Hi I’m Rick Shiels, welcome to my channel RickShielsPGAGolf. This TH-cam 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.
These irons have been reviewed by a million other TH-camrs but I still waited patiently for Rick’s review to decide between them or T200. THIS IS THE POWER AND TRUST of the Rick Shiels.
Really wish he would do some takomo and sub 70 reviews. I'm in the market but don't have the funds for anything over $800.
Right now Cleveland iron sets are 799 Canadian. They are pretty much like srixons. Uhx or launcher irons. Not the hybrid looking ones.
@@1104blakeI have a set of takomo 201’s and can say they are pretty fantastic in my opinion. I had some Mizuno mp63s I replaced and they feel very similar and perform great
Mizuno ;)
Try Wilson's D9 forged they feel great fully forged head not just the face like other makes and look gorgeous
Would love to see a head to head vs previous years of this club since there was a bit of difference apparently!
This is exactly what is needed
That is what I mentioned in another video.would love a golf channel to have the comparisons of what I see on computer component channels. I can base my next CPU versus cpus from 10 years ago because they show it each time they test new stuff.
I feel like improvement in golf clubs, particularly in irons, is too thin between years, to the point the variation in a golfer's performance is likely to gobble it 95% of the time. Comparing a club with its previous version may result in bad press, and therefore less sales. Also, numerous reviewers might run out of business if golfers realized that ... Just a thought.
I still think they should do such a comparison. Big brands should expect their claims to be thoroughly challenged when they present a new club, so we know they believe in it if they put it on the market.
Would you jump from 21 to 23 models? Probably not. Would one jump from 19 to 23? Well I wouldn’t as I play the 7MCs, but having hit the 790s they are really good but really weird at the same time with random “flyers” off fairways, etc.
Why anyone needs to know the differences, albeit minor, over 4 years from the internet is beyond me - get fitted
EP Golf Studios (another Brit channel) did comparison between the 2021 and new 2023 P 790s twelve days ago. Check it out but BLUF there is very minimal difference
Well done Rick -- another honest review. I have to say that the more I watch H.I.T. the more impressed I am with your commitment to not "sell out" -- I'm sure plenty of these manufacturers would pay you well for positive reviews. Your honesty in the lab and on the course is refreshing. Thank you for sticking to who you are.
I’m sure Taylormade would love to pay Rick to redo this Lmao
I had just bought the "old" P-790 before the new ones came out and I had been kicking myself for getting them just before the new model came out.
This lightened my worry. Thanks Rick
I love my 21 set of P790’s. They are by far my favorite set of irons ever , they are accurate and feel amazing they will be in my bag for a hot minute.
I am really happy for Rick with this new channel. His devotion towards this is through the roof. I know HIT will be HUGE someday
Sorry I'm replying to your comment. It wouldn't let me put my own down. I have last years p770. Hit knock down shots. Less swing speed will go 10m further
Someday? …
Went into club champion several weeks ago for an iron fitting. After a chat about my golf goals and hitting my own irons to warm up we started narrowing down the field. Tried the brand new 2023 P790’s. Really nice looking. Didn’t like the sound / feel. Jake had me try the 2023 T200’s. Huge difference for me. My son was with me and both the fitter and he saw an immediate improvement in contact, flight, and results. I noticed the sound and feel. Another tweak with shafts, both length and type, narrowed my dispersion even more. Nailed it. I Love hitting these irons thru the whole set. Was worth the extra cost of the fitting / irons.
My son plays the 2021 770’s. Loves them. His brother in law plays the previous model P790’s. Loves them. They were both fit. Do yourself a favor and get fitted. Find the right match for you.
Like the review. Very detailed. I hit both the T200 and P790, found both to be great clubs but the P790 was more consistent, felt more workable and easier to hit. I guess it all depends on the person, I’m a 4.7 index player and do not mind a forgiving iron. Still trying to decide but the P790 just look so good. Ty!
I had first edition of the p790 2021's and got these 2023's a few weeks ago and find these are way better. They have a better ball flight and are so soft on impact. A pleasure to hit! I have never hit especially long irons as well as I am now....
Dispersion matters a lot! That’s where we get killed on the short game.
Rick please do a review of all the highly rated forgiving irons and do a head-to-head! 😄
It’s the best day when a new H.I.T video comes out
Rick I have got to say, I really do enjoy and respect your opinion on clubs. You are the very first person I watch when I am going to buy golf clubs. I am actually in the market for some new clubs to replace my old 12 year old ones. Took a break from golf due to military duties, but now focused on improving my game. Thanks for the honestly. Its hard to find that when it comes to money and influence, but you have the backbone for honesty and you stand behind your opinion and it is much appreciated. Thank you.
