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.
You should have a 20 handicapper hitting with you to get a real feel for the slightly mis-hit shots - I've hit so many irons recently trying to find my fit and these T350's are now on the list to try
- thank you so much for your content
Like he used to do with Rob Potter back in the day. Those were some of my favorite videos to watch actually 😅
I agree@@Violencegod61
Give Rick another 12 months and he will hit 20.
Should take them to the range and let average golfers give them a try, see how much difference it makes
Great review by the way 😊
That's a great idea. I had some thoughts like that, making videos of my buddies using my blades vs their current clubs since they range from absolute beginner to high and mid and lower handicap golfers. I would love to pick up some select irons form current market sets like these ones Rick is featuring, to have my buddies and myself test vs the blades as well.
Awesome Idea, I went to a fitting and tried 5 different brands.. some were better than others for my style and swing. I wonder how these would fare..
@topiaryterror2773 what did you end up going with?
@@topiaryterror2773you would bomb the ball with the t350. It’s so easy to hit.
This is the sort of thinking the channel needs, good to see a variety of players using the same irons. Could even make it a competition for subscribers to visit HIT studio to hit clubs
I am a 2 handicap and I game the T-300's they are amazing irons and really help with my 57 year old swing speed. I love the distance and height I get out of them. Great review as always, keep up the awesome work.
You should put a set of these in your bag, Rick
Real
No way ..Pros don’t play with forgiving clubs…no way….no how !!!
I mean... Rick is like a 6 handicap now irrespective of his "PGA teaching pro" status. He would probably benefit significantly from putting this in the bag. @@TWTexasA1
He should do a “break 75” episode using them.
Nah, he's a draw-player and these offset were negatively impacting. The T-200 were perfect for him I think
Solid review Rick, But if you really want to test toe strikes, bad club path, duck hooks, heal strikes and thinned shots I'm available Wednesdays after 4.
You hit the nail on the head Rick. Titleist finally came around and started building a range of clubs for all levels of golfers. I play them now and I never could. Why? becasue they started making clubs I could hit and trust. Well done sir, great review
I just got fit for these, tried against the hot metal and I knew from the first few shots with them that they were the ones. So good looking and forgiving.
Joe! I was just looking at the JPX 923 Hot Metals, can you tell me what the differentiator was for you?
@@adrian_orozco I game the JPX 921 Hot Metals, I hit these (350's) in my clubs studio last week and I won't be changing, IMO the Mizuno's look far better, feel wise so hard to tell, wallet wise stick with the Mizuno's
@@adrian_orozco I guess the looks is more of a preference thing, but I do prefer the looks. I just personally hit them a lot better, tighter dispersion with better distance on off center hits.
That is the classiest, best looking game improvement club I have ever seen. Well done Titleist.
Thanks Rick - would also be useful to have the faces dotted up so we can see impact location, plus a bit more on the data points rather than just carry, total and spin.
I would have to say the new Titleist lineup is probably the best looking from the game improvements down to the blades it’s really just a nice lineup. I think those T200s and T150s are gonna sell like crazy
They do have a very classic look. Of course I'm subjective, but I got Ping G430 six months ago and I also love the look of them as well. FORE!
Great looking clubs all round. I think they will sell loads of each
Good stuff Rick. I own the 2019 version of the T300 irons from Titleist. While I'm not going to run out and get fitted for these new irons I'm happy to see that this line is improving with the T350s.
Great video as always Rick! I'm sure they're probably fantastic & they look great...but they're also $1400 for a 5-PW set. I wouldn't even try these because of that price point when there's so many other offerings like the Tour Edge E/C723s, PXG 0211s, Takomo 101/101t, and other direct to consumer brands. That goes the same for the game improvement irons from brands like Taylor Made & Callaway. The vast majority of players that these irons are geared towards are not serious enough about the game to pay that kind of cash for irons. I'll keep plugging along with my Tour Edge C522s that I paid $1000 less for (and got an extra club) until I'm a good enough ball-striker to fork out some more serious cash for "player's" iron set.
I just saw a video of someone from another TH-cam channel who struggles with wedges. They saw a big improvement using the new Callaway CB wedges, figured that would be something up your alley.
Have a set on order, thought for sure I’d be a PING 430 guy but T350 just launched higher and I pulled them way less (my miss is a straight pull).
I had similar results and ordered them this past weekend. Also have Ping G irons.
Loving all of these titlelist review videos! These are what I was looking at for my next purchase an these videos have been a huge help!
A good thing that I have seen other channels do is so slow your swing speed down to that of a high handicapper for example. Your swing speed will make the 5 iron easy to hit. Will it be easy to hit for a 23 handicap?
