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.
Thanks for all your continued support and all your great questions!
Anyone with any sense knew exactly what was going on in that video. A professional meeting a professional for mutual gain. I watched the whole thing without looking at a comment and didn’t blink, it was exactly as I would have expected. I thought you came across well if anything. When I caught wind of the negativity I couldn’t work out wth was going on! Well done for helping those confused few get a better understanding of real life! I don’t even play golf but love your channels and watch everything enthusiastically. Thanks Rick.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 we can rest easy now Rick 😁😁 PS please put the vid back on the channel now that we understand what u were trying to do 👍🏻
Do what it takes to maintain impartiality. That's why I/we know your reviews are honest and trustworthy. I always check your reviews before making a club purchase. Just do what you do.
Enjoyed this format of video, always found your more “off the cuff” videos/podcasts to be very enjoyable (maybe it’s the Ricky that comes out more?!)
I never watched the Titleist video but thanks for braving up to it as it’ll hopefully end the bore off comments about it. You made a product you weren’t happy with and you removed it- that’s where the story should have started and finished.
Unfortunately the age old story of cheering someone to the top, only to then knock them when they get there rings true.
Thanks for all the content!!
Great video Rick, must say I will miss the break 75 series. Even if you released one every 2 weeks would be good and play with different people in them eg Guy, Robbo etc 👍
Thank you for addressing the Titleist video. That explanation makes sense. Poking holes in a new product is what I want to see so keep up the good work with product reviews
Thanks for watching!
Could return after a product review is out, and show the fitting process, use one of the other Guys from the podcast maybe....
as someone whos watched the video it was somewhere between being a bellend and critically analysing the process - neither was it a good fitting and it also wasnt rick being a jerk
well done mate. we can all learn, I hope you apologised to the titleist fitter. you should create some content to include him in the bear future.😅🎉
This is one of the better videos you've put out recently. I love these "Rick answers " your questions style videos. A monthly version of this would be great. So many questions need answers.
To be completely honest, I really liked the Titleist video. I found it to be refreshingly honest as opposed to most people at a fitting talking about how great/awesome the new model is (even if they dont like it). You didnt have your best swing that day and I prefer that as well. Everyone gets great results when they are swinging well. I want to known how a club performs when im not at my best and I appreciated the honest feedback.
He went to a fitting and decided to hit the ball in a completely different way than he always does and blamed the material when he couldn’t perform.
Absolute shitshow. Not to mention the “I’m all that” attitude 😅
@@JustaMountainbiker I was curious about the fades but I thought he might be in the process of making a swing change. In his position you can't wait until your swing is in good shape to review something or you will miss a lot of releases. We're all free to form our own opinion but I didn't get the, "I'm all that" attitude at all. I thought it was honest feedback rather than the usual influencer hype video.
I cant handle how many grown men on here cared so much about that titelist video 😂😂
Exactly, and I don't feel like the video was that bad at all. I had a similar experience where I was fitted into the mizuno iron and I just don't like the feel of it, the fitter can't seem to understand where I say I don't like the feel of mizuno
I didn’t think it was that bad either, but I also don’t think it was the video itself that people cared so much about, but more the fact it was removed and then never spoken about like it was a taboo subject. By Rick and his team doing that made it out to be a lot bigger than it needed to be. He summed it up perfectly in this video. It should have just been done on Rick’s first podcast back from holidays.
An explanation of the fitting video being deleted wasn't needed but I respect Rick a ton for addressing it. The guy is a regular human and I believe that is the appeal. I really enjoyed all the other answers!
Very good questions, brilliantly answered, especially the Titleist one! Huge credit to you for not swerving it! Very acceptable and genuine explanation on that "situation". Credit to the guy who spotted it too. Bravo!
Boss move Rick!!, you owned the deleted video situation like you own this whole UA-cam business. You keep T’ing em up an acing em, an I’ll keep watching liking an recommending your Channel to who ever will listen!!!!
Rick is so personable it feels like he’s your friend. I think we criticize him as if we really knew him or are familiar with him but we don’t. The internet is a tough place
@@riggz5496 the Internet is definitely tough.
