Hi I’m Rick Shiels, welcome to my channel RickShielsPGAGolf. This KZbin 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.

HIT 👍 if you want more coaching videos

[@edput]

This video is very helpful. Where I seem to have trouble is when the ball is down or up hill. Is there an adjustment needed for these these lies?

[@Hockeybeast-bm4lu]

Not helpful

[@synx3014]

@colten how can this posibaly not be helpfull when you reply when the video came out 10 mins after you mentioned this video and the video is 8.30mins long I hate spiteful people who say this

[@sandyettles5453]

Yes rick.

[@drsquidius]

again with brilliant tips! thanks !

[@MattTheFlyerFan]

Really like how added the component of the shoulder into this video. I feel like that has been my issue. Thanks Rick! Cheers!

[@badzioch64]

This for me is the most important tip I’ve ever seen. I’ve been told a million times to keep my head still.

[@austi16]

You do keep your head still. You just slide your body for forward a little while you start coming down

[@bigboy9842]

Yeah you’re still keeping you head still

[@the1mexicant]

And you will keep getting told that until you stop looking up at the shot

[@austi16]

the1mexicant looking up at the shot makes you have a longer and more extended follow through keeping your head down too long bunches your neck and you follow through with no extension. 99.9 percent of your pros look up at the ball. Tiger probably does it the most but all of them do it

[@No_one_important22]

austi exactly. Tiger was always taught to keep his eye on the ball through the whole shot so he can get the best follow through. Where some golfers make the mistake is lifting the head too early which can cause your body to follow and a bad strike b

[@roojones9958]

Literally thinking about why I can’t do this as I clicked on KZbin, what timing!!! Thanks rick, helped so much.

[@goblue7100]

What helped me a little is actually the feeling of putting more weight on my left leg (righty) and barely turning in the backswing and just follow through regularly

[@nacholibrerm5723]

It’s because your being tracked my brotha. Say something you wanna eat, within the next 24 hours you’ll see an add correlated with the topic.

[@ror8820]

Same

[@johnrutter1667]

Massively the same!! Tried it today... F me, game changer!!

[@jakehoulihan4427]

Same haha

[@liamwood797]

This is literally so helpful! Will put into practice tonight on my round! Great video Rick!

[@ZickDorito]

Happy to see someone with good reach on the internet actually talk about 1 of the 3 fundamentals in golf and described in a good way nice work Rick!

[@travistiffany5585]

Seeing the position of that divot in relation to the ball is extremely helpful. I would not have guessed that it should be 2-3 inches in front of the ball. I always thought is should be starting directly under the ball. And I wonder why I hit it fat so often. Something to work on. Thanks Rick.

[@gavynfrankenfield7998]

Love the videos Rick! I just started really playing a month or two ago. The videos are much needed!

[@quickplaya]

Perfect timing Rick! Going to the range in 3 hours! Love you!

[@benlee1240]

This is what I’ve been struggling with. This video helped so much. Thank you

[@KW-lj6sr]

I remember just starting out in golf, I was always told the way to effectively hit a golf ball, was ball first, grass after. Never could do it until really focusing on videos like this, now taking a divot every time, and distance of the ball comes flying off the face! Unbelievable and absolutely incredible feeling it is!!! Thanks coach!

[@mavuk7366]

Great video, perfect for what i needed after struggling with this over the last round 👍🏻👌🏻

[@robertduffin3672]

Used these tips on the course today and shot my best ever round (12 shots less than usual). Thank you Rick 👍

[@GolfWeekly]

Love using this drill! Great video Rick👍🏼. It’s crazy how different the iron swing and the driver swing are.

[@johan.018]

My golf nemesis - been bettering it lately though. Much thanks to you!

[@ajfatca]

thanks, i have been struggling with irons lately, driver/fairway woods swing is in good shape need to work on irons/this more

[@andrewulrich5570]

This is so helpful it gives me a visual to focus on when swinging it helps a lot

[@bobbriante2385]

Love the instruction for the right shoulder

[@billsmith1318]

Your coaching videos are simple but effective. I have used many of them and finally seeing an improvement, this will be added to my routine on the practice range, thanks again.

[@corywhitehead83]

I watched this video this morning and went out in the afternoon and shot one of the rounds of my life. Been struggling a bit with the swung after taking some time off golf but your videos have helped tremendously get my swing back. Thanks Rick.

[@christoth98]

This is such a great tip for beginners. For the longest time I thought you were supposed to have a divet before the ball.

