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.

[@crk2288]

Dude, you're attitude, demeanor and excitement in this video reminds me of your old videos. Focusing on being positive is doing wonders for you! Congrats and I hope to see more of this in the future. Cheers! 🍻

[@joshleonard347]

Hey mate, I just wanted to say that this is really kind and constructive feedback. As you have given Rick a pat on the back, I’d like to give you one. Positive feedback like this is rarely given, you should be proud of yourself.

[@user-oh2hs6jh5x]

The less color involved on the back of a golf club, or for that matter the crown, the better as far as I am concerned. Keep it simple, one color, either black or gray, and leave it at that. Kudos to Wilson. These look sharp!

[@kevinstarling9570]

Just take the sponsorship, Rick Shiels x Wilson is the partnership the world needs

[@bertiebillson6863]

Yes we need it 😂

[@Simeon-the-Magnificent]

Rick is a Wilson type of golfer for sure

[@jeremyseitz905]

Nah, sponsorships means no more testing, or at least confirms it will be biased testing. We don't need more 90 minute golf commercials, just 90 minutes of golf.

[@kevinstarling9570]

@@jeremyseitz905 I would argue Rick has built a solid reputation as an unbiased reviewer of equipment and that we wouldn’t see too much advertising of the product, we don’t get it with Mercedes and Toptracer

As a huge Star Wars fan, I caught that immediately also 😂

Welcome Rick to the wonderful world of Wilson! The best bang for your buck still!

[@interestedbystander196]

Are they still number one for title victories? They certainly used to be...

[@IainBoyd-zd8st]

It’s cool to see you praising Wilson Staff. They were amazing clubs when I was growing up, if you could play with their blades you were an incredible golfer. Great to see them making good clubs and a come back!!!

[@HerbBone]

I have been waiting for this review since these clubs were launched. I have a set of the V6's that I bought mostly off of your review 7 years ago and I had a set of the Pi7's before that. Great to hear that you love these clubs as much as you liked the V6's. I will have to get a set in the regular shafts now that I am a senior and the swing speed has dropped. Thanks for the good work, Rick! I'm sold!

[@TLRChad]

I'm honestly not surprised, Rick. You've been a fan of Wilson CB irons for quite some time. You spoke very highly of the Wilson V6 irons (got a hole in 1 if I remember correctly). You really enjoyed the last iteration of the CBs and now these. I think it's fate Rick. These should be in your bag.

[@Johndavidson4]

I think it’ll also put less pressure on him to use a set that isn’t one that the pros use. Idk. The mind is a weird thing

[@vanbalzup6481]

He should consider it a challenge to be THE ONE to revive Wilson as a brand. He should go all in, work with them, use his platform to negotitate some equity and see how many clubs he can sell. I want to see Rick in a red “Make Wilson Great Again” hat with a red staff bag, touring the world, the ambassador the brand needs right now.

[@The_sunday_lout]

Back to what you do best Rick, honest reviews, must say you’re lucky The Masters is delayed otherwise I wouldn’t have seen this till Monday next week 😂. Wilson need to stay where they are. Like the PXG plan, good quality clubs at a price lower than the more pricier manufacturers. 100% a market for it, but that only works when your get good honest independent reviews. Top stuff Rick

[@daviddinsdale2471]

Mate, I got myself these irons as soon as they were released. I am fortunate enough to be a club fitter and I did my own fitting for these. Tey are spectacular! the feel is butery soft yet clear and crisp at the same time. Flushing these clubs feels like nothing else. The fluid feel hosel definately adds to the feel of this iron. With traditional lofts and a lot of forgiveness. Great price for a great club. My whole bag is Wilson now and I am stupid happy! Regards, Dave.

[@briantwining86]

I've been playing golf for a little over 3 years, have my handicap at 18 currently. Bought my first new set of irons last year and got the Wilson D9 Forged. Holy hell, are they awesome. Forgiving, long, and look beautiful. I can only imagine what there play like in better players' hands 💪 Great review Rick.

[@Golfpicker]

Love my D9 Forged irons as well!!! Wilson making some excellent clubs!

[@kristopherhorwath8756]

​@Golfpicker I was a whisker away from buying D9 forged last year after a fitting from Wilson. Got a great deal on Mizuno 923 Forged so I had to get those instead. But I still have a set of D9 Forged in my cart online, waiting for another price drop. ($499 currently. 5-GW)!!!

[@tobiaseliasson4980]

Great timing, getn fitted for these today. This vid didnt disappoint, very excited.

