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.
Would love to see these clubs go into the HIT studio and see how they stack up with their current counterparts by the numbers.
Probably not much difference,most new clubs are mainly marketing blurb saying how much better they are .
@@Hatori64you’re just wrong mate
That’s a great idea 👍🏼👍🏼
@@sturoe7361yeah, I don’t think there’d be much difference, and the sample size/consistency is too low for quality.
I’d like to update my pecking order from a few years ago…. Matt Fryer is #1, by a significant margin these days. Peter Finch barely captures the #2 spot, in front of #3 Andy Carter. And Rick…. I’m sorry, but you’re #4 by quit a bit at the present time. Don’t feel too bad though mate. My consistency is crap these days, too. I’ve shot everywhere from 65 to 85 in the past year. Golf is hard! Haha
Rick, low on confidence, struggling with his game. Also Rick, "here are my 10 year old Mizuno blades" 😂 I respect it. Another great Break 75!
I am astounded that the man never understands his shot shape. He almost always hits a pull - not a draw a pull, but he almost never allows for it . Definition of insanity on the golf course,
@@chrisdownes2146 yeh I really don't understand why he tries to fade it sometimes, especially with driver.
There were so many high tech irons in 2013. Would have been nice to see him play anything more forgiving.
@@chrisdownes2146 I don't see the pull you mention. Any example in this video? Ball flight with the tracer just looks like a big draw, pretty consistently.
It was + 7, not + 12 as reported at the end (34:49); overall, very good back 9 (plus 1) - and the first 9 (plus 6 over par), with 'new' clubs and a lot of wind, that was not easy. I am under the impression that Rick is selling himself a bit too short. Please be more positive and keep being an inspiration for us :-)
You're right!! Good catch!
Agreed with the sentiments regarding Rick’s mental state. Also, I have seen the score at the end being incorrect numerous times on this channel. Think whoever is counting might be bad at maths!
Is ricks handicap +5?
So very true like a lot of golfers we are hard on ourselves. What I was surprised with and given the windy conditions he did not try sending low shots into the green. Low chips etc, once in the air the ball is exposed to the strong wind.
A 75 on that course in that wind would have been a super round given it’s not a regular course he plays
sack the scorer@@Zoso37123
I love that 10 year old golf clubs is used as a challenge when that’s just my normal bag 😅
YA, I want to give him my 20 year old clubs. I'll trade him for the 10 year old ones
I was just thing the same!
Found my clubs in the garbage 10 years ago. Subsequently also where I found my game
Exactly
Lol I'm using G10s 16 years n counting 😂
Rick is like a golf buddy of mine. He’s annoyed with his game because he’s not meeting his expectations and yet I wish I could shoot as good as him on one of his bad days 😂
Arnold Palmer said bogey is a good score and par is a perfect score. Few golfer's are perfect all the time ( pros). Enjoy the time on course, it's priceless. Cheer's
Rick thinks he’s than he is. In reality hes a 5 - 8 handicapper.
@@FelixGallardo1946I play with a guy that plays off 7 and I would say my mate seems more solid all round. Ie he never blades or skulls it or snap hooks it.
Really like that fact that Rick admitted his game is not the best at the moment. So he decides to film a video with 10 year old clubs, in high winds on a difficult course and is probably still doing better than most at the course. Love the content and your perseverance.
This is what people don't take into account when they say "Rick sucks now"
I was just thinking that. He’s been moaning about his golf game but he’s regularly breaking 80. Break 75 wouldn’t be a series if he was breaking 75 every time lol
The fact that I cannot understand is that Rick plays 18 holes like me, but ends up with 79 and I end up with 95.
@@jooger69he’ll be sinking a lot more putts I’d imagine and his GIR would be higher
This course looks to be really difficult during windy conditions. I remember playing a course next to the beach, with 20 MPH gusts and your ball would land 10-15 short, and your drives would get nowhere. Rick even breaking 80 is pretty good already.
Yes, I've missed these funny edits! Great job to the team and to you Rick, for creating top notch golf content.
