@@stuartellison6895 I'm struggling to break 80 at the moment. I typically shoot in the mid 80s With the occasional low 80s and shocking high 70s I'm not far away but I will get there. It's all about being a little more aggressive on the course.
Rick its great to see your game improving this year....note to the editor: can we see the guests scores like we see Rick's? It would be great to see what Guy or whoever is at along with Rick.
You have to get in the zone, relax, breath, see the shot in your mind before hitting it. It's hard to stay there when a round takes 5 or 6 hours to play but you only need to do it when hitting the shot. I'm 64 started playing when I was 7, I play my best when I'm aggressive and relaxed, hit the ball go get the ball and not be too concerned about much else.
@@Pulse2AM I’m only 22, but have been playing for roughly 10 years. The biggest struggle I’ve been dealing with now is that I’m concerned about keeping up with the group in front like you should be, but in a slow round I don’t take enough time on lining up putts even though I have all the time in the world
@@ryanhnatowich1085 Do you have a pre-shot routine? Mine is take one or two practice swings to get a feel for the lay of the land, stand behind the ball and pick my target, what kind of shot I want to hit, visualize it, then step up and execute. Putting is not much different, I don't read from the side, the back then the other side only from behind the ball looking at the hole. Local knowledge helps though if you play the same course a lot you get that knowledge. There are some good books on sports and visualization, worth picking one up as the mind is a powerful force in sports and golf. I'm a 7 handicap, would be lower if I were able to practice and play more.
@@Pulse2AM Not trying to one up or anything, but im currently a 5 handicap. I havent been able to shoot as good this year because the club im a member at is redoing their range so i havent been able to warm up before rounds. I have a pre shot routine for all shots. Inside 80 yards ish and putts, I do practice swings, but not for full length shots. Full swing shots I kinda stand behind the ball and visualize how i want to hit the shot then just line up and hit it
After the first 11 holes I was like “I’m so excited to get out and play some golf!” After the end I thought “mmm, maybe I’ll just go to the range for a bit.”
What's helpful is watching you handle those tough shots and trying your best to shake of the errant shot. For someone as skilled as you, you handle tough holes with such humility. What an admirable quality. Well done, Rick.
Well played Rick, golf always amazes me. Still can’t believe you didn’t chip out sideways on the 18th, we’ve all done it in the heat of the moment we make bad decisions when watching it at home I was literally shouting at the phone “take your medicine” also shows how a break in concentration and momentum can make you lose your rhythm. You were literally on fire 🔥 until the halfway house. Again I’ve been there so many times but watching someone do it on film gives it more impact and will make me more aware of my decisions in future rounds
Love Lytham. Watched Monty warm up on the practice round probably twenty five years ago or thereabouts . Stunning. John Daly alongside. His caddy (early in the morning) wandered off and got two huge hamburgers. I assumed one each but, no. Two for the incredible Daly. Both hit the ball bloody miles.
Only been swinging golf clubs 4 mos, when I started at suite shots in Fargo Nd. Started out hitting a Callaway X hot driver 150 or so. Last night I hit 235 with a 4H and a broken foot with a knee high CAM boot on. This morning I hit a Strata 5 iron 200 yds with with my boot on because this man explained how to hit an iron. The wrists being bent, keep swing in front of the body and shoulder before knee. Furthermore we all like bottoms but don't bottom out to soon or late 😄 . Now I'm out swinging my local PGA pros, or at least one of them..😁 Thank you!
Camera/Editing team..... Im 3 minutes in but had to pause to say that the colour grading and cinematic depth of field effects in the video are simply stunning!! Please keep this up! Special mention to the jump zoom at 1:17 awesome!
I've noticed if I have a break on the 9th I can play rubbish after. It must be cooling down to much or something. Your putting is amazing. Saved you so many times. Thanks
