Hi I’m Rick Shiels, welcome to my channel! This TH-cam channel is designed to help you play better golf, also to help you enjoy your golf more!
I specialise in golf equipment reviews, golf instruction & I play against some of the best golfers in the world!
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! - กีฬา
The halftime stats were a nice touch to this video. Definitely do this going forward 👌🏻
Time stamp?

Agreed. Would enjoy seeing those after each video as well.
100%
Everybody has opinions. So here’s mine. Idc what you shoot or how you’re playing. I just love watching you do what you do and play some golf. Bad golf. Good golf. Great golf. I’m here for it and so are the haters. Keep up the work man we love ya!
I have enjoyed Rick's videos for years, but I have to question his course management here. First, if I was coming off my worst ever warm-up session I would not announce that I was going to play driver all day. First hole (330 yards), make sure you just set up a wedge shot by using whatever is a 230 yard club in your bag. That way you build your confidence and don't walk off with an immediate double bogey. Seventh hole his drive rolls into the water when 3-wood would have been sufficient. Last hole he wants to "annihilate" the ball with his driver. Why? He does best when he smooths his swing and still gets plenty of distance. He had some bad luck with the putter, but the real problem was not hitting the scoring areas off the tee.
Finally, a criticism that isn't snide, and I can agree with. I think the single biggest problem with Rick is he hits his driver too often.
Totally agree. His strategy is non existent. As always.
@@leonardhandzlik6008( I’m no golf expert ) but his driver always seems to be one of his worst clubs also
I agree with everything you said. I watched him do a 9 hole video playing only irons and he shot 3 under. He doesn’t need driver every time on a par 4 or par 5. He should follow 2 rules, get the ball in play then get it on the green. Birdies will come to you.
Solid comment. Thumbs up.
I'd also take it one step farther and point out to Rick that his full wedge shots in this round were laser focused. On holes where he can...hit an approach shot that puts him at 125 in so that he can put that wedge inside of ten feet.
Me, 30 yards left: Hooked it. Rick, 30 yards left: Pulled it just a touch.
Brilliant, that made me laugh. That's exactly what I have been thinking for ages 😂
I love Rick and his channel but this made me laugh as hell because I felt it the same waz imediately.😀
But he is pulling them? You're hooking them? different shots. I don't get it
A hook and a pull are different shots.. that's why
@@nopressuregolfhe's not pulling them, they have huge curves
Not the start we wanted, but the start we expected 😂. Top stuff Rick
Rick, you are class and im not even trying to tell you what to do but why not go for a more forgiving driver, Peter Finch is using the Pung g430 max 10k. And hes crushing it. Also your iron play is phenomenal, just putter let you down today. But as far as TH-cam golf goes, you're still the man
Caddy was a cool, cool guy. Never strayed from the next shot. Love that.
“Going to hit a soft cut up the right”… snap hooks it 75 yards left. lol love you though Rick. Good video as always.
Rick! Your game falls apart when the regret and fear creeps in. It happens because you are focused on your score, instead of on hitting good shots and enjoying the experience of just being out there.
Fun to watch. always love the videos!
The drone tracer shots are amazing. Nice round Rick, don't be too hard on yourself. You are way better than the majority of golfers out there.
Exactly that, different courses every week as well, I find it hard and play the same one all year round.
And why shouldn't he be..he has played for 25 years and it is basically his job😂
It is hardly a compliment
You're right, Rick is a far better golfer than me........but I'm not making my living on TH-cam playing golf.
Loved the mid round analysis. Would love to see that in other videos. I’m an analyst in golf as well as in my day job so would love to see more of that going forward. Keep it up Rick.
Wow. This video opening is filmed on what must be the highest point of elevation in all of Florida. That looks like a solid 50 feet above sea level! Lived there 7 years and never saw a hill above 20.
Amazing.
You should research florida golf burial mounds. Dont know how much truth is to it but an interesting subject.
