Congratulations to Guy and his wife! Golf goals for myself is just to get out there and play.

[@hjlamb]

This was an amazing interview! These Florida podcasts have been fantastic! Thanks, Rick!

[@RickShielsPGA]

Apologise the other upload was faulty. This is the correct version!

[@leepuddefoot-attackanglego7734]

I had the opportunity to meet Brad Faxon last year at a PGA Teaching Symposium an a true gentleman. As a PGA Instructor in South West Florida, I have set some goals for 2023. Get healthy and fitter, change my backswing a little, break 70 again and get some more club head speed. shot 71 on January 11th. Love the channel.

[@kjg0405]

One of my favorite interviews from you Rick. Brad Faxon is one of my all time favorite players because he is so good on the greens. Your question about what Tour players Brad wishes he could have putted for I yelled at my screen ADAM SCOTT! before he answered. Hopefully, we get to see the putting lesson on a future show.

[@frednegus7017]

That interview was one your best. Faxon was very interesting, easy to understand and truly knowledgeable. As for Rick I thought he handled the interview with much skill and as a top notch professional. Good work. And Cheers

[@slatfreq]

Great interview with Brad. Such a likable guy!! Congrats on the baby, Guy!! Goal for 2023 is to gain 10-15 yds with my driver off the tee. Keep my handicap in single digits.

[@dannyblair5556]

Wonderful interview, such a balanced guy with a great tone to his voice, he must be a pleasure to work with, I could listen to him all day.

[@myopenmind527]

Brad is such a gentleman of the game. Love the interview. Learned loads. Ty both.

[@keithdavis6852]

Great interview. I was glued to the screen. Such a difference listening to someone who can coach, and has been a great player.

[@itzjasoneldridge]

Now THAT is a genuine and wonderful man with an INCREDIBLE knowledge and kindness....WOW....my favorite interview so far !!! I'm from England originally and came to the USA on a golf scholarship in 1989....wish I'd known Mr. Faxon.

[@reyo8036]

Loved seeing how engaged you were in this Rick. Leaning forwards and intently listening. Great watch/ listen.

[@johnbray9379]

Absolutely glued to the screen watching this one, loved every minute

[@garyosborne8906]

Rick, I may have said this before but you have become such a great interviewer. Your relaxed style makes the interview more of a casual conversation. Your questions are investigative but simple to follow and I believe you bring out the best in those you interview. This interview was outstanding and I can’t wait to see the lesson. Finally, I would be remiss if I did not send out a great big congratulations to Guy and his family. What an exciting time it must be in a young man’s life to become a father. Sadly, I never fathered any children but I did have the privilege to co-parent a very fine young man from my wife’s first marriage. He was almost 12 when she and I married almost 50 years ago. I hope the child remains healthy and happy long beyond Guy’s life and that all he has is the joy of watching her grow and prosper.

[@benhenshall6902]

Thank you Rick for taking the time to bring this wonderful interview to us.. I could listen Brad talk all day, he made everything sound insightful and knowledgable. And someone who i’d never want to stop learning from.. Many thanks again

[@Dom_Meribel]

Congrats to Guy & family!! 200k reached within 3 hours of released - well done team :) I plan to watch more Rick Shiels in 2023 haha and improve my golf!! Much love to all

[@bux46a]

Watched a lot of Brad when he was on tour and just loved his demeanour on the course... Watching him speak I can now see why.... Great podcast Rick... Congrats to Guy and his wife on their bundle of joy....

[@petegalindez9961]

Epic interview…Brad is a golfing God…I was stationed in Newport, RI, living in Bristol, right up the road from his home town of Barrington…great state with great golf courses…and Brad is a hero up there. Great that he’ll be in the booth this season!

[@bdsgad]

Brad used to be golfing royalty in RI but now he is a pariah. Was part of an ownership group that bought the iconic, Donald Ross designed Metacomet country club and then sold it out from under the members for houselots and commercial property. His is persona non grata in RI these days...

[@petegalindez9961]

@@bdsgad bummer to here that…

[@peterlightowler3807]

I’ve not played golf regularly for about 30 years. I lived and breathed golf and shared golf with my dad when I was younger. Since watching your channel and the break 75 videos you have inspired me to dust off the clubs again and get out there on the course once more. Your enthusiasm and encouragement really are inspiring Rick and I do feel like my hunger to play again has returned. So, my goal for 2023 is to get the golf bug back and immerse myself back into the world of golf. I can’t wait for the weather to warm up and get out there. Thanks Rick, keep up the quality videos and stay true to your roots.

