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. - กีฬา
Hi 👋 also check out my new podcast: th-cam.com/video/t90az2NkmE4/w-d-xo.html
Don’t worry Ricky, I’m already in the clubhouse…
I took a break from listening to todays podcast to watch this video 😂😂 love all the content Rick 💪
Just starting golfing you have been a good help sir
Did you get to test the Scotty Cameron champion choice release Rick?
They can stay good irons for £939 5-PW. Golfing equipment is getting ridiculous
Only forgiveness I care about is how much I'll get from my wife when she finds out I'm buying these 😬
Bahahahaha 🤣🤣, was thinking the same thing
😂😂😂😂same i just got the Srixon Z785 a year ago lol and were trying to buy another house but priorities you know
they’ll understand 😂
It's easier to ask for forgiveness than it is permission
Do you think when she sees a bag or some shoes she wants that she considers you at all?
Hahaha
Purchased the originals upon release and still love them to this day. Aesthetically, they still rock with only the P770s and these new P790s beating them.
I always enjoy Rick's honest approach to every comparison video... Also the way he manages to insert a multitude on "other" corporate names...TaylorMade clubs in a Ping bag, Nike shoes, likely hitting Titleist balls and all while wearing red G-string underwear...Well done!!!
You are so fun to watch! So consistent and smooth. I love watching you golf. I’ve taken a lot of what you say to my course in Idaho!
I bought these at the beginning of the summer. First time I had dropped serious $ on clubs and frankly, 110% worth it. I grew up playing cheap clubs that you’d buy in a full set, and spent my early 20s playing my great-grandfathers blade-like irons circa the late 90s. Hitting these things was like driving a rolls-Royce after only driving a beater car all my life. Amazing clubs, super forgiving, great soft feel, and I gained almost 20 yards on my 5 iron. Love these things!
That's the way I started. Some old school blades. Then I picked up a friend's sim 2 irons and they felt so much better to hit. Still rocking the blades for now but I want to get a new set.
I feel like I’ve lost distance with them switching from cobra forged tec irons. I’m a little worried rn
@@thegeniusman8757I'm the same.. I had a set of ping g400 and these are definitely better looking but definitely shorter
@@masonparis8423Those Cobras are HOT 🔥 I'm not surprised that you'd hit these a bit shorter
Rick I like how thorough you are in your testing of equipment. Really enjoy watching all of your videos. I'm about 15 handicapper and I have to admit I am playing better after watching your videos. Maybe one day I will be lucky enough to win a set of decent irons on your giveaways. Keep up the good work and I will continue to watch all of your videos!
I absolutely love Rick.. He is a great TH-cam golfer!! I think everyone can identify with his honesty in showing all his shots!! Please come to Canada mate!!!
Thanks for all the help with your videos Rick I’ve been golfing for a year and a half and made my second EAGLE in 3 weeks!!!
Love this rick this really makes lock down so much better
Mizuno MP-18 Blades for me, split set 4+5 irons in an MP-18 CB and 6-PW in Blades. Love the look, soft of the face and shapeable.
How about a video playing with a set of game improvement irons like Cobra T Rail at the same time as a set of Players irons? Maybe play the same hole with each set?
Just purchased p770s this year and absolutely love them. The only reason I didn’t go for the p790s was basically looks although they may have suited my ability level better. If these were available in April, I probably would have gone for them as slightly more forgiveness than the p770s. That said.. I love the look of my p770s and performance has been great and very workable for my 18 handicap abilities 😁
Thanks for the video Rick, top quality as always 👍🏻
Just hit my P790 irons for the first time on the course . These are hands down the sickest irons ever . Amazing feel, forgiving and good distance . Highly highly recommended. Rick is right best all around iron ever !
Hey Rick, are you going to review the Takomo Golf 101 irons? I've seen James Robinson and a few others review them and they all love them. I'd love to see your thoughts on them.