I always challenge the trolls to start their own UA-cam channel and produce content and see how they deal with the same trolling that they like to dish out.
The issue with UA-cam is that you can’t please everyone. Everybody has their own opinions, likes, dislikes, etc. So every once in a while, you’re gonna have people who don’t like what you’re putting out.
@@jpdst29 that’s true it just seems like Rick gets criticized a lot more than the others. Maybe Micah Morris is the only other one I can think that gets a ton of criticism from his own followers smh
@@riggz5496 totally agree. I watch a fair amount of golf UA-cam channels and Rick by far gets criticized the most by his viewers. Which is both baffling and sad.
I appreciate how you answered the question about the driver fitting video honestly. A lot of people don't realize how hard it is to work on social media and can take a toll on you physically and mentally. I did not see anything wrong with the video myself. I saw a genuine Rick Shiels give his honest reviews of what he felt on that day when testing the drivers. Keep up the good work. I appreciate all your videos and you have helped me finally break 100 in my golf game 😂.
Interesting take on the fitting video. I saw it almost immediately after it was posted. I found it fascinating. I never thought you were rude or abrupt. I’ve never had a proper fitting, so the process was all new to me. Then I saw the “backlash” and wondered “what did I miss?” And “are they talking about the same video that I saw?” And it was gone … I appreciate your candor and honesty. Love the channel, love the content. Thanks to you and your crew for all the hard work.
It was definitely off, it makes sense now though.
I still don't understand why Rick stuck with working on the babyfade and I don't really know what Rick was working on during that time in his game so maybe it was a shape he was working on off camera.
It's put to bed in my mind now, if it wasn't for the boys and what they do I wouldn't be back playing!
I did see that driver fitting video and I'm glad you explained what happened.
Ricks decision to delay his takomo review is a genius move! I have takomo irons and also value ricks opinion. So, i am eagerly anticipating the video. I reckon it will be one of his most watched videos in years!
I liked the fitting video. It was raw, honest and gave those who will never get the opportunity to be fitted an in depth look at what goes on. Dont let the 1% ruin it for the rest of us. I want to see more of these vids!
it definitely wasnt only 1% who were rightfully slating that video
I liked it too.
It was 1% defending the video lol.
Just relax people. Seem to be a lot of hurt Titleist supporters in the comments today
@@josephdenyerno just people who want reviewers to be accountable
This vid was class by Rick taking accountability 100% the right thing to do this gave me a lot more respect for Rick!
I LOVE that kind of video: truth, honesty, and helpfulness. That's what it is. THANKS.
Mate as long as you stay true to yourself that is all that matters in this world. There are too many people too interested in projecting negative thoughts rather than just taking things on face value. Love your reviews and can't wait to see the Takomo iron review mate keep up the great content and hope to see lots more in the future. Cheers.
So much respect to you Rick for addressing the driver fitting video. Really good explanation and very humble!
Appreciate you addressing the video, Rick. I know it sucks having to do that, but big props and highly respect you talking about it. Keep being you! 👊🏼
Good answer on optimum driver spin rate. One adder: Ping has some great charts on their website showing optimum launch and spin for both maximum carry and maximum total distance as a function of swing speed/ball speed.
That’s some good honesty and good accountability. Didn’t need to do it but you did. As you say it’s not a good look for yourself as a personality, bad day at the office and in turn that puts a bit of cloud over titleist new product on one of the biggest golfing channels on UA-cam. Live and learn, ultimately the right move. If only all UA-camrs held themselves to this standard of professionalism.
Very pleased to hear you mention your Wilson V6 irons.
Well done Rick for Addressing the Titleist Driver fitting video. WE STILL LOVE YOU!
Here's an idea for a video talking about equipment. I'm 41 and during COVID having watched some of your golf bidder videos I decided to recreate my old Jr golf set from about 1998, and I love going out and using them occasionally on a social round and I think the 975 Titleist driver is still my favorite driver of all time. Why don't you do the same and get a 4 ball together and see the difference given the age of equipment, would be a really fun video.
Rick, I love all your videos! You come across as truly honest in all you do. Please don’t get discouraged by negative people on this platform. We appreciate you! Thanks!
