There are several things for how to improve your golf Practise your golf swing in slow motion Position your feet correctly Learn the best body posture (I read these and the reasons they work from Gavs golf tactic site )
Rick Shiels Golf thanks Rick! At the end of last season when I was playing regularly, I was scoring better, so I’m hoping to break 80 again this year. I’ve only shot in the 70’s twice before and the last time was about 25 years ago.
@@MichaelWBauer very true I drive the pick and love it when someone can hit me haha! scare me sometimes but keeps me awake when I'm out there for an hour
Rick from playing 3 months of playing the sport i went from 130 score on my first day to 82 today,all from watching yours and only your vids :) thanks so much for sharing your knowledge :)
I hadn't played golf in 20 years. Gave it up at 14. Someone showed me this channel and I've gotten the fever and some great advice. Best part, shooting rounds with my dad for hours. Went from 40 over in 18 to 15 over in 2 months and loving every moment of it. Great content Rick!!!!
@@joshuaking1194 Me three. So much has changed and all this super tech. I've updated my woods, but will always play the blades with which I learned to work the ball (when balls were balata covered and rubber wound of course). I hope range balls aren't as rock hard as they used to be.
When I started practicing like I played I got better. Hit like you’re playing a round of golf. Driver, 5 iron. Driver 7 iron. 3 wood pitching wedge. I’d also try to remember the anxiety of the first tee and hit balls feeling nervous. That really helped me. What a great video !!!
I know this video is a little old, but Ricks channel … even the old stuff .. has motivated me back into golf after 20 years. I was a decent golfer back in the day, and now that life has slowed down, now seems like the perfect time to pick the clubs back up. Best golf channel on UA-cam.
I just had my most productive practice session ever. This video really clicked for me, in particular the part where you spend time on something you’ve been working on “without worrying about the result”. I consistently strike the ball heel side of center and it exacerbates my tendency to hit a push/fade. I slowed down and focused on hitting the ball toe side, regardless of the result, and by the end of the session i was able to move back to center and consistently hit the ball in the middle of the face. I was hitting high draws by the end of the bucket!
I have been enjoying your videos... as an osteopath, passionate golfer who is also treating professional golfers, I would like to see a video which includes a full warm up routine. I have been seeing golfers over years, not warming up, injuring themselves. I would appreciate considering the amount of people/golfers following you... if you could give us a short video on a full warm up routine. Thanks!, Chris
I really enjoy these tips. I just recently got into golfing and couldn’t even get off the tee box, just broke 100 for the first time. I’ve only played 3 full 18 holes ever… not good but I’ve definitely improved from these tips.
Keep at it. I just started playing last year and was over 100 the entire first season. I broke 100 my second time out this year, and now near the end of the summer I'm well under 90 with my sights on 80. It's a really fun game and very satisfying when you hit a shot exactly the way you intended to.
So I got back into golf after watching your videos for a few months. First round back was my lowest ever. Keep in mind it’s still not good but just the few tips worked for me, especially with driver.
Started watching Rick last year to help with my slice, haven’t stopped watching since! Can’t wait for the snow to finish melting in Alberta so I can get out on the course.
Great stuff , I also image some of the holes on my local coarse so would try and hit 450 yards , Driver then say five iron followed by a short chip . Then a shorter 190 par 3
Practice makes perfect is wrong. Perfect practice helps make perfect is correct and these drills help accomplish that. Thanks Rick. Getting back into golf after 16 yrs and many surgeries and your videos have been very helpful.
Brother....you've changed everything about how i approach the game. I don't have the luxury of playing as much as I'd like to ....but when i am able to get on the course.... i enjoy it so much more...i "hear" u in my ear..... you have a great demeanor....great camera presence and speak with clarity and confidence. I really, really, appreciate ur tips and ur channel. 💯👊👊 Sandro. Bolton Ontario. Canada
You've really convinced me to get back I to golf. I lost interest as i didn't have the confidence, but now I feel I have picked up some great tips to use
Great video, I’ve been doing that exact practice routine for years now. It’s the motor learning benefit of random versus block practice. Another good variation is to take a scorecard from a course and actually play the holes just at the range. Base your shots off the results of your strike. Estimate your drive and calculate your second shot etc.
This is one of your very best videos. I think out there, there are lots of us club golfers that go to the range without any plan and come away with nothing.
I watched this then went to the range, started with the SquareStrike Wedge, then the C3i Wedge, then some Forward Press Wedge, then Cleveland Smart Sole Wedge, then some iRT-5 Iron Hybrids, some GX7 Hybrid shots, then moved onto the big boy, the A14 Auto Pilot Driver. It was a great session, thanks Rick.