Just got fitted and these were the ones I went with, looks amazing at address and the ball flight I have with these is so pure. It’s also forgiving without looking forgiving which is great
I absolutely love my 2019 P790's. By far my favorite irons I've ever played. Looks are important to me and I get that with these clubs without massively sacrificing on forgiveness which I need as an 8 handicap. I also love that I can really step on them if needed. I've always preferred to take a full swing if possible and these irons allow me to do that more often by clubbing down and stepping on one. Sound and feel are great too.
What wedges do you carry after the pw?
These look amazing. I hope they feel as amazing as they look. Thanks for the review.
I still have the original P790's and play 2-3 times per week with them. I ABSOLUTELY love them! I dont swing hard at anything (unless I have to) and they perform wonderfully !!
Appreciate the honest work Rick. Breakfast hole for the warmup!
Great video Rick. I still play with an original set of the 2017 version of the P790’s, which I bought brand new. I had the lofts weakened by 2 degrees on every club when I was fitted. Taylormade seem to be tinkering with the looks to make them look different and give them shelf appeal. I won’t be replacing my 2017 P790 irons with the 2021 version, as you can’t improve a masterpiece, which the original 2017 irons are.
I have the 2017 version and I love them. Im an 8.8 HDCP. full disclosure, I spent a lot of money on lessons. I was easily a 20 when i really started golfing but have improved my game greatly, and these clubs really help! The inspire confidence when standing over the ball, and deliver the performance. I wish my set had a gap wedge, but will likely buy a separate 50 or 52 to cover the gap left by the strong lofted PW. I would by these clubs again in a heart beat.
Could a beginner hit these in your opinion?
@@frankstallone3887100%
I bought my P790 two years ago because of you Rick. Best buy ever. I broke 80 for the first time because of you. Thanks
I just got fitted and wound up with a set of these irons (5-Pw). I tried roughly 5 different manufacturers, 3 different shafts, and these just blew me away. When I hit the center of the face it was so smooth! I can't wait for them to arrive so I can go out and play a round!
Love the channel Rick! Will you be reviewing the new Titleist T100-300s any time soon? Would love to hear you opinion of these irons.
Preordered mine on Sunday! Thanks for the video Rick!
I think the looks are certainly an improvement over previous generations, a big upgrade. I'd love to have a set 👀
hey my name is aidan i’m the real aidan not you
Yeah they look super nice think there going to be my next set of irons
I feel like almost all the 2021 irons look really good.
@@aidan2353 aw man, i was so certain i was real 🥲
@@drywater_ me too
Love the look of these and the P770. While I haven't tried these yet I did try the P770 and I actually didn't care for the feel/sound. Hoping these will be better but they do look fantastic.
Best looking version by far. Great video Rick!
I have the 2017's and really love them. A great all around club. Excellent feel and they look nice.
These look great, time to wait until they go down to the $200s second hand in 15 years 😂
I see by your profile pic that you’re a man of taste 👌
The 2007 burner driver is back up to $100 on eBay so hold your horses on that 15 years.
A dozen pro v1s will be $200 in 2036
Just got a set of ping g15 irons for $200 they are from 2009 and amazing
@@jakemetz8605 i got a ping g400 driver for 175 👌
I was planning on getting fit for these cause they are so nice but my pockets suggested I go second hand. Got a steal on R11s and am very happy. Still have these in the dream bucket!
I've had a more than a few struggles over the last 5 or so years with my irons. I've visited thinking maybe switch to a newer set, maybe not.... In late June I booked some lessons with our club pro. I'm on lesson 9 this coming Saturday and the idea of changing my irons has completely evaporated. Of course it wasn't the irons - it was the chump hanging onto them. Good review Rick but maybe next year :-)
Man it must be nice to live that type of life country club. I go out for an 18 hoping my clubs don't snap in half.
I'm still using a set of 23 year old Mizuno irons. Still shooting around par. Everytime I watch videos about new irons, I think "Maybe someday", but man, they just work.