I put the 2021 t300s in my bag last month - feel like butter off the face - great distance - only have 3 rounds under my belt with them so far - but I’d LOVE to know what the comparison is between the 2023 and 2021 versions…..If you’ve got any input Rick that would be awesome!
I'm on board for the 350s! I was waiting for this review.
I’d like to give them a swing for sure.
i swing t300’s and i may switch to these or even the t100 or 150’s
As much as I enjoy the new H.I.T channel, I miss Rick testing the clubs out on the course. I really hope this concept does not bring an end to that. I would prefer if Rick first give the clubs a test in the studio, and then finish with some playing out on the course. That would be best of all worlds.
Hey, maybe Rick should go play a practice 9 holes with each club he reviews in the bag and have a montage of that before he gives his final thoughts. Gives him a chance to review 2 clubs or sets per round
I agree... But he's only one man and that's only so many hours in the day.
I enjoy the course videos as well. But he doesn’t have to pay a crew of people to come film with all the built in cameras in studio, or pay green fees
Agreed
@@Djjr62777when do you think the last time Rick paid green fees? They pay him to play their courses
I had recently switched my Cobra T-rails for the T300s. It has been the best thing for my game to date. And now here you go making me want to try out the 350s. My wife is going to be very mad at you Rick.......lol.
Do you think the 350 is worth the upgrade over t300?
@BuffaloBarber24 I can't see where getting the T350s are going to be worth getting since I just did get my T300s this past spring. But I do plan on going back to my golf store and trying them. Just because how much better I was able to hit the 300s compared to my Cobras. Maybe they have made a stronger iron again. Then I will have a really hard decision to make.
Awesome review as always Rick. You and Thomas from swing labs are the only people on TH-cam that I trust to make complete unbiased reviews. Keep up the great work. If you could do some reviews on some Tour edge clubs that would be awesome. They have some really great affordable game improvement irons in the hot launch series.
Just ordered 6-GW in the t350. Added a Tsr1 26 degree hybrid for the top end of the bag. My fitter says this will be my4/5 iron substitute
Hi Curtis my T300s stop at 7Iron (130yds) Stealth 6Rescue 28deg (140yds) TSR1 26deg set+1 (150yds) TSR1 23deg set+1 (160yds) info may help, Dickey 9hcp 76year senior golfer, (cut yesterday to 8.1), how are the T350s going (love my 43 & 48 Wedges) best set Wedges ever had
Rick: Great Review if the Titleist series of irons.
Could you do a series of Break 75’s using a different set of the Titleist series in each round to see which performs & scores best for you under on course game conditions?
I think the audience would love it!
Absolute movie theater production quality for free on TH-cam, you're the man Rick
I bought the T300 after a couple of months started playing golf and knowing I will be playing for the rest of my life. I haven't tried many irons to compare, but I once I started using them I improved massively and I started enjoying the game a lot. Obviously if a big investment, but I didn't regret it for a minute
Do you still feel the same? Or wish you got the T200?
@@lmhvfd let me put it this way. The clubs are in higher level as a product than me as a golfer... I don't need to change them, I need to practice way more 😀
Love this channel, man. Thanks so much for putting it together. Would you consider doing a comparison of game improvement irons for mid-high hcs? For example, the JPX 923 HM/HMPs - T350s - etc?
Yes please! I second that whole heartedly. I play a blend of JPX 923 HM and HMP (can't make up my mind on the 8 iron - longer clubs HM and 9 & PW HMP - also love the JPX 923 GW, SW & LW). But you and I both know by now that if we like the JPX 923 HM / HMP we aren't real golfers. Real golfers will be deciding between the equivalent latest Srixon model and the new Titleist series. For guys like us that got caught up in the marketing hype of the Mizunos (even though I love them - guessing maybe you do too) we have to ask (hope) to please include the 923s. Just trying to be light-hearted, but it does almost seem that way sometimes. : -)
I'm a Mizuno fan, I've avoided Titleist clubs because they have been often too difficult to hit. But these new Titleist clubs are looking clean and classy, like Mizuno irons. Very interesting, I'm a 10.6 hcp but I think I need more forgiveness, I have to check these out. Love your reviews still waiting for you to review the latest RAM irons and Macgregor irons out.
The Hot Metal HL is worth checking out if you haven’t already. Looks great, not too big, not too offset and the weaker lofts really give that extra height a lot of us need. I agree about these Titleist clubs though. If I wasn’t so happy with my Mizuno’s I’d give these a long look.
