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.

[@user-rw9ot8mz4l]

This is actually a pretty clear differentiation. If you're replacing your driver then the Callaway is the better club. If you're looking for more of a utility club at the top end of the bag then it's the Burner.

[@Chris54321]

That is a great statement. That said, I don't think Rick would ever go with a mini driver as his longest club.

[@Mmeeks99]

Agree 💯

[@lawbinson]

But didn't the Brnr win as a driver at the end of the video?

[@brumfiba]

Seems like the Callaway is a small driver and the TM is more of a juiced 3 wood.

[@jeromekemmer8148]

​@@lawbinson only for distance

[@cubuffs4life275]

Recently added the Burner 11.5* to the bag in place of my TSi-2 driver. About 10-15 yards less distance on well hit shots but I don't hit my driver that well to start. I hit twice as much fairways with the mini-driver and my scores have dropped. FWIW, I'm a bogey golfer.

[@samli5586]

Rick should have used a mini driver for his open qualifier… instead of his 3 iron. He would have shaved a few shots.

[@aaronmcfee506]

I was thinking that when I was watching his round, this is why Rick people these in their bag so they can hit fairways

[@TonyRotella]

Marty Jertsen (PING VP of Fitting) talked about mini drivers on the PING Proving Grounds podcast a few times, and also in the WITB they posted on the PING YT channel. PING did some data analysis and found that players that drove the ball 300 yards or farther tended to use the 3-wood off the tee 90+ percent of the time. In this case, it makes a lot of sense to move to a mini, but also once you go mini driver and realize you're never hitting it off the deck, it makes sense to just carry a second driver like Finau did recently. Jertsen does the same - 12 degrees of loft and 2 or so inches shorter - so easy to hit. I started to do this and love the setup. Big driver goes 280, small driver goes 260.

[@josephfrigo8422]

Makes sense to me and I follow the same philosophy. I’m 305-310 with driver and never have a real need/use for a 3w. I’ve played a TM mini driver in the 3w spot for 4 years now and love it

[@mikec.2314]

I'm in the "2 driver camp" now for sure. G400 9.5 (45in playing length). TM Burner Mini 13.5 (down to 12). Best move I've made for my tee game in a while. Waaaaaay more fairways on tight holes with the Mini without a major distance penalty. Ditched the 3w.

[@macattack20100]

That callaway mini driver is a absolute no brainer to put in your bag rick. Play a round with it in the bag. Do a break 75 with it.

[@ndmagic99]

Brnr is an absolute unicorn for me. Best club i’ve used in 30 yrs. Averaging 284 off tee which is only 5 yrds shorter than my driver but it’s insanely more accurate and forgiving. Easy to hit off fairway as well.

[@pauldunn5712]

Same here. I was stuck on 8 handicap for ages. Added the mini burner to the bag, found way more fairways and am now 4.9. It's made such a difference.

[@noskillzleague]

what would you recommend, 13.5 or 11.5? I'm not great by any means, driver is ok consistency, 13 HC. I am not sure why you would pick one over the other.

[@ndmagic99]

@@noskillzleague i’m a lefty so mine only came in 11.5 which is what i have it set on. I can crank down or up 2 degrees but 11.5 has been ideal. If u want a driver replacement, go 11.5

[@JoseFlores-xg5nq]

Seems like Rick didn’t want to admit that the Taylormade is better than the Callaway. I hate Taylormade but it looked like Rick was swinging it better with the mini Burner.

[@jazon8877]

Yet all the numbers outside of distance are in favor of the Callaway Mini driver what are you talking about????

[@jazon8877]

The dispersion was way better in “power” mode while also being better in every way (including distance) in standard mode according to the numbers

[@jsmedina777]

Love the mini driver reviews. My set up goes Driver (Callaway Rogue St Max set at 8 degrees, Taylormade Mini Driver set at 13 degrees and then 3 wood (Cobra Aerojet set at 16.5 degrees. I don’t hit far, driver 255, mini driver off the tee 240 off the deck 230, 3 wood 215.

[@paulgreen8228]

I love the old school Taylor made mini driver, just smash mine, find the fairway so much more often😊

[@arpus1995]

Is it me or is there a missed opportunity to show us something other than a 2019 driving range. I would think it would be pretty nice to use that 20k golf software and throw up a great 425 par 4 with a tighter fairway to show us the advantage/how straight a mini driver can be with an actual par 4? Love the channel and Rick and his team do an amazing job with the videos, just saying that could take it to another level.

