Lovely Video clip! Sorry for the intrusion, I would love your thoughts. Have you considered - Paneevelyn Swinging Clubsman (google it)? It is an awesome exclusive guide for revealing an effortless golf swing technique without the headache. Ive heard some super things about it and my work buddy after many years got cool success with it.
Great video content! Sorry for butting in, I am interested in your initial thoughts. Have you researched - Paneevelyn Swinging Clubsman (search on google)? It is a good one of a kind guide for revealing an effortless golf swing technique minus the hard work. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my good mate called Gray finally got great results with it.

Nice video content! Sorry for butting in, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you considered - Paneevelyn Swinging Clubsman (erm, check it on google should be there)? It is a great one of a kind guide for revealing an effortless golf swing technique without the normal expense. Ive heard some unbelievable things about it and my close friend Aubrey finally got astronomical success with it.
This video dramatically improved my irons accuracy. I was lifting the club, rather than rotating. Once I used Rick's technique, I started hitting the shots with more loft, straighter, and with more power. I keep coming back to get honed, with the video. Thanks, Rick!
Dan and James.....My challenge was the wrist setting, in reflection it seems so simple, but this was the challenge in my swing. Rick makes the complicated easy and takes the BS out of the golf swing...excellent stuff Rick.
This is what separates rick shiels from the others. Great presentation. Great explanation with great visuals. Frankly i dont recommend watching several pros teaching you how to swing. Its like asking several chefs how to cook chicken and eventually to many chefs spoil the broth.
Hi Rick-- this video single-handedly changed my season. I picked up the game last year and finished the year (in a snowstorm) with a 99. I was elated! My goal was to break 90 this year, and I couldn't get any closer than 94 due to inconsistent ball-striking. But today, implementing primarily the key ideas of turning hips/shoulders at the same time, and getting a little bit of wrist set, to hit confident approach irons and ended up hitting the green from 100-160 yards on almost every single hole. I ended with an 86, and I couldn't be happier. Thanks so much for simplifying the swing so that I could focus on just 2 swing thoughts and trust my swing!
In all the videos I’ve watched I swear this is the first one that has said anything about the wrist angle at take away, my practice swing after being aware to that feel so much better. Amazing videos Rick
setting the wrist angle has incredibly helped! before I was swinging and all I could create was an up and down swing, no matter how much I turned my hips and torso! I just couldn't figure out why! thank you so much!!!
First I just want to give a "shout out" to Rick for these lessons. They are invaluable and literally saved the game of golf for me. Secondly I want to comment that each of the specifics mentioned in this video are quite important. (You can't really skip any of them without having your swing suffer as a result) And finally, "setting the wrist" seems to be very central in getting your backswing to have the right shape. I start the clubhead motion by slightly starting to move the hips, and then within just a few inches go right into "setting the wrist" in a very deliberate fashion. If you wait too long before adjusting your wrists it's going to put several kinks in the shape of your backswing. (And your downswing can't be any better than your backswing was). Just wanted to pass this along - much gratitude.
This is video is an old gem. Had always been trying to keep my wrists stiff and straight. Apparently that's why I was always chunking iron shots. Thanks Rick
I’m 52 and decided to start playing. Monday I went with a friend to play a 9 hole municipal course close to me. I watched some videos but I was terrible. I am watching your videos today, went to the yard with some wiffle golf balls and my swing is much better. Thanks for helping me. I’ll keep watching.
Been playing for over 50 years. Got it down to a 6, then along came the internet. Too much information got in my head and my game went to the dogs. Thanks for getting back to basics with these videos. I feel like my game is back on track
Rick you saved my golf game! I've been playing for 15 years I'm a 10 handicap last year I developed a mean draw/hook I could not figure out what I was doing wrong. I watched this series of videos and your video on how to stop the hook. I was practicing in my living room and I couldn't believe what I was doing wrong. My grip was terrible and I had little to no hinge in my swing and I wasn't coming around enough and I wasn't unwinding properly. I went out to the range today and I couldn't believe the change I actually was starting to hit a light fade and in the process my ball speed jumped up 12mph. I can't wait for the season to start now. You have no idea how excited I am. Thank you so much!