This is why Titleist is the best brand by a landslide, thanks for the awesome reviews Rick, looks like my sister and I are getting some new irons very soon.
Awesome video Rick. I can’t wait to see some more reviews particularly longer clubs like the Driver, 3 wood and even hybrids.
For these game improvements irons, might help to use some sort of spray on the clubface so we can see the strike vs the outcome? Hope this helps
He is using a GCQuad that provides that info. He just needs to show it.
After watching this series, I can't wait to try the T200 irons. Thank you Rick for a great review once again
Last years T200’s are like cheating. If you have played blades and hit the T200’s you hit shots that you expect harsh feeling and loss of distance that come off like the best shot of your life lol.
@@jeffbehringer1262 I actually do play blades. I’m playing the Haywood MB irons. Google them. Direct to consumer Canadian company
Can you get one of your boys to hit the 200’s and the 350’s in comparison to whatever they are hitting at present.
Eg. Get a mid handicapper to hit them vs what’s currently in the bag
Bought the T300s at the beginning of this season and love them, so of course they release these now!
Do you think the 350 is worth the upgrade over t300?
@@BuffaloBarber24 Nah. IMO if you're using the T300 the next move should be the T200. Unless you want to just stick with game improvement irons. I doubt it's much of an upgrade from T300 - T350
Great reviews! If you could include the details of the product being reviewed in the video title + description it would be great, especially as you have hundreds of reviews in a year :)
Great review and channels, been a fan for years!
Taking these to the range to let the average golfer try them is an idea i would love to see come through, i'd love to try these!!
Can we get a high handicapper in to do the same tests with blades to Game Improvement (GI) iron as I really do not think players like Rick or Mark Crossfield can truly simulate the high handicap inconsistency - I would find it very useful to see what happens with Blades and prove that the GI really help! I also think Pro's version of 'Toe strikes' is only a few mm's from centre when we actually hit them 25mm away from centre :P
I play Mizuno 921 HM's and the toe strikes are sooo forgiving
Hi Aaron great point about off centre hits, I have T300 set wedges 43 & 48 They are great with off centre strikes & there proper Wedges (not offset chunky things) Dickey 9hcp 76year senior golfer
impressed with the performance of these irons. got me interested in a new set even though i just bought me some older irons
I know you guys have discussed this on the podcast, but it just blows my mind that so many of the products by all manufacturers are the high end products that require perfect swing to hit well.
The vast majority of us are somewhere between weekend hackers and somewhat serious amateurs. Arguably, very few of us can hit blades or the tour-pro level stuff. I'm glad some manufacturers are starting to realize, or perhaps the stuff is out there, just not hyped up?
Just a small tibbit i work alongside a titleist rep, hollowhead construction dosnt start until 7 iron in both t200 and 350.
I got the T300s last year and absolutely love them. Maybe I should have waited 🤔
Same. Do you think the 350 is worth the upgrade over t300?
In the same boat Todd, if you check out Swing Lab data it looks like T300s are better, Dickey
Just ordered my set 5-iron - 48 degree. Can't wait for them to show up!
i love your review videos! ive been trying to replace my irons because theyre close to 15 years old, just havent been able to find anything i like
The t300 is great on thin shots as well, that's why I love them so much, I hit quite a few of those.
Do you think the 350 is worth the upgrade over t300?
@@BuffaloBarber24 I wish I knew. Haven't hit the 350 yet and can't seem to find a proper comparison. Only comparison I read somewhere was that the spin and height was down. For me, that would mean I'm sticking to the 300's.
Just a thought - at the start of these club reviews you might want a stock recorded piece just explaining what a ‘game improvement’ iron is, and who it’s targeted at.
Same with ‘player distance irons’ or any of the other terminology that seems to have come about that sound like everyone should be wanting to play with them.
Love the new setup. It would be really cool to see a slowmo of your swing and the clubface at contact like some of the sims do. Would really help visualize how off the toe/face you really are
Those the best looking game improvement irons by far, probably ever. All of them are huge and, when I used them, felt like I was gonna chunk the club into the ground on every shot. I'd consider playing these even now that I've gotten better. Love the videos on the new channel!
I got a softly used set of ap-1 for Christmas and my golf game has improved dramatically. I have a few clubs I need to replace the 6,4,3 and I may just replace them with these clubs instead. Love titleist irons .
Love the honest approach. Would like to see 18 holes on the same course with each of the models
For these reviews ... really feel like you need to find a player suited to the club type. Would be really cool if you found some subscribers to invite along to help with the video.
