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.
……..Jack holds numerous long drive records, can reverse dunk an 11 foot basketball goal, run a 4.0 40 yard dash, bench press 450, is fluent in German, Spanish, Zulu, and 5 Chinese dialects, and during the full moon can levitate...
lol my hero.
... but wait, there's more!
Wait a minute! Aren’t you talking about “Buckaroo Banzai?”
You misspelt Chuck... Chuck Norris 😂
lol!
I can only imagine how hard it was for Rick not to die of laughter throughout this entire review/video.
How dare you insult the great Jack Hamm.
it looks like somebody sliced a metallic red apple in half
Take 247... lol
@@ryanmoyer4812 😂
Can we all just agree that Rick is the real MVP for buying and testing these things for us?
👍
You think he buys all this shit? It’s all sponsored lol. Rick is the man don’t get me wrong
We’ll he’s a multimillionaire
Definitely yes
@@DonGeeber agree with everything you said
The equipment even looked like junk. LOL Thank you Rick for the hilarious testing video. Keep them coming! I think I would have been laughing through the entire filming of that test.
I thought the exact same thing. I have a $50 driver that looks better than those clubs
Looks like a toy!
They are made with cheap pot metals. I had somebody that wanted one of the older models reshafted and when you heat the hosel to pull the shaft the crap metal will start to bubble.
I had the same thought. It looked like hand painted.
What if already carry 600 yards
You forgot to yell, "POW" when you hit the ball. That's the real secret to the Hammer! Easily lost 80 yards with every swing because of it...😂🤣😂
BOOM! POW! WHAM! GRAAWWWW!
Gotta hit it one through the particle board, POW!!
Exactly
To be fair, 4 out of 10 putts made from 5 feet is more than Rick makes with his real putter.😂 For real though, I love these reviews of crazy claim golf equipment. Keep up the good work, Rick!
That's hilarious! I was going to say the same thing...
Still laughing, and I read this first an hour ago.
he clearly wasn't focusing on those putts
😂😂😂😂 well played
OUCH!!!
I would love to see Rick get Jack hammer out to prove that his driver works the way he says it does. That could be a really fun video to watch
The guy was at least 40 in 90s. He’s either dead or about 75 years old.
@@keithevans78 so then most likely someone just using his name to make a buck.
Waste of time for Rick haha
Where is the disinformation committee when you need it??!
@@keithevans78 you know who that is right. Jack Hamm. The OG football player. Dudes wild
Rick, this is Mr Hamm writing in the comments. In every driver box we tape an envelope of golden speed dust. The patented dust is key to achieving +60 yards with deadly accuracy. It's unfair to assess our clubs without applying the golden flight dust first.
You're actually meant to snort it
Hahahaha
@@scottprisk4886 hey we have the same last name
What??? Golden speed dust....?!?!?
You got to be kidding 🤣
BOOOOOOM
What a great review, ordered the complete setup after watching this!
Bwaaaaaa!!!
me too, anybody want to buy a heap o' shyte second hand?
@@davec8730 lol
I was actually laughing through this whole video thinking about being on the course seeing some guy show up to the first tee with this whole set up while wearing a muscle shirt and his hat on backwards! LoL Rick this video should be aired on national Television so people wouldn’t get fooled by these gimmicks! Thanks for these videos
The Golf Channel averages 150,000 viewers per day. This video has over 1,000,000 views. Being on national television is pretty much worthless.
@@michaelg9655 Plus youtube is global
as you said, 150k views PER DAY, every day. lots of guaranteed ad space. it takes weeks or months to gain a million views@@michaelg9655
You forgot to yell "POWWW" after each strike, Rick. That is where all the real power is generated.
Exactly! Rookie mistake...🤣
😅😂🤣
The man is hitting PRO V’s on the range for us! What a legend!
Yeah that’s the craziest part of the whole video! Rick’s RUclips money must pay well lol
That was my very FIRST thought. 😂
I mean its like 50 bucks cost. As far as business expenses go. Minimal
@@joeingles5854 Peanuts plus part of the biz.
I bet he sends Guy out to pick them up...🙈
If this whole RUclips thing doesn't work out, Rick has a future in infomercials! "But wait, there's more! Not only is this the longest driver in golf, but it also rotisseries a chicken in ten minutes and makes your car headlights shine like new!"
lol so great.
Just set it... AND FORGET IT! 😂
the chicken gets me....i'm in !!!
Thank yewwww, Rick.... For taking one for the team, I'm sure none of your followers really thought you were going to gain 60 yards. But it was fun to watch! Cheers!
