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.
LIKE this comment and you’ll get a hole in one next time you play! (It’s proven to work) 👀
Rick I need a three wood and I cant find the right one I cant spend more then 120 dollars any recommendations
Like my comment rick and you’ll get a hole in one next time you play! Also proven it’ll work 😉
Well didn’t think that would work but looks like we’re both getting aces! Just need to activate that ace cam once again for us!
🤣🤣💥👊🏼 can’t wait for league Wednesday!
Mason Steiner as rick would use or say look into his ol’ bluey
Its such a shame that almost no one will ever be able to see a set out being played because everyone will leave them at home. I think the best part of having something like that is being able to get it out and let others experience it as well as enjoying them.
Also imagine rocking those on the course every single time.. nobody else will be playing the same ones for sure 😎
“Back in the Box, never to be used again”: saddest words I’ve ever heard! 🤦🏽♂️
TrojanMars1 I imagine offers would be received.
Myles Chilton I wish!
noooo no imagine these things beat up and bruised! they really cant be played with! get a regular set for regular play!
@@marksteiman7585 Nothing is sadder than something made to be used and never even touched.
@@Riley_Mundt worst chat up line I have ever used!
Do you still get to call them "Irons"? should they not be called "Coppers"?
Pull up to a par 3 "think I'm going with my 7 copper here"
hahahhahhahah
David Oakes fairway metals
@@studmuffingoat5305 fairway titanium mostly
all "coppers" do here is fine you for driving too fast !!!
Never played golf, don’t watch it, closest I’ve come is playing it on PlayStation yet I watch every video 😂
Wanna play when corona is done haha
Only if you are at least 45.
That’s Jack! You should try it mate!
If you start, get ready for the greatest love/hate relationship you’ve ever had.. haha
I watched all his videos two and now am playing and thinking about it all the time
The MP-20 irons are some of the most gorgeous irons I've ever seen. I love the look of them.
Just saw a guy selling a set of MP20 on market place for 1300 canadian. In the description he said I am a terrible golfer and bought these on pure sex appeal for 1900+tax a year ago but became more terrible so I had to down grade.
Pretty soon rick will have a bed, stove, and fridge in the golf room 😂
Hahaha
He already has his beer fridge. I'm sure that's all he needs
Champagne for when he hits that hole in one on the Sim!
you mean TOSSED in the golf room with bed, stove, and fridge
What's lurking in that IKEA MALM that's what I wanna know.
Probably some of my favorite irons/wedges are the full Beryllium Copper Ping Eye 2’s 😍
When's is the give away for these irons? 😂😂😊😁
I'm a lefty and I want them.
@@GP-yc2it 2k on golftowns website in stock right now, not saying they aren't nice but for worlds RAREST I was expecting sold out and being re-sold on ebay for atleast 10k kinda thing...
@Chase Jordan LOL so? Someones asking 4500 usd on ebay? whats your point? Why wouldn't you search golftown first to verify what I said? if some dumbass like you wants to pay someone 4500 on ebay, go for it. I double checked, and there still in stock and for sale on golf towns website "LMAO"
Nice clubs. Ping made copper irons back in the day too. I remember having a Ping Eye 2 two iron in copper. One last comment...Rick, copper doesn't rust, it corrodes. Only iron rusts. Rust specifically refers to oxides on iron or iron alloys, such as steel. Oxidation of other metals has other names. There is tarnish on silver and verdigris on copper, for example. Now you can impress that PhD chemist you tee it up with. :^)
Beryllium Copper irons.... the irons you don't kill - they kill you. Well... only if you breath in beryllium dust - which would be difficult to do. But yeah - it is really, really bad for you. I had a beryllium lob wedge and loved it.
Get them in the bag Rick, imagine Pete's face 😂😂
David Swanson Pete most probably has a set of his own, that he hasn’t told Rick about.
Livered, simply livered
Got a set of these, started to play them 3 weeks ago
Beautiful irons
Will see how they tarnish over time
thats for doing what the craftsman intended, i hope they age and look badass.
jtcroofing()co()uk/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/Copper-patina-colour-chart1()jpg they will turn green in about 10 years. they might be doped or perhaps have a clear finish.
I have a set of Mizuno irons....it’s true “nothing feels like a Mizuno”.....period!!!
