Hi I’m Rick Shiels, welcome to my channel RickShielsPGAGolf. This YouTube 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!

Last year I was averaging over 120 on most courses and sliced my driver so much, it make a boomerang jealous. Rick's videos have not only got me hitting straight (most of the time) but I broke 100 for the first time ever this past weekend. Thanks for the awesome tips Rick!

I swear Rick knows exactly what I’m struggling with at any point in time

Just thankful for Rick. That's all. Free content that's worth more than a box of golf balls I would have lost otherwise
-
I love how you explain every shots , even when sometimes you're shots don't go exactly where you want them to ! For us less than perfect players , this makes us feel really good ! We know exactly what you are trying to say and understand what you are trying to show us ! We understand that when we try , it's not going to be perfect, the first time ! My nemesis has always been the downhill lies , you explained it perfectly , how it needs to be played! Thank you , Patrick

You can’t lie that the noise that the club makes when the ball get hit is INSANELY SATISFYING😉
-
Rick I must say this is one of the most useful videos you’ve ever made. I struggle with at least two of the four scenarios and will ingrain your four types of shots. Wonderful.
-
I have always struggled with ball above and below my feet and you explained the set up in a very clear way, played 9 today and put it to use and noticed a huge improvement. Thanks Rick!

1:23 almost said "me eight iron" lol it's all good Rick, we know you can't hide your inner English! Cheers!

Such high quality, and well organized content. Really appreciate the straightforward practical approach to learning.
-
How do you not love this guy ? Well spoken , the accent and solid advice . Keep up the good work Rick . We appreciate you in Beaverton , Oregon .

I'm left handed, so I love it when you talk "front" and "back" instead of left and right. Front and back help me understand the tips better. Love your tips.

Quality Rick Probably the best 13 minute any golfer could ever have 👍👍👍
-
Rick, best lesson I've seen on this topic and one which most weekend duffers have no clue about. One other thing I was taught about downhill lies is that you should take some practice swings to see where they bottom out. My first couple are always too far behind the ball even if I think I'm set up properly. Would explain some comments here about people chunking shots. Keep up the good work.
-
I absolutely love the fact that you call yourself out on those not so good shots ! Your honesty alone would have my subscription. your examples and explanations are simplified and easy to understand. It's a privilege to have had found your channel. I thank you for your time and advise.. Keep up the great work!
-
I really love Rick's videos, they are simple, not overly complex like other instructional videos. Golf is a mental game and you take yourself out of the game when you approach the ball and try to think about the 10-20 steps and then shank a slot because you're not swinging freely. Get to the basics and make the tweaks after you become better golfer and watch the 10-20 step videos. I recently got back into golf and got the golf bug. Thanks Rick for your useful instructional videos!
-
Great tips. I keep forgetting the direction the ball goes on uphill versus downhill lies. I'm printing off these tips on a card and sticking on my golf cart so I remember.. Age makes us forget, we'll at least me. Love to see more of this style of golf tips on the channel. The graphics really help and the reasoning behind it. Thanks a bunch Rick. My game has seriously improved since I started watching your channel last year. Keep it up!

Love the intro, you're amazing, and have a great day😀!

Rick is killing the Swing instruction industry. Like the Magician who gives all the secrets away....and we thank you. AS for the hanging lie, ball below our feet. My opinion; the reason we mis-hit that shot. Once you start your back swin'g, You brain knows you're out of balance, and tells your thigh muscles "Stand up". I give Rick ton of credit. He's teaching and not worrying about where the ball is landing...he's showing the good, the bad and ugly...

This is the best golf lesson video I've seen in a long time In depth instruction on uneven lies. A common problem with most golfers. Great video Rick. Hats off to you.