[@paulg7894]

Always have been a huge Brad Faxon fan. He’s such a class act. Obviously a remarkable putter! We’re the same age so I’ve watched his career for a long time. Hope he helps your putting game. Congratulations Guy🥂

[@stephenhill9616]

Congrats to Guy and family. This is my favourite interview so far Rick, and Brad seems like a really nice guy

[@sappermade6012]

This is one of the best interviews I’ve ever listened to. Not just golf stuff but in general this is awesome

[@kevinreid6785]

Faxon is a total legend, and so amazing to see his battered old putter.

[@jeffreyewing1168]

The podcasts have been fantastic, really look forward to them each week .

[@glennwisse6271]

Best putting instructions I’ve ever listened to. Great video Rick. Brad is the best!

[@curtisburkhart]

This has been absolutely terrific. Brad Faxon is always so good at conveying the message. Great interview, very interesting!

[@seb1989]

The pride of Rhode Island! Definitely one of my inspirations for golf and life in general! Wonderful interview Rick!

[@davids.6813]

Brad is a true legend. One of my all time favorite golf pros. Thank you for having him on the cast. Loved every minute.

[@sw8367]

One of your best guests Rick. Such an engaging and pleasant guy

[@stephenmartinez4757]

Thank you for another outstanding pod! Brad Faxon provides great putting guidance. Now to get out and put in the time to improve.

[@andresd11]

An amazing video! Nothing else to add. Looking forward to more of them.

[@MichaelTaylor-ed1bh]

I know I’m late to the party, but I absolutely love this interview. I could listen to Brad talk all day!

[@JoeBautista_]

this was the best podcast yet ricky...brad faxon is one of the most underrated people to listen to when it comes to golf. LOVED THIS.

[@doubleplaybymj]

Well done, thanks for these podcasts and LOVE the lesson ones!

[@garypugsley7514]

That podcast was was just so brilliant. Informative, insightful and entertaining.....I can remember Brads name in the the last century (lol!) before I saw the light....Golf!!! Rick, that was just off the scale, I cannot wait to see your putting lesson. It has really got me worried.....all three putters I have had and currently were all presents. Fitting for a putter???? Are you for real? A totally different thought process, thanks to Brad. 100/100 ...simply ACE!

[@loumitchells73]

What a great interview. What a nice guy. Looking forward to your putting session.

[@robertrenekerjr6819]

My goals are to get back to what I started with last spring. Was playing pretty well until July, when I had a phenomenal 9 holes. Then, had some heavy chores around the house. Messed up my back and elbow, and made my carpal tunnel flare. My game was complete garbage after that. So spending the winter getting healthy and rehabbing. Also going to do some golf specific training from some videos from you and Matt Fryer to be able to hit the course running in the spring. And for sure, congrats to Guy and his wife!

[@themoose95]

Loving the content and congrats on 200K! Looking forward to what 2023 has to bring for y’all!!

[@timbarnwell94]

Great show Rick, love these recent interviews. Great knowledge. Keep up the great work!

[@jackwhite8133]

Keep up the good work Rick and team! These videos get me through the day!

[@stevewells3106]

Congrats to Guy & family! Always enjoy all you do, keep up the great work.

[@clgolf741]

Love you getting all the pros on here and seeing the content on main channel

[@spenno73]

Could listen to Brad all day, these latest episodes are brilliant

[@colin_butterworth]

Congrats to Guy and his family! My only Golf goal this year is to try and play more. I used to play once or twice a week, but life and family changed that to once or twice a year. I want to change that back to playing more. Not sure how much more, but more would be a good start.

[@robertbroadhead8666]

Thank you for the great teaching. You have helped so much.

[@JimClark-dm8eo]

AMEN to putter fitting...I recently got fitted and a 1/2 " shorter made a huge difference in my pull misses to center misses now...Thanks, Brad and Rick for the awesome interview!!!

[@oldpelican5181]

Fascinating interview. Kudos Rick!

[@Alextway16]

So happy for Guy! And great interview, just the amount of knowledge he has.

[@tedsegura2382]

Looking forward to the new content and your journey to becoming a better golfer. My goal for the new year is getting some golf lessons and playing more on the course. Thanks Rick.