I appreciate that Rick encourages everyone to test the irons for themselves as they may suit players and swings differently.
Still have my 1st gen P790 from 2017/2018 in the bag. Love them and they perform great, not sure the newer ones offer or deliver much more.
Love how honest Rick is 😂, fascinating to see the performance diffences between the clubs though regarding forgiveness
Please review the Mizuno Pro 225. If you do, I expect they’ll make it into your bag. Awesome irons!
They are so pure
This is the exact reason I love Rick.. no bullshit like other reviewers (looking at you James Robinson and that golf box Alex guy , that every club is the best that they have hit)
Would be curious to hear more about the shafts in the clubs when you test them. I had a fitting the other week and was amazed at the difference the shafts made. I didn’t get on with the new 790 regardless of shaft (I’ve also hit the current 770 quite a bit and didn’t gel) but the difference from stock to a heavier PX LZ shaft was stark. My T-150s with PX LZ’s arrive this week hopefully, but even these with the AMT shafts weren’t popping, for me the Project X made a world of difference.
4 years ago I went for my first iron fitting. I tried T200s and P790s (amongst others). Couldn't hit the P790s at all, walked away very happily with T200s. Fast forward to yesterday and I have another fitting following years of swing changes and feeling like I'm fighting my shaft combination a bit. The new T200s offered no change at all, albeit still good. The P790s added me 10 yards an iron for the same landing spin and angle. I think reviews like this are a great insight to the club characteristics, but ultimately the performance comes down to the player, the shaft combination, and how they deliver the club. It really is each to their own
The TXG Club Champion guys did a review on the P790s and found the same issue in the short irons and the possible gapping issues. Not so sure about the flighted CG only without the speed pocket in those shorter irons. Anyone considering these should watch that review. That would be a good review for you to do Rick. Just review all the short irons to see the drop off and possible gapping issues.
I've always admired Rick for what he does for all of us golfers on TH-cam, but maybe most of all, his unwavering honesty. Most people get a brand new club in their hands, and the excitement tends to overshadow our true opinions of what we're hitting. I mean, it's the brand new model, so it HAS to be better, right? Maybe not always. I trust Shiels because he doesn't have any equipment deals, and they still send him all the new stuff to try and to review. Who doesn't like free advertising, right?! Not every new club is going to be a "hole in one" type product, though. Just the nature of things. I would still check them out myself because you never know, but I certainly always take note of what the guy that gets free clubs off contract says about them as well! Great stuff, Rick & Co., and I'm STILL crazy jealous of that new H.I.T. studio!!!
Gotta love the honesty in this review! Appreciate that not every new club is praised just for the sake of it or to be considered as a reviewer for future new clubs as on the majority of golf channels.
Great insight Rick, but I do think that when you're surprised by a club underperforming like this, or your swing isn't at its peak, maybe come back the next day for another dozen balls, or better still, go grab Guy and maybe one of the mid handicap staffers, show us whether the clubs might work for them. It would add insight as I think that these are particularly important clubs to go to town on in the review. Anyway, great stuff, always good when I see a post on this new channel.
You somehow have the ability to make me save tons of money (by not just buying the newest most expensive club) and also make me want to spend huge amounts of money, but just always wanting to try new clubs.
Thank you Rick!
This is the problem with golf.
What I like about Rick is the honest and independent reviews. Well done!
I’ve had the 17 and 21 P790s. The 21 model is my favorite set of irons I’ve ever owned. I generally change my set every 3-4 years but I can see them in the bag for many years beyond that. They’re predictable to me, forgiving, and they feel great.
Agree with you totally. I’ve had MacGregor, Swilken, Ping and Mizunos through the years. Got P790s last summer and they are longest most forgiving irons I’ve ever owned, only negative that is well documented is how the hit low on the face can fly 10yards further.
Ive been looking at these 23 p790's and the more reviews i watch the more i feel like i should find some new 21's instead.
If you know what shaft you need etc then most PGA stores still have tons of them. I also prefer the looks of the 21 over the 23
The 2019 set are the best hands down.
I bought the 2021 P790’s, and this review makes me really happy about that purchase. I think they are the best looking iteration of the series, and now I don’t have FOMO on the 2023’s! Thanks Rick!