Shoutouts to the wood choice. That's the one currently in my bag!
Also these would be great in the HIT studio. Reviewing old clubs would be a great addition to the channel.
The always over exaggerated head tilt so sand or dirt doesn't come back and hit his face always gets me 😆
Would love to see Rick try to break 75 with a full bag of game improvement club's
100% this. Not even super game improvement just something with some help for him.
he hit those Titleist Clubs well on the other channel! Throw em in the bag RS
Agreed. He needs to go get a fitting for some because currently he has absolutely lost the plot...
I just got fitted and purchased some stealth HDs after years of blades…shooting 70s had never been more consistent !
Problem is Rick is all about looks, he'd play so much better without blades
The lads have done you a disservice in the graphic at the end +12 😂
Editing on this video was superb. That cut to Captain Hindsight and Michael on the ipad was hilarious 😂
This is another proof of what you and Guy talked about in the latest podcast: you don‘t need to shoot your best score to give us good entertainment. Not quite sure if the memes are self-ironic or a bit of banter from the edit team, but it‘s absolutly hilarious! 😂
As an American. It’s hard for me to believe that it looks that windy and cold there in the middle of summer. However, it looks absolutely gorgeous. I would love to make it there someday.
Remember its about even with Maine. They are way up there in the north.
Wallasey is about 53 degrees north - way north of Maine - more like Newfoundland and Labrador.
We are very northern but because of the jet stream winds we typically get quite mild temperatures all year compared to other countries as north as us. The last few weeks the jet stream moved over mainland Europe and got stuck giving them dangerous heatwaves and us rain, wind and northern temperatures
@@jwilliamb89 I envy that weather as an American. Much milder temps in both the winter and the summer than the northern US.
At some point I would love to see a Break 75 series where Rick returns to the courses he’s struggled the most on to see if he can get revenge/improve his previous score while trying to break 75 🙂
"Rick's Revenge Season 1"
I agree I would like to see him do say 4 rounds on same course and possibly rethink certain shots. Instead of driver use 3 wood. Just to see if he would improve score. I know he can play. I so much want to see him break 75.
One of the issues as Rick stated on a pod cast is the actual amount of golf he is playing these days.
A world of difference smacking a ball in the simulator to being on a course, and most importantly actually practicing on the weaker aspects of his game.
It’s like us amateurs playing once a week watching videos and thinking our game will improve automatically
@@guyr7351 you hit the nail on the head. For me that’s where I’m at playing once a week 2 weeks ago I shot an 82 and scored a 9 on the 16 hole. Could’ve broke 80 had I kept my head in the game. Now I think I can go out and score that ever time I play. Played yesterday carded a 99. 😂 I know how Rick feels. He’s trying to break 75 I’m wanting to break 80. Maybe one of these days it’ll happen. I’m rooting for Rick.
@@jamesthrower3865 I’m in the middle of a set of lessons, when with the pro ball striking is generally very solid, can even get the driver out and hit it nice and straight. Go on the range and I get 70-80% if drives what would be straight/ in play on the course.
Get on The course and the over the top swing ( natural swing) comes back, I can feel myself throwing the arms at the ball. Aaargh
Shot 119, 109 in club championship (26 h cap, par is 70) 😂😂😂 have yet to break 90, but at the weekend shot on second club I play at 95 v par 72 , I get 29 shots so 6 shots better than H cap, but had a 9 and a 7, plus 3 x 3 putts, and one double bunker shot.
My aim this season was to get to 18 or better which my eclectic card score shows I’m capable of, my best gross would be 74 v par of 72.
Just try and take a small win with every round, no 3 putts, is chipping better, out of bunkers in one shot etc.
must be the worst game in the world for those with fragile mind sets. I feel for pro’s whose game goes as it can be chasing circles.
