@rick, is it just me or is your backswing slower? Seems so much more controlled. I'm only 10min into this video and already loving it. Great job fellers.
This is one of the things I think Grant contributed to Good Good - one thing that I feel is sorely missing after his departure - his pure enjoyment of someone else's excellent shot. He genuinely appreciates a great golf shot. It's a huge confidence booster for his opponents and playing partners. And it's great sportsmanship. His positivity is infectious. Well done Grant!
I have to get out of Chicago. Amazing city with great golf courses. Arguably the best summer city and summer weather. However, it’s unplayable for 6 months and my game regresses.
@@williamcarothers4976 true. I’m in suburbs of chicago. I play at stonewall orchard all the time. But we only have a limited amount of time to play. I’m glad I’m still able to keep a low single digit handicap but with limited weather, it’s sucks
Mate, he most of all needs Rick to perform if the content going to be anything special. I actually think he is playing pretty soft (here and there) to spare Rick from a real humiliation. With that said. Rick does perform way better than expected.
Great to see Rick’s takeaway a bit slower than his normal. Looks like it is giving him a bit more consistency and confidence. Love the video and how much would all of us pay to have Grant’s golf swing. It’s a thing of Beauty!
Have been looking forward to this one. Not easy to go head to head with Grant “the king of swing” Horvat, but Rick’s swing is looking so much better than a few weeks ago. His backswing tempo is way calmer and better and it’s paying off. Love this content 🙌🏻
Was thinking the same thing. You can tell him playing with Grant who is so silky smooth has really helped him slow it down. The misses to the right are when he gets a little too slow. He relies on timing as his arms need to match his body and they can get flippy through impact. I’d like to see him with an even more strong left grip so he can’t flip it left
@@markmcdonald6459 yeah very true! The first few holes he was a different player, there’s a difference between smooth and slow for sure! Good on him for implementing the slower takeaway in a match though! 🙌🏻
I just can't get enough of Grant's golf swing, it's poetry in motion. Looks so effortless so smooth. If only I had a swing like that I might be able to play at a better level. Wow!!
So much fun to watch these two guys play. Rick and Grant both are amazing guys and so much fun to watch them play together !! Keep creating these videos !!
3 holes in and I'm thinking you gave Rick a lesson before you started. A much slower back swing and smoother down swing from him and it's the best I've seem him hit the ball. If only his putting had matched the rest of his game. Grant, your swing is, as ever, the purest there is. 👏👏
Grant man, thanks for the 18 holes stroke play! Love all your content but I always think this is the purest format. Thanks to you and your team for all the hard work so we can enjoy!
Really enjoy watching these cross-atlantic matches with our UK brothers. We are different, but there are so many similarities as well. Loving the content Grant!
You can add Rick and Grant’s ages together . . . and I’d still easily be their Senior . . . yet I love watching them share their gifts and “love of the game” I turned to late in life. These two gentlemen are my absolute favorite male golfers . . . Iona takes my admiration for the gals. Thanks for sharing your time on the “Links” with us!!! Wonderful match indeed!!!
Rick’s tempo looks so much better in this video than it has for a long time. Great to see him coming onto his game. Hope he can keep it going and get even better.
Really liking the look of Rick's swing lately. Love the backswing tempo he has adapted, used to be a little quick before. Never looked so good in my opinion! Great match!
Rick was the first Golftuber I subscribed to, I've waiting so long for him to do all these videos with everyone else. The golf community is absolutely amazing.
One thing I've noticed about Rick over the years, just as many have, is that once his confidence is gone the easy ones start to get away from him. Then a snowball effect happens. Rick was playing as good as I've seen him play in a long time at the beginning. Which was really good to see. Rick don't beat yourself up so much. That pressure is hurting your game. I know, easier said than done. I'm not through with the video, but I hope Rick finds it later in the round 👍. EDIT- Literally 2 minutes after posting this comment, Rick acknowledges his confidence issue. Gotta stay positive Rick!
Rick's putting is atrocious. Too many initial putts don't even make it to the hole. First putt should go 1-3 feet past the hole if it doesnt drop. He's leaving a bunch 4-5 feet short
Yes, I recognize myself in a lot of his energy when things aren't going great. I would love to see him work with a mental game coach about how to shake off the bad golf vibes / negative spiral, that would be interesting for me also.