Everything Rick Shiels does is 💰 love you Rick keep up the golf content you make us all happy 😃
I bought the 2021 790's last year and love them. After watching this, I'm glad I didn't wait for the new ones to come out. It would be interesting to see the different in comparison for all 4 versions of the 790's.
New ones are loads better then the previous model… not even close… Loads more technology in each head softer better feel and sound etc… I have been gaming the 2021 models for over a year and just bought the p770/790 combo set and absolutely love the new ones over the old ones. I think Rick was just having a rough day with these lol…. Can’t base it on one TH-cam review… if you watch the other 2023 p790 reviews out there they are all nothing but positive feedback and coming from someone who’s gaming them they are amazing and by far TAYLORMADES best irons ever. Cheers mate ⛳️👍🏼🙂
@@silverlionbladesunfortunately most folks don't know Rick's usual go to when he's hitting it like shit, BLAME THE CLUBS OR BALL.
People should take this reviews with a grain of salt, and they don't,try the clubs yourself people!!
@@inb4230 💯 agree Rick usually doesn’t have bad days hitting the ball but clearly something was off in this review lol but yes everyone should try them out themselves and not just watch a video to decide what clubs they will buy next based on someone else’s opinion of them. 🍻👍🏼⛳️🙂
I would love to see these compared to the Callaway Apex. Great reviews, love the new channel
I just got my Mizuno JPX923 HM in. They are phenomenal. I replaced my over ten year old Nike SQ Machspeed iron that I games for years and years. It’s amazing how far the technology has come and the feel of these 923s are absolutely incredible. The looks are impeccable, as well. Very happy to play with these HMs for a very long time. Great job Mizuno.
Have the JPX 921 Hot Metal irons ,Love Them !!!
Great integrity, properly honest review. No pandering, just respect for us subscribers. Thank you Rick.
Great review! Looks like my 2021 p790's stay in the bag. From a looks standpoint, imo they rank:
1. 2023
2. 2017
3. 2021
4. 2019
I have hit these irons on the range and they are very nice indeed. The trick though that is often overlooked is fighting to get the exact right shaft for you. Most reasonably good golfers like an 8 handicap golfer always seem to fall for the marketing hype or the hype that they are at tour level spec so they buy shafts that are too heavy and too stiff for them. When you go for your custom fitting dont be intimidated by the fitter's recommendations either. Find the best feeling and best performing shaft for you whatever model of iron you choose. Its harder than you think and takes time.
I was really looking forward for this review. So nice that you can compare different clubs and be so consistent with the videos! The look of these clubs is stunning! I love how the channel is growing and the quality.
So the real question I think we’re all asking, is Rick are you giving the best all-around iron crown to the T200’s this year?
Hit the new 790s at a fitting yesterday, along with T200 and T350 plus Paradym. The Paradym was the best by far for me. Thanks for the honest review!
I got my set of P790s in yesterday and went out to the range today with them. I had a set of 2019 models prior. I switched more because the set I had were not fitted for me and were too upright. Fitting properly does have its advantages.
They might be a bit shorter (I don't know based on one range session) but the right fitting seems to make them a lot more accurate. I'll be interested to see if this translates to more GIRs on course. The long irons have a higher flight than the 2019s models. That is pretty obvious right off the bat. One problem I had with the 2019 models was the occasional flier that went 20 yards farther than expected. I haven't seen this with the new irons yet but, again, I can't really decide based on one range session.
Love and appreciate the depth and honesty of these reviews. It's a great mix of data driven analysis and commenting on the intangible things we loce about our gear. This is my favorite so far
I think Rick gives the most honest and true reviews of clubs.
Still playing the 2021 p790 irons & tbh wouldn't change them for the world 😉
Still have the original 2017 model, had them for 5 years and won't be changing anytime soon. Great Irons.
Great content and insight gents. Just a note. The volume of the music is a lot louder than the dialog so have to adjust the volume a lot. Cheers.
I tried a set of these and it added 10 shots to my rounds, I went back to my Mizuno MP32's, best irons ever made (IMO) and for blade like clubs very forgiving and don't get me started on when you hit a pure shot, for me nothing beats the feeling of a Mizuno.
Just got a set of 2023 P790 for the same price as outgoing 2021 model. both felt great.
I’ve got 770s and absolutely love them , on
Thing I’m not a fan of in the 700 series over the years is the little dirt catcher on the to , I think it would look nicer capped off
Great review as always Rick, the P790 are great irons but Titleist on top.
