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
He wasn't hitting the balls, they were scared and trying to get away.
Lmao
Ya don’t say
😆
Cant wait to see the "How much can Rick lift" video. :)
😂
Good shout. Snide putting him into a comp where he's hitting a bit less than Tiger and Rory😂🤣😂. Besides it's got to be more about technique than strength? Roy's tiny and doesn't look like a body builder but smashes it into orbit on the regs.
I'm betting 30, at least.
Yes yes yes!! 90kg dead lift... max
@@Abdullah_Chill hes not that tiny man. hes 5'10 have you looked at him? i'd say apart from brooks Rory the most jacked pro golfer going around. he benches a respectable 250 lbs at 160 lbs body weight
This completely justifies the importance of flexibility in golf.
Definitely. Eddie is to chunky to be effective, the range of motion just isn't there.
Absolutely its not all about muscle that's why guys on tour who are 5"8 and 160 hit it 300 plus yds
This absolutely needs to be a new sport. Aggressive strongman golf.
Long drive championship is quite similar
Imagine the chaos to passing aircraft he would cause if he had a proper technique
yea but he cang have a proper one us he is to big
bobdol69 yeah he’s a power lifter so his back is insane, probably largely the reason he can’t have a proper swing. Then his arms...
Yeah his chest wouldn't allow a proper swing.
Mith Randir yeah honestly when you’re that big, rotation isn’t your friend 😂
He seems like such an awesome dude. He seems like he’s up for trying anything.
He's class!
Jörgen wrong. Go and read up on his commercial achievements and things outside of the sport. He is very switched on and the big strong man persona is part of the act.
@@elias9464 He is quite bright to be fair. If you hear him talk about his sport in other places hes got a very good grasp of the biology of it and is very articulate in his explaining.
Rick Shiels Golf haha so class.
@@elias9464 That wasn`t nice of you! he is a very smart guy, who could also crush your skull if he chose to.
"It's like the first man on the moon, who cares about the second" what an outstanding quote!
That would be true if we were talking about the 2nd man to deadlift 500kg. But when the next best guy lifts 510kg or 550kg ect it's like the first man on mars
@@MrMultifunc Yes and no. Sure, it's a new record but he's the first man to lift 500kg. That's a milestone that while might be broken, is probably more noteworthy until we ever reach the next milestone (550?). For example, did you know that Felix Baumgartner's (the guy that jumped from the stratosphere and broke the sound barrier) record was actually broken 2 years later? No one hardly even knows that, let alone his name. We mostly remember the guy who did it first. That said, I've never heard of Eddie Hall because I don't follow weightlifting at all but he'll always be known as the first man to get to 500 I'd imagine.
I've heard people say this quote, or a variation of it, so many times. But I'm pretty sure everyone knows Buzz Aldrin, do they not?
Watching a grown man growl at a golf ball might be the funniest thing I’ve ever seen 😂
Came here for this comment lol
im dead rn ahahaha
I was thinking the exact same thing. Walking in to shots with gritted teeth 😬😆
Sadly, I do that way too often! LOL
Wow watching his swing added 5 strokes to my game.
😂😂😂😂😂 quality!
Sam Dyer LMFAO!
Dare you to tell him that 😂
@@jamesaddison9344why? He would probably just laugh....
Hahahahaha
Definitely a golfer, who knows how to throw an outfit together.
isualum definitely a hunter, who knows how to throw an outfit together
“That’s why golfers have big asses” is my favorite quote by Rick.
I haven’t laughed this hard at a TH-cam video in ages. Eddie is just such a sincere guy. I’m glad he stepped away from lifting for his health.
As a powerlifter and an avid golfer, this video is like a dream come true
Damfit Dallas same 😂
Eddie hits it 2 yards, rick: best shot I've ever seen don't snap me🤣
andy wilson club head speed was marvelous!
I’m literally 200lbs lighter and can hit the ball 200yards with a 5 iron
What I find really impressive is how Eddie was able to pick out the exact muscle groups that influence a golf swing. Crazy how well he knows his body to find the muscles used so easily
To be fair if you just slow down your swing as long as you have a decent mind muscle connection from working out you can feel what it works
We need to see a series of teaching Eddie to play golf!!!!
Who cares about the second?
Buzz Aldrin has left the chat
@Marque Markofthebeast dumbass
Who is that?
A hahahahha laughed more than I should have 😂😂😂😂
@@sethdaboss245 No he is not, wake up, or is it stop willingly supporting lies. How does a rocket work in so called space? How come Buzz would not swear on a bible he had been to the moon? Why is the us flag blowing where there is no wind? Why is there no dust blowing around when the lunar lander landed? You know you and your satanic cross dressing mates will not get away with your fraudulent act forever. God will see to that, I promise you.
@Marque Markofthebeast Dumb ass
Respect for being able to actually hit the ball. I guess golf must be a difficult sport when you are that massive, as I could imagine it being more difficult to rotate in the swing.