Throw that Evnroll/Scotty xerox (what ever it is) in the lake and go back to the Odyssey 2 ball.
leave that driver at the course, they can use it to shoo gators LOL
I know everyone always complains that you're not positive and happy, but the pain/ struggle is why we come back. It's real. Keep playing Rick. And keep improving the quality of your videos as they are becoming works of art visually. And don't hide your pain, it's the most relatable part.
Rick, I love this video. Fantastic golf course and pretty good golf. Amazing attitude from you!
And I loved the pin video on the first hole. Do wish the team used it more as I was constantly looking for where's the hole throughout the video.
Noticed Rick that when you slowed your swing down on 9th…your 2nd and 3rd shots were sublime. Crisp contact and accurate to where you wanted the ball to finish. 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
His biggest problem by far is his hips firing to early trapping him on the inside he then has to stall and flip to try and sync his swing up. When he slows down it allows his hands to go slightly quicker than his hip giving him space to swing and more chance to time the strike. Its his number 1 biggest swing flaw.
@@TheTraditionalGolfer Spot On.
Yup, same problem with his chipping
@@peterodonnell3399 👍yep absolutely is
@@TheTraditionalGolfer Putting has also been a problem for Rick for quite a while. He has good days with it, but most rounds, he loses 4 to 5 shots with his poor putting.
21:36 'I took some off that as well' (blames caddy in his head) 🤣🤣
The caddie was about 15-20 yards off with his advice tbf
@@robertl8665yeah shocking yardage . 180 playing 9 down 171 . Middle of green is probably 160 playing 151 . Plus down wind . Basically 140 -145 shot to pitch middle of green which is all that’s needed when your gunna get a decent hop forward
It was 160 shot
@@andylopez163 to land it pin high maybe with a sky high Bryson gap wedge . Ricks trappy draw with release he should be playing to pitch middle of green . You been playing to much PlayStation
@@SJ-je8gw I think you nailed it. He said specifically if you hit it 165 it's over the back. Rick then picks up his 8 iron and said it's not a full one (for fear of going long). Why he doesn't take the back out of it and send a 9 Iron beats me.
I love watching Rick golf, but mostly I love watching Rick have a good time. Great video Rick!
That was a nice stretch of play in the middle of the round, Rick--take confidence and keep plugging away! You're doing great and it's great to follow along as someone who loves golf but who could only dream of breaking 100 at a place like this!
That course looks amazing!!! Thanks for bringing us along. The swing is in a transition phase. It’ll soon get to where you want it.
Went here on a golf trip this summer before my daughter was born. 3 amazing courses and an elite place for a boys trip. Can’t recommend it enough
Rick's "Not his finest" round is a dream round for me. 😎
Was waiting for the caddy to quote the Scotsman who caddied for Rick once upon a time “Finally, a golf shot!”
I'm sure the caddie is great, but did anyone else get a little disappointed when he said "Ryan" and it wasn't Mr Ruffles?
That’s exactly what I thought!
Same!!😂
Yes, yes I was
That 3 putt from 6 feet was tough man
Brutal wasn’t it. We’ve all been there.
we've all been there lol
Some beautiful photography in this vid. Some of the best i've seen in years on the channel. Makes a real difference
Try out a mallet putter, Rick. It might help your speed control.
Rick switching away from that Evnroll would save him 3-5 strokes a round.
I recommend a putter fitting with a Sam Putt Lab or similar technology. Rick's 3-putt from 6 feet really rattled him.
He’s a good putter. His expectations are too high. Whines about missing 20 footers. Pros only may about 12-15 percent
Old Bluey might need to be retired.
It had a good run though.
Streamsong is awesome. Stayed there in ‘21 and played all three courses. As you said at the beginning Rick it’s very ‘natural’ and not what you’d think of a typical Florida course. I remember being at the range on the Black course and looking out thinking it looked like an African savannah.
Great effort Rick. Still positive attitude. PLEASE GET RID OF THAT DRIVER.
Yes!! That driver is costing him at least 5 shots a round.
Ricks iron play has significantly improved, he is scrambling from spots off the fairway.
His putter costed him 5 shots and his driver 5 shots ⛳️
It's user error not the club.....