Yep! I just got a set of Mizunos as well. I absolutely can tell a difference.
@@drummerkelly9174 now i want Mizunos :(
I have 5-6 sets of Mizuno irons, both blades and cavity backs, and another 9 sets from other brands. The Mizuno sets are the best feeling but it's especially so with the blades. There are some other older blades that compare favorably, like Haig Ultras but not quite to the same level. I'll never change back from Mizuno
Mizuno is my first set of steel irons. Really like it. However, got a Ping driver which is amazing. Anyone compared Ping irons to Mizuno irons?
I’ve been with Mizuno since replaceing MacGregor Tourney 1025 VIP CM set with Mizuno MP-60, 3-PW.
Being truly honest, the hashtag tells it all. I’ve went to demos since long and never found any stock clubs, that would have the same buttery feel as Mizunos. Titleists are hard as a rock, Callaway Prototypes were close, but the 1030 carbon steel was really hard, yet pretty nice.
The others match pretty much Mizuno GI-clubs, but the top end in MP-inventory are at their own level with a decent gap in between. And the best part is, Mizuno is not that aggressive in sponsorship, but sell the same issues to customers as for the pros, not making them under the shelf from Miura san.
Mizunos are made of the same 1025 steel as the Tourneys were. Never hit Hogan Apex blades, but I hear they are forged from 1025E and returned in the market with different strategy in selling. They don’t use middle men, but direct sell from the factory. The ICON blades are something, I’d love to try.
I got #80/500 and I finally put them in the bag after 2 weeks of debating whether I should just display them on my living room wall. They are just way too gorgeous. I literally got chills opening that black Mizuno box. And then I got bigger chills after puring my first 9 iron on the course. That click. That feel. Butter. Your reaction after striping that first 8 iron, was my exact expression. Wow. Just wow.
Thank you @Mizunogolf for making these. $2,020? #worthit
Are you still playing with them or are they on display now?
@@b22chris Both. 🤣
I’m surprised they didn’t get “lost” in shipment with the details written in bold print on the label.
Just adding this comment here because it's your latest video. I am an avid disc golfer (though not very good!), and I've been so inspired by your videos that I ordered my first starter clubs, due tomorrow. I love the concept of golf; whether with frisbees or golf balls, this sport--conceptually, technically, spiritually . . . whatever--beckons the best in you to be a little bit better. I love that. I am so excited to start playing traditional golf at 35, and I plan to keep on watching your channel for clear instruction and an overall good time. Thank you!
They are a thing of beauty! I think I could actually get my missus into golf if all clubs were like that!
thats the dream mate, imagine being on the 11th hole and not getting a call midswing from the missus😍
Nuru Karim it’s bitter sweet. She’d moan less that you’re out on the course, but then it’s a good excuse to get away.
@@nuru441 or.....tell the missus you're playing golf and put the phone on silent + leave it in the golf bag. Mine knows that me leaving to play golf = leave a text for when I'm done, or call in an emergency and I'll check my phone every so often.
They can seal them to not rust/oxidize. You can also use a polish to keep them for oxidizing. Those are also gorgeous iron's more companies should make them and take the proper measures to not oxidize. Rick Shiels keep up the great work with your content and Thank you!!!
"That's a very, very nice box" -- been a while since I could say that!
Idk know if you know this but copper doesn't rust like iron or steel. That's why it's used alot in plumbing. it might oxidize though which might be the "rust" you see. I'd put some sort of oil or protective coat on them so they stay in that beautiful state! Otherwise over the years it may corrode and turn bluish green which might look pretty cool as well 🤷🏼♂️
Clearly he hasn't looked at a US penny, they keep a nice shine for years and can easily be polished.
I probably missed it in the video but what have we got to do for the giveaway? 😂
Don't know if anyone has said this yet but one of the bonuses to copper is that it doesn't rust. what it does is oxidises over time which creates the green looking layer which can be confused for rust, this actually protects the metal from further corrosion and should be able to be cleaned off easily enough. So you don't have to worry about them rusting they won't and as long as look after them I doubt the green layer will form very much either.
Imagine Ricks wife walking in the garage and just seeing rick bent over whispering "would you just look at that just gorgeous" hahaha. Id pay for ricks onlyfans
That is a very very nice box
😂😂😂
Rick...I've heard you speak less than favorably about blade irons a number of times. But, every time I've seen you hit one your reaction is always pleased and you hit them on a rope.