That 3rd is absolutely class love playing that one 🤌
Looking for a confidence boosting Break 75... Im not sure grabbing some 10 year old Blades and heading to a very windy links was ever going to achieve that but i respect th challenge. Just got to laugh it off sometimes 👍
"It's gone absolutely nowhere! That might've gone 200 yards" hahah That's my regular drive pretty much lol
A new Break 75 is just what I need after a brutal Monday at work.
Fleetwood , Hull .. every time someone plays with Rick they finish top 2-3 in big tournaments! Break 75 magic
Love to see Ricky back on track
When you use older, second hand clubs it's my favorite type of videos. Blades?! that's a bold move for that course. Breaking 75 in these conditions would be epic, can't wait to watch the video now.
Don’t think 79 is +12
Great round
To shoot 79 in those conditions with a mixed bag of 10 year old clubs... Hats off Rick! Need to give yourself a bit more credit there! Onwards and upwards!
Still waiting to see you break 75 with new clubs!
The awkward moment when you see the title 10 year old golf clubs thinking "Oh these are gonna be old" then seeing Rick whip out a X Hot Pro Driver which is in my bag right now 😅😅 Love the matt finish and grey.
Rick produces fun videos even when his game betrays him a bit. Can he create a practice video on the range that benefits both his game and ours? I want rick to play well.
This is a channel bursting video.Hated it will all those silly edits and unskippable ads.
@@HorseRacingLegends the ads are nothing to do with Rick, pay for youtube premium and you get no ads.
@@olaftheblack9172 lol.
@@olaftheblack9172 lol.
@VintageHorseRacing yeah not everyone watches simpsons and south park.. better when they make their own funny edits of rick & guy instead of using a meme
I must share this. I was playing Diamond Woods just outside Monroe, Oregon and I was teamed up with a young man in his 30s. On about the 12th hole I was hitting a 8 iron into the the green and after I hit my shot he said, " what a golf shot" and started clicking his finger saying, "go, go go". I turned to him and said Rick Shiels? He said all the time!!!
Couldn’t have picked a tougher day to break 75. Fun to watch. Control that hook, it’s a killer. 79 in those conditions is very impressive.
Learn from Charley Hull. Tee up; get the club; pick your target and hit it. She’s a revelation.
Clubs aren't the issue, attempting to shape every shot and hooking the hell out of it may be 😂
It seems when people test clubs on a launch monitor they hit nice and straight one after another. Then on the course they try to get fancy every shot.
I love to see your struggles put on Yt. It serves as a reminder of how hard the game is, and it’s comforting if you have a bad day on the course!
Would love a break 65 with you and Guy building your own sets of used clubs!
Over 9 holes...?? 😂😂😂😂
Those greens look incredible! Breaking 80 in those conditions is still a great accomplishment! Just gotta stop missing left so much.
Thank you to the editors for those cut aways 😂😂
In a stiff wind you really need to hit straight, since any draw or fade is multiplied by 10. Unfortunately, Rick can't hit straight, it's not a shot in his arsenal.
I literally laughed out very loudly at the inserted funnies. There's no way it was at your golf, Rick!! ;-) A brilliant episode again Fellas.
Captain Hindsight amazing! I miss Guy though...
Nice to see more local golf to me! Royal and Wallasey are impossible when the wind is up Rick! Pair that with new clubs you did very well!
OH I LOVE THE GOLF BIDDER ONES 😊😊😊
Rick i have only been playing just shy of 2 yrs, have followed you from the beginning of my golf game & your a bloody inspiration! I am now seeing the things in my own game that you humbly show on your channel & the biggest one for me is being to hard on myself! I play so much better when relaxed & laugh off bad shots draw a line & move onto next hole, Have had 5 lessons with PGA coach & learnt shed loads, love the game , but i think i can safely say ALL golfers go through a crises game & then we come out better the other side! Thanks for your honesty on the course!
Why did it say +12 at the end and not +7? Regardless, you did really well considering the weather and your game not being where you’d like it to be.
I must admit Rick, I like the quicker paced vids on your own. This was a great one!