[@marcusc8760]

I know immediately id choose TM. It is a beefed up 3 Wood and significant size change where the Callaway is just a toned down driver. So there is no significant change. I watched Rory's Video hitting the Burner and it was incredible to watch. Lazer straight over n over again. For the sake of boasting who is further i would take an all around better club and shot selection options so TM wins for me... I also feel Rick is an AB-TM - Anything But - Taylor Made.

[@Calmdown1354]

I've had both and would definitely say the Callaway has the edge. It goes a little further, and is actually the more forgiving of the two. The only thing I could see the TM winning on is hitting off the fairway, but this is something I never did or will probably ever try. I have no bias and have had both these in the bag, hope it helps 👍

[@mickbanner]

The Burner was so much nicer shots. (One dodgy pull ruined the numbers). Making the fairway is key. I think its less flashy, but a better club for Rick

[@fretless05]

That was a Battle Royale! It was interesting that the BRNR was the same on and off a tee. Even fairways don't hit like that. I had actually thought the Callaway would shine cranked down and weight front, but it just seemed to go too high to get to 300, the BRNR beat it, which was a surprise! I wish the stores near me had both to test and compare for my swing, as I just really struggle with driver.

[@brandondornan9524]

Rick, I think a great future video would be, You vs. Guy. On a short course, or a course playing from the white tees, NO DRIVERS, Guy using TM mini, and Rick using Callaway mini! I would love to see that!!

[@GOLFER-ee9xk]

I have only ever tried the burner and it is incredible !! i usually use it to replace my driver off the tee but it doesn't go as far as my driver because of lofts, and is sooo easy to hit of the floor as well. The best driver/3 wood combo club ever. Well done Taylormade

[@niklaswahl3287]

Love my Burner 11,5 (plays 12) replaced my Radspeed. I lost like 20 yards but I’m always in play. Also easy to hit off the deck on both fairway and in the ruff! Just love it!

[@tylerschram2856]

I play the Taylormade mini Driver and if you really wanna optimize that club use a counter balanced shaft and it changes everything, I am club fitter and I ran myself through a fitting with Ventus TR blue and Tensei pro orange and the pro orange being counter balanced offered more consistent spin rates on all hits across the face too. Ventus was everywhere and I play TR blue in every wood but the mini driver

[@travman39]

Been playing the Callaway for a few days, it’s been so fun to have the in bag! Shooting well with it also, the 13.5 fits perfectly between my 9 degree AI smoke Triple and my 16.5 degree AI smoke 3 wood HL!

[@Retiredgoat24]

Thanks Rick! Been debating the mini drivers you just helped make up my mind on the Taylormade

[@billtokunaga4883]

Received my Callaway 11.5 yesterday. I stopped using a driver when the head sizes went to 460....I've used an original Steelhead 3+ and 4+ until last fall when I put an Apex UW17 in the bag. The first swing with the MINI in factory settings, 240ish carry, and dead straight. That trend never changed in my practice session yesterday. Since I'm so against the VW on a stick, this is my tee club, although I was able to get it airborne off the deck. Weights and loft adjusted to max now... We'll see what that does on the course tonight!

[@MrPanderific]

I’d like to see a comparison on a delofted 3 wood vs the brnr.

[@oatechaosincycles]

I have a Titleist TSI2 3 wood turned up to 14 degrees. It goes much further than that brnr. I tasted it at PGA Tour Super store. Titleist equipment is just quietly better. Hence why the prices never drop on it.

[@cabrowder5]

You should do a new burner mini driver vs the old SLDR mini driver…. New vs old … different tech in the clubs

[@grahamgregg3006]

I was ready to buy the Taylor Made but unfortunately, none now available. I've decided to put my 4 wood shaft in the TSi1 driver head and see what the results are. Waiting for the shaft adapter to arrive and remember to correct the swing weight as it will likely be much lower with the shorter shaft. Fingers crossed I get some good results🤞

[@capnhook33_]

I have an 11.5 brnr and part of me got it for nostalgia because i had an old burner driver back in the day but part of me got it because i was looking for help at the top of the bag. The 11.5 degree one is really a rocketship. I didnt even consider the 13.5 because i was really looking for a driver replacement. For whatever reason with my swing i square the club up a lot more with this and it still goes 265 or so. I haven't found success hitting it off the deck, but i love it as a tee club. Its let me go mini, 4 wood, 19° 3h, 4i at the top and im sure the more i play with it the better ill score.

[@lawbinson]

I think for golf in windy conditions, these are better options than long irons off the tee. Weight forward, hit it like a fairway wood but teed up a centimeter and it's just so good.

[@gregbarthjr9621]

Truly enjoyed this test. I struggle with consistency with a standard driver. I love my TM copper mini burner driver. Fairways Found!!! Keep up the great work. Cheers!