I almost didn’t even want him to hit them😂😂
he's such a tease
I just started watching this channel as i made my final decisions on buying my first real set of clubs. You had a bunch of good content on almost everything I was looking to buy and gave a real honest take. Love your content dude, you are a natural born teacher and showman.
Which clubs did you end up getting?
"didnt want to make these" - as soon as they realised they didnt have to finish the club then sell them for 2 grand a set.. they were probably dribbling
Million dollars right there!
Hell they could've sold them for 5 grand if they wanted given the demand that was out there, no one does copper or copper alloy finishes besides specialty refinishing people who can charge a lot per club
Nobody does copper because it looks like shit on a club when it tarnishes
They will look like this for a few days and as soon as the fresh air gets to it, it will start oxidizing
EarthX They make Brasso for that. Play ‘em.
Amazing looking Irons. MIZUNO keeps producing some of the best looking and irons decade after decade combined with feel and workability. Great videos thank you.
I’m sorry, I can’t see buying a set of clubs without playing them at least once.
Copper does tarnish but polishes up beautifully again I'd be more worried about denting them as copper is quite soft.
I’ve been playing Mizuno for so long I can’t even imagine going to another brand of irons.
I love mizuno, and agree with them nothing feels quite like them. These are beautiful looking clubs, they shouldn't rust though as far as the copper, oxidize maybe, but not rust. They are cool collectible.
Rick, you should play them. I imagine the patina oxidation would probably add to the iron spin like the "raw" finish wedges that were designed to rust and boost spin. How do they compare in terms of swing weight? Is the copper thicker to compensate for the lack of steel? I do love how marketing has enabled a company to sell unfinished products for a premium price. 🤣
Christmas comes early for all of us. Rick was a big 6 year old waiting for the brown Santa....lol
“That is a very, very nice box” someone’s been in isolation too long 😂
@Audy Simon Hope you were either joking, or your knowledge of golf is better than your knowledge of science...
it is a nice box tho
new to the game, didnt think i would love it this much. gotta say, your enthusiasm makes me want to go play 18! but for now, ill stick to learning how to even hit a ball at the range (and watching your videos to learn obviously). thank you for all your help you have given me as it is!
Those irons are beautiful wish I had a set but I would have to play them even though there are limited edition
Just purchased 3 (used) *Mizuno* irons/wedges, to round off my set of clubs.. And Im probably just as excited to get them as you were with those^-^ Although, I place blame on you that one of mine is a 'bladed-4iron'.. Just watched an ol' video of yours, where you used a set of *Mizuno* blades, and they looked & sounded sooo good!. I just couldn't resist their siren-song calling out to me.. (hiiigh handicap player)
Mizuno: What do we do with all these B grade irons that we can’t finish in stainless?
Ah, just polish them up and sell them as a collectors edition set!
Seriously though, they do look pretty good.
Chris Harris, LOL!
I was stupid enough younger to sell Ping copperheads ridigulously cheap. Still, after some 25 years feel bitter for selling them.
I love your enthusiasm Rick, most decent metal finishers can put that finish on any irons.
these are literally in stock on golftowns website right now? How can that be considered rare??
Yeah saw that. In the US though it looks like they aren't available so iono.
I remember waiting for my Mizunos to arrive...felt just like Rick. And just like Rick, just marveled at the beauty of the clubs for an hour. After each and every practice/round, I would meticulously clean and polish the clubs. I've played many clubs but Mizunos are just something special, maybe like a Ferrari?
Imagine going thru life and not playing a round of golf with them....
That's what I'm talkin about! Life's too short.... LIVE!
An interesting side note: Copper does not rust, however, it does corrode. Copper is naturally brown and turns a shade of bright green as it corrodes. While some consider copper's reaction to be tarnish rather than oxidation, the metal still undergoes a similar “rusting” process.
Engineers every crying at the comment that copper clubs will “rust”. 😭
patina? same difference
They oxidize right?
@@cameronallison7334 oxidize/corrode
Raw copper doesn't rust it oxidise's
I was watching this thinking "what are you on about" hahaha
I put head covers on all my clubs stops any damage and also stops the noise of club heads banging into each other when walking this will help keep them in great condition my M5 clubs still look like new after 1 year and 3 rounds a week.