I'd love you to compare the T200 to the Wilson D9 forged. I game the latter and when I watch reviews I both see and hear that they preform similar to the D9, despite the latter being a few hundred bucks less expensive to the Titleists :)
Less than half the price now only £85 per club in the UK now
Am I the only one who thinks Rick should use the catchphrase “Let’s give them a HIT” for this channel 😂
The H.I.T mantra in action here! Love it. This is the stuff we're after!
As a Taylormade fan (currentlyplaying'19 P790's), I must admit that I would seriously consider the Titleist T150 or T200 over the current Taylormade P790.
Ya same here. My whole bag is filled with Taylormade clubs but I just switched my P790 TI irons to a T150 & T200 combo set. The feel and dispersion was unreal at my fitting session!
I have a P790 2iron from 2017 and I absolutely love that thing.
Always enjoy the honesty. no brand loyalty . just good stuff and not great stuff or bad.
I have the P790 irons 5 to PW and was fitted for them late last year. Absolutely love them however, there is a BUT. I came out of some lovely Mizuno irons, again fitted for them back in 2017 so a few years old. I am still trying to find the sweet spot with the P790's ... What I have worked out is, I can't force them, I can't try and give them a little extra like I could the Mizuno. Instead I have learnt they like smooth rhythmic swings, so clubbing up is the order of the day rather than forcing a 7, move up to a 6 and trust it.
During the fitting I tried the current models from Ping & Titleist... of the three it was the T200's that I least favoured. No matter what shaft I put with them, they just didn't feel right.
The Taylor Made irons felt good with most shafts, very similar to my previous Mizuno. So in the end it was a matter of getting the right shaft with the club head.
Lovely irons but a change of attitude from me was also needed to get the best out of them.
Loving the Rickism - when you put something on such a high "PedeSTOOL" 😂😂
My T200 arrive today !!! So pumped. these P790 look phenomenal as well. More choices for more fun golf
I play the T200 and happy with them. I use the T300 for the 3, 4 iron. I use ping driver. Looking for a Threewood now again looking at ping, but the Adam’s looked good too. I played Adam’s about 30 years ago and loved them.
I never knew I was interested in golf reviews until Rick's H.I.T reviews.
I love your reviews. You ever had a bad hitting day while reviewing clubs? This review felt like you weren't having your best striking day . Especially with the 5 lol
“different day obviously im not a robot, wish i was” hahahahaha
Respect for the honesty! Thank you so much.
Wow glad Rick could review them on a day he couldn’t find the middle 😂. All jokes aside, love you Rick
Let’s get some new MizunoPro reviews! Very interested to get your input on these. I’m looking at the 223’s to go in my bag.
Nice video, love too see a honest review and comparing them to the t200
I am a new golfer with a full set (3i to PW) of cheap irons with very strong loft and fat heavy heads. I would really love to try something like the P790s and those Titleist T200s, just to see how I hit a proper club.
My driver and 3 Wood are reputable brands but I don't feel like I am getting much value from them, because I am not quite consistent yet. But the Irons are quite easy to hit, and I am getting confident with the Irons.
Please continue to keep the head to head comparisons as you review more products.
I got 2019 P790 PW-3I prefer the polished look. One area of my bag I am completely satisfied with.
Loving these iron reviews lately, amazing work Rick. Glad to see the new indoor sim getting its paces in!
Great review of these. I picked up a mint 2021 set this past week on your advice. I break them in tomorrow. Thank you for your input Rick. Love the new channel!!
Have you ever looked into reviewing Tour Edge brand clubs? They are a budget friendly brand made in the USA with a lifetime warranty. They have some players on the Challengers tour using them.
I would like to see and hear what you think about the P770's as well for 2023 and if they happen to be the more forgiving irons in the line up this year
This makes me happy I got the 2019 versions. Absolutely love those irons. No reason to upgrade.
At this point, I see a switch to Titleist. You hit those better by far. Keep up the great work.
Appreciate it
Love you man but this is exactly why you need a robot arm. This will help test consistency. Of course we want you to hit them as well, but 10 with a robot will help us judge the clubs as well.