Thank you for all the video's. From just a Guy of 62 from the netherlands. I started 5 Month ago playing golf. Thanks to you my handicap changed from 54 to 29.5
Unbelievably helpful! I've played for a few years now with multiple lessons and no one ever mentioned the slight wrist hinge. I was always either too around or too steep pulling up with the hands. The wrist hinge changes everything. I honestly felt like I got a cheat code to find the sweet spot and was instantly striking my irons with more consistency and power. Forever grateful to Rick.
I'm a beginner , i'm learning a lot with your videos , they're realy well done , thanks , by the way i'm not an English speaking person good thing I was and still am à huge Benny Hill fan , I actually understand what your saying (Canadian English's different) again love your work
Excellent teaching on the backswing. Thank you Rick for making this understandable for the average golfer. Totally agree that a little hinge in the wrist going back will help most of us get in the right position. Thanks
Rick, I just want to say thank you so much- your tips are so easy to understand and employ. I used all your swing tips and it was like magic, all of a sudden crushing my drives. You are the man thank you for doing this for free!
Thank you so much! That wrist angle was something I was missing in my swing. I've only been at it for a week, but everyone never mentioned the wrist angle. I'll try this tip at the range tomorrow!
You will never know how helpful this has been to a beginner like myself. This is the best/ easiest to follow break down I have ever seen, and I've paid for online courses in the past. I don't know anyone else offering this kind of training for free, not to mention your complete driver guide and fix your slice guide. All three series have helped improve my game tremendously. I can't stress enough how much these videos are appreciated!
I really like ur instructional videos, the one thing that is said in this back swing of irons and not ur other ones is setting ur wrists fairly early in the back swing, versus about half way point of the backswing in ur taking everything back in unison video
Rick you are an absolute legend. As a novice getting increasingly frustrated I was so desperate I consulted RUclips at the drive range. I stumbled across your video and you have completely and utterly reformed my swing to a point where I am now hitting ‘more’ consistently and straighter than previous. Will definitely check out your driver video also. I love the simplicity of your videos. As you stated some videos are so complex and overwhelming but yours are so clear. Many thanks Rick, have definitely subscribed.
Hi Rick I am a golfer who has been playing golf for many years. I want to let you know I am excited again about getting back to playing good golf. Your instruction on the complete golf swing guide opened my eyes to many things I have been struggling with this year. Thank you for letting me learn again from you the right way to swing.
OK I just left the range trying out the techniques that Rick teaches in this video and let me tell you this just completely changed my game!! 🏌🏻 just hit my driver straighter and longer and more consistently than I ever have. And Even when I miss hit my irons I hit them better and straighter! Thank you Rick
Superior instruction - these videos have really helped me. What isn't covered in this particular video (but has been in another of Rick's videos), is the club head rotation on the backswing. I had an epiphany at the driving range yesterday, and realized I was unconsciously trying to keep the club-head square to the ball on the backswing! After realizing this, I relaxed my wrists, or I guess my arms rather (rotation axis only) and allowed the club-head to rotate as I drew back, and every shot was cleanly struck on the downswing - and a massive increase in distance. Effortless swings are now possible for me. Thank you Rick for your excellent instructional videos!
By far the best backswing video I've seen. Informative yet very simple. I can see this series of tutorial vids being the 'go to' videos for golfers of all skill level.
Totally disagree. He doesn't elaborate on the ideal wrist angle at certain positions during the back-swing, which would give golfers valuable help during this complex movement. What angle should the forearms and the ground and the wrists and the forearms form when the club shaft is perfectly vertical? What about when the club shaft is parallel to the ground, earlier in the back-swing? 'Ever so slightly' (which looked like almost 90 degrees) doesn't really help. I also really dislike the cylinder analogy towards the end. Weight transfer is super important, he makes it sound like you shouldn't shift your weight at all. That's just plain wrong, and will severely limit your distances.
