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

Paid promotion? I thought you were better than that after 2m subscribed and 1/2b views. Don’t sell yourself your worth more than that.
Did they actually make you hit your approaches off that little mat? Bummer
Mate, you are by far the greatest golf CZcamsr. This felt like just a paid for advert. It was a real turn-off for your regular subscribers. Your independence is a major reason we watch.
@@peterdray9921 Speak for yourself please. I'm a subscriber as well and I think it's awesome what Rick has accomplished so far and now he is reaping the benefits of it. It's an independent sponsor which has no influence on what Rick has to say about golf. @Rick, well done mate, love your stuff as always!
Rick, where's my golf clubs? Did I win anything from your giveaways??
Rick just wanted to say that this past year every bit of content you have released has dramatically improved!! Your doing incredible stuff for the golf world, keep it up!
Agreed!
His golf has not
@@_SGR_ painful to watch, 4 videos per month it's not like he doesn't have the time, or means to practice. Jesus, he went from damn near scratch to a 10 handicapper in a couple years, with a simulator and a putting green at home. No wonder he doesn't film course vlogs anymore, I think Rick knows he will get absolutely smoked
If you like commercials, because that is what this is.
Agreed! I’ve only picked up golf about 6 months ago, Rick has been a huge part of why I enjoy the game so much
Rick, I'm a junior golfer who started just over a year ago because of your video of the callaway edge set. At the weekend I won my first tournament, and I couldn't have done it without you and the golf videos you make. Keep it up and have a great year!
Go on then lad
Hell yeah brother
Keep goin my boy
GWAN LAD
Congrats!!!
That piece of sand art was quite fantastic-bravo fan! Maybe one day I’ll be able to hop the pond from the states and see this site first hand. Thanks Rick! ❤️⛳️
After watching this Rick. My wife and I can't wait for July. You did a great job. I played the Old Course in 2019 just before Covid stuffed World travel. Well we have our tickets to The 150th Open for Saturday and Sunday and getting so excited that we have the opportunity to return. It will be HUGE and being part of the 150th Open at the Old Course. Well it just doesn't get better than this. I am one very happy Aussie. My non golfing wife is also excited after playing her your videos over the past months and now she is just as excited as I am. For us " Everything Has Led To This " Love that
Got a blast of nostalgia/memories of golf trips at 3:11 oddly enough but I think I know why. There is no better feeling than waking up a little puffy eyed, getting into your golf attire, having breakfast with your boys all dressed up, sipping oj and coffee, groggy but excited, while the sun is shining in, before having a great day of golf. Then a couple pints at the clubhouse after, in town with dinner and at the pub late night. Rinse and repeat. Scottish golf trips are the best.
Thanks for the memories Rick. From Texas and played the Old Course many years ago. What a tremendous experience! Cheers.
Thanks for taking me along Rick , much appreciated 👍🥃🇨🇦
It is the greatest place on earth in my opinion. Love playing there and will go back before I die. Great video Rick!
Was so surreal to play those last two holes with you!
Cinched it!
@@RickShielsPGA hahaha all square though 2 holes… I’ll take that
nice!
love it. you should do the himalayas putting next time you are in St Andrews. it's next to old course car park.
I am a junior golfer and I love learning about the golf content you release
Rick have been subscribed for a long time. Congrats on all your hard work. You make golf a better place.
Went to St Andrews last October for 48 hours. Loved it. Wonderful place.
Few years back, I was working at Leuchars for 3 weeks, 10 mins from St Andrews. Was meant to fly up from our base in Oxfordshire, but drove from home in Warrington instead. Filled my car with golf gear and played about 8 or 9 rounds of golf between work days. Got on at The Old Course, beat my hcap by 7 shots. Absolutely magical! Love St Andrews. ❤️
Rick's enthusiasm about this place is contagious!
Every time I see your video’s about st Andrews it brings back memories. Good to see to your thoughts are the same about st Andrews, the town and the course are the same!! Keep on going Rick
Rick I've recently got back into golfing after a 10 year break. Last time I really played regularly was in high school. My game has significantly improved by just watching your coaching videos and I was never able to hit a 3 or 4 iron. Best I'd hit a ball and get very poor results. Just got back from the range and took my time with just my 4 iron. Straight as an arrow and my furthest shot was 168 yards. I've been more consistent with my swing, stance, yardage, everything. I'm actualy putting the ball where I aim now. Not bad, not great; looking for a coach in my local area. Thank you for all that you do! You absolutely deserve all the subscribers and views you get. All around though my short game and long game have significantly improved. Thank you so much.