Top advice from Rick Shiels giving some direction to range sessions. One of the most important things is to get the most from your practice so having some structure as Rick suggests is top advice!
This may be the first video I have seen devoted to this subject AND with an example of how to split up the practice session. Really a very simple and informative video, but one of the best videos ever. Thank you so much for doing this one. It will help out thousands of golfers.
Stand Infront of a plasterboard wall and see how many balls you make go through it.... And bonus, the wife will be pleased that you're practicing at home and not out the course :)
Great stuff Rick. Hoping to get across to The Prairie and practice like this soon...when I'm feeling up to it. Been ill for 2 and a half years. Watching great content like this is keeping my spirits up with the hope of being well enough to get back on the course at some point 👍👍👍
Rick you're easily the best channel for golf on here. I've learned so much already and I can't wait to see some improvement in 2020! Keep up the good work my man!
I imagine I’m playing a par 5. And score it. So if I hit a lovely drive I have an easy 7 then say a 50 yard lob. If I slice the drive I have to draw a 5iron. If I blow the iron I have a tight target and have maybe an 120 yard 7 punch. Score it birdie bogey par chance etc
I do something similar. I like to ‘play’ the course I grew up on in my head. Based on how well or poorly I hit it I can usually get an accurate distance for the next shot from playing that course so many times. Helps to mix up clubs and shots.
This is a now a top 10 favorite video for me. I've been wondering for a while how to practice at the range effectively. This gives my time there structure instead of just randomly hitting balls. Thanks Rick, great video.
Horrible last balls crush my spirit. If my second to last is good, I just chuck the final one to a young kid and say, "Here, looks like you need this". (I just hit a little pitch.)
When you got about 10 balls left if you hit a sweet sweet ball just stop and go to the bar. You will remember that last shot till the next time you swing. No reason to hit 8 great balls then turf the last 2 in frustration.
Only been playing for exactly a year so these vids help me big time,I'm 37yrs old so would like to be playing some decent golf by the time I'm 40 and I'm progressing at a steady pace.But I've not had a single lesson and have learnt everything by watching UA-cam golfers like yourself.
U guys don't have indoor or outdoor heated driving ranges? I've got one 6mins from me. It's really not bad! I just generally wear a hood and even take it off at times.
I understand totally. I was driving balls in my my practice net, out site in the drive way at -8oC ( 18 oF) last week. Another 2 months of snow before seing some grass.
Richard Badish Well it’s tough when it rains 3 inches and here where I live in gets 10 degrees with high winds. Plus, my indoor golf in half an hour away and is 50 bucks an hour. Tough 😝
@@Micter damn! That's outrageous! My range is outdoors with individual stalls and is heated. The biggest bucket which is approximately 150 balls is only 15$! I feel for you bud!
I'm a student and a new golfer who's got into the games largely due to my friends and your videos. I'm now trying to build my bag up and get better. Great tips for me, especially as someone trying to improve. Thanks Rick
globalgolf.com get some game improvement irons. I picked up some taylormade M2's in pretty good condition for $230. they have great deals and you can choose the condition of club you want, so you can play with your money budget
Such good advice. Been out of practice for roughly 5 years and just recently have had the time to pick up the game again. In the past few months your videos have helped my game exponentially.
Rick I love your Channel, I love your Videos. I´m "playing" golf now for a year and I love it. I´m far away to be a confort player, but every time I go to the course I feel good. And with your videos I get everey time a little bit better. I have watch some other Golf channels befor in germen language, becourse i´m from austria. BUT, for me, you are my number one Golf UA-cam Channel. And I understand everything what you try to teach us and can also implement it on the golf course. Thank you so much for your first class videos and I'm looking forward to the next video of you! Schönes Spiel!
5 minutes in and learnt 2 things I have got lazy with ,now I have got older swing warm up and a bit of short game at home ,before getting to course and playing comp etc. main thing I practice is keeping draw shot up to scratch .rick has improved my game about 3/4 shots cheers.
Been to the range this morning and tried to practise 3 different things. 50-60-70 yrds PW swing feelings 5/6 irons draw shots 3 wood again draw shots Had a very productive time and ended up feeling a difference in my swing. Started drawing the 5iron so very pleased. Thanks for advice, appreciate all the videos.
So thankful for this channel, I’ve been golfing for 15 years and just now started dramatically improving my game with your tips. I had never beaten my dad at golf and now I’ve crushed him the past four rounds. Can’t wait to keep getting better, you deserve 5 million man!
My local range has installed toptracer, and I have really found that playing the simulated courses has really helped my game. I cycle through the clubs in my bag like I would on the course, the “chip putting” has dramatically increased my 40 yard pitch accuracy, and it’s just plain fun!