Love the honesty Rick, can see the hurt in your face when talking about the situation.
Very happy to hear you address that video so we can all move past it and enjoy more content in the future! Hoping there’s something to replace break 75
Excited about the upcoming coming takomo review - just got a set of 101T’s and am really happy. Was hoping for a review from Rick before I committed, as he’s a great sounding board, but impatience won the day.
There’s a lot of grown men out there that are going to finally sleep easy tonight safe in the knowledge of why a UA-camr decided to delete a video they uploaded.
😂😂 ill be glad not seeing the same question in the comments section every vid
Using the phrase “grown men” loosely. Will be nice not to see the comment section filled with all the drama mammas.
Grown men who support and are totally responsible for this guy's career playing golf for a living despite his unexceptional abilities. His supporters gave him negative feedback for his shit attitude and he responded, no need to insult the part of his fan base who is willing to hold him accountable when he needs it. And he clearly needed it.
He is weak@@johnpreston1995
Rick, after some reflection, seemed to welcome the feedback and has just addressed it. That's what businesses do with customers; listen to their customers and react accordingly. I think the issue here is your relationship with Rick Shiels Golf is parasocial. It's a business and we're customers. You don't know him. He's not a pal. You realise that, right?
The Titleist fitting wasnt your best video, but i think you handled this very professionally and people in general have taken it way out of proportion. Looking forward to more videos Rick 👍
Love this video Rick. Dont think it should be a recurring video but definitely worth it to answer the obvious question regarding titleist. Love the honesty, all makes sense, fundamentally all for the greater good!
Keep up the good work!
Really appreciate the fitting explanation Rick. Makes much more sense where you're coming from. Always enjoying the content!
I'm sure I speak for many people who never give a like or a comment when I say we watch because of your great attitude. You have good days and bad days, but that's real. You say it all the time "Golfs a funny game." While so many comments that are critical or just nasty usually are made by people that for some reason think their Don Rickles or something.
PS they are far from the legendary Don Rickles.
In the process of getting new irons. Mine are Callaway Big Bertha from 2006. Still in good condition but after 18 years think reasonable time to upgrade. Getting bombarded by Takomo ads on my FB page so am looking forward to your video on them. And thanks for addressing the Titlist video. Didn't see it but was king of sick of all the questions about it. Glad you did and we can now move on.
Atta boy Rick. Two great things in this video: Takomo reviews incoming and you addressing the fitting video. Your explanation was great and it's awesome to see you taking accountability by even talking about it. Can't wait for the Takomo reviews!
Well done Rick. Summed it up perfectly.
I absolutely loved your Titleist fitting video, you should still release the driving fitting one as well since many, many of us would enjoy that one too!
Completely agree about the Ping G irons, Rick. I got fitted for a set of G410s 4 years ago after a series of lessons and they're the best golf purchase I've made. Helped to get my handicap down from low 20s to 10.
I'm probably due to upgrade them now but I'm not sure I can take them out of the bag!
Well done Rick. I’ve really felt for you and your guys these last few weeks and for me this video was the perfect way to address & hopefully put an end to all the questions and speculation 👏
7:21 favorite irons I ever had, Titleist 962b’s. Loved them so much. Every shop that has used clubs, I check to see if they have them.
Great video, while we as viewers were not owed an explanation for the Titleist video it was some great insight as to why it was taken down so thank you for that.
Looking forward to the Takomo review, and the honesty about the Titleist video, now we can all get back to normal😁
Rick, I did not see your Titleist video however I have watched a lot of UA-camrs get fitted by employees of a manufacturer. Their job is to maximize performance and sell clubs, so there is going to be some hype which can (and does) include excitement for an increase ball speed of 2mph, improved launch angle, etc. etc. These data are crucial for the fitter to maximize performance; however at the end of the fitting the question is how much closer to the green is the ball and at what cost? A year or so ago I saw an impressive, sophisticated fitting with a new $600-700 dollar driver, in the end the highest performing shaft gained less than 5 yards with an up charge of $700-800. I was impressed with the fitter he asked the client “you need to decide if the gained yardage is worth the expense?
Rick, your objectivity is much appreciated.