Absolutely is. With golf, hip mobility and torsion speed is huge, but in Strongman it's all about explosive verticle speed, strength, and short-range endurance. When you're built like a brick shit house so to speak, it raises the difficulty a lot
Yeah, for an athlete of sorts he didn't have the most athletic swing I've ever seen haha......Definitely the angriest though lol
Yup, in golf, kinda like being a baseball pitcher or cricket bowler, its all about rotational speed essentially. Hes too dense and lacks the flexibility to get proper rotation
@@28russ You try being graceful when your biceps are the size of bowling balls.
You don't need the "when you're that massive." Golf is just an incredibly difficult sport. It's not about raw strength, it's all rotation. One of the top Long Drive winners is Jamie Sadlowski, who is 6 foot something and 170 pounds.
Even if you get all of the twisting down, you still need to make good contact, or all the power is wasted.
This mans literally went out and swung a 8 iron as his first golf swing ever and hit 30 yards less and straighter than my slices with a driver. Eddie Hall is a beast!!!
I just wanted to thank you for your channel. I just started playing golf this past Sep. after my mom passed away to keep my dad active. I have learned so much from you and have found a love for a game that I thought I was to old to learn. Thank you again for all that you do.
Think I'd rather stand in front of Eddie hitting the ball than behind. Lovely gear though
😂

Some say Eddie has to drink a bottle of water each hole just to keep himself from being dehydrated.
😂 true
"bottle of water"
ahem, you spelled cranberry juice wrong
I was really scared he was gonna take out your simulator thing on a few of those
Best video I've seen in aaaaaaaages. Eddie is a class act. Loved how he psyched himself up for the big number. Some of those strikes were hilarious. He took it really well didn't he.
When you watch both of these guys channels and then they do one together.
Legendary!
👌
After whiffing the ball and cursing like a sailor, he’s definitely a golfer now! 😂
Brilliant idea Rick!!! Love this guy. You should give him lessons twice a month and chronicle his development. I bet he'd drive 300 carry on a good day. Such a treat to see this today.
This was awesome and hilarious. Loved Rick's gifts for Eddie. I can only imagine what the other punters at that driving range were thinking - wish I'd been there myself!
Eddie Hall’s got a better golf swing then Charles Barkley 😂
So does Shaq
Make an interesting match.
lmc1dj I’d love to see it
@@christopherbraley7571 celebrity death match incoming
Saw Barkley recently where his swing looked pretty good. He's been doing some work with Stan Utley and his seems to have him reasonably straightened out.
Wow! 2 guys I always watch. Never thought I’d see them in a video together! Awesome, just awesome
Thanks so much!
Me too, awesome 😎
Same!0
Imagine if he could keep that left arm straight and just transfer that rotational energy...
Well it wouldn’t be possible for him because his muscles are too big for his arm to stay straight
He could start by keeping his eye on the ball
his damn chest is in the way LOL
You should start a series like this. Interview other athletes from other sports and take them to the range. Great content!
Favorite golf channel, hosting my favorite strongman competitor!
Eddie is huge! Surprised he was able to get around on the ball so well.
This guy is an amazing human being to agree to go on your show and do this. He could easily make a fool of himself playing golf but yet so humble. Great video idea Rick!
Love this video. I follow both channels and never did i think they would be in a video together. Great content like always...keep killing it Rick.
Love your channel Rick!!! I've always been keen on lifting and bodybuilding, and I love golf. So to see Eddie on with you was a real treat. Thanks to Eddie as well, YOU ROCK MAN!!!
Thanks so much
The poor people at the driving range 😂
Probably scared for their life
Its awesome to see two of my favorite athletes hanging out. I get a lot of good tips from you, Rick, but Eddie is purely entertainment value. I'll never be on his level with my lifting, but it's a sport I enjoy and Eddie is a complete lunatic in his videos. I spend a lot of time wiping tears from my eyes when he's clowning around on his Ninja Warrior, yoga, and swapping meals videos. Thanks for the collaboration.
I would love to see Rick work more with this guy and see the progress over say 6 months. Great video!
I like this guy, seems like a great person.
He doesn't look to be to dehydrated in this video. I'm shocked.
I love this channel. It's helped me in golf normally, but it's also just so fun to watch. Great job Rick
What an absolute hero. Eddie seems like such a good laugh. Great video guys
"Well that ladies and gentleman, that's a trick shot right there...." Hahahah, frickin hilarious!
The Hulk tries golfing
golf makes Hulk ANGRY!!!
What a legend! The content you produce is always fun and exciting to watch . Keep up the good work!
I love watching Rick's channel and Eddie seems like a stellar dude and I bet that was a blast for both of them to do. I'm a VERY avid golfer that has never taken a golf lesson in the 6 years I've been golfing and I can imagine that that's probably what my swing looked like when I first picked up a club too and it was almost painful to watch lol. I would love to see eddie do this again after 2 month of lessons and refine his technique a little.
Oh wow what a cross over, two of my favorite people
Thanks so much
My heart sank when he broke that club :(
Most of my TH-cam subscriptions are golf or strongman channels, but I never thought I'd see them crossover like this. Glad you and Eddie collaborated!
