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.

put them in the bag! some of the most consistent irons ive seen you hit!
Maybe they were right about the MBs then.
Leave the brand loyalty behind Rick. You dont need the clout of the big names. You just something that works. You struck these irons better than anything you have tried. No errant shots, just good performance.
For rick I agree but on a side note I think what he was referring to is are people willing to spending almost 2 grand when the top brands are like 4-600 dollars cheaper.
He was definitely liking them but had a tough time getting over that price. It's not brand loyalty it's the reality of the market.
You are right, but he is right also because 99% of people don't know this company and they will think who the fuck are they to charge this much! Because they don't know who they are
I literally went to PGA Superstore to order T150’s and walked out ordering these.
4 -6 CB and 7 - P MB. I pick them up tomorrow and can’t wait to try them!
It was $1,600 for the full set plus tax.
Bettinardi are the PRIDE AND JOY OF ILLINOIS!!!
Put them in the bag Rick!
I like the fact they are a premium lesser known brand. It makes them more exclusive. I don’t think price comes into it when the product is clearly a cut above. What a beautiful looking set of clubs.
Be interesting to see a test of Bettenardi or Muira vs Tacoma or Matby irons. High end vs Low end.
Couldn’t agree more. Would love that comparison.
Would love to see someone review the Maltby TS3s. Fully forged and 1/3 the price for 4-gap…..8 irons vs 7
Great idea
He’ll never review a Maltby iron, too much to lose from big golf.
You can deny it all you want, Rick is an industry plant
@@dansgarage4572 Not golf related but that's why I love the ProjectFarm site. Guy buys his own products and reviews them against each other.
Had a putter fitting a few months back and all the data went in favour of the bettinardi innovate 0.9 mallet putter... I have to admit I wanted a Cameron, but they didn't suit me at all, so got the Bettinardi and its improved my scoring so much...I really like the fact that they aren't in everyone's bag and not everyone uses them.
TAKOMO IRONS!!!! Best of the best and much much cheaper!!! Now thats a WIN WIN!!!!!
I use a Bettinardi putter. Destroys any Scottie I’ve ever seen. They have some special sauce at this company and you’re missing out if you just want the same stuff everyone else has.
I equate Bettinardi with really high quality putters, so I could easily see them putting that premium quality into their irons. Would love to play those beautiful things.
I think I disagree on the brand moving forward, I’m new to golf and a high handicapper, however I found a Bettinardi putter for sale at a Tip shop of all places for £2 and loved it so much I ended up buying a full set of used Bettinardi wedges. The craftsmanship and attention to detail gives me confidence that this brand know what they are doing!
I’ve watched this video and the Kirkland review today. 1300 ish more for these than the Kirklands just seems crazy
Well kirkland is basically a no name brand that copied another company and the other company is targeting rich people
TaylorMade filed a lawsuit against Kirkland for patent infringement alleging Kirklands irons were based on proprietary technology. The reality is the golf industry is rife with clones and knockoffs and there are no lawsuits against the myriad of golf clubs built in Asia. A lot of reviews have said the Kirkland irons perform as well as the TaylorMade irons while TaylorMade has said that the Kirkland irons are not as good as TaylorMade irons. There is a lot of speculation that TaylorMade is suing Kirkland because the Kirkland irons are half the price with comparable performance which calls into question why Kirkland vs all the knockoffs and clones on the market. Their biggest fear is a large company like CostCo/Kirkland has deep pockets and is putting out an affordable product which calls into question why are TaylorMade irons so expensive.
@@FlyRiverFly Taylormade irons are so expensive because they need to pay huge endorsements! Paying Tiger is Millions in cost. Then you have to consider Rory, Dustin, Jason, Sergio, etc. This is why Nike pulled out of golf club manufacturing. After paying endorsements, they weren't making anything. No point in running a business if you aren't making any cheddar!
@@PRYVTgomerPYLE I agree but they are paying millionaires, millions of dollars so they can sell over priced items to everyone else. CostCo/Kirkland is charging people a fair price for a quality product. I dont blame TaylorMade or Ping or Mizuno et al for charging those prices because they do have a lot of overhead in their business which is tied to golf. But I do have a problem with them going after companies because they are offering a product with an affordable quality product.
Please please please compare these to Takomo, budget vs premium! You neeeeeed to review Takomo either way!