As a kid I was obsessed with the Ping i3 Blades. Tough to find these days especially in lefty. Finally got some a few years ago from Japan
I play a daily stableford game with a bunch of older club members throughout the week, and I’ve seen a couple who still game Ping Eye 2s from the 90s and do quite well with them. I don’t think they were getting a lot of check with their shots onto the greens, but they managed to make them work. As a broke college kid backs in the 90s, that was always my dream set, so that’d be my pick for favorite irons for nostalgia’s sake.
As for the replacing of wedges, I replaced my last 58 degree in less than a year, but I play 250+ rounds of golf per year, and the 58 is the club I spend the most time with warming up prior to the round. I could definitely see the spin degradation over that time.
11:38 you welcome
Rick - you are legit! That’s one 9f the big reasons I follow you. Keep up the great work. We appreciate it!
well said about the fitting with Titleist...thank you...looking forward to more reviews...
Thank you for adressing the issue you explained it besutifully and gave good reasons for removal. I appreciate you taking time to do so. I hope to see more great content from you and your team in the future. Cheers!
I have only owned 2 sets of irons, the Ping Eye 2 beryllium copper and the G 410. Both sets were bought second hand and both sets have given me great moments on the golf course.
Favourite irons are my current ones… PXG 0211 DualCor from 2021. I’m a 31 hcp and they’re perfect!
Skipped to the end for the main question!!! Good its finally been addressed as was annoying me on every podcast episode when didn't come up.
Rick, I cannot express how much I enjoy and appreciate your channels. HIT is great and I value your thoughts on various clubs. I think I like the negative / questionable reviews the most because I can take certain clubs off my list to try (there are so many that if we tried them all, a fitting would never end). On the other hand, you seem to like a lot of clubs. So while negative reviews (too costly for the limited benefits, not as forgiving as advertised, etc) eliminate some sets, the many positive reviews leave me confused. So many to choose from with minor advantages based on my skills or lack thereof. Would love to see you take more definitive stances or narrow it down to handicap range or swing speed range or slicers or hookers or distance, etc. That way, if you say XYZ brand are fantastic clubs for this specific kind of player at least we can narrow our search a little better. I understand that all the top line manufactures (Taylormade, Calloway, Titleist, Ping, etc.) all make good clubs but there MUST be one that tips the scale when it comes to forgiveness at a 95 MPH swing speed for example. Same thing on shafts. With a narrower range of brands for specific statistical players (not just handicaps), your recommendations would carry far more weight. Again, I subscribe to all of your channels and enjoy each of them.
Nice to finally put that Titelist video issue to rest. I've been watching a loooooooong time and was expecting something about like that. In fact, I remember the video where you reviewed those Wilson V6 irons. And night golf in Dubai long ago. The original quest for the open. The Ben Hogan Ft Worth iron review I think was the first video I watched. Maybe 10 years ago? Suddenly I feel old.
Honestly surprised that you read the comments. I thought it was just your team who does this for you. Also surprised that it affects or affected you. I guess I had this idea that you’re just living the life when you are also the same as us, just better and richer😄
I do wish you’d bring back the break 75 videos. Either way, more power to you! 👏
Rick, I fully support your decision to take the video down of your Titleist fitting. I recently went with my son to a golf store here locally for him to get an iron fitting. We were enjoying the day until while he was hitting balls and getting fitted to an iron set, I overheard a couple employees talking. What I overheard was disturbing to me and even though I said nothing, I had to walk out of the store. I did not say anything to my son about it because he was so excited to be doing this for himself for the first time ever. But I needed to share this with you to see if this is something that maybe you have heard of in the past.
So what I heard was two employees discussing which two companies were giving the employees a kick back (extra money) for recommending their products. Now to me, at that point sours the whole experience and explained to me why my son was not able to get the irons he was hitting the best in the simulator numbers wise. Which was the Wilson Dyna power Forged irons with Project X LS 5.0 iron shafts, which he was getting the most distance and the least amount of dispersion and still maintained good stopping power. But the two brands they discussed (TaylorMade and Callaway) are what they talked him into, and both were with just standard shafts that they had in store stock. Should I have said something or do I leave this alone. I just feel bad that my son has been wrongfully treated, which breaks my heart and has soured my view of two brands that I ultimately respected all my years in golf. I have always respected you opinion Rick and your reviews, so I could really use your opinion here to know what I should do in this situation. Shiels Army Always!!!!!!!