[@rufussthoo4083]

Nah. Not surprising, Rick. Just like the previous release, the Wilson Staff line are some of the VERY best irons on the market, both performance and feel-wise. I'm playing a 3-way combo set of Wilsons this year - D9 Forged long irons (also beautiful to behold, fantastic feeling and very forgiving), 2024 CB mid irons, and 2024 blade short irons. They blend beautifully in the bag; the feel is very consistent, and gapping is easy with some minor loft adjustment. And while aesthetics is subjective, they are SO good looking that every reviewer I've watched drools over them. The icing on the cake is that they are more affordable than their main rivals - by more than $500 here in Oz. Could they be priced higher? Absolutely. Could I afford to play them if they were? Maybe not ... 😞 I absolutely love having Wilsons in the bag again. You will too 😊

[@kristopherhorwath8756]

I have a set of D9 Forged in my online cart. 5-GW $499 (Hoping for another price drop)

[@crezzventure1768]

I have played a Wilson CB/MB combo set for a couple of years now and I have not had any issues with them shining in my face. Also that Crome finish doesn’t scratch. They almost look like new. Awesome clubs

[@clayfleming6286]

I played the T100 briefly after wearing out my previous gen CB’s while waiting for these to come out. These have been in the bag for a few weeks now and I absolutely love them. To be fair I have played Wilson irons for 8+ years now, every set since the V4.

[@antonyhemsley1516]

Great looking clubs and nice review! I like how you raise concerns even when impressed. Really enjoyed Guy joining in to say “Precious” 😮

[@interestedbystander196]

Yes, some people would have thought that was CGI...

[@bradtoigo6353]

Great review Rick and very underrated is definitely a way of describing Wilson golf. Currently still gaming the d7 forged irons and couple of d9 hybrids and they are fantastic at a much more reasonable price. Looking hard at the new wedges as well but love my Cleveland's. Cheers.

[@nizzyrascal]

I got these irons a few weeks ago and love them. Went from blades to the fitted cb’s

[@metalhead491]

My 2021 CBs have held up amazingly. The heads are very well made in my opinion (manufacturing engineer in casting industry). The plating still looks great, and has never been an issue on course. I shouldn't even be playing them as a high handicapper, but when I saw them I had to get them. I regularly tee off with the 4i, not uncommon to put it 220 out.

[@robertbeato2795]

You and me both Rick!!! The Wilson CBs are sooooooo amazing. From the fg v6’s to to the 21 models to these. All are perfection

[@MrApollo517]

Im playing the d9 forged irons and love them.

[@swieri2003]

Same, stunning irons.

[@mojohojo1210]

I started playing them a month back and they are the best ive ever used

[@jackvliet]

I just got a set as well, they are perfect

[@MegaLawrence87]

Absolutely love my D9s. They feel so pure and go a bloody mile! I was worried about how shiny they were, but nearly a year later they still look brand new.

[@docmonty5859]

Same here on the Wilson D9s. I hit the Callaway BB 2004's for years, upgraded to the Callaway XR, and one month ago, I purchased a set of the Wilson D9 irons. The results have been stellar. 👍

[@GralphW]

Changed from my Taylor Made 790's to Wilson D9 with Recoil graphite shafts and they are awesome - son has the CB's and he stripes them. Their wedges though are the standout! 50, 54 and 58 are superb.

[@kristopherhorwath8756]

I keep an older Staff Model Wedge in my work van, and go to the local chipping areas when I have down time... Best Wedge I've ever had! Not sure why I play Mizuno 😂

[@russellstone714]

That’s awesome for Wilson to make irons like they used to back in the day. I was given a full set of Wilson Staff blades back around 1983 and learned to play golf with them. They small, but pure and I loved hitting them.

[@mejustanormalguy4742]

I'm soo happy I went with the Wilson forged last year .love them

[@19DMS51]

Great video. I’ve had Wilson irons in my bag for 15 years. They have always played well for me. I hope they do go in your bag and you have some real success with them.

[@paulburgess6379]

Great honest review Rick . And it would only right after you comments to test on the course which I will look forward to seeing

[@AndyPlaysGolf]

I played the d7 forged for 2 years. The chrome finish never once dulled, but I did see marks on the matt finish on thr rear of the club's from when the clubs hit together. I absolutely loved them and will. Hopefully return to Wilson soon.

[@tomasthonell5445]

Same here. Love my D7 forged!

[@ultimatejay]

i Just bought a mint set of used D7 forged. Heard they are one of the best.