It’s been hard to watch Rick struggle with his game all of 2023 so far..at least he’s not one of those guys that snaps their clubs in half and curses up a storm. Plus he’s not ashamed to put the blame where it belongs..on himself. Come on Rick your better than you’ve been playing…👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Top tip. To optimise viewing of high quality content like this is Screen Mirroring on your Phone/Tablet. Connect to your TV and it's well worth a little effort. Keep it up Rick, followed you for a while now and it's fun. I play myself, but I'm only off 25, if only I could Putt.
That birdie on 15 was a well-deserved break after persevering through a tough start. Great as always, Rick!
Rick " I've always got excuse for shit shots " Shields 😂😂
I don’t know when it started, but adding the memes before or after Rick says something honestly adds a whole new level of enjoyment to the videos😂 keep it up guys! Amazing content as always
The editor has done you dirty there Rick. +12 on the final scorecard 😂
The memes are so GOOD! Props to the editors!
Great course. The fairways look just so slender.
Editor shafted you at the end. Shot 7 over and the score has a big red +12 next to it haha. Idek how they got to 12
I found this quote and I'm trying to take it to heart...as I've aged my handicap has shot up. Perhaps this will help you, Rick. Chin up! "You don't have the game you played last year or last week. You only have today's game. It may be far from your best but that's all you've got. Harden your heart and make the best of it." -Walter Hagen
The little clips in between are just brilliant 😂😂
Love these videos. Are 10 year old clubs really that old? How about trying with a 50 year old set...now that would be a challenge! This video was more about the challenge of tough wind conditions than club technology.
Great score considering tough conditions. I would like to see you try to break 75 using the following clubs: Callaway Biggest Big Bertha driver & 3w, 3 - SW Wilson Staff Pi5's , Odyssey white hot putter and 2 clubs of your choice.
Not got the facilities big man!! 😂😂 I love the memes in the video. Keep doing them they're making an already great video just that little bit better. Amazing work guys 🤙
What a pleasure it is to see you back hitting draws with driver instead of the high spinny fades. Your game isn’t all that far off - tough conditions today. Keep grinding and thanks for the fantastic video as always.
The little comedic inserts are a huge addition to the channel. Just the perfect amount. Great editing.
Oh yeah you thought it was great..?!🤔 I got tired of it already at the 14 min mark. Once or twice a video, to put some extra weight or a funny addition to the moment, I understand. But all the time doesn't fit the kind of channel this is imo. But each his own ofcourse.
I'm a member of this course and we all know how difficult it can be when the wind blows strongly. I think you played it very well in the conditions on that typical english summers day.
Loved the production on this video, I know it's one you probably didn't want to release...... But it was so funny. Keep the chin up Rock, the golf game will come back. It's the same for us all
Been a subscriber for years, so I will start of with that prior to commenting, with what I consider to be some constructive criticism for Rick - someone we all follow and love on YT, because, quite honestly, he is as real as it gets and he has the keen ability to relate to many of his subscribers but not over-editing his content, screwing up like the best of us, and accompanying it with some very colourful, and entertaining dialogue. That said, as someone who works in the social media industry, he is a very smart businessman, and has done a great job parlaying his OG following into different areas of content, sponsorships, and crossover opportunities with other popular channels i.e. Good Good, Finch etc. You will also notice that the frequency of posting content is a lot more consistent and elevated, and this is simply a byproduct of preserving health subscriber growth, and capitalizing on the general growth of both the golf industry, and how the golf industry has evolved into a more mainstream sport, with an affinity to a lot to the newer generations deciding to pick up a set of clubs and hack away at their local course - because what was once an old, stuffy, rich man's painfully boring excuse for a sport, has become a fun, interactive game that can be enjoyed in groups, encourages camaraderie and healthy competition amongst friends and strangers alike. This is big feat, because when you are in the YT game for a long time, you notice a lot of content creators stubbornly refusing to adapt with new trends, for the fear of alienating their original base and essentially jeopardizing what has become not just something they have