[@robertflint4115]

I am a late bloomer to golf (58) and only started playing last year. So sorry if this is a silly question but, what is the advantage of a mini-driver over say your 3 wood? If so good, shouldn't everyone carry one then? Thanks and love the content Rick. 🤘😎

[@danp9646]

Burner!!

[@timdetrick3837]

I have last years brnr mini, love it. Has replaced my driver almost completely, save for big par 5s usually. Is also a good distance filler between the 3 wood and driver

[@montegustafson5142]

How about a review of the latest TM Mini Burner compared to the actual original one (which I think came with a Bubble Shaft)? Would be very interested to see the difference in performance.

[@ronniedasilva8973]

Callaway has never failed me, whether it's woods or irons. Tried Taylormade, Ping, McGregor... I am and will always be a Callaway dude. I have the Callaway Mini, absolutely love it.

[@rufussthoo4083]

I haven't tried either and probably won't. I can't afford to give up 10-15 yards, and because I'm not a long hitter, my driver misses aren't too offline/punishing anyway. But if I was going to look at them, the Callaway is better looking but the TM seems to be more versatile. I’d go for the Burner. But then again, I've never gotten along very well with TM drivers or fairway metals. Maybe I'd go for the Callaway 😅

[@BarryStanky]

I have the 11.5 degree TM Burner Mini in my bag as my primary driver. I love it. It replaced my TM SIM2 Max, which I loved. I get pretty much the same distance as I did with the SIM2 Max but with for more accuracy and confidence. I do not hit it off the deck. I still carry a Stealth 2 3W and a couple hybrids for those shots.

[@nikmc7539]

Please try some performance shafts. Throw the CQ or VR in both then go head to head or old faithful “orange one”. I don’t know which would suit your swing best but I’d guess CQ or DI

[@MrPastySteve]

I hit the TM- liked it amd was on the fence for a while but really just played far too similar to my 3 wood to make sense buying it. Bought the new Callaway and hit it today for the first time and absolutely love it, around 30 yards behind my standard driver. Far more accurate and feels much nicer than the TM mini, quite a bit louder though. Surprisingly just as easy to hit off the deck as my 3 wood so it's staying in the bag and 3 wood just gone on marketplace.

[@joshholmes]

Rick - I loved the TM. I would love to see you do a similar comparison between the TM and a three wood.

[@PConlin7]

Really enjoyed this video. I have the 2024 Mini Brnr. I have the weight set up to the back and have it set to 13.5 degrees. Off the tee it's fantastic. It's so much straighter than my TSR3 driver. I dont think ive hit my TSR more than 3 times since ive had the Mini. I hit it anywhere from 290-330 consistently. Its such a fantastic tool to have.

[@user-zx8vc5ro5m]

Is you consistently the fairway??? Cause a 40 yard , 290/330 is 40 yards difference, 40 yard difference is no consistent.

[@PConlin7]

@@user-zx8vc5ro5m I would disagree. It’s consistently in the fairway yes. The type of hole I’m playing plays a huge part. Some roll more than others. Some are uphill, some are down. Nobody on earth it’s a drive the same distance every time.

[@MichaelSisley-fw3xr]

I too agree it depends upon what missions you have for the club. I have an old Bang Golf 14 degree 3W as my driver, with a 42" shaft. I can hit the darn thing pretty straight, not far, those days are history, but straightish, definitely in the short grass. I am more a plinker, course management player. Other people, they will have diverse needs. I'm a mid-handicap player. I carry 5W, 7W, 9W, 11W, 7i-PW, and 52, 56, 60, 68 wedges. Find what helps you, use it, and practice lag putting a lot to 2 or 3 feet. Everyone can cut their scores using what fits their game/swing, course management, and lag putting to makable range.

[@Johnnyhamcheck1]

U have an 11w?

[@MichaelSisley-fw3xr]

@@Johnnyhamcheck1 Yes, 31 degrees. Works like a champ. The ball gets high and pretty much stops or bounces a little. Those fairway woods are labeled Concord, a knock off component, but they work. I build my own clubs. Woods work well for me. I play with a guy that plays hybrids all the way down to pitching wedge. Old man golfers we are. Our little group still can post decent scores, just not a very exciting sight to see. Dink down the middle, chip on, one or two put, next hole. The longer par 5 holes, might take us 4 to get on, but the par 3 and 4 holes we can make up ground.

[@tonystone2408]

Not too far off the normal driver but straighter. Would like to see you do video with your current driver at ten and a half and eleven and half degrees and see if the dispersion is better without sacrificing too much distance.