I never tire off St Andrews just love it,looking foward to the 150th Open and the history in the making.
Brilliant watch! So close with the chip on the last!! Best one yet…💪
Rick, an infinite thank you from the USA. I did get to go to St.Andrews some 20 years ago and played the New Course. Have wanted to return to play the Old Course. It looks like April 2022 will be the time. Going to enjoy a great Scotland outing with my brother. I'll watch all your St. Andrews videos often before I come. Again many thanks
Just got tickets for the Thursday and Friday. Can't wait to visit the home of golf!
Warts and all golf, love it! 👏⛳️🏌️
you have officially arrived sir, well done Rick you deserve success, i stared golf 1 year ago as a 46 yr old shooting 110, thanks to your videos i am now consistently shooting 81 - 85
Hi Rick from me in the Shetlands. I have to say what a fantastic Vid. And it brought back a special memory to me as 12-14 years ago I did the same trip as you with my Dad I was in my 60s then but my old Dad took me there to show me where he stayed when he played the old course.and it was the same as you .so thanks once again for the memory. Keep up the great work
I had the pleasure of visiting St Andrews last year and visited the old course when skiving from work
Love the place would be great to play there one day
Also one of my favorite places! Got to visit St. Andrews with my wife in 2016 and I'm taking my 7-year-old son to The Open in July for his first visit!
Still a bucket list trip for me… maybe some day. Cheers Rick! 🥃
You must have waited and waited and WAITED to get to the old course with that weather, especially up in Scotland! As Mastercard would put it: priceless. Great video Ricks
Coming over the pond for the Open, couldn't be more excited. Hope to see some of you fine folks out there!
Great video: brings back a lot of wonderful memories.
Having been associated with several universities, St Andrews has always been where my heart is. The town is magical (not least for golf, even though I didn't play properly, I just did putting) and the university is exceptional.
My hall room looked directly over to the Old Course Hotel and the Jigger Inn. I never got bored of the view. I did play the Old Course once (it was closed on Sundays and if you got up at first light, you could get round before the green keepers arrived and chucked you off), but the less said about my score, the better. It wouldn't have won the Open.
Been to St Andrews a couple of times to watch an Open, when a pupil was playing in the wee wonders and on business. For anyone who loves golf the whole town is amazing. Never played it, but its one on the list.
It's pretty boring to be honest. Underwhelming and Kingsbarns and Carnoustie are better if you're in the area.
I’m living vicariously right now. Thanks Rick
Love the Old Course Hotel and the Jigger Inn. I was fortunate to stay there a few years back. Magical place. If you do visit the Jigger Inn do not swear it is not allowed they will kick you out. St Andrews is a great place only downside it's full of students :) On a golfing note if you have not played the Old Course you can't get a true sense of how huge the greens are. You can hit the green in 2 and still have 40 yards to the pin.
@rick not sure if you'll see this but you've inspired me to get back into golf since 2021, and i've broken the 100 and 90 milestones while watching your videos, thank you and congrats on the 2 large.
And I thought only those hearty souls from Wisconsin enjoyed Old Fashions..............................Good for you Rick!
Nothing beats St Andrews! Been lucky enough to play the course and I stay a stones throw from the town that I often visit. It’s a wonderful place especially if you’re into golf! A little crowd gathered there for the 18th tee shot!
Hey just want to love your video keep it up who else is excited for the golf season ⛳️ 🏌️
Absolutely love adverts - love em!
2:41 that's "i've had a few beers" hair lol
st andrews is a gorgeous place to visit! i went there 3 times and always loved just walking around and taking in the vibes! good fish & chips too! and the first time i had a deep fried mars bar was in st. andrews. classic spot!!
Yeah, Rick...so that was prolly the coolest golf vlog in the CZcamss. And it didn't even feature much golf! Incredible content...thx man!
I absolutely love seeing a professional golfer still smitten and giddy over a golf course!
Great video Rick. I visited St. Andrews for the first time last year and was there little over 24 hours. It’s such a magical place, hopefully I’ll get back there sometime soon
That was an amazing 2 putt. I forgot the hole. You went into the grass back on to the green wow!
Fantastic, you didn’t stop smiling the whole way through….priceless!
Loved everything about my visit to Scotland/St-Andrews. Brings back amazing memories.. I'm definitely going again.. Can't imagine how crazy it would be during the Open!