@@eric42ca your irons are also probably have worn down grooves so the spin is affected on them
They look really good. I got fitted for the Ping I500 and now I play with ping clubs but I really wanted to play with Taylormade, their sets of clubs looks so good!
Concluded, literally just yesterday, that I was putting the 2019 P790s in the bag. Good morning Rick and the 2021 P790!
Decision time 🤔
I quit. I just got the p790's from Taylor made this month, ordered in April. Now you're telling me 2021 is out. I payed 1500 Hundo for an old set now. Lovely
You should try the black edition Rick. Just bought a set and really pleased. Hit so straight and I’m a high handicap. Played Thursday with a dreadful short game, but still a massive improvement. Could be your tips of course, maybe a combination of both. Absolutely love the P790.
I lucked into a full set of these from a co worker who also happened to be left handed and had just gotten fit for PXG’s. He had been fit for P790’s about 1.5 years earlier. I love them. They are a huge improvement over my old old offset top flites. Even though they weren’t fit for me I feel like I’m actually playing golf now instead of embarrassing myself with every swing. I’ll probably ride them for many more years until I can justify to the wifey I need to get a full bag fitting…. You know eventually….
Just started playing 😂 Trying to decide on a set. So found your channel and enjoying the info 👍🏻
Rick, you’re the best golf club ever made.
These look great and have me seriously considering. I do have a question, what irons would you say are the best overall?
I love the way you mess up and laugh. Oh and that cliff-hanger putt. Brilliant.
Rick, Thank you for this video, I have to agree with you, I am a mid handicapper and decided it was time to replace my old TaylorMade M5s, I tried for a month the PXG third gen P and I could not hit them consistently at all , I was so frustrated that ended up returning them and got back to he drawing board. I narrowed down my short list to the Mizuno Hotmetal, Mizuno pro 225, Mizuno Forged and the P790, after a long and detailed fitting session, the PI790 was the best fit for my type of swing, and ended up buying them, they are forgiving enough for my type of swing and handicap (15) , and I am over the moon how happy I am with these clubs. In term of looks, for my taste, I rated the Mizuno pro 225 first, a second close the P790 and a third the hotmetal/Forged. When I tried the Mizuno and the P790., I felt far more confident with the P790, it is possible because I am coming from the same family, for whatever reason, I was hitting the P790 longer and with less dispersion the Mizuno.....
I’ve been wanting a set of these for years
Just a fantastic review. Love how you placed those irons, in regards to their category. 👍🏻
I love the honesty in these videos so much. What are the chances you review the PXG 0211 blades?
Just got the 2019 P790's and I absolutely love them. The confidence I get while hitting them is insane!
What degree wedges do you carry after the pw?
@@BuffaloBarber24 52, 56, and 60 LAZRUS wedges
@@jonathonroberts6532 do you think they 21 version is worth the upgrade?
I wont upgrade from what I have anytime soon. Without hitting the 21's though I don't think I could answer that very well
I like how he showed the chunk, doesn't pretend he hit it great and cut out the first shot.
Idk how long you've been around, but that I believe is why 99% of people love his content and have stuck around for years with him, he's been so honest and upfront with everything he's done. Including when his partnership with Nike ended, he's just a great honest person, there isn't enough praise you can give him for that.
I have the old P790. Best irons i have ever had. Have now been intrested in new clubs since i bought them.
I bought these irons a few months ago and absolutly love them
Thanks for the review really useful information
Great review! Your iron swing seems different from a year ago and better!
I got fitted for a driver (Epic Max LS) the other day, and the fitter gave me one of these (7 iron) to warm up, and I have to say I was impress by their look, and their feeling of the face. Felt pretty nice and they gave me a "tour" vibe type of irons.
I have the same 2021 P790 with TTDG VSS 105 shafts. Finally applying some technology to the problem. They are longer AND more forgiving than my previous set. Wonderful clubs.