I would love to see a side by side comparison of the 350s and 100s and have you show us why the 350s are not "workable" by pros (the supposed reason they don't use them) and what advantage that workability of the 100s imparts. It seems to me that if it is a pro swinging, then the same path and face angle would produce the same spin and similar ball flight (I know CG will impact it some).
Good question, I've always wondered that. I suppose the T100s are thinner and therefore easier to work, but I'm sure a pro could easily work any club.
because of the forgiveness the club will 'correct' pro's intended swing to be straight. pros need to get the ball flight curved as well as their intention. because there are wind, humidity, trees, poles, etc
Hit all the clubs straight and there is no need to work balls. I only shape the driver for dogleg holes.
Hey y’all and Rick I’ve recently picked up a set of callaway big Bertha irons my current irons were the LYNX tungsten weight irons they were good but now I’m convinced to go with callaway irons
Great video again. Got fitted for new Titleist irons yesterday and did just what you mentioned in the video. Ordered a combo set consisting of T200 from GW to 7i and T350 in 6i and 5i. Quite expensive, but cant wait to get them and bring them out on the course!
How much did they cost mate?
@@chassis1651 More than i want to think about. Probably about $1300. Retail is 200/club according to Titleist, but got a bit of discount.
Did you tweak the loft in the T350 at all?
@@TreyZerSxS nope kept them all standard apart from length and lie angle. Currently gaming my old irons, a set of Mizuno JPX 919 Hot Metal 5-PW, as the golfing season is basically over where I live. I have one course with winter greens, but as all the tees are now with mats, I hate scratching those shiny Titleist irons off a rough and sandy mat, so they're out of the bag until spring time. I hit them slightly longer than the Titleist irons, but with less accuracy and feel. Can't wait for spring to come :)
Finally, a manufacturer is offering irons with more distance, spin control, and less dispersion and more forgiveness on off center hits. It might be a first.
Would love to see you okay a round with these irons. No secret that you are struggling a bit with your game. Maybe these will bring some confidence back into your game. A cool video to see. Is blades more a vanity choice when you are not striping it every single time?
Love all the reviews so far, looking forward to the driver reviews. Hope you test all the version like you've done here so the higher handicap player can get a sense of what might be good for them. I'm a Cobra guy so looking forward to that. Another item that I need some help with is a rangefinder. I've had 2 Bushnell's with slope functions that didn't keep working. Seems to be a common problem for Bushnell and I'm wondering which brand has a slope function that will keep working beyond the warranty time frame.
You should bring Rob( the mid handicapper) back to test the 350!!!
Love y’all insightfulness together!!!!
This channel is terrific how ever, what about on course play, because as you know they can play different than in studio. Even still this is some real class testing. Thanks Rick
Would love to see a review on more direct to consumer clubs like Takomo or Haywood in the studio! Loving the content Rick!
Had the pleasure of hitting these today. 100s are scary but look and feel amazing. 150s very similar to the first series 200s but the 200s and the 350 just easy to hit and the 350 goes a country mile. Would very much consider 200s as the yardage is the same but prob have 350s 4&5. Torn between the 150s & 200s though. But if better scores are the name of the game then choosing the easier club to hit will be the go.
You should review the Srixon series of irons. They look incredible for how forgiving they are
I have to wait until my fitters will have the T150 or 200 availible, then I will get myself a fitting for them. I love the looks of the irons!
It would also be AWESOME to have a slow mo capture of the ball striking, so we can see exactly where you’re catching the ball on the face.
Rick, any chance you would review the Takomo irons? Cost about half the price of Mizuno irons and I have only heard good reviews about them.
Love the new review channel
Just and idea here but I think it would be awesome if you had a slow motion camera set up so you can elaborate more on your tips for hitting the ball. It would just give more insight on club path and where your striking the ball on the club face. But I enjoy these videos a lot and look forward to seeing them each week!
Good to see Titleist make some great looking irons for those of us who love their brand but also need a bit of help!
Love the new channel!! Great Review and more in depth. Just one question do you feel that you are missing anything by not hitting em on the course? Keep up the great work and hey from the Mile High City, Denver, CO USA
Can't wait to get my hands on the 200's. Love the reviews and the new studio is amazing!!!
Im 56.. Next spring I’m going to buy my last iron set… I’ll have em till I’m dead.. and the T200 will be pw-6i. 4-5 will be 350. The saving plan is already in effect
This is on my short ( very short list ) to get fitted next January. Callaway Big Bertha B21 or Titleist T-350 irons 5,6,7, and maybe a T-200 for 8,9,PW, Gap W. about the same specs. Will have to look at the data from testing.