[@michaelwalsh7753]

Wilson has more tour wins then all other brands combined, and they are the only brand to be hit on the Moon.

The sound on those pure strikes is a sympathy!!! Great video, and I'm glad to see HIT back up and producing content.

[@KaotikImpulse]

I went to get my first fitted set ever last year and the CBs were so good. Snagged a 4-Gap wedge set. Ended up with a Wilson Dynapower 3W and 3H as well. Seriously, check those out if you're looking for budget friendly woods that are forgiving as can be.

[@jumbocrunchh]

I love Wilson Staff, I use their TM22 putter and I LOVEEE it.

That’s a powerful recommendation from a guy who can play ANY clubs anytime. I bought the Wilson D9 set last year and they are super. Lots of distance and forgiveness.

[@jeffcobb8151]

Wilson Staff FG Tour V5 are in my bag. Looking for new ones and I can’t help but look to WS. Always great quality and feel. These and the Titleist line up look like the best ones this year.

[@nickgauts]

I've been saying wilson is on the up and up for last few years! Underrated clubs and I've tried a few brands and these are the ones that felt the nicest and most consistent. Hoping to get some in the bag and not just dreaming at the golf store

[@luckyuke425]

I bought the Wilson V6's years ago based off your recommendation. Still use and love them. May look at these one day soon as well.

[@leewalpole27]

I started playing 18 months ago and got a cheap set of Wilson's, quickly realises that the package sets aren't great so upgraded to the D9 irons and they are still so forgiving and so beautiful.

[@mattjkv47]

Great review as always, would be interested in reviews of the rest of the 2024 line up from Wilson - dynapower forged, model blades and the ZM wedges

[@julianroberts698]

Yes Go Rick !! I love Wilson clubs I have a set of Dynapowers. Great to see Wilson starting to get the recognition they deserve. Great clubs for a fair price

[@RyanBears]

I am gaming these now, and absolutely love them. Cheers Rick!

[@mikecooke2357]

Got the last iteration of this iron a month before these came out .Love them for distance being bang on the nose. Feel suberb and pretty forgiving on bad shots . I paid £479 5-gw custom fit kbs tour shafts . Bargain of the century!!

[@samiam4240]

I bought these as well. I've played three rounds so far this spring. I also ordered the wedges (54* & 58*) but they're backordered until May 1st...So I hope they don't get delayed past that. Anyway, I picked up about 10 yards per club same shaft, stiffness, grip and all standard length & lie. My previous clubs were the 2014 version of these (I think) the Wilson Staff V4 FG CB's. I loved those...this newest 2024 version is lofted only 1 degree stronger compared to my old 2014 clubs. The 24 version feels softer than the 14, but it's also longer too. So, the technology is there. Loving my decision!

Love my Wilson irons. I play the D9 forged and love them.

I switched to the Staff ball last year and was equally impressed. Will definitely give these a whirl next time i buy.

[@WilsonGolfTV]

Thank you for giving it the recognition it deserves 🤝 Love it!!!

[@seegarsmkr]

Love WS irons. I love my D7 forged. Went to the Miz 923 Tours they are wonderful, a bit small and slightly unforgiving. I had a chance to buy the new WS CBs, took the plunge and couldn't be happier. They are a bit larger and much more forgiving. They feel just as good if not better as you vary from center. The size difference between the Tours and the CBs is the difference between the Ping Blueprint T to S.

[@taylormeyer671]

Ive got a set of Taylormade RBladez that look just like these with the milled face and polished toe and heal. I get tons of spin with them, for better or for worse. Over time they haven't worn too bad, just a few knicks on my go to clubs. It doesn't effect the ball flight though. I've been playing them for 4 or 5 years now and they're great

[@christopherclarke5978]

It's feeling like the old Wilson V6 days. I love my Wilson D9 forged

[@alanfairhurst3033]

Well Rick, looks like you had some genuine trouser movement with these beauties. I've been playing with D7's & DG S300 shafts for a few years now, and even though I love playing with them, however they're starting to show their age, and I have been looking to replace them, but up until now, I haven't found anything close. I really like the address position with that thin top edge. These could be the ones.

Bought the V6 some years ago, loved them. Was actually thinking buying two set and keep one for the future. Then opted for the staff MB, looks killer and feels nice but do punish a poor strike. 1 week ago I custom ordered the CB. I was not looking for new irons, just wanted to try them out.

It is now 220. And every club has followed suit, more distance and accuracy. And I am just a hack around player.