I hit the prior version of the TaylorMade 790s before I bought PXG 0211 irons (original version). The gel or foam in the hollow irons is the same concept. The feel of a club is truly an individual preference.
Hi Rick, I recently went to American golf down at trafford for an iron set fitting and am faced with a big dilemma between the p790s and t300s the numbers came out identical but the spin rate was a tad higher with the p790s. Any help/advise on which ones to go for would be much appreciated 👌
Great review of the new version of these irons. They do look great all around.
Great content and helpful
You have me intrigued on these irons. Being a high handicap player and currently game a set of 714CB titleist this may be a future purchase sometime. Thanks for another great video review Rick
Let me know I'll have your old one's
I have 704s CB and I'm looking for another set to play while I restore mine. Then have the second set restored in brushed carbon black.
I bought a set last year...4-AW. They are incredible irons. The consistency on distance is amazing.
Rick I made a visit to a golf store in our town and went into the simulator and I hit every game improvement iron they had. Callaway Apex, Apex DCB, Mizuno JPX Hot Metal & Hot Metal Pro, Ping G425, Taylormade Sim2, Sim Max, and M6. All of them were 7 irons. My current irons are 2006 Big Bertha. I hit my 7 iron about 135 to 140 yards. I am 64 years young and a 19 handicap. I did not hit the Callaway clubs that well. They were the first ones that I hit and I hadn't warmed up so that could have been the problem. I hit each of these irons about 148 to 153 yards on average. The young man that was helping me why I didn't grab the Taylormade P790. I told him that it looked like something that would be difficult for a higher handicap golfer to hit. He told me I would be surprised. First swing with the P790, 161 yards. Great feel with a slight draw. My normal shot is a slight fade but usually straight. Second swing, 165 yards, high ball flight with a slight draw, same great feel. Third swing absolutely sweet, 169 yards, next one, 172 yards. Never in my life have I hit a 7 iron over 150 yards. Now the bad news, the golf shop can custom fit me but will not be able to make the clubs until next year. No stock. The Taylormade P790 are the best irons that I have ever hit. Great video Rick.
Brilliant video Rick 👏🏻
What I can say though...These are best looking from all previous models haha I love the satin finish on irons its my preferred look , same as the ping g425 irons they look amazing💯
Love the new look, can’t wait to try them
I’ve got a set of these. Got the 2019 version (but bought in 2020). Bought them when I was playing off 26 and now I’m 18. Can safely say have had no problems hitting them!
Came here after hearing you talk about them on the podcast. I’m getting fit for new irons tomorrow and I’m looking at getting these
Great video, awesome camera quality!
I’ve just ordered these after having a club fitting! After trying numerous clubs these just felt so good on impact. Thanks for the video
I just did the same today. That’s why I’m here. They said it’ll be 4-6 weeks 😩😩😩😩
I can't wait to get these! Love the look of them and the fact that they have some forgiveness to them.
Would love to see a comparison between this new model and older in spin and distance lofts
I play the 2019 model of these and love them. The consistency in dispersion is second to none and they still give some forgiveness for me as an 18 handicapper. They look stunning and I prefer them to the look of the new ones. Great review Rick
Agreed. I play the 2019 model as well, much better looking than ‘21
Hi sir would you recommend p790 2021 I'm 18 HC . My self looking for new irons any info welcome
@@davidmullarkey4316 not played the 2021 models but I definitely recommend the 2019 ones
@@scotthill8777 thanks much appreciated
What degree wedges do you guys carry after your set PW?
Rick, could you review the Cleveland CBX2 wedges and compare them to the RTX version? Would love a comparison video from you
I just got the 2019 version and I love all of them except for the 4 iron
4 Iron is out of my bag, using a 3 Hybrid instead
Heyyyoooooooo first comment!!! Love you Rick!! Shot my lowest score yesterday a 76 at eagle crest (eastern Michigan’s college course) appreciate all the videos you make that have HELPED me tremendously. Keep it up, all love here from Michigan. Damn not first comment my phone bamboozled me lol
Hey Rick! I love Watching Your Videos!
