
Rick needs to aim at the pin more often
Loved Frank's comment about not going all out for speed and distance if the outcome is a more difficult lie in the rough and how a short iron from the fairway is preferable to the wedge from the rough being harder to control.
Love these 10 under challenges! Keep them coming 🙌.
Love ya Rick, I know mentally it’s been a grind recently but you’ve been an inspiration to me and have helped my golf game tremendously. Keep up the good work.
Frank seems like such a great kid. And WHAT A PLAYER! Excited to see how his career progresses 💪🏻
Love the on course comments form Rick and Frank...great guys both!
I like hearing is thought process as he approaches each shot. That helps me learn
been watching rick for almost 2 years honestly can say he's extremely consistent and has got me back into golf . thanks rick quality content mate
Not sure how much more of this I can take! Making me feel better about my game but so painful to watch.
@Cock McBalls
It’s a hard fucking game.
@Cock McBalls so weird reading this well thought out comment when your name is Cock McBalls
Love these..its 2.48am and I've just finished watching..come on Rick ye gotta win man ! Frank is defo a star of the future..awesome 👌
The walking/talking scene is great, I love these videos. Pure class Rick holding your clubs, we noticed lol
frank is so good can't wait to so him on tour. Keep up the good work :)
Absolutely. Who wouldn't want the swing he has already? Gorgeous.
Its challenges like this that make me think is Rick really a pro? 😂 Love these videos!
Quit competition golf but probably still scratch
@@bigjohny8446 I mean he shot +12, probably not scratch
@@bigjohny8446 Yeah probably. I still play close to scratch and feel like I’d be playing like Rick does 😅 Would love to see a challenge, an even match up, Rick vs a scratch golfer, maybe something around the world kinda thing.
@@bigjohny8446 he’s at best a 4hcp with the odd 2-3 shots better than hcp every so often. Stolen a living.
@@GreenTreesAndFlowers hes better than that.. Hell of a lot of scratch and plus players shoot those scores occasionally
25:00 "Very nice golf shot from Frank, I finished here after thinning it into the tree" hilarious
What a nice, polite, talented young man. This was fun.
What an attitude frank has for a 16 Yr old. On top of unbelievable talent. Great video rick
Just got into golf a month ago and found your channel. Love the videos, I am hooked to get better now haha
My mates say that golf club shafts go dead after a few years and you lose distance but I’m not too sure. Could you do a comparison of well used clubs and brand new ones to see if there is any loss of distance and performance.
I’ll say it again Rick…..you would do well to work on a smoother transition….more consistent control of impact….your still the most entertaining channel on you tube…..thx.
Wow, Frank is some player already. Can't believe how quick he whips his hips through!!!
The flexibility and power is something else. Can't be like that forever unfortunately.
I won’t lie watching Rick stress out on the first couple holes was so entertaining. Ik the exact feeling
he never makes par on the first hole in any of these challenges.
@@userac-xpg yeah he hasn’t been playing to well lately but still entertaining at least
16:49
"Oh, why u hit egg m8?..Egg r for eating!"
I love this kid! Hearing how he talks about his game and his thinking is fantastic, yet he seems to appear to be having fun with the game.
16 going on 26 - what a emotional wreck of a golfer I was at 16... Frank is so composed!
I was still an emotional wreck of a human at 26....
More of a wreck at 36 than ever was at 26 or 16
The amount of lip outs Frank had was unreal, easily could have been 5/6 under. Crazy! Different level
16 years old thats unbelievable, i'm sure when we are watching him on the tour we will think back to when Rick made him the man that he will become.....
@RickshielsgolfPGA_ STOP THE BULLSHIT, WE ALL KNOW YOU ARE NOT RICK. GO GET A LIFE.
Channels like these are why RUclips exists. Rick has a great personality and is able to bring out the love of the game. I'm following his putts and let out an "ahh" when he misses. That's an example of how he draws you into the game. Good job, Rick.
Awesome video, as usual. Rick's game is all over the place at the minute though. I genuinely think that me, and my 7 handicap, could currently give him a good match. Actually, saying that, probably not: I'd fold under the pressure of the cameras and the 5 people watching me. Chin up though, Rick, I'm sure you'll find your best stuff again soon.
Ricks got a decent amount of talent. And technically is actually pretty good. Not sure what’s going on this year (he was playing much better last year and looked a proper golfer) imagine he was playing Pete as much as he did back in the day, he would get slaughtered. I’m a 1 handicapper at my club and I would play Rick for any amount of money at this current moment.
@@kyelritcherd8491 We all go through ups and downs, it's the nature of the sport, but Rick's down is pretty severe at the minute. He's clearly overthinking it and seems to have lost all confidence from 100 yards and in. He needs to get out of his head and just start enjoying it again. Because, as you said, it doesn't look like a big technical issue. He'll be back.
@@Hittingitstiff he's a RUclipsr not a pro LMHO
@@balance3201 I know he now makes RUclips videos but Rick used to be a qualified Pro.
@@Hittingitstiff "qualified teaching pro" Is a big difference to being a playing pro
Another absolute choke job by Rick
Absolutely loving these course vlogs!