Yeah his game isn’t at the level where an LS driver suits him. Needs a more forgiving one.
Don't know why he still letting pride get in the way of his driver choice. He needs a forgiving driver not a low spin one. But therein lies the issue, he's stubborn about his game.
Rick seems to fixated on speed since he visited Bryson?? Speed is no good if you trade it for accuracy. Don't know why he didn't just upgrade his PING as it was working for him. Bit the bullet Rick, we comment because we care.
Was there in 2016 when it was only 2 courses. Stayed at the club house, woke up looked out the window to see my clubs waiting for me. A must play destination course!
Heading out to the Saturday comp - this was probably not the inspirational round I was hoping to view🤣😂 Love the honesty Rick.
There's something about the way Rick says 'Ahh' on a shot that ends badly, that makes it hard to watch, when someone is just so unhappy with the result or their game. Rooting for you Rick, but hard to watch. I didn't actually count, but it's almost an 'Ahh' per shot, at which point, it can't be a surprise anymore. I don't know what the answer is, and I'm really happy to keep following and supporting, but at some point we have to say that this is the game we have and just keep working.
I’ve commented this same thing many time, the huge sighs , the ‘ahhhs’ etc. makes it hard to watch. He doesn’t seem to be enjoying it, I’m not sure if he expects to be perfect. But I’d say some sports psychology would help no end
May I ask what your handicap is. You need to realise Rick was a very good golfer rick would of been scratch. Knowing you're able to shoot even par and a slight pull every few holes is causing you lost shots is going to be frustrating. Why can't rick do it? the pros do it. I'm a 8 handicapper who just shot 100 yesterday for the first time in about 2 years. It was frustrating as hell. I don't normally get angry I can normally hold it together. I've had rounds where I'm 12 over par with 4 holes to go and I'll pull another shot and it's frustrating. I know that one miss is causing me 6 to 10 shots a round. The 2 days recently where I didn't pull a shot I went -3 for 9 hole match and +1 for a 18 holes match. I know the games there but it's tiny mistakes thats causing issues. This is exactly what rick is going through atm. Give the guy a freaking break.
Agree. He overcompensates by trying to talk a positive game & then when his real game bites him we have to hear all the ahh's & whining. If you constantly have to try to talk yourself into being positive then the underlying reality is you are assuming negative is what you will likely do. Unfortunately there are a lot of other similar channels that are a lot more entertaining.
Agreed. I honestly don't care if he plays well or not, but the self-imposed hang to perfection is not pleasant to watch. I don't like playing with people that complain about all their non-perfect shots either. We can see it's a bad shot, we know you've hit better shots in your life, but non-perfect shots is 90% of the game. Deal with it.
Agreed - found this a tough watch. No slight on Rick, just want him to do well for him. We’ve all had these sort of frustrating rounds
Played the Red and Blue courses in 2015, before Black was finished. Amazing resort courses and the hotel and hospitality is stunning…..great to see you playing it Rick!!
loving the new positive and happier rick ....please keep it up you are traveling around the world ,visiting some of the best course out there play golf for a living you should have one bad moment on the golf course your living the dream enjoy every shot good or bad
It is fake positivity..he even said he was forcing it. The lad is a dummy that cannot even fathom the possibility he makes mistake after mistake..then puts it down to bad luck.
Basically how every amateur explains their round.
@@SteveNinetyskiamen!!
Rick the king of shoulda, woulda, coulda
shoulda, woulda, couldn't :P
King of excuses.
Stop projecting ❄️🤦🏻♂️. Better than all you trolls though 😂🤡🤡❄️
@@user-iv7kx1ub8d no one needs to project they just need to watch the videos. No need to be ignorant bud.
Loved the ufc edit made me laugh 😂, great looking.course ⛳
With all of the resources available, you would think someone would help him fix that hook. "Argh, pulled it!".
I played there last year on the Blue course, and it was one of the funnest courses I’ve played. Was great to re-live the experience through your round Rick. All the best!
I like the Half Way stats after hole 9.