I just want to say I watched the video serious u done about slicing off the tee an I changed my grip my path an stance an my game is so much better I was shooting mid 90s an now I am in the low 80s it's crazy how much it has changed my game
Preordered mine yesterday. Can’t wait to get them.
the videography and editing on this video was class
The beat of the music and the cuts exactly on his strikes from 5.46 mins.. fantastic editing as you said..
Like a professional production ( not sure if that's what it's called)
These are genuinely the best looking irons on the market in my opinion. I’ll get them for 300 quid in 7 years
What’s a squid?
@@justapedn1 a quid is a pound, a pound is GBP..
These and the 770s 🤤
Good luck the 2017 for a full 4-pw are still 5-600 that's 4 years see if they half in another 3 you never know
Thanks for the review
Very enjoyable review Rick
Love a new club review 👍 wouldn't mind another video of what packages you haven't opened 👀
Ahh embargo lifting day is like Christmas.. hours of new TH-cam content to keep me occupied
Thanks Rick! I'm a big TM fan and currently play the Rocket Bladez. These have almost the identical lofts to my current clubs and may be something to look into. Do I need them no, but would be nice to have. Thanks again!
Hi Rick, great videos as usual! I feel a bit daft asking but……when addressing the ball with driver am I supposed to ‘allow’ the club to sit on the ground behind the ball, which seems to open the face slightly or should I address the ball with the back of the head slightly raised which seems to close the club face? I’ve not seen this covered in any videos and I’m really not sure!
Those are gorgeous looking irons, look great in those silky mitts Rick!
I love the pP90s. I got P760 4 iron to PW and got a UDI on a whim. It is amazing. So much so I'm thinking of replacing the 4 iron with a P790 3 iron (the 4 iron looks too closed to my eye)
Great review of a beautiful-looking club.
Totally happy I’m picking these up today
I love the look of them! Got fitted for the 2019 model back in May, Taylormade generously upgraded me to the new ones due to delays and I'm so glad they did! Can't wait for them to arrive
Just got my own set! Love them!!
Just bought these, can;'t wait for them to arrive!
Great look, super forgiving and a brilliant match for a mid handicapper. Gets my vote.
I've just ordered 5,6,7 iron in p770 and 8,9,pw p7mc. can't wait for them to come
I went similar except I went MC in 7iron also. You won't be disappointed. Its an epic combo set
I got the original p790s right after they first came out.
I know this is cheesy AF, but I still get as excited to hit them as I did when I got them.
My handicap hovers between 0.5-1.4ish, and these irons do everything I need them to do. I think they are the only clubs in my bag (and quite possibly the only clubs I’ve ever owned) where I’ve never considered switching to something new or different.
Im interested in buying some more forgiving clubs. My handicap hovers from 0-2. I’m currently playing mizuno mb 25. My concern is that I may hit them too long and/or have too big of a gap between my wedges and low irons. Do you have any issues like that?
Just bought a P790 udi 2 driving iron and I love it!
Great evaluation…honestly ..I trust your critiques more than any other due to your unbiased opinion.
I've got them, on the way, I was convinced the moment the struck these clubs that I needed them in the bag..
Did I have the previous 790 gen 2, yes, am I did it matter, no.. so excited, thanks for the content and review.
Love the vids Rick
Hi Rick and Guy,
2 questions.
Firstly, do you think the 4 balls with the 9 iron was enough to give you a full view of whether or not the ball will fly off the face?
Secondly, unrelated to the P790's, will you be doing a review of the Garmin R10 approach?
The clubs have a sweet sound, they look great and I would definitely like to add them to my bag
I love watching you test out irons, but like you said in the beginning, these irons are even for high handicappers. I think you should bring in a few different handicap ranges and have them test it out. You’re a professional and would crush me using just about any club.