[@wonderwuffle22]

Congrats on 200K, Guy on his child, and here’s to 2023! Can only go up from here

[@adrianbaker3127]

Great interview. Loved the coaching session as well. Loving the channel Rick 👍

[@erinpackard9768]

I used to follow Brad Faxon at The Memorial Tournament aka Jacks Event... short game was so impressive. When he got into trouble he always chose the lower risked shot and counted on his wedge play and that silky smooth putting stroke to still make a par.

[@mikehole816]

Congratulations Guy & Abbie on your new arrival. Subscribed to all channels. Bring on the merch!

[@keithharris6442]

Great insights with Brad, love these Rick, thanks

[@brent6795]

[@DeonTucker]

Sounds like an exciting year! Congrats to Guy and his new family!

[@paulwright1950]

Congratulations Guy! All the best for you and your family

[@lambogolf1509]

This was genuinely an engrossing interview. I took away some great advice from this and would of listened to Brad if this interview was twice as long.

[@ajaytuk7416]

what a great podcast! Funny, informative and inspiring all at the same time

[@mikexavier1928]

Love the content. Have been watching for a couple on months and enjoy

[@lukewillis5867]

Could have listened to hours more of that!! What a legend Brad Faxon is 👌🏻

[@bryanstraz5102]

Great interview! Brad seems like a genuinely nice guy and very relatable.

[@aidatriggs]

I think one of the best interviews you've done Rick. Loved this!

[@kelvincritchley1410]

My favorite interview so far, the tip to go long back and shorter follow through worked for me, cheers Brad 🙂. Brad seems like a great bloke!

[@davidgilbert2961]

Congrats on the new arrival GUY, my baby boy is due in 4 weeks. My golf goals for this year are to focus on more rotation, get my distance up and my score down. I tend to be a throw and extend golfer and i want to be more sit and rotate. Its a long road ahead but looking forward to another addition to my family and a more enjoyable and consistent round of golf.

[@andrewlentz5306]

Congrats Guy! All the best from Minnesota! New year would love to break 85. Great stuff as always

[@terryhierlihy4111]

Really nice chat with Brad Faxon, well done. Congratulations to Guy and expanding family.

[@roberlawrence733]

wow, congrats to Guy and his wife! Great interview with Brad Faxon, such a great player in his time and now putting coach. Fascinating chat.

[@tylerhepburn120]

Awesome interview thanks Rick!

[@laineyt3969]

Congrats to Guy and thanks for a great interview. I've listened to and watched/ saved your putting lesson vid with Brad. There are definitely more than a few takeaways for me. As for goals... I'd like to consistently hit in the 90's (last year I had a few rounds below 100 before things fell apart later in the summer/fall 😄

[@seandarlington3773]

Absolutely brilliant. Great smile and attitude

[@chrisrazzell3548]

Love the pod, awesome guest and great news for Guy. SHOW ME THE HEADCOVEEEEER!

[@RobTonks]

Fantastic interview, more of these please! I definitely prefer when it's just 1 and 1, gives the interviewee the time to speak 👍👍

[@stephentait2594]

Congratulations to guy and his wife loved this episode Rick Brad Faxon is so laid back would love a lesson from him

[@watchvidjedi]

Congrats to Guy and family! Brilliant interview and I loved Brad's last comment, "Bring golf balls, out here we call them marsh food!" :D

[@markhills9514]

As an EGTF Coach my aim is to teach more and also improve my very short game ie chipping around green. Loving your channel. Big congrats to Guy and family. If your ever in Cornwall!

[@ryanmears1013]

Congratulations Guy! I hope you and the girls are doing well!

[@toddrobinson8876]

Congratulations to Guy and his wife. Awesome news!

[@ragnarlothbrok4516]

Fantastic interview!!!!!!

[@nickupjohn8586]

Wow ! I could listen to Mr Faxon all day , he’s super cool and the fact that top tour players trust him to help with their putting is fantastic. Can’t wait to see him analyse Rick’s method and fingers crossed he gives him the answer to being a good putter.

[@ozwold74]

Massive congrats to Guy and his missus. Great episode, Rick. Fascinating discussion. My goals this year- improve consistency striking the ball and start breaking 80 by the end of the year. I'm working on mobility and flexibility to increase swing rotation/ range with comfort. Lessons over winter and fitting to confirm current clubs are suitable (or not).

[@sionparry1529]

Congratulations to Guy! Hope to see him bag on the podcast again soon.

[@paulbentleymusic]

Absolutely brilliant podcast. Congrats Guy!! Looking forward to hopefully winning the head over.

[@andrewschmidt1649]
