I love all your content Rick!
I can’t stop watching your videos!
Thanks Rick
Each time I get a notification I watch.
need help for short game
Nice
I'm 72 and a 15 handicap. If I could chip, I probably would be a 10. I have worked and worked and worked on my chipping. Looked at a lot of tips. Watched many videos and nothing seems to work. But then I came across this technique I used it today (before even practicing it) and have never chipped so well. Amazing! Incredible! If you're having problems, I would give it a try. Thanks Rick!
The greatest words ever spoken concerning GOLF: "If you have confidence, it's easy to do!"
Really good drill for beginners as well as tjeu get used to chipping they can lessen the acute angle of the club💪💪💪👍👍👍
Well, confidence only helps a little. Got the new RBZ driver (using Rick's advice) and took it to the range yesterday. Wow. I mean wow. Best day at the range I've ever had. Then today, played 18 with my old man, and played the worst round of golf in my life. My confidence was unbreakable when I walked up to the tee. Until after I hit the ball. 🤦♂️😂
@@theg.c.142 I feel this so hard lol I'll go to range and do all the techniques I see in videos and do just fine, hit the ball great. Then I'll go play and not be able to hit the ball for shit.....
@@RVZL2008 it hurt. Gotlucky and I turned it around the next day. Shot plus 8 after 18. Best round I've had this year. I stopped counting the game before when I hit 15 over. Gotta love playing sporadic lol. Have a good day bro. 👍🏻
Concerning LIFE!
I've always found distracting my playing partners then tossing the ball with my hand towards the cup to be my most successful chipping technique. I guess this works too though.
I tried that once, they saw me and I made a bad throw
@@oliverholmes217 🤣🤣🤣. You have to throw a handful of sand with the other to make it more realistic. Lol
@@HokiePitcher22 That seems like a strategy I'll give it a shot
This is a legal move on Canadian courses….I hope!
Ha...good one.
RICK !!! My 90 yr old dad who in his prime was a 2 hdcp , has been having an awful time chipping , I showed him this video , he reluctantly tried it ...and , No shanks , No duffs < No thinned chips , he is smiling again ...Thank you , thank you , thank you !!!
Rick, I've been golfing for 40 years, your teaching videos are priceless. They have totally changed my way of playing for such a very needed improvement. Thank you!
This stroke style been keeping pensioners at scratch since the dawn of modern golf
Very wise very wise.....
@gilroy none been there bro. Good tip.
gilroy none problem is, the chipper takes a club outta your bag. If you can afford to lose one go for it.
People ask me why I don’t put from the fringe, well local greenskeepers aren’t mowing it super low, it gets spongey and it’s inconsistent. Rather just skip all of it and get on the safe stuff
@@dylanzrim1011 you aren't that consistent and accurate
This video is a godsend! Thank you Rick, my morning round went so smoothly today! I actually LOOKED FORWARD to short chips! Complete transformation. Thank you!
I just recently saw this video and tried to put this technique to use in my game. I have had immediate success and it has reduced my scores from 90+ to the mid 80s in a matter of weeks. I think this is one of your best tips Rick. Thank you very much!
My golfing buddy who used to be a local GC pro showed me this technique a few months ago and it has been all I ever use now for green-side chipping. It really works and gives me more confidence around the greens. Way to go Rick!
A part of my game have always struggled with, heard of this ‘technique’ before and recently started applying it - absolutely brilliant, and even tried a 7 iron from lite rough too, for a little extra low punch - and it works !!
Rick, been watching your videos for about a month now and I have went from consistent high 90's to low 80's and continue to improve. You are the man! Keep up the good work!
Thank you! I tried this yesterday and thank goodness I now have a fighting chance. So much easier and way more consistent. I think this is also a great way to teach new players. Great video and again thanks.
Chipping around the green has always been a hit & miss affair with me, so I’ll be giving this technique a go. I’m hoping to knock a few more strokes off the card. Keep these tips coming Rick, much appreciated.
Just hood the club with a 9 iron...more consistent and you will learn the run out distance eventually.
I love this video! Definitely needed this seeing how my chipping was in my last couple of rounds! 😂
Thanks Rick. I watched this first thing this morning before my early comp tee time. So many up and downs nailed using this technique. Ended up shooting my best ever score.