Shots from before the package arrived. Something tells me that you never waited for those 139 likes on Twitter, Rick... 😉
I got a Misuno iron set, can't be more happy.
_"And that can go back in there, never to be used again."_
*Whaaaaaaat!?*
I hit a set of the old McGreggor copper insert Irons,, as well as recreation that I bought when the companies new old stock was liquidated. great feel. Also have a set of VIP woods with eaper shafts and aluminum inserts
You can't lock those beauties up and never let them see the light of day again. That's just cruel.
Go to the local Electric supplies store and buy “de-ox” or “no-ox” it’s a clear/green grease like material, you should get a microfiber cloth and just barely coat each of the club heads with it. They’ll last forever. We use it for all of our terminations to help prevent corrosion on copper and aluminum.
Should definitely game those. They're too beautiful to sit in darkness
Rick should buy another set that has not been hit yet and put these ones in the bag.
I could tell how excited he was when he puts the UPS tuck pulling up in the vid.
I bet Rick is still saying "one more, then they go back in the box."
Seeing you hit that first shot just put a big smile on my face. They look absolutely amazing!!!
*Wife hears the bouncing bass through the walls*
Her: "Are you watching porn in there!?"
Me: " ...of a sort."
*In the background* That is a very, very nice box
“No babe, I’m watching something for more expensive and sexy than porn”
this vid was kinda golf porn ...i think he got a chubby when he opened the box ...LOL
Rick, I hate to write this but the "standard" Mizuno irons, being forged, are Chrome plated. They do not have a stainless steel finish. As far as I know, the only forged SS irons were the very old Kenneth Smith irons from back in the 1960's and 70's.
The only thing rare about my irons is how well I hit them.
Looks great copper goes green and are soft as butter good luck and copper doesn't rust
Those heads in a blacked out shaft and both my shafts would be stiff 😍
89Sod had to read this twice, then I got it!!! Well played!!
my dad has old callsway golds , roughly 20+ years old and they still look brand new and beautiful
The club's would match my ginger hair😂😂
AWESOME!!!! NICE PURCHASE!!! Thanks for sharing them with us!
Most beautiful golfclubs ever made. Fullstop.
I can't think of a better looking set of irons ever?
Love it when you slide the Mizuno box out of the box... you catch your breath... "Wow! what a nice box!" lol!!! Love the child-like joy watching you unbox these!
Amazing clubs, let me never use them again...
Just a point of clarification, copper will not rust, but patina, which, I imagine will actually make these irons even cooler with time. Ironically, the surface of these "irons" shouldn't rust because the copper finish should contain so little actual iron as to prevent iron-oxide from being produced.
They are nice looking for sure but .....yes there’s a “BUT”, I’d feel really cheated if I bought those for that price because the copper is what they use to get the nickel and chrome to bond to the heads. Aren’t they saving some money by not coating them and if so shouldn’t they sale them cheaper? 🤔#justthinkingoutquiet
That's not what Mizuno said, when they made these, they said they used to do it years ago on older clubs, when they blind tested people, with clubs with copper underlay and ones without, almost everyone said they preferred the ones with.
So now MP20s have copper under them.
These were only made because people asked for them that way. Not trying to save money, it was customer request driven.
Ur both right. They used to use the copper for adhesion and feel. And they went away from it for years and as a experiment they brought it back and blind tested and it was night and day for testers. And due to all the hype around the copper heads it almost forced them to bring out copper only heads. Soooo when demand is high. Make em pay! Cha ching.
*pushes up nerd glasses*
technically, copper doesn't rust. it can corrode (and then disintegrate, but that takes quite a long time), if left alone in the presence of oxygen it usually forms that green patina which is mostly harmless (and most patinas are protective). if you want it to stay copper-coloured, you'd have to constantly clean them in a mild acid solution (vinegar and some other things), or coat them with some sort of lacquer or coating, which might work but would probably clog the grooves and need to be reapplied constantly when abraded (like smacking a golf ball across it's surface)
Can someone make a “gorgeous” counter?
Don't forget "stooning"....lol
Joebiz24 stooning is my favorite 😂
Gorgeous: 8
Stooning: 9
Honestly, Rick, you deserve to play them. Only 500 people will get the chance. You’d probably cherish it more than 490 of them at least. Play them. You only live once, enjoy.
