This new club is a real game changer.
Safe statement. Doesn’t say what direction your performance will go. Only that it will change.
I'm still convinced Rick's videos are the reason I cannot find the Costco Callaway tour edge set. They sold out within a week when that video first dropped. Now the price has gone up from $500 to $900. You're too popular in my area, Rick!
I was able to get the first Edge off Costco, but not in US of A
Fuck.. yeah I remember in that video him asking about how they could justify selling the same quality clubs for so cheap and I guess they just made the smart business decision. Instead of dropping the price of everything else they just doubled down and said the clubs are worth that much
no it is 100% the reason a week after his video came out i was looking to get some and they was sold out and have been ever snice
My Edge driver just broke and they are sending me a 2021 Great Big Bertha for free. Callaway is a fantastic company. Probably just made me a Callaway customer for life for the the price of a driver.
I bought my set used of the Callaway pre owned for $450 they were a display demo set that works just fine. I upgraded the sand wedge and the drive but 3w - pw is still really great and the putter is money if you practice enough with it.
Ask Mark Crossfield! He got burned by Taylormade because they were butt hurt about one of his reviews. They even axed him from an R series driver release because of his honesty. I personally like impartial and brutally honest reviews. I love people letting me know that the quality is good or that they are making outrageous marketing claims.
the problem is these companies are trying to release new products consistently every year, so they can get more consistent & predictable revenue streams, rather than trying to release a product when there's actually a substantial improvement in the tech
that guy from the hammer X driver (his "answer" to your review) was just pure gold. Never seen that many dislikes on a video. Please give us more honest reviews and more butthurt manufacturers. If you don't bring out good products that meet the companies claims, they deserve to get roasted.
I liked how he claimed he was a better golfer than Rick and could give him some tips for more distance. That guy really believes his own hype. He goes on and on about drivers having zero technology. Like golf companies don't spend millions of dollars and years developing a new driver. Nope, they have no idea what they're doing and are trying to scam golfers. Jack isn't even a golf professional, just a long drive champion. He hits the ball really far with his driver but if he were truly a great golfer, he would have been on tour. A one trick pony.
I love that this happens across all reviews!
This is 100% Taylormade not being happy with the comparison video recently to Kirkland wedges
Arsene Wenger Quote: “Everyone thinks they have the prettiest wife at home.”
Replace with Golf brands and their clubs.
your reviews are always fair and mostly objective. things like sound, feel, and appearance are personal, and subject to your opinion.
Did you mean to point the arrow in thumbnail at Mizuno? 😆
Called clickbait
No haha
Haha
The middle of the face is maxxed out and has been for years. They figured out how to max out heel and toe strikes years ago. The figured out how to sort out spin on high and low strikes years ago. They got them low spin for people of Ricks calibre in regard to club head speed mph which doesn't really help Joe Average and his 95mph.
The only trend that is worrying me is that driver shafts are getting longer. The last thing Joe Average needs is more shaft as he is struggling to square the face of 45 inches.
The only game changer they can make from here is worse for Joe Average.
I had a friend of mine who HATED Ping irons. He was a blade golfer and only played Mizuno's or Hogan Irons. I had Ping Eye 2's that he thought were rakes and shovels. lol I grew up with blades, but once I got used to Eye 2's, I was hooked to casted cavity backed irons. It comes down to opinion. Of course Rick tests everything which means he's in a good position to say what clubs are awesome and which clubs should be used as garden tools. Bottom line - each golfer needs to try things out for himself. Because YOU are the one who is going to play with them.
My favorite is the hammer X response video. The level of butthurt that man had towards Rick 😂
Just watched the response video. The level of butthurt is unreal 😂
I was going to mention that one, seriously one the best things ever. One of my favorite parts is when he talks about how a fitting is $800, like what???