[@yourfavoritechannel9112]

Avengers: The Investing Initiative don’t be a jerk??? He was wrong, now he’s not. No need to put down a beginner for doing something wrong.

[@infected4kill]

@Avengers: The Investing Initiative Because to hit the middle of the club your head may have to be in dirt so you can lift the ball more. Lol the hell dude foh

[@darrentaitague270]

Wow thank you Rick, this might be one of the best videos I’ve seen to help us weekend warriors hit more solid shots. Seems very easy to work on and I’ll be doing this next range session.

[@julianbell9586]

Lovely couple of tips. Love the simple visualisations... I'll take this to the range this weekend. Love your videos and simple tips!!

[@bradleyadams7648]

Brilliant Rick!! Loving these tips. Please keep em coming.

[@kindpuffin124]

It’s videos like this that makes Rick the best teacher on KZbin. Went to the range this morning after watching this video and my ball striking was fire! By the end of the bucket my divots looked like his which I could never do before. Dude this video was amazing! Thanks Rick!

[@nathanferguson9990]

I needed this so much! Thanks very much Rick! Much appreciated sir

[@brandonsyanez]

Great advice and practice techniques. You inspired me to start playing golf again after a 10 year hiatus. My first outing back I shot lower using your tips than my buddies that had been playing more frequently. Granted none of us shot great but I had confidence in my shots throughout the round.

[@jameshannaford7598]

I've watched every one of your coaching videos and still learn something new every time!

[@brianmorrell6759]

Thanks for the video Rick!!!

[@chieflongsock]

Love these type.of videos, thanks rick!

[@shaneslade8459]

Always give me so much to think about! Thank you for the coaching tips!!

[@shauncarter924]

Great work, Rick. I’ve struggled with this for years. Thank you!

[@santiagopalaciocarranza2177]

Thank you Rick, what an amazing video!! I’ll have those tips in mind when I hit the range!!

[@nathanoc14]

Wow, I needed this one, thanks Rick!

[@anthonylam3922]

[@Ben-cn4hm]

Something I've always known I need to do but always struggled with - this is brilliant cheers Rick 😁👍

[@adammcsherry2556]

Rick thanks a lot your videos are amazing

[@scottsmith9192]

This is the one thing I really need to work on, thank you for the tips! I pick it clean too much and tend to hit slightly left. Heading to the range! Have a good day Shielsy!

[@arfoncarhart9817]

Loving the guides Rick!

[@amc5966]

This is a brilliant video. Just what I needed. Really struggling with this. Thanks Rick!

[@undertakeroutdoors]

Great video! Really needed some tip like this! Thank Rick!

[@MatteOhlund]

Yes! Was finaly able to hit my first long and good iron shoot! Big thanks for this video Rick!

[@angrytom1923]

I really appreciate all the videos and tips! I’m headed to Florida with my Dad to play golf at his condo in Destin. Can’t wait to try out all the stuff I’ve learned and practiced.

[@gadgearnold6237]

Thanks rick enjoy the videos

[@KarlTheGiraffe]

Amazing tip, thank you

[@brianshanahan9633]

Boom!! Finally I can hit the ball properly and not behind it like I have been! Lining the ball up with my sternum has been the best tip for me. I just had my best EVER session. I've never hit them so sweetly. Thanks for the videos, tips and podcasts. Enjoying them all. Much appreciated, Brian S from Sydney.

[@mattdavis3369]

I cannot tell you how much of a difference this made. Thank you so much Rick!

[@TheLgcookie10]

You make it so easy to learn how to play consistent, quality golf as an amateur. In a couple months I’ve gone from hitting in the low 100s to hitting 89 on par 72 twice in a row last week.

[@atxbowlingcoach]

Great teaching. Thanks

[@student-georgewoodhead4070]

Great video love you rick

[@DJRaNdOm819]

Every week I watch one of your videos and work on those drills, today's video led to my best range session EVER! easily put 15-20% more distance and height. Cant wait for next weeks

[@SlainteMhath]

This is a very helpful video. It's great information to try to remember out there, even on your best course days. ... Now, if I could just get my driver swing to be as consistent.

[@casperdekijndt2334]

Love the video. Very very helpful and certainly to remember when on the course. Love your content. CONGRATS!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍

[@HelloWorld-bb2cq]

Was waiting for this video. Ty

[@Gathaeryx]

Great tips Rick, I'll try to put them into practice next weekend!

[@patrickspark1333]

Many of your lessons have helped improve my game Rick, and I always seem to take away something positive. Cheers!

[@nicoroodt6887]