Rick, been watching your game lately on break 75 and 65 and you should really think about putting these clubs in your bag. The pro blade clubs are not treating you well.
Video feedback for the tech team: The white balance seems a tad too green and cool. A bit of magenta and up the kelvin please :) Keep up the great work team!!!!
Love to hear your opinion on the Srixon mk2 irons and compare against the Titleist range of clubs.
Replaced my T200 with T350 can confirm much easier to hit much more forgiving. Also went to a lighter shaft aero tech steel fiber. Love the clubs thanks for the review.
Glad you did this review as well. After the T200 review I may give them a shot in tandem with my P790s when I go to get fitted for the 2023's (I currently have 2021 P790's but was not fitted for them). Seems the T200 would be best suited for my game. I don't really like game improvement irons to begin with though.
I am a high handicap senior. I am hitting Callaway Rogue ST Irons. I wonder how they compare with the T350
Hi John had Rogue Irons Changed to T300 2years ago think there better all round flight, feel, distance, and the Wedges are the Best set Wedges I’ve ever had, Dickey 9hcp Senior golfer
Kirkland iron set will be $499 on November 1. Interested to see how they compare.
You should take these clubs for a break 75 Rick. Hall of fame
You should apply that spray on the club and show where you’ve hit it, and what the result is. Would be interested to see that as well in your reviews.
Good info for us non-professional golfers. Thanks Rick.
As a bad golfer, I love that these give you both maximum forgiveness and a good looking club
Recently purchased Aerojet irons which I've found to be very forgiving. Be good to get your thoughst
How do the Titleist t350 irons compare to the Callaway paradym x irons? Has anyone tried them both? What do you think? I am considering both but cant decide which to pick.
My only issue would be that being game improvement, it means they are more geared towards high handicappers, and im not sure golfers in that bracket want to spend £1069 on irons alone. That said, they are def the best-looking game improvement irons I've ever seen.
Best looking game improvement irons is like being the nicest bloke in prison
@bigjohny8446 very true 😂, but a lot of new golfers always want the nice-looking clubs.
Yeah pretty much this. Ping G425s are $133 per club and G430s are $157 per club and you are realistically getting the same club. Spending $200/club on game improvement irons makes no sense.
Seamus you could look at the T300 (2021) there 25% cheaper and you’ll get a deal on them, I have a set and love them Dickey 9hcp Senior golfer
Awesome video series with the T-series irons! I would definitely consider putting the T350s in the bag and then possibly swapping in some T200s when my game was better.
Love the new channel Rick. Would love to see you do a review on the new P790s!
Love your videos, looks like titleist has a solid lineup.
Yes they do
Do a review of this on the course. We want the old Rick back, don't sell out more
all the Titleist irons look so good i would love to have any set in my bag
Stick them in the bag for a break 75 and see what you shoot
I got fitted for t150s but I wanted to try the t350 just to see what it was like. This game improvement iron was almost impossible to hit poorly. Probably the easiest iron I’ve ever hit before.
What did you end up buying and what excuse did you use to not buy the 350’s?
Loving these reviews! Might just have to put these in the bag!
Beautiful clubs. Love all the shows. Founding member here. Have a beautiful day.
Thanks! I would like to see a video on the recommended loft, shaft and brand for various swing speeds. I am 61 and have a foot issue that has reduced my swing speed. My nephew is 27 and swings around 100. So what we should look towards would be a great help.
Please do a break 75 using these irons. Would be very interesting to see how you get on
Fantastic review as always. I'm looking at the T150 with the potential of the T200 in the 4, 5 and 6 Iron. Or the same combo in the Srixon ZX5/7.
When are you doing a Srixon review? 🙏
Good choice!
Love these last three HIT videos Rick. Thanks.
I have a tee to green Titleist fitting at the end of the month and am so excited to get these in my hand.
I personally think i'll be T350 in a 4i, T200 5-8i and then the T150 in the 9 and PW
We shall see.
Don't go in with too many expectations. Let them do their job. Would also be niggly to match up all those different lofts across three sets
Great video again Rick crazy going from watching your early review videos at the driving range to probably the best studio setup I have seen 👌👌
Would love to see a Break 75 with some game improvement clubs, be interesting to see how you get on vs blades.
It's great to see Titleist catering to all levels of golfers now. It was always a brand I wanted but knew I couldn't. Thanks Rick and Titleist
You should spray marker the face to show location of ball, how bad they are with figures. Should be able to express how critical it is with different types of irons.
REQUEST: Tour Edge exotics c723, though I have the c722, would love to see how your edge is comparing to the pricier brands. Love the looks feel and the feel of mine