Rick, this video helped me so much. I'm a beggining golfer and was able to get a solid few chipping shot in my last round. Thanks so much! You're the man! 🙌
Thanks for explaining about the toe, Ive always wondered if I was chipping right trying to keep the club more vertical
I had a golf lesson yesterday, to look at exactly this. I"m a relatively new golfer and my pitching is SHOCKING. I could not adapt, hole by hole, to anything that I could find that worked. My teacher asked me to do exactly (100%) what you have just described, and it worked for me. He described it almost like a putting shot. We all need more confidence to enjoy our game. Thanks Rick!
Played 9 today. Used this technique for the first time. Made an amazing difference in my close game. Thank you so much sir. Keep up the good work.
I have had the ch-yips for 2 years, and I'm giving you and Andy Carter combined credit for helping my chipping game. I used the technique in this video last time out on the course and hit 6 of 7 chips well, using an 8 iron instead of my wedges. Thank you!
Hey Rick, I would love to see a video of you chipping around the green where there is more a hard/flat surface and show what is the best technique for a little flop shot or chip and run. Love the videos and your advice and techniques are definitely improved my game but I am sure a lot of us get stuck on these hard surfaces where the ball isn’t always sitting on carpet.. keep up the awesome videos as I am hooked 👍🏻🏌️♂️⛳️
Great video Rick, thank you. I’ve been practicing my chipping in the garden whilst in lockdown. For some reason I was shanking close to half my attempts, getting more and more frustrated. After watching your video I headed back out to the garden today and hit close to 200 chips and didn’t shank a single one!! Thanks so much.
My wife and I started using this technique after watching this video over this winter and was simply amazed at how much easier this is, not foolproof but almost. A definite confidence Builder. Thank you Rick.
Hey Rick, love your videos!! You have made me such a better golfer through your coaching videos!! Great tip for chipping! Keep up the good work!!
I’ve been struggling like no other from this spot. I watched this video before bed yesterday. Got to the course early. Practiced it for 1/2 hour and I was ready to go. It was amazing. My knees and head use to become jelly. Cheers mate. This was the greatest chipping tip I’ve seen.
Would love to see Rick take a 3 month break, then release a video out of nowhere called “Does adding 20 lbs of muscle improve your score?”
Rick Swoll hitting par 5s in one
I would rather know how he managed to gain 20lbs of muscle in 3 months hahaha
adrian lawson well the follow up video would be: Trenbolone: raging your way to a lower handicap
adrian lawson anabolic steroids of course
😄
Amazing hand eye coordination there Rick! I love how you just picked up the golf balls with your wedge with one hand and then bounced it off the club into your hand. Very cool stuff. Another helpful video, especially if you are feeling nervous about a chip, I agree with the mind set and reasoning as to why you may want to use this chipping technique in certain situations and especially for beginner golfers to help gain their confidence. Cheers
THANK YOU. Rick, love all your content. Started taking golf a bit more seriously back in early November as a more of a hobby as opposed to the occasional hack I would do with some friends maybe once a year. Prior to lockdown I was going to the range maybe once a week to practice some of the tips and tricks I’ve seen on your channel. Since lockdown I’ve managed to play 18 rounds. I’ve had quite a rapid journey of improvement and a lot of that has been helped the the content on your channel and just wanted to extend my thanks for all that you do. Ive gone from shooting just in the 100s to shooting on average around 90. I’ve also shot +10 twice and I’m now completely hooked with the game. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to the next video and shooting into the 70s. ⛳️🏌🏼
I’m a scratch golfer/ give lessons to young amateurs and Highschoolers and I can say my number one advice is never decelerate. Your backswing determines your power and so many people decelerate when they swing and it always messes them up
Do you mean let the club swing forward naturally and not give any resistance or hold back?
Like a pendulum. Your backswing should be equal to your forward swing.
@@johnmcgahern3946 this is a late reply…. BUT… if you’re using the shoulders for the primary muscle to drive the putter’s stroke chip shot, your club speed shouldn’t slow down after contact compared to your backswing speed. When golfers rely on their wrists, it’s much easier to mess this up because the wrists can break open easier with bad contact with the club and ground.