Plenty of Takomo reviews online
@@Ghost-Of-Kyiv- I’ve seen them, you can find reviews on every club brand, I’ve followed Rick for a while now and it’s nice to see his take, I own a set of the 101’s and they are great. Good line up for a small brand, do you think Rick would agree?
@@kyleclacherty8933 I've heard nothing but good things
Have you never seen Takomo irons reviewed?
James Robinson is doing a whole series using them
Wesley Bryan plays them in his videos
Claire Hogel games them in her videos as does Sabrina Andolpho
......
@@chrissellings James is a nice chap but all his reviews are the similar, everything’s great! although it’s nice to see him using Takomo. 👌🏼
I have a Bettinardi Putter and it is the best I've ever gamed. It was just a matter of time before they dominated the iron market.
I'm so glad you're reviewing/testing out Bettinardi clubs. Their headquarters is about 7 minutes from my parent's house in a small town just southwest of Chicago. My brother has their putter and it's amazing.
Nice! I'm 15 minutes from them.
Lovely looking irons. I play the Bettinardi Queen Bee putter, its a thing of beauty , so well made, very premium looking and feels a delight when making putts. I can only imagine these irons are made to the same high standards, feel great and so carry the price tag thats offers some exclusivity. There will be plenty of people willing to give them a go .... I will once im in the market for some new irons.
I saw a Bettinardi BB 51 a few years ago and had to buy one,ma great looking putter from the guy who invented making great putters without having mass production. At the same time I purchased a set of Muira CB 501 irons. Yes expensive but fantastic looking irons and still gaming them. I sold the Bettinardi putter last year for more than I paid for it. I think if you buy something that’s top quality and great looking you might not ever change so a great investment.
One thing that annoys me with today’s mass produced top brand clubs is the way they con the buyer. My 7 iron is the normal Muira loft of 34 degrees whereas some brands use 27 degree, 28, 29 etc and say they go further. That’s a lie as you have been sold a 5 iron or 6 iron not a 7 iron. Great show 👏🏻
Totally agree. Also though, I like traditional lofts more now that I’ve made the transition. Gives me an opportunity to build the top of my bag out more with a hybrid and/or 5w
Please review the new callaway edge set from Costco, I enjoyed your 2023 version
I love my bettinardi putter. I’ll definitely have to grab a set of irons now 😁
Absolute banger!
The price is a bit strong. Think they will appeal to Bettinardi fans but if I was inclined to drop £1800 I’d save up for another 2 weeks and buy Miura.
Yeah seriously. At that point I’d just shell out the extra $600 or so and nab a set of the limited edition Mizunos.
I’d buy blueprints lol stuff anything else that price
Saving $300 a week ? 15 grand a year ?
@@kelvinfannon8416some people aren’t poor
The first time I saw a new set of irons with an 1800 dollar price tag was around 2009, maybe '10,, the sweet looking Callaway Prototype tour authentic blades, a first for Callaway. I figured they were exclusive limited edition tour specials or something. Back then that was off the charts.
I say play these, Rick,, out on the course with real turf interaction, wind, weird lies. If they perform better those Wilson cb's then you've found your new set. Good review.
I would love to see you review takomo irons
Look exactly like the new Vice golf irons
Same test, same shaft…it would be great to see a comparison and see the data
Oh man I’d love to try those
Rick, would be great to see you test these and the Kirklands out on the golf course! :)
Rick. I want you and to do me and all the other srixon guys a favor and test the ZX7s. I think you’d put them straight into the bag like we all did. Grab the ZX5s to test while you’re at it!!!
I wouldn’t suggest it if I didn’t think you’d love them. Cheers!
Wow these are gorgeous!
As you said price for an iron I've not heard of .The way to sell is loss leading,reduce until price dramatically until enough irons are out playing with golfers to get them seen and heard. Then when reputation grows with word of mouth and result then price could be lifted steadily. They look Beautiful 👍
Bettinardi makes high quality stuff, I saved up for a putter from them, probably the best putter I have ever used let alone held in my hand. top notch. if you hit these this well on course, you should put these in the bag for sure.
Ha ha the MBs will suit Rick more. Mizuno and others did have the wingback design in the past. Vice MBs look very similar.
"wingback design in the pasy"????????????????