TheUrbanEpicure pretty much everything you asked isn’t really that relevant. There isn’t a one size fits all answer. And if you think about all those things during a swing it probably won’t go well. What he’s doing is giving more of a feeling. You want to turn, but need to hinge a little to start as well to avoid my most common mistake (pulling the club inside). His cylinder reference isn’t that bad either. Notice the visual is larger than his shoulder width, giving room for some lateral movement. You can move off the ball but you still want to feel tall and centered/balanced. Great advice for the average player. And actually quite useful for a scratch golfer like myself who tends to fall back into bad habits
Nonsense. Of course there is a one-size-fits-all approach - there is a CORRECT way to do it. And of course you shouldn't think about this during the swing, you're supposed to build muscle memory and do it right automatically. Useless video, omitting the most important aspects.
Rick Millions of THANKS!!!! this video helped me to stop an awful season of toppings and shanks and made me played my best score ever +2 in nine holes!!!! (unfortunately weather did not allow me to finish the course). The tip of setting the wrist angle, has changed my golf. Before I was an 18 handicapper, let see how much can I lower my scores now. As a golf instructor you may be pleased of hearing this: 😊 You have given me the best golf lesson ever. THANK YOU VERY MUCH RICK 😉
I'm 50 years old, and just coming back to golf after nearly a 30 year absence. These videos have been a godsend. Can't thank you enough for remembering us beginners! Great content!
Hi Rick, Ive just found your channel and really enjoying getting back into golf. Its been 15yrs since I last played off 6 back then. Now my minds expects results that my body cant deliver. I'd like to get back to playing descent golf and your videos are giving a little bit of that energy back for me. Its really hard work though - im shanking A LOT!....and then I nail the odd shot.
I really appreciate this series. I’d been trying way too hard to “fix” aspects of my swing, when I needed to revisit the fundamentals. This really helped to clear my head. Thanks!
I agree that this is by far the best instructional videos for golf. its details, complete and easy to understand. I am reviewing my golf swing base on your series of videos thank you so much !!
'rotate to whatever feels comfortable for you' - truer words were never spoken. My last lesson had my back swing compared to Tiger Woods and I was being twisted like a pretzel. Just didn't feel right and I couldn't hit the ball. So I just did what felt comfortable. Thank you, Rick.
Excellent video, the simple line that you made with reference to the club has brought my understanding together. I was an inconsistent 16 handicapper and my performance had improved through deeper understanding of the rotation that is relative to the length of the club rather than one swing for all. Thanks Rick
Thanks for these videos... I’ve been teaching a friend (friend 1) to golf & he’s been making remarkable steps quickly..l Then another friend (friend 2) comes along & after hearing how great friend 1 is doing, friend 2 decides he can’t be outshined from the teaching angle & starts taking friend 1 out to teach, and literally dismantling every single thing I’ve taught friend 1. Now friend 1 is hitting like Helen Keller & getting more frustrated. exactly what I’ve taught him is in your videos, including how awkward the golf stance/grip/swing seems at first, but how simple it actually is when you get used to it. Good job. Thanks.
2nd time I've seen this. Used to hit my irons great and couldn't drive. Now I've fixed the driver and my irons fall apart. Probably bringing the club too far behind me like you pointed out here. Gonna work on that and the wrist. Thanks for making it so simple!
First time seeing this video, Rick. Pure magic! Graphics were great for taking to the range as they easily remain in the mind's eye when practicing. Thanks!
i know it's an old post but helped me out massively 👍👍 just new to golf after a week watching your channel my m8s we're shocked i started hitting good rounds, well few pars, but i was no where near before lol
Unbelievable how easily that demonstration was to understand Rick! I've struggled on some days to put my finger on where I was goi g wrong with my swing. This gives me So much insight . Thanks Rick 👍
set the wrist angle as soon as you hit the middle of the opposite thigh, go back with the club to where you feel comfortable while keeping the left arm straight and let her rip ! great video Rick
I've watched this and been to the range and practiced only once trying this, it's improved my ball striking already, after not being able to hit it properly, long way to go, but definitely changed my mindset on setting up, and swinging the club 👍
I used to set my wrists at the top of the backswing. Shoulder and back pain have shortened my swing and I could no longer get to the point where the set of the wrist occurs. Setting early is a miracle. It is amazing how much higher and straighter my shots are now!
I am an 11 handicap, but have been struggling for a few months... I have been feeling that I lost something in my swing. This series was a very nice way to get me back to basics and quit over thinking everything. I enjoy the channel, Keep up the great content!
Thanks for watching the video!