I never actually seen the titleist video but certainly heard all the controversy. I am glad that you remain impartial when doing reviews and like you said, the channel was built on that trust. The titleist reps aren’t impartial and it’s hard to put your honest opinions across to the viewers when they are in the video too. Doesn’t sound to me like you were being rude. I’m sure you were just trying to protect yourself and the viewers from being misled. Keep up the good work from a fellow RS 👍🏻
Why would you have hard feelings towards Titleist or the fitter? You basically walked in and said "I'm hitting a fade" when you can't go 5 holes without a rope hook.
Spot on. For a golf channel , it’s actually quite funny that Rick never discusses his swing , technique, etc. I’m sure they’ve done the analysis and found that the majority of viewers aren’t interested in technical content.
I think the Titleist video particularly frustrated genuine golfers as he completely wasted a fitting opportunity that most people could only dream of.
I purchased the Callaway Edge set after your review back 2020ish..the black/green set. Fantastic irons and hybrids.
Well done for coming out and explaining this with a perfectly valid explanation (also enjoyed your answers to other questions)
Would also love your top tips on surviving a British golfing winter
Put the video back up. Appreciate what you are saying so there's no issue. Repost it!
My favorite irons are ones I still use; JPX919 steel forged.
I enjoyed the "Raw Rick" in the Titleist video, kind of felt like we were a quiet observer at the fitting. Gave a good idea of what you could get for buying a service like that as well. Agree that you didn't come off in the most positive way but I didn't think you were out of line. You seemed just a bit frustrated with not seeing the ball flight you wanted on the day. Appreciate the content as always, Rick and team!
Very well explained Mr S. Love your stuff, keep up the fantastic work.
absolutely loving this Q & A 👏
Fair play for addressing the Titleist video. Your explanation made sense and we all have off days, yours are just caught on camera.
Keep up the great work, but don’t drop the break 75 just do more courses around Europe/ America etc…
Totally get what your saying about the GT video, totally respect your decision 🤘🏽❤️
Appreciate your honestly Rick.
I think your content is fantastic and everybody has a bad day at the office. You sit in front a camera for most of your life and for one video to be any kind of reflection on the countless great videos you do a week is not worthy to be chastised about.
I think addressing it was the right thing and now hopefully everybody can chill out and get back to enjoying the cracking content.
Nice one Rick fronted into it. I played golf as a 34 year old for the first time 4 months ago so watched a lot of your stuff and didn’t like all that carry on in each comment section of every video.
I’m only up the road from Trafford wish you still did lessons !
Thank God you’ve addressed it. Maybe after the explanation, you can put it back up. Even with comments switched off 😂
I'm too old and set in my ways to have lessons now but I agree, Lessons first! then buy clubs. 2 years ago I bought a Callaway Rogue driver and 3 wood (£300 for both). Huge difference to distances from my old clubs but no difference to the direction the ball went often. I have only just replaced my old irons with a set of Callaway X Hot irons (5-9 +P &S for under £300) Again huge difference to distances but my golf score hasn't changed immediately. Lessons, lessons lessons. Oh, and thank you for putting the video thing to bed. 👏👏👏👏
Thank you for the explanation, Rick. I hope you will consider reuploading it, maybe with an introduction explaining the context.
Good job Rick, thanks for the explanation and the rest of the talk, good stuff
Rick is right about being apprehensive when it comes to fitters. I had a bad experience last year with a local company in San Diego who had extremely outdated equipment and didn’t bother to go over any specs with me. I walked out.
So I didn't watch the fitting video. But I completely respect trying to protect yourself from the fitter because at the end of the day they're trying to sell you on a product. And Rick is right. They're meant to hype you up even if you don't hit great shots. They need you to feel like you're hitting the ball better than you were with the other drivers. And you need to put up that barrier between yourself and the fitter because you know it's best for you and only you. Especially if you know the numbers mean and if you know what your swing is. Respect for answering the question too!