@@3nCountingpast
They look good ❤
Nice vid, wish I could try these! Brand familiarity may be a "big problem" for Bettinardi's sales outlook, but I don't think it should be called out so prominently in a review, because you should be reviewing the clubs from the POV of the golfer who might be considering giving them a try, not the corporate sales outlook. From the golfers' standpoint, price certainly matters, so that's definitely important. But in your final wrap-up, "these are incredible irons" shouldn't sound so much like an afterthought after hammering on Bettinardi's lack of market saturation. It's an undeserved disservice to the manufacturer.
those are some nice looking irons
I love Bettinardi Putters and I would for sure play their Irons - if I could afford them and if the blades would be available in LH.. ;-)
I am a betty fan and have waited for the CB and MB reveiws. Rick saying that they are great irons helps me make my mind to buy the CB's this fall. There is plenty of brand loyalty from Bettinardi owners to make these succeed.
and just put them in your bag already!
The moment I saw these, months ago, and fell in love with them.
Putters and wedges are awesome buttery feel
Would love to see you test their wedges!!!!!
The standard deviation in spin for these irons is nuts. Would love to see an on course review and maybe you putting these in the bag!!
I couldn't be happier with my current irons (srixon mkii zx7) but Holy cow those irons are the nicest looking in ever seen (personal preference I know,)
You hit every shot well. Would love to see you play a round with these. Brand doesn’t put me off at all - their putters are class and these irons look to be the same. I’d save a little extra to play irons that beautiful that perform and enjoy the attention they get.
Need to get the Vice Golf irons on the go
Would deffo get these if they worked for me. Problem is more like where can you get fit for these.
Genuinely everything Bettinardi touches is top notch in quality, and I don't think anyone familiar with the brand and men behind the brand would be the the least bit surprised these irons are fantastic. I am quite confident that the quality of these irons is up there with Ping, Titleist, Callaway, TM, and Mizuno, and would be shocked if they don't perform on their level as well. I switched over from one of their putters to a ping one just because of the shape, but absolutely loved and can remember distinctly the feel of the old one and do miss it.
I agree on the pricing though. If I had the budget to add in a new set of irons, I'd absolutely give these a go. But spending $1800 on a set of irons with a newborn when I could get a high quality used set for $500 or so just can't be justified. And that makes me very sad. They're gorgeous clubs and clearly perform as well as they look.
They remind me of the video you did with the PLD Anser putter, describing it as a piece of jewelry. Those are absolutely beautiful in my eye. Unfortunately, as a 16 hc, those are definitely not for me. I’ll stick with my ugly G430 irons that still go the same distance regardless of how thin or toe side I hit them 😭
Looks more like Srixon zx7 mkii irons with that back
Please review the RAM golf clubs, either the fx-77 or the newer FXTs.
Look a lot like the Cobra 3D printed irons?
I like the Kirkland signature. Would love a set of those
Now you need to try the new Vice clubs. Both companies are making a strong initial showing!
Great! How about a review of the new Mizuno 241, 243, and 245 iron range? :)
Those irons look solid!! My driver broke today and I can see you have one standing in the background who wants to go out on the grass. ;)
They look, FANTASTIC!!!
Great looking iron. I wish they were more reasonably priced. I would love to put them in the bag!
Rick, you gotta wear your watch the other way around. The apple pay keeps getting activated pressing the side botton.
Loved this Rick! But not sure you are correct about the job that Bettinardi have, establishing themself as an Iron manufacturer.
Remember, they are already seen as pretty high-end/high-quality within putters. Think it is easier for then then say wilson, takomo etc. Still, can´t see them competing sale-wise to Taylormade, Titleist and Callaway, but maybe challenge the Mizuno, Srixon etc. Great review anyways. Would like yo see you stick them in the bag! ;)
Would love to see your thoughts on the Srixon irons.
Hey Rick. Loving the hit videos. Would be so interesting to see you review the sub70 irons! That’s what I thought these were when I clicked the video.
Sub70 clubs are awesome!
@@mistahshorthitter their raw finishes look insane
I think they are beautiful. And if they perform Rick as you say, then there will be a market, and I 100% wish them well. I love what they are doing on the brand front, quirky yet very sleek and desirable. If anything, this brand is just another good example that the sport is alive and doing very well. End of the day, "it's only expensive if you can't afford it". I am going to work a little bit harder, 'cos i would love a set of these, even if it's just to spoil myself with something pretty.
Rick you need to get your hands on the new Vice Golf Irons, their balls are an awesome value, it’d be interesting to see if their clubs are as well!
Love these irons, they definitely deserve a round atleast, you was striking them so well. And if all else fails, I'd happily take them off your hands and do some plugging for the brand at the local 👀😂
don't know when those was released but they are 1 to 1 srixon z forged 2
Rick surely you have to put these in the bag!!! I’ve never seen you hit all 3 irons so well!!!