Time stamp?
@@TheRocketrob3 29:00
I love that Ricks music never tells the shot coming up. You can have the most victorious music playing and then it's a horrible shot. You would never know
Lets go Rick! One of my favorite local courses
OMG absolutely amazing course. Love watching yr vids and it helps me with my game too . Thanku Rick
Gotta say Rick, I know you didn't play your best round (we all have bad ones), but your chipping/short play has drastically improved. Showing real improvement. Good work and great content as all ways
LOL. I must have watched a different video. The video I watched had three 3-putts, one of which was from six feet, and a chip or two that left him 40 feet away. But I do enjoy Rick's video's immensely (especially the break 75 series), his content, watching his struggles, and especially enjoy seeing the great golf courses.
Im so glad this course is finally getting recognized, its right in my home town and theres nothing around us so its cool to see someone here
Big fan of the channel, Rick, always been a supporter. I love the content, and while I appreciate seeing courses that I might not get a chance to play myself, playing to a level that doesn’t meet your expectations is never fun. Perhaps shut down the Break 75 series until you can start scoring slightly better and we can watch the old Rick shoot under par? It’s obviously your job to produce TH-cam content but thinking long term, you don’t want to get burned out.
Literally 10 seconds after saying he plays better with a caddy because he listens he ignores the caddy and he takes driver lol
This place is incredible. I am so glad to see you get to play there. I have suggested this course to you in the comments below some of your other Florida videos. Given how windy it was for your round, You played better there than I did.
39:49 caddie ‘PUTTING’ as Rick proceeds to his ball 20 yards off the side of the dancefloor 😂
God, Rick was all around me this year. Between Streamsong and Cabot Citrus farms alone we're talking MAYBE an hour or two? I've got an Arnold Palmer designed course, a Nancy Lopez designed course and a former PGA Champions Tour course in my backyard I play all the time and I was really kinda hoping he'd hit one of them up, but he's playing some really high end stuff in this year's Florida swing so I'm not shocked he didn't trek over my way more. But it would be really nice if he comes in the future to have a Florida meet up of some kind, his content has really served me well over the years, and I've built a nice bag that suits me because his content taught me what kind of equipment to look for. My goal of breaking 90 on the Arnold Palmer Legends course happened last month with an 88. I'd still be shooting 100+ rounds if not for what I've learned on this channel.
I'd challenge you to break 80 at the course I just joined in Perthshire, it's moniker is Crazy Hill, its actual name is Craigie Hill, and I can assure you, it lives up to its nickname! It's completely bonkers, and I love it! Probably one of the most underrated courses in Scotland! Do it, Rick! You'll love it!
How can this guy say he is a pro !! Even the caddie had a look on his face , that said “” what is this guy doing “ !!!
Great looking course it’s starting to knit together Rick , great caddie too
Rick you just seem to be enjoying golf more and it shows in the videos! Can't wait till next time
Love it he’s using his wedges more around the green,keep going Rick , break 70 isn’t far away I’m sure
I'd agree for the front 9 !
It's easy to say that sitting behind your keyboard @@davidpotts4860
Break 70 really?
He hasn't been under par in I don't know how long
This is so cool, I read the caption thinking wow a hidden course in America this should be cool, not knowing it’s the course 30 minutes down the road from me that I want to play more than anything. Been searching for a good video of the course and nobody better than Rick to make it. Playing there this summer!!
My favorite of all time was when you played with Iona on the coast back across the pond...that was a beautiful film
'My game isn't far away.........seems like the story every week
You put us through it Rick, man the putts that just rolled by, think i might have snapped it over my knee after that short 3 putt 😵💫
Beautiful landscape. Well done on a solid round.
Game is definitely improving. I like the effort to hit 4th gear with driver. Please… I’m begging… put a damn mallet in the bag 😂
Rick always seems to get brilliant caddies 👌 looks like a superb place to visit.
Watching positive Rick is brilliant! Keep it up buddy
I think James Wiltshire Golf was right about Rick’s swing problems.