[@ThePublicGolfers]

Great review, think it depends on the player and what they want the club to do. Taylormade gives options, Callaway a true driver replacement.

[@pauldunn5712]

As a user of the TM mini burner as a 3 wood replacement I have 2 observations here. 1. Ball was too far forward, hit it more like a 3 wood hitting down instead, they perform better. 2. When you crank the TM mini down 2 degrees you actually open the club face 4 degrees also. People need to be aware of that as the TM and Callaway adapters are completely different. Callaway adapter can stay square. The TM performed brilliantly off the deck in this video, killed it.

[@Steve-jq4st]

I dropped both my driver and three wood for the BRNR.

[@massey8]

I did the same. Was having driver issues, the burner is just amazing. And I can hit off the deck, thinking of getting a 5 wood now

[@jesselanderos536]

I think for sure you need to play a round with it and see if that give you more confidence than that 3 iron. I think this would carry over to the regular driver like just seeing more fairways hit

[@alexjennings3165]

I would like to see you play a few rounds with a normal driver and a few rounds with a mini driver and compare your driving stats--fairways hit, strokes gained, distance etc.

[@ecjaye]

I sell clubs....Callaway is running hot right now with this new AI mini and the TD Max. Off the deck you'll still need a traditional 3 or 4 wood.

[@jerrywilson5472]

I'm truly old school I like an idea Sam Sneed had in his book on the game. A 1.5 wood or a two wood on a driver shaft can still use as a driver or hit it off the deck.

[@JDSFLA]

I hope more mini-drivers are on the way from other brands, and that they will NOT be limited volume editions like the two tested here which makes it difficult to get one even if you want it.

[@lynyrd583]

Rick - the color of the TM is "Copper." As in a penny made of Copper.

[@WilliamWright-hf8ob]

I have them both ( each 11.5 ) and the Taylor made wins it for me, way easier off the deck and great off the tee but if you are buying one of these to replace a driver because you struggle off the tee then the Callaway might be the better choice for you with the larger head and I too find it to play the left side more.

[@GKelly26]

I love the look of the TaylorMade. Would love to replace my 3 wood with it

[@davidbarnes32]

I loved the previous version of the Taylormade mini but couldn't really use it well off the deck. Is the new version easier. Off the tee it looked as if you set up as if it was a standard driver. I was told to set up as if using a 3 wood and to also use a lower tee. Wrong?

[@wickedswinggolf2387]

I have last year TaylorMade Mini driver and I really enjoy it. Use it on and off the tee. I was tempted with the Callaway mini driver just because it looks so damn good.

[@zwaager]

The Taylormade is clearly your better club. Great video tho. I have the same swing speed and can't find a reason to deviate from my 3W for something that does the same job but is harder to hit. The Nike Ignite drivers/woods are just built different!

[@kingoftheheath3755]

I have tested both in a sim and on the course. Was testing as a pure driver replacement, so heavy weight at front and 11.5. Callaway won for me, better distance, dispersion and feel. Both very good though.

[@Ammers1604]

What height are these meant to be teed up at? Is the premise to keep them low and hit like fairway wood, or high like your normal driver (or just lower) given face depth?just got the callaway mini in 11.5,looking for a bit more consistency as driver is either hit or miss.not tried it yet but would appreciate a heads up before i do. 20 handicapper btw

[@alleybuilds5370]

I have last years model of the Taylormade mini driver, It has the full carbon top and all black so it looks better than this years model. But i love this club, Super easy to hit! Favorite club in the bag!

[@andrewglossop4415]

Keep the reviews coming, Rick. Very enjoyable

[@troyjacobs8109]

Rick, put that burner mini in your bag as a 3wood. You were striping that thing and for holes where driver is too much you were pretty consistent with it off the tee. I agree the callaway is more suited for off the tee but in reality I think what you still are searching for is an Ole Bluey replacement. I dont think the ping is the answer I think your answer is the burner mini. Great review of both as always.

[@CarlZ17007]

Would it make sense to carry a 13.5 degree 3 wood plus or one of the “max” 3 woods at 15 degrees? Seems like you get a like bigger head than your standard 3 wood so you could tee off with it but it’s easier to hit off the deck?

[@markromano1003]

Would be very interested in some additional data on how much shorter these clubs are om average than Rick's normal 9 or 10.5 degree Driver distance. Also, what would his bag look like? Does he ditch the Driver? Or if he keeps the Driver and Mini what is the next club in his bag? An 18 degree 5W or maybe a 19 degree 3H or just his 3 iron?

[@lawbinson]

Love mini drivers! The retro styling looks great on the TM.

