Hi I’m Rick Shiels, welcome to my channel RickShielsPGAGolf. This UA-cam 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.
My fade game is top tier. Every ball flies to the right without trying.
This is also the issue I have. Then, when I aim left to counteract the fade, I hit the ball as straight as can be 🤷♂️
@@srl4050 💯💯🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤣🤣
LMAO
Same here
Is there a way to learn this power?
If anyone is wondering how to slice it 20 yards right of the fairway let me know, I'll get you some tutorial footage.
Lol
easy tip to draw or fade: try to hit it straight. it will draw or fade! TRIED AND TESTED
I can hit both of these shots quite often. Just don’t know which one is coming….
My problem too. Every other club I draw it.
That's still impressive, I cant even hit a draw by accident.
Haha well said
@@jongalt6837 I’m the opposite. Everything is a draw (or at times a hook). An occasional PUSH right but never a slice.
😂😂lmao
Rick, you totally changed my game over the last couple years. I only ever watch your videos when I need golf tips. I went from shooting 100 on average to hitting low 80's consistently. Thank you!!
Heck, I can usually score in the 80s no problem, but then it's time to move on to the back 9
Rick, if you see this I just want you to know your videos have helped me go from shooting over 100 to consistently shooting in the 90's in a matter of months. You're doing amazing work, thank you!
That’s awesome well done 👏
Me: watching videos of drawing and fading
Me on the golf course: how do I even hit the driver straight?
Right haha
Hi Rick. Thanks for the great vids. Played this past weekend and shot 91 after consistently hitting over 110. My playing partners couldn't believe it. I watch you and Peter Finch exclusively.
Rick you should do a ball test between the pro v1 and the prov1 PRACTICE golf ball. Always wanted to see if there was a difference!
Guys plotting to rob a driving range lmao
the practice ones are probably harder than a actual one. that way they can last longer
@@dandegasperis7457 well I saw some practice pro v1s at Walmart for 12 bucks
It is literally the exact same ball just that it has a flaw in the painting.
"Pro V1 Practice golf balls are conforming products that differ only due to a cosmetic blemish such as paint, ink, or registration of stamping. Pro V1 Practice golf balls do not have any construction or performance deficiencies."
Teo Kern: You should do a search on UA-cam.
He already did that test last year.
Yes. UA-cam DOES have a search option, ya know.
I just need the draw since i can slice!
Me: Watching a video how to fade or draw with your driver
Also me: Automatically drawing or fading the balls when trying to hit a straight shot
From what I know: you're always gonna hit a little draw/fade, the scale of this should ofcourse become smaller when you're trying to hit it straight but it will still occur. You probably have a "natural flight" so a draw or a fade
I have a natural fade. The all fades into the rough
Tip. As a long time strong fader borderline slicer with my driver. There were 3 things I changed.
1. Found a routine for initial driver set-up. Get your driver in position first then set your stance up
2. Make sure your shaft is strait..not leaning forward of the ball. This causes slice. That helped a lot.
3. Dropped my backfoot back slightly less than an inch.
Result. Last 16 of 18 drives have been down the middle either strait or with a slight fade or slight draw.
Slicing*
I'm finally in a place where I strike the ball (relatively) consistently enough that I can start thinking about shaping a shot instead of just praying I hit it well enough to go towards the general direction of the flag.
Rick,
I am hopeful that you will read this. As a senior, and brand new golfer, I had 6 lessons from a pro. He saw that my natural drive is a draw, and he was pleased with that. It could be why he didn’t teach me the fade shot. I have played twice so far, and practice at the range. My drives have been inconsistent, but good ones go about 210-230 yards, either perfectly straight or with a draw. But today, I practiced the fade using everything you taught me. I could not be happier with the results. After a few boo boos, I started hitting every single one well past the 200 yard flag. They were ALL perfect fades, carrying to the target about 240-250 yards. The course I am learning at has very narrow fairways, so I will be using the fade shot now. I can’t wait! Thank you for this lesson. This is a HUGE step in the right direction. Hey new golfers, you need to pay attention to this lesson and practice it!
Another great, really informative video. Great job with the graphics and breaking it all down in a way that a golfer of moderate skill can understand. The graphics are really helpful as well. I've watched pretty much all of the other mainstream instructional golf channels on youtube and for whatever reason Rick's lessons always seems to make sense right off the break, without having to watch them half a dozen times.
I was slicing my ball for a few months and after watching a few of your videos and especially this one, I can now call my shots and confidently hit a draw or fade, cheers Rick! Still a few things to iron out but we move
Watching this tutorial is so helpful! It may be 2 years old, but it is still so helpful, changed my game for better! Thank you RS!