OMG…he addressed the Titleist fitting video!!! Yes, there were a ton of negative comments because it was negative. Kudos to owning up to how you acted, especially to the fitter.
But you should be you during the fitting. That’s what made it feel so uncomfortable. So which is the real Rick??? The one at the fitter or the edited one in your safe studio? No…be the real you always. You’ll earn our respect and trust back.
Thanks for the comment! I'm always me, I just have my guard up when getting fitted by brands. Its a safety mechanism as I explained in the video.
Rick, I run a business and the fact is, you can't win 'em all. Had the same shit today.
Well done, fan for life.
Best irons Wilson Fg 49 from around 1989? Think they were designed with faldo to get him to move from mizuno. But never changed. Amazing butter irons, the feel and workability was off the charts. Used them for over 20 years but then they started to break down . Miss then to this day
So ready for the Takomo review!
Nicely done on the titlest issue. Good work.
Favorite clubs were the 2014 Taylormade Tour Preferred CB’s or Srixon zx7’s!
My favorite set of irons were the beryllium copper ping Eye2s!!!!
favourite irons for me are the bridgestone J36's, both the cavity back and the blades
This was great Rick, could this be a once a month video slot, it's a great way for us subscribers to feel a connection when you're answering direct questions, food for thought.!?
Favorite set of irons without a doubt are the Hogan Radial blades
I found perfection in Ping i500's, nothing else I've used has come close as a combination of forgiveness, distance, control and feel.
Rick Shield came out in the Titleist fitting 😆
Your attitude on the Titlest video was fine. People just saw one comment talking about your attitude, and it snowballed.
I love the "let the putter choose you" advice. I couldn't agree more.
I was one of the people who was on about the video . Job done case closed great answers top video
the way people talk about that video in the comments, you’d think they’re all perfect and have never made a mistake. There was nothing wrong with the vid in my opinion, respect to you for answering the question though Rick
Best irons for me.. Balmoral forged muscle low profile irons 💪
I was getting tired of people asking about the fitting video tbh lol
It shouldn’t have ever been so controversial to begin with. Thanks for a very clear and understandable answer! Looking forward to more videos!!
I’m considering a set of 2019 T200’s, just wondering how they stack up to the two more recent iterations in terms of performance. Local shop has them for $600 which feels like a pretty good deal.
The comments on and about the fitting video were ridiculous. That was a totally normal fitting conversation. Based on the comments, you'd think Rick kicked everyone's dogs. It was pearl clutching by unserious people. Kind of crazy people are shocked Rick doesn't speak with a presentation-style speech cadence in normal conversation.
I can't believe people are still talking about it. More things in life to worry about.
Kudos to you Rick. Fair play...
Wilson staff blades ❤ I am a high HC but them blades just felt amazing. And they didnt feel awful in regard to forgivenes either. Wilson realy has good products and are ofthen overlooked.
Thanks for doing this, really cool.
Look forward to more of these types of videos in the future.
Regarding the Titleist video, I thought it was a really great video. I don't really get the negative comments on the video. I really think that those people may have not done a fitting. You just were focused is all.
PS, check out the GT2 weight on the GT4, apparently its crazy good.
Best irons for cheap are TaylorMade Rac LT. I've tested countless irons at the store, these are still in the bag after 10 years. 3 handicap.
ready for the takomo review!!!!
I’ve been watching you for the last 4 years I believe. I honestly enjoyed watching your Titleist fitting video, 1. You’re serious about the equipment regardless of brand, 2. You showed a side that, let’s be honest, most of us have and 3. You’re an independent reviewer. Finally get to see Rick be picky, be serious and I want to see more and I’m sure others will. People need to stop being so sensitive, your doing your job, there is those of us that appreciate it. It gave me a better idea of how to approach a fitting and somethings to watch for also. So many of UA-cam reviewers say get fitted, but not a lot cover what to look for, how or what questions to ask, and how to prepare for one. I have enough of a hard time hitting with new people around, let alone be 1 on 1 with a person judging my swing to make sure he can help me get the right equipment.