Great video Rick..Thanks for sharing it with us all.....
Wow! That must of been an incredible experience for you…
Very enjoyable to watch you having such a great time… thank you.. 👍
I LOVE THIS EPISODE, RICK! I NOW HAVE TO GO PAY A VISIT.
That was the coolest sand structure. I've already told you, but congrats on the 2 million subs and the many videos we all enjoy!
Love these vlog style videos would love to see more of them
the reverse van was awesome lol rewind!
Living the dream!!! Enjoy it all 😀
Old Fashioned, good lads, best drink and priceless location! Thanks for the trip!
Just loved this video not just for the golf but all the content.Well done Rick.👍
This is just such a lovely video, it makes me want to go there.
This had a Stacked Golf feel to it, with Rick buying used clubs!!!
Why was that an emotional video 🙈🙈🤣🤣👍👍 brilliant
I just like your voice lol idk why just works well with your videos and gives me confidence as a beginner
Definitely a bucket list spot. Been dreaming of playing there ever since I was a kid.
Rick that was beautiful, as a Scotsman and golfer i was so jealous , a brilliant vlog mate , love your channel always interesting and enjoyable
I too love golf history.
That trip must of been awesome!!! 24 hours at ST. Andrews is not enough time to take in all that awesomeness!!!
Awesome video Rick! Super happy for you to enjoy that special 24 hours and an even more special place. Thanks for bringing it back here to the USA. Cheers!
I've been lucky enough to play the Old Course on two occasions. And dang straights I have a picture of myself on the Swilcan bridge. For a golf fan, it truly is a magical place.
A dream come true..No more can be said!
These little fairway matts are ridiculous 😹
Love it Rick. The only way it would have been any more magical would have been if you had a Unicorn on the bag. Cheers to you sir.
Yes, for sure, that'd outdo my wedding day by a factor of ... well ... is there a number that big?!? Great stuff :)
Keep up the great content Rick. I literally think ive watched every video of yours over the last 8 ish years
Old Fashioned. Best drink. Respect.
Most magical place on earth!
There's something about St Andrews that transcends anything else. Going up for the first 2 practice days and can't wait to enjoy the St Andrews experience. Great video
Honestly can't wait for the Open, been playing for just under a year so will be my first experience of it!
That was amazing!!! What a breathtaking town and golf course! Thanks for sharing it!
Loved this!! I have tickets to the Open. Your video made the butterflies turn in my stomach.
Is it wrong that if I visited I may be most excited about eating breakfast at the Swilcan Loft? What a way to start the day.
I have improved greatly by learning from your content
That view from Swilcan Loft is incredible ⛳
Why you have to love Rick Shiels, he is humble, genuine, self deprecating humor, and he has a ball retriever in his bag... 🤣🤣🤣🤣
He is humble, but the retriever lies there at the barn for every player. It's the only time you need on the course 🙏😉
@@christopherhi5247 Thanks for the info. 👍Kinda weird that St. A would have that around, a bit like promoting slow play...🤔
2 mil and you deserve every single one of em. Cheers mate!
What a trip mate. Take me!
…as a bartender for 25 yrs,I’m so happy to see an Old Fashioned with NO CHERRY 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🥃
Look at you, RICK! happy - smiling all days ...just like a little kid found a candy store.
Congrats on 2 millions!!
Really want to see more break 75s this made me remember how good they were
Played the old course last August with no wind and a cloudless sky it lived up to expectations
2,ooo,ooo subscribers!!! What a way to celebrate this milestone
Love the video Rick! The quality is unmatched and I look forward to more vids from St. Andrews
Wow, what an awesome experience. Thanks for sharing Rick.
Love it Rick! You absolutely make this a must have trip for any golfer! Can't wait to be there someday and thanks for showing us the ropes!
Such a special place. Arrived back home yesterday from St. Andrews. Maybe next time I’ll get to golf there 🏌️
3:45 that putt 😂😂😂
Can’t wait and see it in person when the open is on always a place I have wanted to go
What a great video! I'm envious! Well done, interesting, and fun. Thanks, Rick!
You need to play at the Himalayas putting green! Next to the 2nd tee, absolutely amazing
I played last Wed, Brings back Goosebumps :D
Love your channel. You might have the best combover in the world
Awesome content as usual.
I now realize the problem with my golf game is a complete lack of cheekiness.
We do need to see those extra beers. You should start a pub crawl followed by early tee time show kinda like Insomniac or 3 Sheets with Zane Lamprey