I so enjoyed that! The golf was great, but the conversation and discussion of golf shots and the adversity and joy expressed by each of you shows that even a high handicap golfer like myself experiences sometimes on every hole keeps me trying to ever improve. Thanks to both of you!
Grant, you're the best. Appreciate all the hardwork,long hours of thinking about content that you put yourself through. Keep going mate Love from Sydney Australia
Rick is a true pioneer and gentleman. He has actually paved the way for so many RUclips golfers. Love watching Rick and Grant doing some content together.
Great video by two great dudes. Rick fixes his putter distance control and he's shaving strokes and putting pressure on Grant. Grant had it easy today but I'm needing to see more!
This was my first time seeing you. I’m now a subscriber. Man you are the straightest hitter I’ve ever seen. Watching you pure the ball was just impressive.
Great video. It’s impossible not to like Rick. I love the end of the video. His dedication to improve is so cool considering what a great golfer he already is.
Omg I am so stoked to watch this! Two of the best instructors on YT and very nice guys all around. You guys have helped me out so much as a beginner and I always talk to people about your tips!
LOL Grant did that on purpose.. come on now it was obvious that rick was getting upset & grant as the good guy he is felt sorry & started shooting bad so rick could catch up & get his confidence back up… Grant is too damn good at golf… dudes a beast on the course.!!
I follow both these players and have looked forward to this match since they played last when GG visited the UK. One of my favorite things about Grant is his positivity. In this video you really see him trying to boost Rick’s confidence and energy. Amazing round from both of you! I don’t think I’d be too upset shooting under 80 and these two did it pretty easily. Keep up the great content to the both and we’ll keep tuning in. 😀
It was a nice video, really enjoyed you and Rick playing. But Grant I could watch your smooth and powerful swing over and over. It’s a thing of beauty!
Even two completely different caliber golfers, that feeling when you finally hit that good shot and think “it’s in there. I know it’s in there!” I just live the high ceiling that golf has. It’s both frustrating and beautiful.
God I love watching the boys play some golf ! My boy Grant was on one off the Tees this vid! Keep up the great content boys ! I need the next RUclips tournament to be Grant,Rick,FP,George Bryan & MadJack !!!!! Please make it happen
Brilliant video, brilliant colab with grant! Loving the smooth slow backswing as well - ball striking from Rick on point. Loving all these collabs recently with the America boys giving the channel a different vibe👏🏻
Didn't think it was possible but Grant's swing is looking even better. The changes Rick has made seem to be working for him. Lots of quality shots... excellent content 👌
I’m half way thru and seeing the future…Grant is soon to be #2 behind only Rick. The level of respect, poise, skill, knowledge & quality content is unmatched. Look forward to years of this duo ahead.
Great video, Grants swing is just so smooth 🔥Rick played really well, just completely let down by his putting, some lovely iron shots going on👌 Top content!
I love the wuestions grant was asking Rick in the cart on the way round, really insightful, genuine questions which you don’t see much anywhere else on RUclips
This was good insight into your guys' thoughts while playing and what kind of mechanics you guys work on from guys who know what they're talking about. This is the kind of golf people can learn from.
Rick, I have noticed your swing has changed. You are no longer too much arms and handsy. You are so much more consistent with your approach shots to the green. Ball striking and distance control are so much improved! Wow, great job! I can see that you have really been working on your game. Sincerely, David G.
Great vid . like how you walk through your shots, your thought process in everything making things as simple as possible to then hitting great golf shots
I'm a big fan of both Grant and Rick for many different reasons, great to see them playing together again, Grant is a great golfer with a great attitude and beautiful swing and also fun to watch. Rick is a great guy and although his putting was off today, his golf swing is looking a whole lot better, has really slowed down the takeaway, much better tempo I think. He'll be back to his best in no time I'm sure... Keep working hard at it Rick, we all love to see you play well and are rooting for ya.
Greeting from Montréal , Canada. Love this video. Very relaxing. The way Rick was putting on the front I suggest to do like me and learn to swear in French !😂 Great video again!
So many great videos to come! This is just the start 😉
Rick hi
Swing looking much smoother Rick!
@rick, is it just me or is your backswing slower? Seems so much more controlled. I'm only 10min into this video and already loving it. Great job fellers.
Epic Collaboration! 🏌
Can’t wait to see my two favorite true golf YT channels collaborate in these videos to come

@@FRIDAYLXVEi don’t get it wtf does adderall have to do with anything?