@@ShawnyBGolf haha yup. When he goes from “well your a decent golfer with an expensive, fitted driver” to “yeah well you shanked that one like you do with every club so don’t make that my problem” 😂😂
Can you plz link it or the name of the response video thanks
@@lucawinton7663 kind of long but worth a few good laughs.
Hammer X World's Longest Driver Reaction to Rick Shiels Review
m.th-cam.com/video/6TGSGf-WgWg/w-d-xo.html
I think the two big areas you can improve distance is bulking up your strength doing weights and then the adjustments needed to the stands and body shape after you've driven ... both these things Bryson has adopted,,,a faster more powerful club head gained through training creates a bigger arc all round so the body needs to allow the swing to fully go round .
I think an element missing in Rick's reviews is custom club fitting (Shaft etc).
This man isnt shrinking, Rick is growing.
Rick speaks the truth. Unfortunately club makers can't really add a ton of distance anymore so club makers saying your going to gain 5 to 10 yards every year. A 5 year old club is just better than a new shiny one
I see a lot of comparison between new golf equipment and high end bicyles. Latest, greatest, got to have its. Chasing rainbows, fellas. It’s the indian not the arrow. My Callaway Hawkeye three wood is at least fifteen years old. I don’t think I would pick up any distance or accuracy with somethin’ new and shiny.
Sometimes.
if the brands are surprised by consumer / reviews then they are getting caught up in their own hype. Nothing is perfect for all golfers and that's what keeps them in business. Personally i love it when i hear an honest review - any chance of you reviewing Peter Finch's / Matt Fryer's swing? 👍
Can’t wait for the day some company complains to me about one my reviews. Haha
Funny how companies love when it’s positive and share links but cry when it’s negative. Hopefully most just take not and work on their product instead.
Got a few minutes in and Rick hardly gets a word in edgeways.
It's almost "Driver review season" or holiday season for most. Can't wait to see the reviews.
Cant wait for the live podcast. Gutted I couldn't get tickets. Will defo listen to the audio tho.
Wow, first comment. Complaints can be a compliment. A review is just an opinion, especially on “feel”. Too subjective and anyway, humans aren’t robots.
Well these brands should know who to send what product to. You can’t send professional golfers to review a beginner set. And vice versa. It’s more or less being smart on who reviews what. But it also works for them. If you poorly review an entry level iron set the more experienced golfer will spend more on a better set.
So they were talking about the Taylormade Stealth?
Can you talk about Callaways news stuff and how confusing their lineup is? Apex, Epic, GBB, driver/hybrid hybrids, fairway/hybrid hybrids…who can make sense of this stuff?
I suspect this year a manufacturer will put one or more alignment lines on the top of their driver, fairway metals, and hybrids. I have considered putting painters tape on top of my driver for setup. But, I never went through with it for obvious reasons
when a review finds flaws or problems with a product and the manufacturer is surprised by the discovery of the flaw, what does that say about the brand's testing? That's right, it sucks. So what an impartial review is really discovering is the testing the brand puts into its product. Crap design and testing will produce flawed products. Simple as. The brand that is surprised by such revelations is to be avoided.
Should try the small local golf makers to get major supporters back.
Quite the most honest golf review channel on TH-cam...thank you Guy and Rick,you've got the balls to back yourselves. #trustworthy #rare
Basically don’t send a bad product to be reviewed and you won’t get bad feedback.
You said you were involved in the development of the Garmin R10 but have never reviewed it. Is that because you are a Garmin ambassador and the thing is not delivering accurate metrics. Its fine having an opinion on equipment where you have no affiliation!
To illustrate Rick's point, my current bag includes the following: Ben Hogan PTX irons; Cobra f7 fairway wood; and Cobra Speedzone Xytreme Driver. And I do not believe that I will be replacing them anytime soon.
Wow.... Interchangeable body parts... Amazing!
Review the Tittle X simulator
Curious if any brand every asked Rick to collaborate on equipment design… clubs and balls mainly?