That’s me.
Thank you so much for this tip Rick!!! I don’t know how many times I’ve overshot my chance for a par around the green... This technique actually worked! Keep up with the excellent videos, they really do help improve my game.
Every single one of your videos is brilliant, easy to follow and delivered perfectly. Thanks for improving my game, keep up the good work 👌💪
As soon as I saw this video I thought yes this is gonna be what I would call my putting stroke chip shot this video should help so many people keep up the great work rick
Just waited for the moment you said: “almost like a putting stroke”. 😂 the sentence most used, when you talk about chipping - even more than you would use it when you talk about putting. 😂😉
Times, I just want to through my club, but you make every video so humble, makes me remember why I love golf in the first place. Thanks Rick.
Thanks for this Rick. Started using this method and my chipping is more consistent now with far less thinning of the ball. Excellent!!!
Rick Shiels is the only golfing CZcamsr I watch. Breaks down everything so clearly and to every detail. This guy actually helped me play better. Keep up the good work!!
Using an 8 iron for short chip shots was the best advice I've gotten in golf and probably took five strokes off of my game. Thank you.
5 strokes? lol
@@Mr._Chievous think of all the chili dips and skulls it will save you. 5 strokes doesn't seem like much for an average golfer with a handicap in the 20s.
@@ryanp6999 maybe 5 strokes for a 40 handicap, but then, you aren't really a golfer
@@Mr._Chievous Ah yes, more elitism in golf. Such a parasitic mindset.
@@Mr._Chievous I'm guessing you think you're shortgame is OK, or even good, I'd bet $20 it sucks. Without knowing anything about you.
I have been watching your videos but have not played in a month or so. I finally got out yesterday and tried using some of the things I learned from a few of your videos. Started off sketchy, but what I soon found was I never duffed a chip because of this video, I sliced less and straightened out my drive because of your slicing video where you talked about cocking the wrist slightly and I was also hitting the irons straighter (almost had my first ace!). Thanks Rick, enjoying the videos! Can't wait to learn more and get back out there.
I just started golfing in March of this year and it’s safe to say I’m completely obsessed
You have no idea how much you have helped improved my score! Thank you so much mate. Massive cheers! 🎉
Glad the video wasn’t 20 minutes long
I generally try my best to hit the ground about 3 inches behind the ball so that nothing good can come from any attempt, but to each their own I guess.
:-) Hahahaha!!
Brilliant! 😂
Sam, really. One of the best chipping comments ever. Story of my chipping life. Good one.
Agreed. I like this technique as well. I also find that lifting one's head 2 seconds prior to impact is likewise helpful.
I like to stare at the club going back just to make sure it's going back the right amount of distance.
loved this tip. really changed my way of chipping onto the green where i always struggled to have the confidence to chip (with a poor result) cheers Rick.
thank you Rick ,have been watching you since i started playing which at 69 was a late bloomer,but all your videos have been such a great help. keep up with all the good things you do.
I love chipping and putting ! They're my favorite part of golf. I think everyone should be better considering you can practice without paying like the range. Just a little practice here and there will help you gain loads of strokes.
I'd rather lose strokes, not gain them xP
1:08 “you’ll see... gOlFeRs oN tV” 😂
🤣🤣
I learned this technique years ago when I was given a lesson by Bill Moretti in Austin, TX. Thanks for reinforcing this again.
This is incredible, I needed this advice, thanks for the vid I’m going to be taking this strat to the course very soon
Video summary:
Putt with a wedge
"Putting with a wedge" and "putter instead of wedge" are the two best greenside moves you can make. Everybody defaults to the risky micro pitch or flop shot.
This man loves giving away expensive clubs
He should, you, me, & everyone else on you tube have made him rich. Keep watching & liking !! I do !!!
You helped me so much yesterday!! I did what you said about standing closer and keeping tie in ground. WORKED PERFECT
Thank you for posting these. It’s so much help.