The machining on the face of the driver during the close up looks horrendous. Crazy claims indeed. Great video as always
Absolute garbage machining! And seemed like the paint work is crap too!
Yeah, the insert is poorly fitted 6:45
All you really have to do is look at it to see its crap.
I feel like they took all the old backlog original hammers and painted them really bad ground the face edges and added a cool name
“Jack Hamm learned the secret to golf and long-driving during a vision quest. As a 16 year-old boy, Jack traveled to the darkest reaches of Asia, where he sought truth, purpose, and the answer to one question: how do you hit a golf ball 500 yards?His journey took him to the Himalayas, where he engaged in a death-match with a 200 year old Yeti. After Jack defeated the Yeti with a rear naked choke, the Dali Lama gave him a ring of power, and told him to seek out the Shao Lin monks for training.
It is during his time learning the Shao Lin way that Jack got a glimpse of the secret to power. His Master, Wong Drive, teed up a ball and struck a shot 200, maybe 210 with an 9 iron. He told Jack he must focus his qi, or "chi", and breathe through his eyes to focus his power on the ball. Jack, now able to breathe through his eyes and hold that breath for 5 minutes, traveled back to the US to show the world his long-driving skills.He saves us the trip to Asia by making fantastic products like the Hammer driver and Longball golf balls available for purchase. Jack holds numerous long drive records, can reverse dunk an 11 foot basketball goal, run a 4.0 40 yard dash, bench press 450, is fluent in German, Spanish, Zulu, and 5 Chinese dialects, and during the full moon can levitate...Later that night, had dinner with the world's most interesting man and told him to get a life” from toms4club.com
🤣😂🤣😂🤣 love it
Brilliant
And guess who caddied for Jack in the Himalayas, Carl Spackler
Very good Grasshopper! Snatch Pebble Beach Pebble from hand. It will be time for you to leave .ruclips.net/video/qr4HbJRRcZE/видео.html
This one of my favourite videos. Love the Break 75, love the games with / vs. Pros. But the confidence that Rick is exuding right now gives him the ability to call it straight, not be afraid and be really funny. Great integrity, great content.
P.S. Bring back the Golfbidder challenge!
That long glove was impressive. I reckon I could throw that further than I could throw other gloves.
Anytime somebody comes out with a new product, then puts a video for that product on RUclips, but doesn’t let anybody leave comments for that product… well, let’s just say, it’s probably less than stellar. 😂🤣 Rick, love the vids!
As I watch this, my expression cannot be any more smug than it is watching this.....my eyes cannot possibly roll far enough back into my head....i get the feeling our man Rick feels much the same way. Good on ya rick for showing what was NEVER a legit set of golf products.
Only thing I actually use in this video is the zero friction tees. They’re pretty nice for when I’m playing horribly and just start doing long drive competitions with my cousin every driver hole. Added benefit is that they never break and they never get lost since they stick so far into the ground lol
Hahahah “the LONGEST glove in golf” that got me belly laughing
I woulda liked to have seen the ball that was provided hit with your driver to see how it performed vs the pro v
4:30 I read the putting instructions and that sounds about right…the pray and putt stroke🤣
If Rick knew how to properly utilize the 6 turbo speed slots he would have witnessed what the hammer is truly capable of.
👆underrated comment!
Friend of mine used to have a driver called The Whistler.
It made a whistling noise in the down swing.
And then sounded like someone kicking a garbage can when you hit the ball.
I have a putter that resonates and rings after you hit it. It's super helpful for fucking with your partners as they're trying to focus on putting.
I was on holiday in the states way back in 2004 and clearly remember the infomercials on the golf channel for this same driver but obviously a previous model. The infomercials were hilarious with the Jack Hamm dude hitting drives out of bounds and into the mountains. Hugely sensational. What's scary is that this company is still going after all these years which means plenty have fallen for this madness....
It's that old? :D
@@151bar151 yes it is and suckers keep buying it lol.
I remember that exact infomercial and was thinking it was ridiculous then. Lol
I know who would fall for this nonsense? It is illegal to use so why buy it.
With the new technology of club fitting and launch monitors, it is clear that unless you optimize launch angle and increase clubhead speed, as well as improve swing path, you WILL NOT gain any significant distance. Ball matching can produce 10-15 yards on a driver, but that is about all you can gain without improving your swing mechanics and/or fitness. Rick's video proves all of that in a nicely done demonstration - great stuff!
You forgot to yell “POOOWWWW!” When hitting it. That’s the key that unlocks the magic power source
Love these types of video! Well done Rick!