I really dig these off-the-tee drone shots with the tracer, what a cool vantage point.
All in a days golf, up's n downs, you give us all hope ha ha ! well done !
Watching your channel for 9 years. Enjoyed the course videos all the time and have seen the tons, if not all. Somewhat it has changed, it gets harder and harder to watch it. Now production is great locations are superb. And you are anoyed with each and every shot. Shot being hit, then long elaboration on what was wrong and again. It is hard to digets, but I am trying and hoping for some change. Still like the reviews and tips. Thank you for all the work you have put in your videos, it is the great effort and all the best.
Love youre slower backswing 😊 great video
Me and my golfing buddies have discussed a visit to Streamsong , watching your video has made me wanna go even more , tough day Rick and the course shows it’s teeth if your not on it .
Guess the caddies thoughts???......this guy talks a good game lol love the enthusiasm as always. Its just a game afterall
Stats were very cool. Love that.
Brutal putting round though.
Looking trimmer !
Never got on with Envroll myself, wouldn’t have one if it were free.
I have played streamsong several times. All 3 of the courses. It's one of the most difficult group of courses I have played. Beautiful property!
It was one of those days, Rick. I can't wait to see you put it all together. I think a new putter change would help you. Even if it's just a psychological .
So good to see Rick happy playing golf and not being too hard on himself.
That putter saves him so much. Puts like a pro, rest like an 18
Keep up the hard work on your game Rick!
Don't forget about course strategy!
Why hit driver on 8 and bring water into play? Iron. Wedge. You'll play the hole under par on average.
I feel like Rick would score much better with a more forgiving driver. He goes low spin heads on everything, but sprays them around.
Caddie: Thats a great shot!
Richard: *belly ache that the ball didnt slam dunk for a hole out*
We need a short game series. Not sure what chipping/pitching technique you're using, but you should be I think you really focus on dead hands. Jason day is the master of this, Short Game Chef's main focus is on it. Huge margin for error, bad shots still just work.
Another great video. Thanks Rick!
Good strike on a ten yard chip shot. Thumbs up!!
Death, taxes and Ricky making double on the first of a break 75. Never change Rick Lad!
Heading there in September, can’t wait!
So glad you enjoyed this course and my home state of Florida @RickShielsGolf
Fun video Rick! Game is looking good just some putting bad luck
With all the endless help Rick gets he’s not improving 😂❤
Love Streamsong. A real challenge and unique for Florida.
I really like the stats appearing in bold on the screen. Its a nice touch that looks good
Hope your new putter will be better, love watching your videos. Thanks
Hey Shiels team. Just hit the end of the front 9 and gotta say I'm a fan of the stats. Especially if you're gonna compare after the back 9. Keep up the good work lads and happy Easter.
i've been noticing your approach is very muc changed, more positive... great to see and hear all "what i can do" !!
I'm on the first hole, and I had to look it it was breaking 85. At the signature hole now and what a beauty of a hole. Rick you got to stop with all the complaints after every shot. You stand there after a bad shot like you've never hit a bad one. Then you talk about for 30 more seconds. Your killing your game with mental bashing yourself all the time. Hit the ball and go. You can't change a bad shot by talking about it and thinking about it all the way to the next shot brother. Now on the ninth hole and your talking about working hard on your game. You need to work on your mental game and you even touched on it while taking about working on your game on the 9th tee box.
Love how you keep it real.
Was there this weekend! Absolutely incredible place.
Would love to see you, Fryer, Pete and Carter play the 3 courses together 👌🏻 would definitely be epic!
Okay.... I'm only 4 holes in and already wishing Rick was holding the camera, and the caddie was playing👍😆
Swings looking good, love seeing you chip more, putts will get closer but chips are more likely to drop
Liked this vid. Yes the bants is missing, but sound, scene's, background noise, WAY better
Putting a blues soundtrack on a break 75 video actually really hits the spot 😂 I kind of love it
Very enjoyable and well played 👏👏 for a 6 Hcp Rick - I play off 6 and would be happy with 81 on that course TBH