Great honest video!! This is What I love about HIT this is the stuff that really helps us to make good choices
Thanks Rick for a great review. You’ve helped my decision in which irons to buy. Thanks 👍🏻
Hit all the new clubs including the new Titleist,ping, and Mizuno irons plus others. Never was a TaylorMade guy but my fitter friend forced me to try them and i have to say they are by far the best irons ive ever hit. Long story short they are now in my bag😂😂😂 hated TaylorMade because my arch nemesis through college played them so they automatically were the enemy. Now i have 770/790 blended set in my bag. Wow im team TaylorMade now. Never in a million years thought i would be.
Loving the honesty of the reviews. Thank you!
Hi Rick and team, could you do a review on the Srixon ZX series lineup, very interested to get your thoughts on these slightly under the radar irons as compared the the titleist and taylormades. Love your show guys! Keep it up!!
the last srixon irons he tested were the 545/745/945
@cwugrad396 yeah, I meant the newer ones like ZX4, 5 and 7s Mark2
Would love to see a 3 way comparison with these 2 sets and the Mizuno 245's when they are released
I love them, i just got a combo set, went and got fitted for them. I got 4-6 p790 and also got the 6-pw in p770, i hope they come in mail soon, i weakend my lofts on the 790s. I will probably complete the 790 set eventually after i play with them a little.
What have you found the wear and tear to be like? I’ve only played twice with mine and the scratches on the back of the clubs are terrible
Mizuno 923 Forged for me, exceptional feel and forgiveness, great top line aswell.
This is exactly what I commented on the previous video that Rick needed to test against the latest P790.
Looking forward to if Rick does a Srixon ZX4,5&7 mkii irons review
I play P790s since 2021. They are NOT forgiving. But, when you do hit the center, they are brilliant. They have made my game better forcing me to focus on good contact-- because the distance range between on/off-center strikes can be large. I love them (tested Titleist, Ping, Mizuno before choosing them-- and it wasn't close).
Funny, I've written very similar above ... I can't force the P790, but they reward smooth swings.
Interesting how the 790s seem to be less forgiving than the 200s. With the number of mishits you had, could it be that the irons require a slightly different swing because of the construction and different centers of gravity? I'm just curious.
I have the Ping i500s and am absolutely in love with them. For those looking for new irons, though, the 200s seem to be the better choice. Of course, one should get fitted if they are seriously looking for irons, but based on your reviews, I'd buy the 200s off the shelf.
Cheers!
I think we can all agree that Rick will give a 100% honest review regardless what the company wishes he would say.
Just superb. You have such influence Rick.
I love my 2021 model P790s. I didn't get fitted for them though so I'm going to be getting fitted for the 2023 model and selling my 2021's (best to sell before they get too marred up from regular use). Hopefully graphite shafts work well for me, I'd love to give them a shot.
Both the Titleist and the Taylormade irons are very pleasing on the eye. I tried both of the older models and loved them but still walked away with Mizuno 921 forged.
I have those - nothing beats feel of a mizuno - I won’t be changing for a while
Need a T200 vs Apex Pro vs P790 video
With this just being studio-based, it would be cool to see more interesting scene transitions now and again - like a pop of Rick appearing and then the background slotting into place behind him
Do you think you were possibly locked in on the titleist and had an off day with the Taylor mades?? I would like to see you try again. The p790 looked really bad all in all? Just curious!!
Anyway love your honesty Rick!!! I absolutely value your reviews so strongly and appreciate your takes!!! Thanks mate
Love the impartiality you've maintained
Love these reviews in the "Hit Studio". Thanks Rick and the team
I love the honesty of these reviews mate !!!
So glad I got my 2021 model p790's as I swear they're better than the new model I tested too!
2021 P-770s, before they turned them into P-790-esque, were the superior irons of the two in my opinion
I admit that the t200 this year are incredible, a bit disapointed about the p790… but their still amazing. Rick we’re still waiting for the giveaway !!😂 Wish you love Rick your videos are the BEST🫶
Disappointed how
@@edanzore like the dispersion difference with the t200 and rick said the feel is less good than the previous one but I still think their really good clubs
They are ugly imo. Top line is to square and not a fan of the speed slot.
My best days playing golf are well behind me so I have quit playing the game where I search for the perfect set of irons,the best wedges, the putter that is best suited to my stroke etc. and am more than content to just play clubs that are from a reputable brand that I can afford to buy. Some of these brands would have you believe that they have answer to whatever ails your golf game whereas I consider it much smarter and beneficial to my game to go to my local teaching pro that I believe will be able to communicate his knowledge of the golf swing to me in a manner that is reasonably simple to understand. I’m 67 years of age and there isn’t a golf club made that is going to make a significant difference in how I score in the game of golf.