I’ve been doing this sort of thing more and more recently, and I’ve found myself having a really fun time! I feel like I am improving as well. Can’t wait to get out on the course the coming week to see if I can translate it there!
I go from 9 iron to 7 too, then 5 iron then hybrids then driver 👌🏼 end with wedge play usually. Great video Rick your a golf legend on UA-cam for sure 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I'm fairly new to golf this is my second year that I've taken it as more then a day with the boys. It has now become a joke in my circle that when anyone asks for advice our advice is always the same we answer "Rick sheils" lol. Thanks for all the tips I owe you a drink sir for the ones I've won on your training. Cheers
Love your video's last time I hit a golf ball I was 14 never held a club since then over 50 now watched you and bought a set of starter's club's in a BOX love the inspiration thanks.
Saw the original video on Facebook and Had my best practise at the range following this structure, usually end up hitting driver with the last 30 balls to took the 3 iron out of the bag and hit 10 fades, 10 stingers and attempted 10 draws. Cheers rick
Omg...i did this the other day without even watching this video. I was focusing on alot on my setup working on grip. It felt like my best time ever at a driving range. I used a good amount of different clubs and i found even my confidence on irons that i don't use all the time go actually up.
I am a 4 handicap and watching you seems to make me need to rethink my sessions. You make perfect sense to me. Will be very helpful to break my range sessions down. I don't get many. Love tour videos and keep it going. I give a thumbs up 10x over on this video!
love your tips and tricks Rick. i only just picked up a set of clubs and hit my first ball about 6 weeks ago. After subscribing to you and watching loads of your videos i have finally been able to par a par 3 and par 5 yesterday. WOOHOO!!! Now totally addicted. Thanks again and luv the accent lol
Great video. I always try to practice with a point to it as well. I see people all day at the golf course I work at just go to the range and bang out balls hitting them with zero purpose and wonder why their game doesn’t improve. I try to spend 1/2 hour to 45 practicing my chipping and putting and on the range I also pick out targets to aim at.
Just getting into golf as my 8 year old son got interested in it. Going for lessons but this video is awesome. If only I watched this yesterday before going to the range.
i have been looking for something like this thanks rick. i was just going and woking on the technical portion of this for hours. i think this will help a lot
Ya know, Rick hits the ball with so much ease and hits so many good shots during these videos. When he hits a bad shot, it actually encourages me because, ..... knowing no matter how much I ever improve I can make a miss. Kinda makes me relax.
Leaps and bounds! Under 1 yr shooting around 100, thanks to you! Never had a lesson or the opportunity to play with really advanced players, But closer and closer i inch forward and that's thanks to applied practice after watching your channel. Drill,drill and drill! Thank you honestly, your platform has given a personalized approach to a (sport) I never thought held water. Thank you and god bless
This is your best instructional video by far in my opinion. I think everyone should get lessons first, then using your method on this video, have a great session at the range. Awesome vid Rick nice work
Oh this is great, I do this so I'm glad to know I'm on track. A couple of other elements that I have added is I will bring a scorecard to the range and play it as around of golf. The other thing I try doing is those awkward shots where you have to turn your club upside down, toe down from left and right stance to resemble being up against the tree or have a unfavourable lie. I remember the first time I was doing this somebody walked by and said " Sr, I think you need a lesson you're hitting the club all wrong" lol. Thanks for all you posts!
Been lookin' through your videos at random and always seem to dig up something really useful. I'm taking this one with me to the driving range tomorrow and honestly i'm really excited to try something new for my practice.

Thank you Rick .. same to you mate :) I'll be trying to shoot my age or better from the senior tees. I'm 71 so its possible.. :)
If you’re not aiming for the cleanup cart guy at least 5 times you’re practicing wrong

"That's gone miles right." Should be my golf motto.
Mine is, "lying 2 and now hitting 3 off the tee."
Lmao. Same. I aim at hole 2 fairway to hit hole 1s. Lol

Had a very productive time and ended up feeling a difference in my swing. Started drawing the 5iron so very pleased.
Thanks for advice, appreciate all the videos.
He's a great instructor. Fun to watch. Teaching a timeless skill for all ages. Very entertaining and professional. Everybody is different
Great video, super efficient use of time at range - well done !
You are just a gem. I’m so glad i found your Channel. You have improved my game tremendously. Shot my all time low June 5th. And 83 on a 71 course
maybe the vest advice I've ever seen - thanks rick - golf has become even more fun since I discovered your vids
Rick Shields thank you so much for all your videos. You’ve helped me improve my game so much, I’m grateful.
These are the types of videos that help me get through Canadian winters! So many things to practice in the spring!!