Grant slow rolling Rick on a move to Florida was a magical sales pitch
I have to get out of Chicago. Amazing city with great golf courses. Arguably the best summer city and summer weather. However, it’s unplayable for 6 months and my game regresses.

grant rick rolled rick? 😂
@@seancunningham4462LMAO
Never gonna give...you...up@@seancunningham4462
Grant's tempo is contagious. Rick seemed to adopt it in this and his swing is looking silky.
Exactly what I was thinking, Rick shoots bad golf when his swing tempo gets fast.
Sort of looks like his swing from 3-4 years ago
Loved Grant’s commentary, you can hear a lot of admiration in his voice and it’s clear he wants Rick to perform. Loved this!
Mate, he most of all needs Rick to perform if the content going to be anything special. I actually think he is playing pretty soft (here and there) to spare Rick from a real humiliation.
With that said. Rick does perform way better than expected.
I’m only a few holes in but Rick is lookin good out there! Break 75 today? 😅
@@ExbotHeroYeah seemed like Grant blew a few holes in the middle to keep it sorta within reach. Looked like he easily could’ve shot -3 on that round
@@gators9570 👍
@@ExbotHero 100% right, he needs Rick to not shoot 10 over.
Found this through Rick's channel. Grant is a superb golfer. Great ball striking and zero blowup holes.
Great to see Rick’s takeaway a bit slower than his normal. Looks like it is giving him a bit more consistency and confidence. Love the video and how much would all of us pay to have Grant’s golf swing. It’s a thing of Beauty!
Came to say the same thing. The past few months tempo has been his biggest issue
And not worrying about shaping shots.
One of the best YT golf vids in quite some time. Great dynamic between you two. Clearly a mutual respect here.
The golf content with Rick has been amazing over the last month. I love to see Grant and Rick collabing!
Grant I've never seen your swing and your tempo so in sync, it's fun to watch
Have been looking forward to this one. Not easy to go head to head with Grant “the king of swing” Horvat, but Rick’s swing is looking so much better than a few weeks ago. His backswing tempo is way calmer and better and it’s paying off. Love this content 🙌🏻
He needs to thank Grant for the lesson before the round but too much ego for
that!
@@psilver063maybe he did and it isn’t on camera. So maybe you shouldn’t say ignorant things :)
I think playing with all the young guns has given Rick a little kick in the ass to get his game back up there. Love to see it.
He literally says in the video he had a on course coaching session with James Robinson.
Swng still looks very quick compared to someone like Grant, but that just may his style?
Ricks slow takeaway has improved his strike MASSIVELY 🙌🏻🙌🏻
That one video where he was topping every shot made me mad
@@samiam7821 would like if someone could put the two swings side by side.. @RickshielsPGA
yeah he's no longer rolling his wrists open on the takeaway. Lot less forearm rotation thru impact
Was thinking the same thing. You can tell him playing with Grant who is so silky smooth has really helped him slow it down. The misses to the right are when he gets a little too slow. He relies on timing as his arms need to match his body and they can get flippy through impact. I’d like to see him with an even more strong left grip so he can’t flip it left
@@markmcdonald6459 yeah very true! The first few holes he was a different player, there’s a difference between smooth and slow for sure!

Just copy and paste. Him and George Bryan.
@@TripodianTT no matter how it looks, george is 10x better ball striker than grant. grant is a phenomenal golfer but would never make it on tour
So much fun to watch these two guys play. Rick and Grant both are amazing guys and so much fun to watch them play together !! Keep creating these videos !!
Grant is my favorite RUclips golfer to watch. Such a smooth swing
Thanks wade!
A couple of gentlemen who really love the game of golf. These two together is great content
3 holes in and I'm thinking you gave Rick a lesson before you started. A much slower back swing and smoother down swing from him and it's the best I've seem him hit the ball. If only his putting had matched the rest of his game. Grant, your swing is, as ever, the purest there is. 👏👏
Regarding his swing, make sure to listen to the podcast episode :)
My thoughts exactly lol
His swing was slower some years ago. It looks good.
Rick’s tempo change is soooo
Noticeable. Good for you brother.
Easily the best Ive seen Rick play and that sad thing is he was upset about every shot simply because he was behind Grant,.
That was a fun watch. Grant swing is so butter.
Love Grant, love Rick.. to put it simply, this is EPIC!
Grant man, thanks for the 18 holes stroke play! Love all your content but I always think this is the purest format. Thanks to you and your team for all the hard work so we can enjoy!