Discussing brand reviews how come the brand ambassador for Garmin hasn’t revised the new R10 yet… as long as reviews are honest opinion then no company should really have an issue.. 👍👍
was thinking about the same, its like, the laat comment he said, he gave some updates or inputs on how to improve things, but thats just it. rick said, he hoped garmin addresses it. But he never made any review...strangeeeee
Crickets, right? I've seen the reviews from several of his contemporaries but not from the Garmin Ambassador. I have one, just haven't had the chance to really use it yet. Kind off odd one of the biggest golfers on TH-cam hasn't yet reviewed a huge Garmin release. Pretty sure they did some high production videos for other Garmin products on the channel.
Seemly there is a huge taylormade driver in the works according to local club builder
“…current product is an evolution..” - “…. It’s supposed to be game changing…” Taglines used pretty frequently by the brand in question. Also, this new one is scheduled to be released mid October to the public. Hmmm. Wonder what it could be. I’ll just have to wait for a little birdie to tell me (wink wink nudge nudge)
Hmm Taylor Made Sim 1, Sim 2...
Which golf manufacturer did guy work for?
And here was methinking you were a nice easy going guy, happy ti talk about all things Golf, and yet, here we are with an Internet prog of two guys doing a Mansell!?
Rick should start his own brand.
Good day sir.
I get the feeling its a Taylormade driver
I agree DJ had a prototype in the bag for the FedEx ,not the SIM2.
Say which ones
Why does guy keep saying "we" when its not him 🤣🤣 its all rick 🤣🤣
We are a team mate! You may not see me on camera during the review videos but I’ve been there for the last 4 years!
@@RickShielsGolfShow buzzing can i be an off camera reviewer and club tester aswell for the rick of the shiels 😀
@@RickShielsGolfShow you’re awful and always been awful guy 🤷🏻♂️ there’s a reason a majority of listeners can’t stand you
Why can’t brands make changes to clubs that have been reviewed
do you know how much that would cost them its not like repainting a house if you dont like the color
@@zesolodar not as much as not selling a lot of clubs
I would say the manufacturers are not as bad as certain you tubers with regards to not being able to deal with honest responses. Why do a video and then say ‘let us know what you think in the comments’ and then get all butthurt or be patronising when people have an opinion they you don’t share 🤔🙄
You are entitled to your opinion, however you must realise you are now followed by many, and it is ONLY your opinion.. Each of us needs to try before buy, and operate on the "Caveat emptor" approach.
a loit of reviewers are like this is the best product ive ever tested bla bla bla .. like the new Paradym its the best thing since sliced bread but is it ? its annoying
Rick is always looking for a 'forgiving iron', which is a bit Catholic really. Rick should stick with the Ben Hogan Ft Worth 15's or some kind on MB and forget the forgiveness. Seve would..
It’s telling Rick hasn’t reviewed the Garmin R10.
Are you sponsored by anyone? Do you give those sponsors bad reviews?
I love that the reviews are honest and impartial, but to be fair to the brands, you aren’t saying their baby is ugly privately, it’s publicly which they see along with everyone else
Rick Shiels is a stand up guy he dropped his Nike sponsorship because they wanted him to put his content behind what was basically a paywall and he declined. Congrats
Not even true... it was not a "paywall" deal at all. They wanted to actually try and sell people on the products that he was being sent and post more and more on social media to try and push more Nike products onto the viewers. He is not a sales guy and did not want to start down that path with his content. He stated exactly what happened.. no need to make up shit for likes.
@@stuartstogdill2406 wasn't trying to get likes I'm not that shallow and don't judge people I don't know like you do. I was just misinformed and it doesn't matter what the cause was in the end it was still an unscrupulous deal and the end result is the same
No reply I just love shutting people down
Can you review my baby? Yes. It's breathtaking
Hahaha
Except you are not asking people to spend hard earned cash on your baby... :D
Guy is awful. Always been awful. Always be awful. And this same show would be far better without him
😆 I could say the same about cringe rap videos of yours mate hahahah (Guy)
@@RickShielsGolfShow I know plenty of people including myself who unsubscribed from the podcast because of YOU. You’re lucky Pete is nice cause most men woulda beat tf out of your ass for that smug ass attitude.