monetized as a past-time, but their primary source of income. Now, on to the actual golf - now, this could just be Rick getting "fat", and I mean that figuratively, with popularity and recognition within the RUclipsr community,. I also am not a pro golfer, or even an "instructor" as Rick claims, so this is based purely one observation. I will also caveat that a lot of this might be "for the camera.... Rick obviously has a team of folks around him guiding his career and assisting in the day to day content creation in terms of production and distribution across the multiple channels he is a part of i.e. all the social platforms (including evolving within them such as reel/shorts content), sponsorships, apparel, instructor work which I am guessing he has given up in favour of this which I totally get because if you are privy to their compensation for content at his level, and I am, you would really question your choice of career, which I found myself doing daily, but I digress). OK, for the fear of turning this into a thesis which is what I have done, I will actually to get to my initially intended point or the TLDR, you can say. So, unless it is purposely being done to preserve his character of being the everyday, Joe-blow golfer we can all relate to (because, let's one honest, none of us are shooting 60s consistently, and leveraging Rick's content for tips and tricks in improving our game...at least not anymore). So, as part of his evolution, I think the frustration he is building from his game is because he its likely not fitted properly to his equipment. Let's be real, he doesn't pay for anything, and at that level, you have brands chomping at the bit to get you to feature their product line in your content, so he is likely seeded absolutely everything in return for content creation, or simply just product placement, discount codes and all that fun ad filler stuff...but, he should really think twice about always using blades and club specs that are usually reserved for scratch or better golfers. He is technically scratch, or so he claims, but it would be nice to see him swallow his pride and do so, because he seems to be the first guy to laugh at himself, not take it too seriously and publicize a lot of this to his viewers, but I am wondering if deep down, that his ego prevents him from actually regressing in terms of his equipment setup. He's not a 65 year old retiree, but he's been golfing for a long time, so I would guess that he spending A LOT less time practicing, instructing and generally improving his game, because content creation is more than a full time job...especially if you want to remain relevant and continue to make it a lucrative way of living, as it is livelihood dependent. Just a thought, but I think breaking 75 become a lot of more attainable when you're using clubs that are suited for you, and not a tour player.... Cheers! 🍻
Must admit I’d never heard of Wallesy Golf Club but it looks like a gem in dunes. Also very very tough as Rick showed us. Great video and though the A game wasn’t there, that looked a very respectable score in the conditions 👏👏
Links golf is brutal when there's any wind.... messes with your head too!🤪🤣🙈
That's not a bad finish Rick... those conditions looked BRUTAL.. Keep grinding!!
Rick, I have been following since you started, finally you have started playing like me 😂
The little videos in between shots were class - especially the door-smash. Very relatable!😂
Love the rugged nostalgia look of that putter
"I dont fink you have the facilities for dis big man" 😂😂
It's the rampage Jackson's tearing the door down for me 😂😂😂 s/o to that editor. KEEP YOUR HEAD UP RICK YOUR MUCH BETTER THEN ME LOL
Another very entertaining video, with Rick showing us all the proper way to deal with adversity on the golf course ( while still playing very well in my book)
Have a laugh at yourself, and try and do better next time 👍👏
+12, editors done him dirty at the end 🤫
Idea for a video " Rick Shiels shoots a 59" basically, you play a round and you rehit every shot you need to, until you shoot a 'scramble' 59. You count how many extra shots you take to see how many over the 59 it took you to achieve the feat.
"I haven't played so well lately so let me pick up a set of very unforgiving irons" 😂 Just kidding of course. Awesome video!
Weather conditions against you granted, but if you’re hitting wayward shots from off the tee or approaching greens, asking for birdies is akin to winning the lottery lol
One of the best courses I’ve ever played
go to 13:48 and watch the guy not get out of the bunker and watch his mates cover there faces 😂 😂 😂
Putting stroke looking good with the old Odyssey there!
I love for Rick to play well. But I find this very entertaining regardless. The filming, the editing, Ricks comments, the atmosphere of a fantastic-looking golf course. I am entertained!