He's a golf snob.
Payed
I like the brand, I change my gear very infrequently. Something like these are timeless, TM and others change their gear often so you're soon out of date. I've a used set of Miura TC201's (which replaced a Mizuno set I'd had for 12 years) and they're still the current model, which I like and it helps with resale also.
I think they are more well known for their putters aren't they? seems quite a few iron sets are up to the £1700-£1800 range now. They do look very nice.
Takomo had the best strategy. Come in at a price that is impossible to ignore. Get some traction in the market and build your reputation up. There just won’t be enough people willing to spend nearly 2k on a set of irons that will be difficult to even test
Bettinardi is a popular brand in America, they make amazing putters like their Queen Bee series. I’m going to buy a set of these irons just to have I might not even play them I just like the look of them they remind me of the Miura 201s
Make sure you replace your divot's.
Nice
Can you test the takomo irons
Rick please review a set of maltby irons. I am considering them and would love to see you out them to the test.
Put them in the bag Rick and do a few rounds to see how you do? Then do another review on them of how they work out on the course? They look stunning
Have you reviewed any Maltby clubs? Their irons and wedges have been getting rave reviews recently across youtube, particularly their player irons... and their price for a set starts at like $500....
They unbelievably look like the new Vice Iron sets! Its uncanny😮
You should try those next!
I see vice came out with clubs now, those should be next on your radar! Also, there's a way to fix the brand issue. More influencers like yourself can get out there and highly recommend the brand, regardless of their popularity. I for one dont care about brands, as long as they perform. We need more people talking about these other brands that dont get that much attention due to sponsorship deals. Because thats all it really is, sponsorships of pros. Help those brands out!
The price may be high but then their putters are pricy too. They are a premium brand and clearly want to be seen that way. If Scotty made irons they'd be expensive too. Hopefully what you get at this price point is exclusivity and very high quality craftsmanship. People, who can afford it, will pay extra for that. That's always been the way in all things.
Rick can you please review rams fx77, great irons at a great price.
Lazy review so this should help those that are interested.... TRI-MATERIAL CONSTRUCTION
The integration of high-density Tungsten and Military- Grade CMC (Ceramic Matrix Composite) within the forged Carbon Steel body produces weight profiles that maximize forgiveness while maintaining balance and consistency from one iron to the next.
Please review the AVODA irons!!!
Look similar to the new Vice VGI01 Irons
Looks identical to the vice iron?
please review the takomo irons!
Please review the Decathlon range of clubs,they look OK for the money I'd like to see what you make of them
Are you going to try the new Vice golf irons, wedges and putters?
Need to review the Vice golf clubs! Come on haha
Still 200 quid cheaper than the Ping putter fitting 😂 Ping needs to take a look in the mirror for charging people that much for a fitting and a single club. Maybe if they fit Scheffler and Korda they could try and steal money from people 😂 Another great video Rick!
I’d like to see you test Takomo irons.
If these don’t go in your bag at least for a few rounds, idk what’s going on lol. Awesome review
Check out Vice's new clubs when you have an opportunity! They look sharp!
Can you please test out Takomo you are preach price and they are supposed to be the best value irons out there
Can you test the Vice Irons?
I was going to say they look like my Srixon Z785s shape wise
What's the thoughts on the Vice irons?
Vice have now released iron sets, if the club works and they are ok in price, go for it
Are those the vice irons, or at least made in the same factory.
Maybe what they need to for a few years is position price just under the big brands? Take £300 off them until established. Clearly as good so if cheaper they may break in...
Can you test these versus the Takomo 301's and see if theses Bettinardi's are 3 times better given the ridiculous price? Most manufacturers are just taking the piss at this stage
Rick, just curious what you do with all these clubs you test? Do you send them back or have the ultimate golf club collection?
Hi Ric are you going to review any accessories equipment on this channel? I'm considering a golf watch to help me be honest about how well i am doing on the course and stop kidding myself. Also maybe an electric trolley, I have a push motacaddy cube which is excellent but considering an electric one.
Rick, you have to try the Mizuno Pro 245's !
I'll be honest, I know Bettinardi for their putters which we've seen Rick test. If the price point was $400 cheaper, sales would be expedentially better. That said Rick is correct about them not be as popular coupled with the fact they don't have players signed. Rick should test them against an alternate brand as well as put them in the bag. If for nothing else, to field test on-course.