Come on Rick, a 4min podcast ? It was getting really interesting, then it ends. What's with that ??
It’s a clip. Full episode is here th-cam.com/video/A2tb2JXZnGA/w-d-xo.html
The guy on the left talk too much RS is talking and he keeps on interacting him!
Cannot stand this guy that does the podcast with Rick. Bring someone else in. Costing you followers
Love your course and equipment vlogs Rick but I can't watch these podcasts - Guy talks to much and is impacting your brand. You need to find somebody better
I find it hard to believe you have that much influence as you say. I sometimes watch your reviews, but would never buy a product based on your opinion. I watch golf related content to pass the time. This sounds to me like you are blowing smoke up you own back passage
Ehhh 2 million subscribers and billions of views. I’m sure he has more influence than you or any of your friends
Sounds lke you are a real clown. Rick is solid. And real.
@@TripsView Kate price has a lot of followers too. I’m entitled to my opinion.
@@alanburch8499 yeah, well it’s wrong
There will always be some bias when reviewing clubs. They don’t hate Rick as they wouldn’t be sending him clubs for reviews.
All the brands know they are not re-inventing the wheel, only they are changing ways to sell you the club.
His reviews are vague and for views he would always want to lean on a club being amazing or very bad, if he put out reviews saying stuff is average and just as good as everything else people will stop watching in the numbers they do.
You are the same as the big brands Rick. I've watched your channel from the beginning & obviously love your content but many years ago I dared criticise you and your 3 buddies for having a drunken night golf match in the middle east like middle class hooray henry's. You blocked me, since then I have had to change names half a dozen times just to keep commenting. It's not just you, recently your mate Matt Fryer, stole an idea I'd sent him, then after many tries to contact him, he said he hadn't got the emails !!!!!, liar, cheat, boring dude with a face for radio. Can't wait to see you all at the live podcast, hope there is a live microphone going round the audience, it should be fun. It's 15.47, no doubt this comment will be gone by 16.00.
Ted.... get a life.
you need to get out more...
@@Jonesie170 I am an ex pro footballer, married to a television comedienne for 27 years & up until covid, played on an over 50 tour in Spain from my villa. Hope your life shapes up as well !! These guys draw in people like you who I'm sure is a snobby player who buys all of these bulled up, over priced clubs they test. How can you tell when the clubs are good when Shieldsy is a snap hooker, occasional iron player and the worst chipper on youtube. They are really just professional beggars asking for subscribers, thumbs up and monthly amounts on patreon. They have no integrity, he even admitted to being a bully at school, a piss head at 16 and was pleased because he didn't have to tell his 'mates' how to behave at JCB, and you tell me to 'get a life'.
Mr. Shiels (sorry just my Texas up bringing) I have watched hours of your content and love 99.8% of what you put out. I understand the content of this short clip of your pod cast when it comes to truly conducting a review on name brand products. Hell I have agreed with a lot of what you have said and purchased equipment based on your reviews. But I must say, this is the first time that I have watched your podcast/video and felt yucky about how you presented the content. It was a little over the top arrogant. Don't get me wrong, I love most of what you put out, and I love the honest commentary of the reviews of the equipment, no matter the brand. By come on, tone it back a little bit with the attitude. The four and half minute clip did not present the best of you and could be looked at as (in amercia) don't give a Sh!+ attitude, when a lot of us pay attention to those videos. I get the company's are taking a gamble with the reviews you give, just don't be smug about it on your podcast.
Thanks,
D. Morrow Texas USA.
It’s because guy is a bum. He really brings out the worst in Rick