Don't wann come of as a fanboy here but I've never once had an interest in golf but absolutely enjoy these videos watched near enough all of them in past couple month and went to play for first time other day passion for the game is growing well and truly got me into golf from nowhere with the passion you speak about the game excellent Channel and great entertainment cheers Rick
Rick, this was a great video. I watched your very first video again the other day. It was a cool thing to go back to and check out. I have been watching you for years and your channel is the best out here. There are quite a few good English guys with channels but yours is top notch. This is on par (pun intended) with any professional network now. Your camera folks, editors, chefs kiss. This is perfection. Great round mate. Thanks for the tips from Virginia Beach, VA in the good ole USA. BACK TO BACK world wars champs. Lol. 🇺🇸
Firstly Rick and Guy. Both looking Trim. The running and new haircut really working 😉 One of my favourite Break 75 episodes. Just good vibes between you both and looked like a gorgeous day! Keep it up!
Rick you’ve improved dramatically over the series just in consistency and especially the short game. Eliminate the one or two bad holes in the round and you’d be level par or better! Trending the right way!
I thought you played great Rick, and honestly love when Guy is out there, I wish I had a friend or even a playing partner like him, first class for sure,thank you
I had a nearly hole in one live on sky sports ,playing in the British disabled open ,and still have the clip,great video great nearly in de hole 🔥🔥🔥👏🏼👏🏼👍🏻🙏🏼
Glad to see you back enjoying and playing well Rick. If I am having a nightmare, I leave the driver in the bag and hit 2 iron off the tee. Think it resets me and gets me thinking differently! Great video and congrats on money raised so far for charity!
Rick you need to play more with Guy more often cause he compliments your game so much more than you think and the banter is quality, 👍 for another cracking video.
Really just a bit of a strategy issue on the last. You could hit any club in any of those bunkers, way better off trying to hit over the first set of them at the very least. Whether you broke 75 or not, you're really playing some great golf Rick! Great to see :)
Great video. Just goes to show that one should never ever relish in a good score until you've rolled in the 18th. It just takes you out of your focus and commitment. TW has the habit of not checking his score if can avoid it. I know for myself that if I realize I carded a +5 on the front nine, I will most certainly lose my head and spiral into concentration oblivion and get sacked on the back. But huge turn in your confidence there Rick. Excellent. And super work on the filming and editing Guy(s).
Hey Rick, I know you review a lot of sets. You’ve done Stix twice now. Any plans to compare them to Robin? They’re competitors and I feel that it would be a good comparison video for casual golfers.
Wow. Bro. “The Wink” at the beginning. My fav spot. I will say… get her done my bro. “That is golf.” Rick Shiels. “It’s why we play.” Me. ✌️❤️🤘 Pick for “The Open?” (Yes. Real question.)
Rick watch bunker on 18th shot-looks like you are taking the wedge inside on backswing-bad move out of bunker my friend especially close to the face of bunker Good Round nice course
The major thing I've learned from this season of #Break75, especially as someone who usually plays solo, is that everyone needs a Guy! I'm sure I'd play better and enjoy it more if I had a playing partner with that level of positivity and hype.
Very good, very nice. Taking it to Erik with the production level, Rick and team 😉👍 clickbait thumbnail and title ftw too 😉 - Also, I know you've been doing it forever but I don't think people realise how much having the camera on you has an impact on your game, from a mindset pov. Anyway, thanks, love this series.
I guess I'll have to get in the clubhouse to know what Guy shot. currently on episode 71 of the podcast. thanks for another great episode. break 75 in an awesome series
Turning off the US Open bang on 4:00pm to watch this and tbh much better entertainment!! Love the episode love the series love the show and love the podcast. Keep going
Ah Ricky, "Would you look at this rough?" Come on, wispy, patchy, thin rough...The course I play has decided to combat high gasoline prices by drastically reducing the mowing rotation of the first cut and rough in half, maybe less if the truth be told... I would LOVE, LOVE to have the rough you pointed out ... Just sayin'... But superb vid as always...
Friday 4pm, Break75, the weekend starts here
oh yeahh!!!
Yeah I want to know what everyone shoots
@@stuartellison6895 After 4pm?.....75..+30....ish