First tee round of applause was brilliant, looking forward to these videos
Such an underrated channel. This is truly some of the best golf content on the tube. I pray you keep growing and doing your thing. Such a blessing.
Really enjoy watching these cross-atlantic matches with our UK brothers. We are different, but there are so many similarities as well. Loving the content Grant!
We were born free 🇺🇸
@@SpeedzyWGJKSo the Brits aren't? What's you're point exactly? Why is there always someone who ruins a nice comment with divisive political bs?!
2 of the best to ever do it, watched Rick for years. Love the uplifting spirit of Grant, always extracting and highlighting the good points.
You can add Rick and Grant’s ages together . . . and I’d still easily be their Senior . . . yet I love watching them share their gifts and “love of the game” I turned to late in life. These two gentlemen are my absolute favorite male golfers . . . Iona takes my admiration for the gals.
Thanks for sharing your time on the “Links” with us!!! Wonderful match indeed!!!
Loving the RUclips golf mashups! Rick is my boy! Welcome to the UK, @grant
Rick’s tempo looks so much better in this video than it has for a long time. Great to see him coming onto his game. Hope he can keep it going and get even better.
Two of the best personalities in RUclips golf!
Love the comments about coaching. Even the best growing business owners, managers and executives have coaches now-a-days for those reasons!
Grant you are a pure beauty! Would love to see you get some content up in Canada next summer!
Really liking the look of Rick's swing lately. Love the backswing tempo he has adapted, used to be a little quick before. Never looked so good in my opinion! Great match!
In the 2. hole drive it's easy to spot Rick's new swing thought. Way better backswing. Lot less wrist action and better tempo.
Rick was the first Golftuber I subscribed to, I've waiting so long for him to do all these videos with everyone else. The golf community is absolutely amazing.
Of all the recent collaborations, this is a beaut. Both players dialled in, looking forward to the release of the rest of the content
Grant seeing your swing is ridiculous. It's soothing. I need you to teach me. So much power with such smoothness.

Really really loved the colab with Grant and Rick. They both played well and the vibes were off the charts. Thanks guys.
Just terrific content from Grant and Rick. We get to see the good, the bad, the ugly, and the spectacular! This is golf at its most entertaining 🔥❤👍
Just nothing but positivity. Hands down my two favorite golfers on RUclips.
Love to hear that Chris
Both class acts - Grant clearly throwing shots to keep it semi close. What a player. Rick looking much better though!
Grant, you're the best. Appreciate all the hardwork,long hours of thinking about content that you put yourself through. Keep going mate Love from Sydney Australia
Great video.. Still think you and Garrett 18 holes reunion would be fire. Like em both.
Shout out to Grant and Rick! Amazing round loved it learned from it and looking forward to the next!! Thanks boys!
Great content lads. 2 of most genuinely nice RUclips golfers out there. Keep up the good work🙏🏌♂️👏👏👏👏👏
Ok ok how did you get Ricky to FINALLY slow his swing down ?
Been screaming for him to do so for the last 2 years 😂
Two absolute titans butting heads and going at it - love it. Looking forward to more videos. Great to see Grant over in the UK!
Yes…I lost my luggage and golf clubs again haha
FIRST
rip
You look exhausted!! Didn't hurt the enjoyment factor for the video one bit tho!
How many times is that in the last year, ridiculous
At this point I’m pretty sure there’s a black market business that sells golf clubs of RUclips influencers.
I see Ricks backswing had slowed down a bunch and it’s working really well. Same thing I had to do last week. Love the videos!
The chemistry between you two is amazing! Such a fun video to watch.
Rick is a true pioneer and gentleman. He has actually paved the way for so many RUclips golfers. Love watching Rick and Grant doing some content together.

No way, I honestly played the PGA today, 93!! (18HC)
Awesome seeing you guys playing it. Such a great course.
Actually the best I’ve seen Rick hit it in ages. Putting off, but he should be proud of breaking 80 after this years golf.
Even two completely different caliber golfers, that feeling when you finally hit that good shot and think “it’s in there. I know it’s in there!” I just live the high ceiling that golf has. It’s both frustrating and beautiful.
It’s a great feeling when you are hitting good shots.
Great video Grant! Still waiting for a Good Good collab, but this still a good collab.
its a good day when daddy Grant uploads
grant swing so pure every time my swing is off i look at grant swing and it fix it !
One of the worst putts in RUclips history I’m sorry Rick 😂😂 56:30