Bless Rick. ‘This was supposed to be a confidence boosting round’.. 20+ mph wind with old clubs you’ve never used before! Not easy at all.
As you said Rick “funny old game”. That’s why we love it so much. Conditions were tough so don’t slaughter yourself too much.
1 over on the back 9 is absolutely unbelievable in those conditions. Couple of horrid lipouts as well. Well played Ricky!
Just bought a Taylor made tp soto putter, it literally looks brand new for a bit over 100 pounds…I would definitely recommend the website!
Just sayin... i break 75 on our home courses using model year 1994 clubs lol. Although i have finally got to the point where i can afford to spoil myself with new(er) clubs. Got a new putter and the Cobra LTDx driver. Still rocking the old big bertha 3 and 5 woods, and the old king cobra oversized irons. Only carry a 56° wedge (aside from PW).
I broke my personal drive record tonight absolutely smashing the driver 370 yards. Needless to say, absolutely love the cobra driver. My previous record was 301 with the old King Cobra 454 comp driver. I want to thank you rick as i watched your "longer drive" swing technique video and have been really drilling that technique to perfection. Ive only been swinging at like 75% while i worry about hitting the club square and straight consistently. My step son finally asked me to just swing as hard as i could and i was absolutely astonished at the result. Breaking my previous long drive by 70 yards is insane. I was hoping to be able to consistently hit good good 330 340 numbers. Obviously now i gotta work on making that contact everytime at 100% but still that drive was insane. Made our front 9 par 5 a really easily eagled hole.
Sorry for the long bragging post! Usually dont.. just still riding that high.
Anyways, live your videos Rick, love all your collabs with good good and your normal extras and the tour pros that come in. Thank you for your instructional videos and club reviews (helped me choose my driver. Always loved cobra but wasnt sure then you reviewed it and Matt Scharff absolutely clobbered that LTDz driver so mind made up). Keep it all up! If you have a 10 year old cobra iron set you will never use again id be happy to buy them from you and seriously upgrade my irons! Maybe i could break 65 at home!
Awesome round. I loved the way you didn't blame the clubs. Well done!
In the winter you should do a vlog type video, look for the worst weather, the closest golf course and go there
You Tube golf is a lucky charm. Charley played very well this weekend.
Meme edits killed me😂oddly fit well with Rick’s commentary
10 year old clubs? I use 30 year old clubs. Up your game, Rick!
Always a great monologue at the start. Great 10 yr old clubs. Still using the ATV wide sole for bunker shots.
👏 Props to whomever did the sound on this video.
The driver in my bag is 3 years old, the wedges 10, the 3W is 13 years old, and the irons are 16 years old. Putter is gilded and from the 60/70s. This challenge is close to my experience every day that I play! Shot 78 today, so not quite under 75 yet.
Lmao the video inserts in this killed me. Captain Hindsight had me in stitches 😂
Love how Rick gave himself an extra +5 on the final scorecard on the screen...its as if there is no difference between +7 & +12 because they're both rubbish scores to him
Nice one Rick , the bend in the road is up ahead so you can turn the corner with game
Absolutely love that no matter how bad you start out and how negative we can feel the attitude turning, you still keep your head in the game and finish out a round, usually with some decent scores! I need that same mindset!!!
How on earth did that tee shot on the 5th end up there? Off the tee it was near the Bush and over the fence?? 😂
Tough conditions, good round. Windy conditions can be so hard to score in. Good job out there.
Rick keep ya chin up! I assimilate my ups and downs in seasons! 1 season of bearable and 3 seasons of 5h1t! No doubt you have coached loads of people through this and you can do it too!
Enjoyed the cuts in this one. Especially the south park ones
Rick, I've watched the front 9 so far but I have to say, you are the ultimate optimist..! Play a tough course in challenging windy conditions, open with, "I've not been playing that well lately," and then pull out a set of butter knife MP-4's...
The edits on this episode were hilarious 😂😂
That putter lip out, them clipped to Rampage smashing the door was the funniest shit I've ever seen