*#nothingfeelslikeamizuno*
Love Mizuno irons. Still rocking MP30's
*@2putt_shankur* 😊 ⛳
Excellent username!
I got my mp-60s about 6 months ago as my first real set of clubs
Jpx 850 for me and love them
Got MP-25s as my first real set and absolutely love them
Same, hit a mates TZoid 5I once and knew I had to have some Mizunos. Bought them 2nd hand after they’d been hit a handful of times after Cathay lost my clubs. Been looking lately for the same set as a replacement. Is a new set on eBay out of the states but a bit steep.
Hey Rick, copper doesn't "rust" it does oxidize but to malachite not hematite (rust). A nice blue green finish vs red would be a nice look!
Want to give em to a struggling Aussie that’s been playing with the same set since age 15?
I'm a baseball and golf guy. All of my baseball bats are mizuno. I just love their branding and they make some pretty nice equipment
You've actually made me mad by just leaving them in garage. They're tool and were mad to be used not to just collect dust.
STUNNING! :-) Would love to get a set for my Dad for his 83rd birthday! Yes he can still beat me on the golf course.
"literally feels like christmas"
-Rick every single day of the year
@enriquegalindoanez on instagram
i wanted to see Rick take every single one of them into a bunker and scratch 'em up good just to prove he's a BOSS.
'There's these marks on them where the copper is gonna rust a little bit', nice one Rick :-)
Sweet set of irons......and after two poxy months of sitting at home every weekend I am getting out for 18 holes on Friday afternoon!!!!!
I came to just watch about Mizuno -MO 20's. I just picked up a set of used irons and they look brand new. They kind of cost a lot (in my opinion) $990 for 3-PW.
But, I guess I cannot complain about the results.
Keith Mitchell is planning on putting a set of these in his bag once he and Mizunos master club builder dial in the swing weight and lofts. We should see these in tour shortly.
“Ohh thats a shame, cant put em on the box after last one, ONE MORE ONE MORE ONE MORE.” Cant stop laughing hahahaha. That would be me and my dad for sure. 😂😂😅
I’m not sure what I appreciate more the irons or the nice box they came in
I think ping made some a few years back. You're correct I think they would rust up in no tme flat. they are good looking.
I store my Ping BeCu sets. 1 is with serial number matching from S to 1 iron. But.... like a race car. From time to time i use them for my inner joy 🤗
Rick your a very fortunate man, they are completely stunning
Ping Eye 2 Berylium Copper irons were also beautiful
Like your excitement. I have played mizuno for 20 years. Nice to see you loving them too!
Rick, Copper does not rust. Copper does corrode but if cleaned properly they will last a long time. I have a copper belt buckle that is 50 years old and looks as good as new. Brasso does wonders keeping bass looking new. I would put them in my bag and play a round with them now and then.
Well rick I can’t say I’ve ever seen you so excited! Those are show stoppers
World's rarest irons are the Taylormade RAC MB ZTP Pearl finish Kaymer edition, less than two hundred made by Miura. Never sold to public. Another Rare super design by Katana and forged by Endo in 2002 was TM 303. Rarest Honma irons are Tour Athlete 925, the easiest to hit blades ever. I have these in my small collection, bought new at the time of release
if you want to store them, put them in a plastic storage bag, the type you can vacuum seal, suck out all the air then refill the bag with argon.
(you can get it from welding supplies store), the lack of oxygen I the bag will stop them from oxidising.
Played at Bandon Dunes the other day with my buddies and as we were driving back home we were talking about how some brands are just synonymous with certain types of clubs and how interesting that is. With Mizuno I would never, ever use a driver or a putter - but the irons are probably the best out there....
I have some rare Mizuno MS1 heads that have never been shafted. They have raw faces and have mizuno professional stamping on the back. They are still in a box with Japanese writing on the box.
Wow what awesome irons
I've seen guys with super pretty girls, dream cars....but I don't think I've been more jealous in all my life than watching Rick get these gorgeous copper irons! (wheres the Pete reaction video?)
I had an old set of Shakespeare's with a cooper inset a tiny sweet spot but I loved them..50 years ago..lol I guess I'm old too