That’s also what I’m struggling with. Did u have any drills or exercises to fix it?
Agreed. Felt the same way.
This video is pure gold, anytime my swing falls apart (which is always) I watch this video again and it gets me back to the basics. Thanks!
I do the same, and watch it these videos so as a reminder. Very helpful. I probably wouldn't be playing as much, or at all if I didn't find his video.
you just saved my golf swing! No one has said/shown setting the wrist, I was always rotating my wrists and have a terrible slice! Thank you again!
I have had a similar problem for years. Now I get it!
Dan and James.....My challenge was the wrist setting, in reflection it seems so simple, but this was the challenge in my swing. Rick makes the complicated easy and takes the BS out of the golf swing...excellent stuff Rick.
Best instruction i have seen online, so simple uncomplicated and effective. Topman thank you 👍

Michael Little lol
This video has helped me tremendously. It turns out that I wasn't setting my wrists properly and that's why I kept hitting a big pull hook.
Same!
This is video is an old gem. Had always been trying to keep my wrists stiff and straight. Apparently that's why I was always chunking iron shots. Thanks Rick

Thanks very helpful, I will be reviewing several times, the range first, to practice, then on the golf course. Thanks
Unbelievably helpful! I've played for a few years now with multiple lessons and no one ever mentioned the slight wrist hinge. I was always either too around or too steep pulling up with the hands.
The wrist hinge changes everything.

This has been the better than any lesson I've ever had. Hitting it in the middle more often than ever before. Thank you RS!!!
This answered questions I have been asking for years. Thanks Rick, fantastic series of videos.
Excellent teaching on the backswing. Thank you Rick for making this understandable for the average golfer. Totally agree that a little hinge in the wrist going back will help most of us get in the right position. Thanks
Rickster, I love how you are in this video.
Deserve a lot of praise for these videos Rick. Helped massively. Come back to them now and then which is great. Cheers 👍🏼
Thanks a lot !!! You changed my golf life with your angle tip. The best tutorial to realize an efficient swing. I'm waited for it since 35 years ;-)
I've watched tons of videos. This is the best one I've seen. Hands down!!
Rick, I just want to say thank you so much- your tips are so easy to understand and employ. I used all your swing tips and it was like magic, all of a sudden crushing my drives. You are the man thank you for doing this for free!
The wrist bend description is fantastic. Thank you
Thank you so much! That wrist angle was something I was missing in my swing. I've only been at it for a week, but everyone never mentioned the wrist angle. I'll try this tip at the range tomorrow!
How did it work out? Recently lost my swing..
You will never know how helpful this has been to a beginner like myself. This is the best/ easiest to follow break down I have ever seen, and I've paid for online courses in the past.

You do such a great job keeping things simple and easy to replicate! Keep the free tips coming
Great comprehensive video
Thanks! The wrist bend feels so much better and more like a real golf swing!
I always come back to videos. Thanks Rick for taking time to do them.
Hi Rick
I am a golfer who has been playing golf for many years.
I want to let you know I am excited again about getting back to playing good golf.
Your instruction on the complete golf swing guide opened my eyes to many things I have been struggling with this year.
Thank you for letting me learn again from you the right way to swing.
Thanks for the pointers! Nice videos
Hi Rick - I've watched many of your videos which I find very informative but this one is SUPER helpful. Thanks!

Best swing guide on YT!
Good video, but showing how cyclical golf is, parts reminded me of “Square to Square Golf” from the 70’s.
Nice video and give me a lot of knowledge to fix it my back swing ..thank you
By far the best backswing video I've seen. Informative yet very simple. I can see this series of tutorial vids being the 'go to' videos for golfers of all skill level.
Matlee - thanks for your comments. Share these VIDS on social media to help get Rick more views. It's fantastic, no?
Its not

Nonsense. Of course there is a one-size-fits-all approach - there is a CORRECT way to do it. And of course you shouldn't think about this during the swing, you're supposed to build muscle memory and do it right automatically.
Useless video, omitting the most important aspects.
Wow! I have been taking lessons for years and I never had anyone talk about wrist set. Huge help! Thanks Rick!
Rick Millions of THANKS!!!! this video helped me to stop an awful season of toppings and shanks and made me played my best score ever +2 in nine holes!!!!

