    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.

      Out of all the golf channels, yours is by far the best. I've just started playing again after 20 yrs or so, but this time, my son has got the golf bug and it's relit my fire to play again. I was quite suprised within the fist 10 hits at the range, I managed to drive 231 yrs, after all that time not hitting a ball. You're an inspiration. Best tips, thank you.

      Nice Video! Excuse me for chiming in, I am interested in your opinion. Have you heard the talk about - Yanaylee Yanrooklyn Magic (do a search on google)? It is a good exclusive guide for unlocking an effective golf swing technique minus the headache. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my mate after a lifetime of fighting got amazing results with it.

      This was great, thanks, been searching for "how to hit a driver consistently" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Reyuhaffad Underlying Recognition - (search on google ) ? It is an awesome one off product for discovering how to revealing an effortless golf swing technique without the normal expense. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my neighbour got excellent success with it.

    After watching this video I accidentally broke my neighbor's window! Your video inspired to set up my back yard net today. I hadn't set it it up in at least a year. After setting it up, I took a few practice swings with my 7 iron, and then hit the very first ball, which proceeded to go through the net, and was followed by a huge crash. It broke a big window on my neighbor's house. Apparently the net had dry rotted... but it was a very solid strike.

      @@christybrantley8092 depending on how close you are to a driving range and how many people you have in your area that would be interested, you could make a driving range. take couple hundred dollars and buy a bunch of range balls, then clear out a long section of pasture. you could walk off some yardages and put flags and then set up an area for people to come hit. you’d make your money back fairly quickly and then you’d be reusing all your balls you’ve previously bought mostly, just would have to find the time to pick them up, which would take more money to buy a picker but you’d over time make your money back and then besides if you have to buy more balls hear and there for lost ones, it’s 100% profit

    I am now smashing my irons 15 to 20 yards longer AND straighter each time + hitting my driver much more consistently making me more positive each time I stand behind the ball - if only I had discovered your tips sooner in my golfing adventure.
    Keep up the great work.

    I have a quick question regarding iron stance location. I was always under the impression that as the iron numbers drop, I should shift my stance further behind the ball. Based on this video, should I always have the ball just forward of center no matter the iron?

      Mid irons in the middle high irons closer to the back, low irons more near the front.

    Hey Rick, I feel like one of my biggest problems when driving is allowing my back shoulder to drop too far down causing my club face to open on the down swing. I feel like this may be the result of trying to stay titled in the down swing instead of covering the ball with my chest. Any suggestions??

      @tshum2157 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      (In case RS doesn’t see your comment) I’d check my lead wrist. When that happens to me, it’s because the angle change makes me extend my wrist away from neutral and open the face.

    Saw this video on the way to the golf course today and did what Rick said; wide stance on the driver lean little right and fade back a little on the wind up and stright stance with the irons and downswing.
    Worked a treat. Always was woeful with my clubs but today was a revelation. Thanks RS.

    Rick, sure appreciate your evolution into Golf. Great tips to remind oneself of. Will use it today at the range. If you can do more if not already on hitting the clubs on grass or course vs mats would be great. I feel my practice really suffers having to play on mats and occasionally a little patch of rough at the range. Please keep up the nice work and love the golf game challenges very much. Ty.

    Rick! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! This video completely changed my game!!! I stumbled across this video and watched before my golf league yesterday. Got there an hour early to try things you showed in this video. The 55% weight lean (for me it was more like 60%) on the front foot did it for me with my irons and hybrids. Shot the best game of my life. I went from a 50 to a 41 (9 Holes) and don't think it was a fluke. This is crazy... I can't wait to play again. I feel like I could literally beat anyone. I cannot thank you enough! Keep up the great videos!

    RICK I watched your video last week after I shoot a 52 on 9 holes. The next week I watched your driver vs Iron video. I practiced the instructions while unloading my tanker truck. I didn't even go to the range. I played today I shoot a 43 as opposed to a 52 on the same course. The biggest difference was the tilt and shoulder back on driver. Then the 55% weight forward on irons. Thats a 7 stroke difference! I can't wait to get to the range and actually practice. I had a great time today, and it's because of that video. Thank you Rick