Great video Rick! The video quality looks amazing. Props to the film crew
Great series 👏, would like to see distances and club selection in the top right with the score 👍
It’s beginning to become my routine to watch the new episode every Friday during my lunch break. Phenomenal series, Rick!
right there with u. great little pick me up halfway thru the work day
Add that with a lunch from Domino's, and you got the best afternoon anyone can ask for......
This series is such a rollercoaster ride, just fun to watch. Great content, love it!
After the first 11 holes I was like “I’m so excited to get out and play some golf!” After the end I thought “mmm, maybe I’ll just go to the range for a bit.”
I have never and never will choose a range over time on an actual course lmao that is blasphemy
If you dont have the stamina 18 holes can be too much. 9 holes much more doable
@@JP-rw5cd that’s usually a big difference between amateurs and pros. The pros choose range all day
@@scottcamuto8410 love me a 9 hole course
@@ThrillerTTV I just don't have enough time to do both so I'd rather be out there ,wish I had more time unfortuantly
Great opening 9. Back side? Well...how about a break 80 with Guy? Thanks for the video mates. 🍻✌🏻⛳
This content is exactly what we want! Love watching this series Rick. Incredible videos.

When you book a round how much time do you ask to do all filming or do people play through???
Also, well in on your Walk 150 👏
I've noticed if I have a break on the 9th I can play rubbish after. It must be cooling down to much or something. Your putting is amazing. Saved you so many times. Thanks
Love watching these. I am taking so many tips from them and it is helping my game so much.
Conclusion:
Never take break when you have the momentum going.....never.....
You two are both looking great! All those miles are paying off. Great camera 🎥 work!

Keep it up!
Rick you played well this week just keep playing well! And get to play such beautiful courses that I could only imagine playing living here in US
Production team are knocking this out of the park!
Great video guys.
awesome round of golf. Feels like the 18th hole was karma from the 18th hole in St-Andrews!!!
Rick you’ve improved dramatically over the series just in consistency and especially the short game. Eliminate the one or two bad holes in the round and you’d be level par or better! Trending the right way!
Production value is always going up. Always looking forward to these videos on Friday.
You’re getting there Rick! Love the content. And I love your shoes! What kind of kicks are those?!
This is the only way to start the weekend. Keep up the great videos 👍
Some absolute fantastic golf here Rick! I’m so happy to see your game improving!
Well done, Rick. Way to stay with it.
Well done Rick! Great to see you find some form - hopefully it continues
Rick your golf is definitely on the way up. Better iron shots and your putter has improved so much
I love watching you play well
Love the context Rick, keep it up! Watched you start your journey the other day at prestwick!
Its so funny how you fell apart on the back nine. It hits to close to home 😂😂
This video was so good I nearly donated... Production values appreciated in this flagship series 👏👏👏
I thought you played great Rick, and honestly love when Guy is out there, I wish I had a friend or even a playing partner like him, first class for sure,thank you
LOVING this series. More golf with Guy!
Already watched four and 1/4 times, absolutely brilliant.
Rick Shiels is So Pure
Hey rick, i am a 10 marker, and today was my lucky day coming in with 75! love the vdeos
That front 9 was class!
The highs and lows of golf in one video! Great content as always.. Why do we love this sport...?
Yes RS great golf mate and another great video...loving the playing partner
Class video as per !! And as per the 150 mile walk for charity , jeeezzz what a guy 🙌👏🏼
I had a nearly hole in one live on sky sports ,playing in the British disabled open ,and still have the clip,great video great nearly in de hole 🔥🔥🔥👏🏼👏🏼👍🏻🙏🏼

It's great to see Guy cheering Rick on, and trying to keep him from overthinking his bad shots
My favorite break 75 this far. Let's go sir
Rick that course is a killer, so many bunkers and when the wind blows wow it is a beast, as you say the rough, eveil stuff, it is a tough challenge
I thought that was an ACE for a minute there Rick!
My house backs on to this beautiful course. You should have given me a shout, I'd have put the kettle on.
Phenomenal series Rick 👏
Good shooting! Enjoyed it
That first 11 you were starting to look like the Rick Shiels of old! Nice round, and nice course 😊
Love the break 75 series
Golf is such a mind game.
Great video, we Kit Kat break knocked ya of your stride🙈
Really just a bit of a strategy issue on the last. You could hit any club in any of those bunkers, way better off trying to hit over the first set of them at the very least. Whether you broke 75 or not, you're really playing some great golf Rick! Great to see :)

Great content as usual and fantastic to see open venues but it would be good to see how Guy scores for the day.
This show should be on the Golf Channel.
The Rick Shiels putter has been much better lately
Always happens, when your on a good game just walk past the halfway house as tempting as it is aways knocks me out my stride 🤣
Rick you should come play in Canada! Course like Bear Mountain would be a great test for ya! Would also be very different from UK courses
Guy you're lookin' fit my friend, keep it up.
OMG - that open face wedge thin.. that was me on Wednesday. Nightmare. I feel your pain.
That break put so much pressure on you and got you off your game
When you play well you play very good golf
Guy taking the hand me down eccos, nice!
love your channel, inspired me to keep on playing golf!!!
Love it Rick!
The video quality looks so amazing 🤩👌
Seems like on this course you should have brought your 70 degree wedge haha
Hey Rick, I know you review a lot of sets. You’ve done Stix twice now. Any plans to compare them to Robin? They’re competitors and I feel that it would be a good comparison video for casual golfers.

Pick for “The Open?” (Yes. Real question.)
12:20 - Guy needs to tell Rick that a foot isn't actually the length of his foot 🤣
The bunkers on this course are soo intimidating
Definitely blame the lack of sausage roll at the halfway house, changed everything!
Ice if you broke every time 72, you are playing tour. When you are “actor” you play almost perfect😂⛳️👍
Rick watch bunker on 18th shot-looks like you are taking the wedge inside on backswing-bad move out of bunker my friend especially close to the face of bunker Good Round nice course

I never knew Guy had such a beautiful swing
those pins are nice!