Just another awesome video from ricks trying to help us get better at golf. There is always a scope for improvement. Thanks ricks.
So thankful for this channel, I’ve been golfing for 15 years and just now started dramatically improving my game with your tips. I had never beaten my dad at golf and now I’ve crushed him the past four rounds. Can’t wait to keep getting better, you deserve 5 million man!
My local range has installed toptracer, and I have really found that playing the simulated courses has really helped my game. I cycle through the clubs in my bag like I would on the course, the “chip putting” has dramatically increased my 40 yard pitch accuracy, and it’s just plain fun!
recently come back to golf as my son is now interested, your videos are brilliant and very informative thanks and keep them coming Rick
I’ve been doing this sort of thing more and more recently, and I’ve found myself having a really fun time! I feel like I am improving as well. Can’t wait to get out on the course the coming week to see if I can translate it there!
I go from 9 iron to 7 too, then 5 iron then hybrids then driver 👌🏼 end with wedge play usually. Great video Rick your a golf legend on UA-cam for sure 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I'm fairly new to golf this is my second year that I've taken it as more then a day with the boys. It has now become a joke in my circle that when anyone asks for advice our advice is always the same we answer "Rick sheils" lol. Thanks for all the tips I owe you a drink sir for the ones I've won on your training. Cheers
Love your video's last time I hit a golf ball I was 14 never held a club since then over 50 now watched you and bought a set of starter's club's in a BOX love the inspiration thanks.
Saw the original video on Facebook and Had my best practise at the range following this structure, usually end up hitting driver with the last 30 balls to took the 3 iron out of the bag and hit 10 fades, 10 stingers and attempted 10 draws. Cheers rick
Just did this routine yesterday as closely as possible and got a quality session that showed improvement
Omg...i did this the other day without even watching this video. I was focusing on alot on my setup working on grip. It felt like my best time ever at a driving range. I used a good amount of different clubs and i found even my confidence on irons that i don't use all the time go actually up.
I am a 4 handicap and watching you seems to make me need to rethink my sessions. You make perfect sense to me. Will be very helpful to break my range sessions down. I don't get many. Love tour videos and keep it going. I give a thumbs up 10x over on this video!
This video has me itching for the end of the cold weather and the start of golf season!!!!!!!!
love your tips and tricks Rick. i only just picked up a set of clubs and hit my first ball about 6 weeks ago. After subscribing to you and watching loads of your videos i have finally been able to par a par 3 and par 5 yesterday. WOOHOO!!! Now totally addicted. Thanks again and luv the accent lol
Great video. I always try to practice with a point to it as well. I see people all day at the golf course I work at just go to the range and bang out balls hitting them with zero purpose and wonder why their game doesn’t improve. I try to spend 1/2 hour to 45 practicing my chipping and putting and on the range I also pick out targets to aim at.
Just getting into golf as my 8 year old son got interested in it. Going for lessons but this video is awesome. If only I watched this yesterday before going to the range.
This has made my practice lessons way better now can improve on the range and actually do something thanks so much rick you have changed my golf game
Great to have some new routines to make the most of the time at the driving range. Especially at the moment when all the local courses are underwater!
Thanks for the tips! 100 balls...got it!
Greatest golf content on UA-cam!
Just started golfing and your videos are hands down the most helpful. Thank you!
i have been looking for something like this thanks rick. i was just going and woking on the technical portion of this for hours. i think this will help a lot
Ya know, Rick hits the ball with so much ease and hits so many good shots during these videos. When he hits a bad shot, it actually encourages me because, ..... knowing no matter how much I ever improve I can make a miss. Kinda makes me relax.
Leaps and bounds!
Under 1 yr shooting around 100, thanks to you!
Never had a lesson or the opportunity to play with really advanced players,
But closer and closer i inch forward and that's thanks to applied practice after watching your channel. Drill,drill and drill!
Thank you honestly, your platform has given a personalized approach to a (sport)
I never thought held water.
Thank you and god bless
This is your best instructional video by far in my opinion. I think everyone should get lessons first, then using your method on this video, have a great session at the range. Awesome vid Rick nice work
Oh this is great, I do this so I'm glad to know I'm on track. A couple of other elements that I have added is I will bring a scorecard to the range and play it as around of golf. The other thing I try doing is those awkward shots where you have to turn your club upside down, toe down from left and right stance to resemble being up against the tree or have a unfavourable lie. I remember the first time I was doing this somebody walked by and said " Sr, I think you need a lesson you're hitting the club all wrong" lol. Thanks for all you posts!
Been lookin' through your videos at random and always seem to dig up something really useful. I'm taking this one with me to the driving range tomorrow and honestly i'm really excited to try something new for my practice.