This guy is the Inspector Gadget of golf. Can't wait for his next contraption... Literally a turbo-powered driver with afterthrust 😂
Pow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That commercial was on at 3:00 in the morning for years.
As a big thank you for 10 mins of pure comedy, I shall watch 3 full length adverts on your vids 🙂
Regardless of the gimmicks I actually like those zero friction long tees you can tee higher in certain situations and I've been using the same tee for 3 outings now
The tees are good I use them too. I think it's a fine option rather than classic tees. My dad got gimmicked into hammer drivers and can't make good contact. He just doesn't wanna give them up
what a legend, keep up the great content 💪
@Don't read profile photo why exactly are you commenting this repeatedly it's not that funny
I would like to see Martin Borgmeier with this “long” driver !
im 3 minutes into this video and im crying. lmao this is the best video you have ever posted.
These sites remind me of the ads I used to see in vintage comic books. Learn to throw your voice, enormous remote controlled monsters, x-ray specs, hypnotic coins, 100’s of toy soldiers…. All of it crap.
C’mon Rick, everybody knows the hammer long golf balls pick up speed in flight with their quantum glide F-19 super flow technology. You can’t trust the GC Quad.
This is actually one of my favorite RS videos. Absolutely hilarious!!! I appreciate Rick buying nonsense like this and giving it a go.
Best thing i loved about the driver is the sound lol that would be great fun to hear at every swing.
I would love to see Rick test the legal version of the Krank drivers to see how they compare to his Ping.
To be fair, golf pros who carry it 280 with a draw aren’t the ones buying this driver. Clearly it’s ridiculous and doesn’t work but there is still a part of me that’s a little curious if you gave it to a 30 handicap slicer who swings at 80 mph if they would see an extra 10 yards or something and slightly increased swing speed. I highly doubt it but just curious, ya know?
No absolutely not. It's junk. Total scam.
No, it's absolutely a garbage gimmick. REAL companies designing REAL drivers are optimizing with R&D, quantifiable tests, actual demonstrated results - they want 30 handicaps to be successful just as much as tour pros.
I was never interested in the hammer x but I am very interested in the stand alone putter. I feel like it would help me learn to read greens
This was comedy gold. The shaft is not like any other driver on the planet had me laughing
Does anyone remember the killer bee driver? I'd love to see if Rick could find one! I actually have hit one b4 and it seemed to do the job. It belonged to a kid in the group I was in backnin high-school! Agree 100% these hammer clubs are rubbish! Thanks for the great videos! Look for a killer bee driver and test it please!
I've still got one of those!
Yep! I had one of those! When I got it right it definitely hit the ball further, but I couldn’t find any sort of consistency with it. That longer club shaft was too hard to adjust to.
I work at the course where Jack Hamm comes and hits balls on the driving range. Super cool guy and the driver is very fun to hit and goes over the trees at the back of our range which are 300 yards out
What a great video! I just stumbled on your content and this is the first video of yours that I've seen. Awesome production quality, great pacing, great edit, love that you gave him the benefit of the doubt. Can't wait to watch more of your stuff.
It really felt like Rick was subtly roasting them for the first few minutes 😂😂😂
Well, their website is no longer loading. You put them out of business, Rick. Good (and fair) review as always.
class line "worried about the club house behind" ha ha ha
This guy is from my hometown, and for a while it had the shop where he sold this junk. I personally never met him, but according to those in the know, he was kind of thought of as the village idiot.
It's pretty obvious he just buys crap out of Asian manufacturer catalogs and has his Hammer brand slapped on them. Then makes up random claims to sell them. I doubt any of the designs are even his own...just picked from a catalog.
I love your honesty in equipment reviews
I bet you money that if Jack Hammer offered him endorsement money that opinion would change very quick.
@@tiderbean i doubt that because he's Criticized other equipment hes endorsed by in the past via Titleist golf balls
@@johnbrohl1709 I'm saying his "brutal honestly" would be dialed back...face it... money talks.
@@tiderbean maybe but I also think his honest opinions is what makes his money too. But there's plenty of equipment review shows on RUclips too
@@johnbrohl1709 your point? Why do you bring up other review shows on RUclips? It sounds like you don't like my reply or comment so I really don't care and I'll comment where I so desire.
Love it. Classic Rick review. Miss this sort of content.

The concern for the clubhouse when hitting the hybrid…Brilliant. 😂
Fun to watch video! Thanks Rick!!!