Hi Rick, Ive just found your channel and really enjoying getting back into golf. Its been 15yrs since I last played off 6 back then. Now my minds expects results that my body cant deliver. I'd like to get back to playing descent golf and your videos are giving a little bit of that energy back for me. Its really hard work though - im shanking A LOT!....and then I nail the odd shot.
I really appreciate this series. I’d been trying way too hard to “fix” aspects of my swing, when I needed to revisit the fundamentals. This really helped to clear my head. Thanks!
Hogan described it as turning in a barrel. Setting of wrist angle late may leave the face open. Nice vid Rick.
Superb Video no habla habla and straight to the point.
This guy's awesome. Just started a couple weeks ago and these tips have helped immensely
you are the best mister !!!! big help -ive got a ball net in the back yard and im working on setting my wrist now because of your tip ==thank u
Your take on the backswing is a lot easier to understand, some of the videos I've been watching sound way to over complicated, great video Rick 👍
Great GREAT video. Not so many videos explain the wrist position through the swing. Thanks for that.
Setting the wrist going back is a massive help for me, cheers
Rick you are a fantastic teacher, and these compact lessons give me a lot more confidence with my swing and how I can improve. Thanks!
Thanks Rick. Started teaching at a local school here in Las Vegas. Needed some training videos and these are excellent.
is the most best coach in my opinion ......thank you for all your video...
I agree that this is by far the best instructional videos for golf.
its details, complete and easy to understand.
I am reviewing my golf swing base on your series of videos
thank you so much !!
Always a pleasure watching your videos
Wife and I love them heaps
Brilliant. You’ve helped my golf so much. I’ve been swaying 👍
Great video Rick
Great help, building confidence with several different bits you've created. Thanks, JJ
One of your best videos Rick. Making the backswing an easy and uncomplex issue. Well done.
'rotate to whatever feels comfortable for you' - truer words were never spoken. My last lesson had my back swing compared to Tiger Woods and I was being twisted like a pretzel. Just didn't feel right and I couldn't hit the ball. So I just did what felt comfortable. Thank you, Rick.

Very informative and simple, just what us golfers need.
I'll be watching more of Rick's great videos 👍
2nd time I've seen this. Used to hit my irons great and couldn't drive. Now I've fixed the driver and my irons fall apart. Probably bringing the club too far behind me like you pointed out here. Gonna work on that and the wrist. Thanks for making it so simple!
First time seeing this video, Rick. Pure magic! Graphics were great for taking to the range as they easily remain in the mind's eye when practicing. Thanks!
Best instructions ever, thanks for your help!
i know it's an old post but helped me out massively 👍👍 just new to golf after a week watching your channel my m8s we're shocked i started hitting good rounds, well few pars, but i was no where near before lol
Unbelievable how easily that demonstration was to understand Rick!
I've struggled on some days to put my finger on where I was goi g wrong with my swing.
This gives me So much insight .
Thanks Rick 👍
set the wrist angle as soon as you hit the middle of the opposite thigh, go back with the club to where you feel comfortable while keeping the left arm straight and let her rip ! great video Rick
Best explanation I've ever heard. Thanks, Rick!
Rick..still waiting for the driver video but still keep re-watching these..thanks
Your videos are so simple and help me alot
Excellent video with simple explanation. The best I've ever seen and I'm an instruction addict.
Nice to see you getting back to the bones of the swing
This helped me so much. The wrist set was the key for me. Hitting pure, far, and noticed I am not plowing big deep divots anymore. Thank you!
Best explanation and demonstration I've seen so far of the backswing - thanks - i'll be watching more of your stuff!
I've watched this and been to the range and practiced only once trying this, it's improved my ball striking already, after not being able to hit it properly, long way to go, but definitely changed my mindset on setting up, and swinging the club 👍
Thanks!
I used to set my wrists at the top of the backswing. Shoulder and back pain have shortened my swing and I could no longer get to the point where the set of the wrist occurs. Setting early is a miracle. It is amazing how much higher and straighter my shots are now!
I am an 11 handicap, but have been struggling for a few months... I have been feeling that I lost something in my swing. This series was a very nice way to get me back to basics and quit over thinking everything. I enjoy the channel, Keep up the great content!
Great help with all your videos Rick!
Really helpful Rick - simple and easy to understand.
Best golf lesson I've ever had, Thanks Rick.
Thanks for getting back to what we all love to see you do. Cheers.
That setting of the wrist earlier has really helped me....Thanks...
Rick these videos are incredible! Congrats on your success
Sight wrist hinge in the backswing and pretending to keep the body in a cylinder are the most impactful tips I've ever got in golf