My fade always ends up on the fairway, just not the one im playing tho lol
Finally getting a consistent fade with my driver . Feels just as you described. Now I’ll work on that draw
Off topic, but anyone who enjoys Podcasts.. or Has never listened to them. I highly recommended Rick’s! I started listening the other day, and I am hooked!
my fade and draw game is so good that i can make the ball start out straight and then go really really left or right :)
jokes on you I already fade my golf shot (even if I don’t want to) 🥲🥲🥲
jokes aside, thanks for the tips!
Rick, you should do a video on why almost all beginner/amateur golfers naturally hit slice/fade. Is it alignment? Club face? Swing path? Etc.
Usually people swing over the top and have a weak left hand grip (right handed players).
Weak left hand grip. For sure.
Thanks rick so much I’m playing 18 holes tomorrow and this will help me so much
Wow Rick is spending a lot of time at St. Andrew's !!!!
I can't blame him. Its a special place!!!!🏌️♂️⛳
By far the best fade and draw tutorial on UA-cam. Thanks!
The sound off that Ping G425 when you stripe it 😳😬. Great vid as always!
My favorite instructor..............hes understandable !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is it only me or someone else is watching to counter their fades/slices 🥲
😂 yup
Saved. Will be practicing this next range session
The diagram of body alignment, target line, and club face really helped me out! Thanks Rick!
I'm starting to learn shot shaping after being able to hit my clubs straight. I will definitely try this next time.
I can do every shot shape. Just not sure what ones coming out.
Thanks for all the tips Rick. Been following you for a year now and you've helped my game so much. Thanks from the USA!
I love your content, bro. So helpful!
Rick, you make it look so easy, I guess that’s why you’re pro. If I could just get the club face the way you explained it should be, then I could most likely hit both shots but, I always come through impact with just a little bit open face and if I try to correct it, I end up closed face and hit it to the left, so now I have to swing inside out just to get it from going right. Would love to see a video on how to control the club face from opening or closing. Great video Rick, as always.
For me, practicing with a closed face helps because it forces you to rotate your body more, get the handle forward, and get your hands out of it. I literally will set up with the club 25° closed and swing and just rotate hard holding the face off. It's a good drill for me at least
Hey Rick I’m an 18 year old whose recently got into golf and just had my first lesson. It has become aware to me the difference good clubs can make. My current set is probably worth about £50 over all (irons, pitching wedge and a driver). They aren’t very good quality. Do you have any tips on where to get good value clubs, or any change of a giveaway?
Rick your tutorial with Dan Grieve on chipping was fantastic,loved it helped alot,
This has really helped a lot!! I have found that if I open or close the club face a bit too much I get a straight pull or a push though, so I have to very intentional, but it works!
Another saved Rick Shiels video in my phone. I pull Rick's videos out on the range more often than I probably should 😆
This was great. Short, simple and very good tutorial all in all. This guy golfs!
Thank you. I have been trying these tips out. Using your simple tips for drawing the ball I have noticed a big improvement. But rather than hitting a draw that starts right and comes back to the center, I hit a pull which goes straight down the middle.... AND 25 yards farther than my typical drive! (Typical drive is a weak spinny fade that is in the fairway, but short.)
Same as mine
It’s wild the effect you’ve had on my game. I’m a very visual learner and these graphics are spot on what I need. Played my first round ever about 4 months ago and shot a miraculous 116. Just played my 18th round ever and scored a 77 on a par 72. All thanks to you and your videos. Seriously thank you dude. Took me from a +30 HCP to a +9.4 I can hardly believe it myself. I went from being completely unable to strike my irons, to lacing them fairly nicely. Now to get shot shaping down and I’m set.
Good video with simple, conservative, tweaks to accomplish the shots. The only additional features I would have liked to have discussed are the follow throughs/finishes with the arms & hands. Higher hands finishing around the neck to fade, and lower hands around the lower outside shoulder to draw. Those two components are also very useful for these shot shapes and very simple to implement. 🍻
Thanks for all your tip videos dude. Helps a ton. 🙏🏼
This is like watching Gordon Ramsay cooking an excellent meal, I'd get inspired, go to the kitchen and prepare myself a plate of something not even my dog wants to eat... but hey, at least I had fun doing it.
Great tips, Rick. Thanks. I really enjoy producing these shapes when needed during a round. The only key difference for me is that I tee the ball higher for fades and lower for draws - just works better for my swing...perhaps for others too...I would suggest experimenting and find what works better for each person.
Great video!
Question though ( and it’s for anyone who reads it )
“Do any of you change your grip from weak to strong and vice versa when hitting fades or draws”?