I love the sarcasm right off the rip 🤣🤣
Thanks Rick, needed something a bit light hearted. 👍
I'm from South Africa. We currently have "loadshedding",but I will send a photo of my clubs,no new clubs,mix. I enjoy them,had some good shots,some bad. I believe the length of my clubs differance,has an affect on my game,even as I try to adjust with each club. No handycap as yet,but enjoying the game. I have seen many clips,however,I like the way the you do it.
I hit the Hammer X about 420 yds every time. You have to use all the stuff Rick showed plus the Hammer X mouth guard and jock strap. It's like Rick wasn't taking the extreme distance of the Hammer X 2022 seriously enough. Kaboom baby!
Rick is a comedian now haha love it
This is by far your funniest video!!
🤣 Love how you bought everything . So good.
Thanks, Rick. Appreciate the review of Junk in a box!
Rick, I am strongly suggesting you do a video on Bombtech Golf! Lots of people think they're gimmicky but they're legal to use in competition, relatively inexpensive, and highly rated on their website!
I can't believe how awesome that glove works!
Late to this party ... Rick you are fantastic love the content and just for the fun of it I would love to learn how to use all 3 items just to prove to my mates that branding is not always the best route. Love & God Bless !
I work on Jack Hamm's vehicles. I do all his tire work! He gave me one of his drivers! He's super nice!
I like the zero friction tees actually. Thee zero friction gloves are actually really good one size fits all gloves. Otherwise it's really hard to find a brand and model that fits XXL right hands.
Lol! How have I not seen this till today?! Hilarious! Love it!
Hey, Rick. I think you're supposed to yell "Pow!" or "Boom!" when you smash with the hammer.
Great video. Most entertaining equipment demo vid I've ever seen. Funny as hell.
You sir are absolutely the best. I enjoy all your content very much! Keep up the good work
So glad for this video, I thought that guy screaming on the commercial hitting happy Gilmore length was real.
With that being said Hammer x sold one driver one hybrid one glove and one putter this year. Double their sales from last year all thanks to one outstanding patron Rick Sheils
I've never played golf but I'm addicted to your channel and videos. Love it! I want to give golf a try but don't have a clue where to start. Do I have to have my own clubs? Do I need a membership at a golf course? I looked online and read about taster sessions but non of the websites for my local clubs seem to mention anything for total beginners.
You can rent clubs at most golf courses. You don't have to belong to a course.
You should go to a driving range first, preferably with an instructor to help you get started.
Call your local golf course and see if they have a range and somebody who can help you get going.
Good luck, and have fun!
Hahaha thank you for testing this rubish so we do t have to. I love these videos, good laughs
You are the man! @rickS thank you
You are BRILL !! Entertaining also.
The design on the driver face looks like the Wal-Mart logo. Maybe they’re trying to compete with Costco
What a Great FUN video, They say it must go that far, Hmmm
Glad you put it to the test.
Would love to see you hit the New Krank's Rick.
Thanks for the video.
There's a sucker born every day, when it comes to these products...lol. Great video!
Rick taking the piss to the next level 🤣🤣
also depends on who is hitting it, see Alex Etches video on the air hammer review, hits it over 300 yards!!
Brilliant video.
Rick, love ur takes bud.. Brilliant 🇿🇦
Hilarious vid Rick, loved it!
I have the hammer x and it is incredible
Thats no ordinary whistle, Rick. That is the sound of a 450 yard guided missile that the ball will become.
😂 I can’t believe people would fall for Thai tripe! But they do! Another great video Rick 👏👏
Try testing the original Orlimar Trimetal. Came out around 1998 and still one of the best infomercial golf clubs ever made
The thing I can’t get over is the Walmart logo on the club face 🤣🤣 It looks just like it
That whistle on the back swing is hysterical...
The aerodynamic pass through in the face is interesting because it has potential to work if the materials do not flex excessively causing a drop off in ball speed
Years ago I played a charity scramble where Jack Hamm was waiting at one of the holes and we got to play off of his drive. pretty sure he wasn't using any of these products, but I can say his drive ended up in the fairway roughly 75 yards from the green on a 529 yard hole. Pretty crazy to experience it in person.
So you're saying his other shots must be massive to average 400 yards from tee when he has the odd 75 yarders
@@PioneerAtHome 529-75=454
Happy to help finance these tests via clicking that Like button. Thanks for all you do!
Rick, can you do a review on a old iron set. maybe to show the technology over time thing. i just picked up golf and picked up a old set of irons and wonder whats your thought. this very first full titanium set. Tommy Armour Ti 100.