“He comes off with a par and says not the start we wanted” haha
RICK! I KEEP SHARING MY PROGRESS BUT I AM NOW SHOOTING CONSTANT 102-106! YOUR VIDS HAVE HELPED DRASTICALLY! I have only been golfing for 5 months now! i will get below 100 by the end of this month for sure! you are awesome!
Keep grinding.
@@jeffcobb8151 what does this mean the grinder
Some advices. Play in straight lines
@@TBat0431 lmaoo
@Who Cares Rick Is a pro. He’ll help get scores down
What an outstanding young man. I really hope to see him tearing it up on tour some day.
Give Rick props for posting this golf when he was definately struggling....
Ive never watched any channel with as many adds. Completely takes from the enjoyment of the video
A +7 hcp opening with such a hideous snap-hook somehows warms my heart. no one has ever mastered this game, there are just some that suck less than others. 😂 jokes aside, he is 16 and his swing is pure violence, it really tingles to just watch it on tv
I'm not trying to belittle him nor judge him just based off of this, the kid is unbelievable especially for a 16 year old but I question the validity of his plus 7 handicap. I mean I'm sure based off the system that is what he comes in at but the system isn't perfect. Like the last time Tiger had a registered handicap he was at plus 8 and that was the same time he was lapping the field at the 97 Masters. It's hard for me to believe that he was only 1 shot better than this kid right now.
Very well put Captain Nemo.
@@mattthomas1442 Dude, 1997 was before the prov1 had been released and people were playing tiny driver heads, technology has come a long way since then.
He’s oozing with talent. The ball flight on that hybrid off the tee was ridiculous.
Frank is certainly one to watch in the future. Rick, I am 68 years old with HI of 10.7 so if you need any lessons just give me a call.
Such a beautiful golf course. Nothing beats the crack of a good hit. Best of luck for your future young man
Really enjoyed watching that. Going to be fun to see his journey when he goes pro. Amazing talent
Perfect timing for an upload!
Thanks, Rick!
Is it just me or does the video quality in this episode just look far superior than the rest
Mega kudos to your camera/ production crew. The shot at the 2nd hole was so cinematic.
Come on Rick, you have the game to compete on these challenges, just time to put it together. Love the video.
Come on Rick is what I hear him say to himself when he is in trouble and seems to make him dive deeper.
By the way Rick, just something I noticed was that a lot of the times when the 'Score Thru' is reported it says 'Score Thru 12'
Otherwise, great episode as always, super fun to watch!
Drove
me crazy
Great one Rick. Thank you for demonstrating patience and grace in your videos, it’s a genuine gift in your teaching of the game.
You are a joy Rick, what a big hearted guy you are! It was a real pleasure to watch this lad play. I wish I had started as a kid instead if starting at 68! Still worth it though!
the 3 putt after eagle try was just heartbreaking
Rick makes me feel better about my short game. Thankyou 😅
Putting especially
Sadly enough, I would still take Rick's short game over mine lol.
The camera at 17:11 coming out of the Woods XDDDDD that is some great editing XD i dont even know how thats done XDDD
I think we need to take the negative thoughts out of your mind and then I think your game will improve. Your a cracking golfer and have taught me a lot other the years. Keep training and keep with the positive vibes.
100% this.
I love these videos so much. I normally don't finish 3 minute videos on YT, but with these videos I enjoy every second of them!
Well said. Quality stuff.
Left my man Rick hangin on the high five at the end 😂
Your thought of videos and quality of your videos seem to be getting better and better everytime I watch. And what a top quality player Frank is aswell.👌 Keep up the good work Rick.
This video was teased on the podcast. So excited to finally see it!
This kid is really incredible. We’ll be seeing a lot of him in the near future. What a great video! Thanks Rick!
This would be 100% better if Shiels would stop the continuous rabbiting.
Happened on this 2 year old video & I’m impressed with young Frank. I see that he has now turned pro.
I heard Frank say that his clubhead speed is 118/119 mph.
I have a 14 1/2 year-old grandson that stands 5’11 and 155 pounds. This week he starts his freshman year in high school where he plays basketball, football, baseball and unfortunately only a little bit of golf.
He routinely bombs 300+ yard drives and he hits an 8 iron 180 yards. Our club pro says that his club head speed is unbelievable.
Our club has a Bushnell Foresight simulator and his club head speed is anywhere from 114 mph to 121 mph.
The sad part of the story is that he doesn’t play enough golf to shoot in the 70s. He plays to a 12 handicap because he hasn’t learned how to stay away from big numbers.
If he decides that he really wants it, I’ll be there to help him because even though I’m approaching 70 and can’t hit the ball out of my shadow compared to my younger days where I used to be a scratch golfer, I do still remember how to score and that’s a big part of the game.
The good news is, God gave him a gift and maybe at some point he’ll decide that he won’t be a professional baseball, basketball or football player and that he has a better future in golf. 😀
Next: can I beat par if I start 10 under par.
This young man’s swing reminds me of a young Mcillroy. Can’t wait to see him play more in the future.
Was gonna say this as well he's got a beautiful swing
Absolutely a golfer ahead of his time. Can work the ball both ways and REALLY has his wedges dialed in. Putts lights out!! And that Frank Kennedy isn't too bad either....
Thank you Rick for yet another piece of great content.