I’m just not a Facebook guy..... “I would do anything for you Shielsy, but I won’t do that”-Meatloaf
Great video Rick! I will try that first thing in the morning
It just keeps getting funnier and funnier. 😂😂
'Thanks for watching. If you enjoy this video, please thumbs-up, like, subscribe, follow, tweet, tik tok, share, forward, call, email, affix bumper-stickers, shout from rooftops, flag down strangers, pray, plead, beg, borrow, steal,...'
I'm with you. No Facey. Ain't going back either.
Now if I can just carry you around while I golf... 😂😂
You now can! Carry around Rick right in your pocket! CZcams on the smartphone. You’ll start to take 10 minutes between shots but your score will plummet as well!
I came back to this video to comment this: I watched it last night because I’m always topping the ball and shooting it over the green or flopping it and barely moving the ball. My wedges were horrendous! This worked brilliantly. I’ve only been golfing for 3 weeks and this helped me so much!
Out of all the videos I've watched on chipping, not one ever taught to keep the heel of the club off the ground. Tried this and at first I was topping everything until I trusted it and purposely tried to hit the ground behind the ball. What a HUGE difference this made! Great tip!
Rick just putt when I’m within 15 feet of the green 😂
Exactly. No need to chip 😂
This works great, I can get it closer with a putter than with a wedge.
I’ll put within 15 yards from the pin 😂
You all putt out of the rough?
If it’s on the fringe or the border of the rough.... yup
The answer is to use beef fat dripping at a high temperature.
Perfect chips everytime.
Ha ha
and you have to dab the chips with kitchen roll and salt them "before" you put them in the pan too - result perfect deep brown juicy chips!! :)
Played a round of 9 last week for the first time in over a year. I still remembered this video and this helped massively in my chip shots.
2 hours spent on this technique today has rejuvenated my love for golf getting up and down 9 out of 10 thanks Rick 😊
Rick sheils: Always giving away Expensive clubs.
Experior golf: very slim.
We call that technique “PUTTING”
This is by far my favourite golf channel. Rick you are a genuine golf genius and I thank you for helping me with my game. The only thing i have issues with is you make me wanna spend all my money on different clubs and really try to make my game peak. Tough pill to swallow 😂😂😂✌🏽🇨🇦
Definitely one of the best folks I have found on CZcams to help my game, many thanks from Australia Rick
Who here wishes they could get into the giveaway but can’t because they don’t have Facebook
people still have facebook?
I look at it this way:
It's part of Rick's job to increase viewership. It would be an irresponsible business model not to... that's how you reach people.
It's my job to make him feel bad enough about that business model to send me a Ping G410 with a Tensei Orange 60 shaft.
CP2 wrap grip if it's not too much trouble buddy. 😂😂😂
Asking people why are they blue:
Stranger: I got money issues
My friend: I got marriage issues
Me: I got chipping issues
I watched this video last night and today I played 18 holes. I must say, this tip made my close game far more consistent. even out to 25ish yds, this tip changed my game. thanks rick!
Excellent tip Rick, has helped me no end around the greens. Before I used to hit too much ground trying to get club under the ball. Now I'm chipping a lot closer to the pin I don't even have to take the putter out of the bag👍
The person reading this may you have an amazing day and may you stay blessed with your lovely family and may your dreams come true..
My dream is to have 20k.. I been struggling to get there..,,,,.. 😊
You’re not gunna get where you want to be by virtue signalling to god 😂😂😂😂 you gotta work
@@dylanzrim1011 my content is also good, just see once and then tel me if i dont work hard?
Thanks for sharing this tip, gave it a go in the backyard today and within no time hitting little 5-7m chips more often than not. Now for the course.
Rick, first time golfer and love the videos! I’m struggling with chipping and these videos have helped already a lot. I am curious though what to do when chipping on an uneven surface around the green like on a slope up and or down? Also, what about a 50 yard chip shot as in what club to use and how much or a back swing? Finally, for all chip shots, where should the weight be? Thanks again for all your awesome videos!!
Took this technique onto the course tonight and it worked a dream! Thank you rick!
Took this advice to the range today and it helped me tremendously with my middle chips shots (15-30 yd)... my short chips are above par but applying these techniques next round out
This is huge!! I can’t wait to try this next time I’m out. I’ve always hated chipping because I’m scared of hitting too soft or hard!