Personally the grip change for me aids in being able to shape shots, in the way that slot of the time having the grip one way or the other provokes the swing shape…
Please share your thoughts, I’d love any feedback
yes i was taught that way, strengthen your grip to lose the fade, and strengthen even more to draw the ball
love you rick thx for your vids loce them keep it up
Liked the forearm tip. I have a hard time getting the club to turn over. But focusing on the forearms just worked in the few practice shots I took.
great video. I was trying to explain to someone how to draw the ball and this is much simpler.
Thank you. It was short simple and crisp.
Thanks Rick! I didn't know to tee down the ball for a fade.. maybe that is why every time I try to hit one it is very high... Can't wait to try this
Thank you Rick for another helpful video, all of your videos have helped my golf game by a lot
Great tips ... Also, varying degrees of weak grip to strong grip to make the shot shapes more extreme ...
The video ive been NEEDING, Thanks Rick, Outstanding stuff... 🏌️♂️⛳️
Great video Rick. I love how easy you make it look. Can't wait to hit the range in the morning and give it a go.
Always up for a good tip, especially in this area.
Just in time to watch this before the range 👌🏾 Thanks
I want that driver he’s using, that sound is beautiful.
Hey Rick, since you switched to the odyssey big t blade putter, the prices of those have doubled on eBay, glad I got one before you made them popular
I do fade my shots, it’s just never intentional or when I want it haha
In all seriousness, Thank you, Rick. Still working on this on my irons. Much appreciated for all the tips over the years. Cheers 🍻
Same here mate my fade is never intentional but always looks great 😂
Do a video on how to hit the ball next. I really need that lol
You make it look so easy
Nice simple tips to follow.
Another concise and helpful lesson that can easily be practiced.
Simple, great tips, Rick. Thank you. And for me (and other amateurs) if you're not sure how "lined up" you are, use alignment sticks on the range. Basic, but so helpful!
Solid, simple and useful upload. Thanks. I struggle to fade it, so this might help.
Great advice Rick, planning to use it today. Hopefully It is as smooth as yours!!
I got a natural draw I'm learning now to hit the fade thanks Rick for these videos!! Give me a shout if you are ever in Greenville SC
Come play with me in Tennessee! I’m a member at a “blue collar” club, I think a Break 75 would be awesome here! I usually shoot in the mid to low 80s so I’ll try and keep it low for you!
I love the tutorials Rick!
Beautiful draw
Thank you for sharing your tips. Excellent job ✌️, even for us beginners.
Nice video Rick
Simple and clear.
This is cool. Normally, my fade is the ball going straight for 75 yards, then making a right turn.
Thank you for all you’re tips. I’m almost as good as my terrible friends!
Quite the range you've chosen there, Rick!!🔥👏
Quality Rick,you know what your doing..
Finally somebody who makes perfect sense on how to hit 2 popular shots in golf. Very well done.
Can you please do a video on pre shot routine? Thanks and keep up the good work buddy!
nice and simple clear golf lesson.
Great video. Thanks for all the tips!
Guys that slice! Really try to learn this draw. It will help so much with correcting that heavy slice to the point where you will actually be playing straighter shots even when your not trying to shape it
God bro you just fixed my golf swing! 😃
Thanks so much for the tip Rick! I can typically shape my shots with irons with no issue but, shaping the driver is a bit more of a challenge. Will definitely give the fade tip more of a go as the draw is much more natural for me.
Brilliant video Mr Shiels going save this for when I'm next down the range as desperately need to be able to hit both shots on command as cant do it now just goes wherever it goes off club face 👍
Nice back drop. 👌 Great tips
Absolutely love this content RS keep it up!
Good stuff as usual. Keep it up Guy and Rick!
Great tip thank you
You should explain how the grip effects the flight of the ball too. Absolutely love your vlogs!
I like to keep it simple one grip two setups, I have fairly neutral to strong grip and I can hit both shots fade and draw pretty much how Ricks does it in his setup.
Good tips Rick.
Was slicing every ball and tried to hit draws at the range today, every single one went straight as an arrow. You love to see that
I’ve watched this at least 20 times ⛳️
I have the boomerang fade you didn’t cover that gift to golf 😂😂😂
I appreciate your efforts to bring some finesse to a bunch of hackers (judging by the comments). At least you're one Britisher I can understand.
Thanks for posting, Rick. So, does a draw-biased driver promote a draw hit or is it working to save your slice? Another way to ask I guess is does it send the ball to the left? I love your videos. Thanks in advance.
Gonna try this at the range tomorrow
I'm just happy if it goes within 20meters of where I am aiming, distance aside.
Cheers Rick really appreciate the advise great channel keep up the good work need help with putting🤣🤣