[@daviddean-ix5hk]

You need to turn the taylormade head cover inside out, it would make it worth so much more 👍

[@philiegolf48]

Mini Burner all day long more versatile proving more useful in the bag, love the retro looks 👌🏻 I think the AI smoke size is probably too big to be a 3 wood replacement if you still plan to carry a driver, The TM would easily sit next a driver in the bag for fairway finding and long par 5's

[@chadode9048]

Burner seemed more versatil. Either way, its a nitpik - great review!

[@craigtaylor9770]

Hey Rick. A very valid comparison. But, I feel for a good player like you, who can also drive it well, the mini-drivers are always just going to be a club which you can hit well, goes shorter than the driver, and doesn't quite offer the versatility of a fairway wood. For the elite, like Tommy Fleetwood who carries a min-driver, they are so good that they can use it as a juiced 3-wood for par 5s, or tight tee shots. For me there is only one fundamental question that need answering for the average golfer who cannot keep the driver on the planet, and maybe only carries a 3/5 wood max is, is this going to offer 10-20 yards more than their 3/5 wood, with more accuracy than their efforts with driver. If so, then I absolutely see a place for these clubs for the masses. 10-20 yards, somewhat straight, can mean 1-2 clubs less on approach. I haven't really seen anyone do this type of comparison.

[@mistersooty]

Just goes to show how subjective looks are. I LOVE the colours and retro vibe of the TM. The Callaway really does look like the 'kids version'. I don't know whether I'd use one of these but just based on looks it would be TM hands down for me.

[@Missin44]

I really like your reviews. It would be very cool to see some GolfWorks Maltby reviews go against the major brands.

[@thewaygokid3135]

If you are just looking for more fairways off the tee I would explore a shorter shaft for your current driver. You might be surprised. These are easier out of the fairway so that’s a plus.

[@pickin4you]

I just ordered the Callaway last week. Supposed to be here tomorrow. They told me because I asked and they quoted the specs to me saying it would go up 2 degrees and down 2 degrees. So why does yours only go down one?? I did order the 11.5. 13.5 is way too much loft for me.

[@AndreaWrba-t2y]

Even though it is fun to see all these tests with clubs but never clubs for women are tested or shown. Maybe this could be added to make the picture complete!

[@bencaird687]

It's good to see options for people who don't like big headed drivers. I have been playing with a cobra long Thom 2 wood for the last 10 years! Time to replace it with one of these I think, just waiting for the @rickshiels giveaway 😜

No one is buying a mini-driver to hit off the deck, that's what 3 woods are for. These clubs should just be marketed as fairway finders.

That callaway in 11.5 needs to go in your bag, rick. Pretty much every fairway and 280 you would be scoring better.

[@jcastelot08]

Love the retro look of the Taylormade. With Callaway basically making a smaller version of their driver, I think this is the direction the tour should go in to address distance issues. Roll back the driver size. Public can still purchase the same clubs but the professionals use smaller versions.

[@markhowarth90]

I know Rick says his reviews are unbiased and they all are BUT on this occasion you can tell Rick wants the Callaway to win as a little part of him wants it in the bag 😁

[@FiftyLibros]

Well, it’s no surprise that you hit better the club that you like the most, isn’t it. If you have such a huge bias before even doing the comparative trial, it’s gonna definitely affect it. I think it’s very bold and refreshing for tailor-made to do a throwback retro look.

[@kevingowdy3651]

losing a few yards off the tee has to be acceptable if your score is going to come down. It just means your approach irons need to be on point. Great battle of the big names! 👏👏

[@paulbiscione8168]

Honestly, as much fun as the video was, it isn’t a fair test regardless. The BRNR is only 304cc while the Calloway is 340…big difference. It’s like saying you’re comparing a standard driver to the 340cc mini. Obviously the Calloway will go a touch further as it is bigger. I actually own the BRNR mini in an 11.5. It’s an outright beast. I typically outdrive my buddies who have regular size drivers.

I'm a newbie in golf, in fact I'm just playing par 3 courses (I only hit irons so far). Would it make sense to start with a mini driver of those instead of going with a driver on the big course?

[@lawbinson]

Possibly. A lot of the trouble most newer players run into with the Driver is that it's the only club you hit up on. Everything else, you hit neutral or down on. With a mini driver, you can hit it more neutral like a fairway wood. So, there's less to get used to as a newer player.

@@lawbinson makes sense, thank you!

It looks like the best way to reduce driver distance is to reduce the head sizes! Forget about changing the golf ball!

Bigger don’t add distance. The Calloway was shorter, obviously 10 yards shorter.3 woods will go 280,