Rick thanks to you I am actually starting to get better at golf. Thank you!
Great tip - I’ve never been that bad at chipping, but I haven’t been all that consistent either. This looks like it could help me improve around the green
Been watching a lot of your vids lately Rick. Taken some great tips. Shot the round of my life yesterday. 78 on a par 71. Beat my previous best by 7 strokes. Thanks for the tips.
This video was very much appreciated thank you ! Going to try this hopefully it works for me .
Thanks for another tip. I will implement this once spring arrives. Stay safe during Covid and keep those videos coming!
Thanks for the tip Rick! Gonna go try this at the practice green now
Rick, I have been using this putting chip technique for years, good advice! Also, I read about & use a chipping method that utilizes my 6i, 8i, & PW. For a level green, 6 iron 1/4 fly distance & then 3/4 run. For the 8 iron, 1/3 fly distance & then 2/3 run. For the PW, 1/2 fly distance & 1/2 run. If the green is sloping away from you, naturally go down a club, i.e. 7i for 6i, 9i for 8i, GW for PW. If the green is going uphill, then reverse the clubs, i.e. 5i for 6i, 7i for 8i, 9i for PW.
I've played bump and roll with my 5 iron for years in this situation using this same pendulum type swing. It works! I will try it now using the toe of a wedge. Great video Rick
Rick! I came back to this video to thank you for this tip. It has helped me shave a fair few shots off my handicap and I even managed to bag a couple of chip in eagles for the first time ever. Thank you!!
That actually helped me keep my confidence today and allowed me to get the ball on the green 9 out of 10 times. Next stop, getting the distances right with the different clubs. Brilliant tip this one. Thank you.
Excellent tip. I’ve been using this for years. I think it was called a ‘chip putt’ back in the day. You can use any iron or wedge for this but by raising the handle the face of the club will point right (for right handers). So you will need to close the club face slightly before taking your grip.The more lofted the club, the more you need to close the club face in order to hit it straight. It’s really reliable, once you get the hang of it and great from tangly green side lies as the club is much less likely to get stuck in the grass.
i've been really struggling with this part of my game,so much so i even bought a chipper!!! it was binned after a couple of rounds......had a comp today,saw the video last night ,so when i got to the course i popped on the practice area ,lobbed a few balls down and tried it......it worked a treat!!! used it quite a few times during the round,no thins,no duffs!!! it actually works.....
In the past I would automatically go for my 56 or 60 degree. Looked great when it worked. But there were occasions when I duff or thin. This "toe down" technique works great. Very easy to implement and get right every time. A real stroke saver.
Did some practice, with a Sand Wedge and Pitching Wedge following this tip, today and yes it very much works. In 100 efforts I only duffed twice. Big thankyou.
Went from a 1 handicap 10 years ago to completely losing my short game. Went out and practiced this technique...wow. Best I've chipped in a really really long time. Thank you.
This is one of the best techniques to keep from chunking or hitting a flyer around the green. Enjoy your videos. Wish we had a used club place like the one you and Peter Finch used in the UK.
So enjoyable......Faldo is amazing. He stands over shots, sounding unsure, yet he has every shot you would ever need. One of the greatest ever.
I struggled with my chipping on Sunday, will definitely give this a go next round - I’ll head to the club early and warm up with chips, putts. Cheers Rick
Short...and sweet!..I shall try this very soon, thank you!!!
I can not thank you enough for this amazing golf trick! This helped me out so much today!
Been watching the videos for a while now, went and got a set played my first game this weekend had an amazing time! Cheers Rick
It's like you knew my pops needed this video. He was duffing chips all day today. Good video Rick! I shared it to him. 😎👍🏻
Rick, thank you, i was struggling so much with chipping would always duff or hit them fat. This basic tip has transformed how i chip the ball even had a few chip ins because of this!
Absolutely works! Thanks Rick!
Having watched this on Facebook, I tried this out and, to my surprise, it works brilliantly!!! Thanks Rick. Great tip!!!
Rick, thank you sir! I tried your technique and it worked, got up and down the two times I used it. Hoping that it will save me some strokes so I can break 80 more often. Appreciate your help, keep up the good work.