I've been watching both you of for years. This is a dream come true.
Laughed the whole time then lost it when it lodged into the roof. Such a likeable dude and a good sport.
Class idea, and great video! Worrying how fast he could hit it with some practice.
Subscribed and here because of Eddie. Also watching your version right now. Your channel is perfect! Much information for all. Keep up the great work!
Best thing about this video is that he just seems like a genuinely nice dude. Great video!!!!
I love watching Eddie. He’s such a genuine guy!
Watching him get pumped up is the scariest thing I've seen in a long time....and I saw a Mountain Lion a few days ago
Eddie Hall doing stuff videos is always entertaining. thanks, be well.
Big fan of eddie’s! Loved this video!
Eddie is the man! Great video.
Yes he is
If the big man can harness that power into a golf swing. Wow I can only imagine
Two of my favorite TH-camrs in one vid! Thanks for making this!
Thanks for watching!
Legend! Nice episode! Well done!
first thing i thought of when i saw him....was 'Beast'...cool dude..
rick looked so excited when he was giving the eddie the 50in driver.
What a brilliant video. Two great characters making some fun golfing content. The Beast knocked that range to bits!
Brilliant, two genuine people. Love it
Wow! First time and he’s swinging over 100 mph?!!! Train him for long drive!
Dildo Baggins For the first time golfing I think that’s pretty nuts. I know long drive is up there around 150.
“If anyone can beat it go for it”
The Mountain: “hold my beer”
Great job in creative content not just this video but your entire channel. Great job
What an awesome vid! Great job.
That poor divider wall 🤣🤣 Way to go Eddie!
The way he approaches the golf ball😂
Two of my fav guys in one vid!!! Do more of these!!
Love this. Rick's videos are great. Thanks for the content. However, jealous that he had time with this gentleman. My dream is to have just one day in the gym with Eddie. Great stuff either way!
I was hoping to see ball flight of his straightest shot.
There wasn't one to show
He is so big it looked hard for him to have a normal swing
This was absolutely brilliant, laughed so much when he was hulking up and his trick shot was comical making the ball land back on the tee 😂😂
I love Eddie.. such a humble man
That 50 inch driver looks like a kids club when he is holding it lol.
Kudos to Eddie for being a good sport!!
I 100% approve this message! Eddie "The Beast" Hall has some serious golfing potential! Brand new to the game, and hits the car on the FIRST swing. Absolutely Fantastic! Awesome vid Rick!
this was awesome to watch, great fun! 👍
“If anyone can beat that fair play.” - Thor gets 501kg... same day Eddie and Thor are now set for a boxing match lol
It’s because of the 2017 strongman drama where Thor claims he was cheated but actually wasn’t and everyone believed him hence tarnishing Eddie halls name and title, there’s a documentary on it, but in the end Eddie won fair and square while Thor cried to his mommy and his yes man team.
@@matthewl2941 It was Thor who was cheating. Double pumping instead of locking out
They are getting millions of dollars
@@TvConfusionn You don't say ?
The problem Eddie had with Thor's lift was that it wasn't in a tournament setting. In tournaments, you have to do multiple lifts in a row with a very minimal break, and despite all that Eddie still managed to deadlift 500kg. Thor likely warmed up, got set, did the one lift, then walked off. There is no way that Thor could be so much stronger than Eddie that a lift that made the latter almost pass out could be done so easily if the same conditions were met.
I am encourageing him to keep on trying for golf. In 2 years he could probably be side by side with Rory
If Eddie was side by side with Rory McIlroy, you wouldn't see Rory!
Awesome Eddy......knighthood for Eddy, services to entertainment.
This man is the true definition of a competitor. First day with a club in his hand and doing great. It made him MAD that he wasn't doing better. Great job, both of you. I know this was just an exhibition but if he wants to learn, technique first, speed next.
Love Eddie Hall! He's such a legend and looks like an all round nice dude too 👍🏻
Get him on the course Rick, he was hitting the irons well 👌🏻
Could you image him and Charles Barkley playing a round together 😂
Still a better swing than Sir Charles.
That was way more entertaining than it should have been. Eddie's got such a good personality
I loved his attitude. Fun video! Thank you.
The "sky" marks on that driver must be something else.
5:16 :
The ball went around the earth and came back
The earth is a plane, get it, hence word planet.
I love your videos, just found your channel earlier this week. I've always loved golf and played alot when I was younger. Unfortunately as I got older I didn't have as much time due to work and also it is hard to afford to be able to just get out and play a round. I've always had a strong passion for golf and I always will. Maybe some day I'll be able to get back on the course fairly regularly and try to get back to where I was. Being from Canada it doesn't help with having long winters some years.
Two of the best people to watch great vid. 👍
Its not easy with T-rex arms!
Hilarious - we all try and “hit” the ball so hard vs. swinging through the ball on on our club path.
Your videos are usually educational but this was so much fun and hilarious. I love Eddie Hall btw, such a competitor.
Great episode!!!
