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.
What did you enjoy most about this episode?
Thanks so much for the amazing comments about this years Break75 🙌
Honestly I'm just here for the drone footage, always amazing!
your my favourite content creator rick
yet again Rick visits my neck of the woods and doesn't let me know.
after watching the video i must add, you've more jam than Hartleys Rick. that 18th has to be the luckiest shot i have ever seen.
THE DOG!
The dog
Let’s just all agree that Rick has taken his videos and content to another level. Despite the popularity, still so humble and a joy to watch. Thank you Rick!.. And kudos to whoever made the break 75 in the sand
Humble, unlike another CZcams golfer.......
@@sandersson2813 haha which one?
Media empire behind him now
Be cool to know if the Break 75 in the sand was actually there... I think it was just added in Post production using CGI haha Otherwise, kudos to whoever spent that time making that. Probably quicker to do in video effects haha
@@ryansantiago941 Finch. If he was made of chocolate he would eat himself.
Fryer and Rick have their channels dialled. Finch's is just self indulgent crap.
Probably the best break75 you've made. Great course fly-overs, view of the undulating greens, describing the conditions & how you're approaching each shot. Really engaging. Thanks for taking us on the journey with you.
"I love golf, but I hate golf at the same time." That sums up the game perfectly. One of the best golf vids I've seen. Some of those drone shots gave me goose bumps. I love how you are playing as just a regular patron, with other people on the course, and average weather, and you show all your less than perfect shots. That crazy drive on 18 was icing on the cake! And can I really bring my dog with me when I play St. Andrews?
This brought a smile to my face having recently returned from St. Andrews, staying at the Old Course Hotel (room overlooked the 17th fairway), walking through the town, and playing golf! I miss it already.
i never thought i would be so happy for someone ive never met, but that crazy bounce eagle truly made me warm inside. how can you not love golf when things like this happens. eagle on the last on the most iconic hole in golf, with loads of of people watching to cap of the best round of a poor season so far. now it all turns in your favor. goosebumps!
Great to watch and so true regarding a VERY poor season so far... :-)
I could not agree more!!! Absolutely smiling from ear to ear watching that gentleman inform Rick about how his ball ended up so close to the hole for eagle!!! So awesome!!!! Way to hang in Rick and hole the putt for eagle!!! Class!!
I hit a bomb drive 330 down mid in a dinky pond drop hit 3 in cup from 60 my best save ever! Upstate ny
@@SJKLR99 always nice to see it drop. sometimes you impress yourself more than anyone
@@simond9678 I bought some new clubs once & on the very first outing, I chipped in from 80 yards plus for birdies with the pw, twice on the front 9. Sometimes I feel like, we give so much to golf & occasionally, golf gives so much back you. Those were magic moments I'll never forget.
Played with my dad and a couple of his mates today. 1st tee shot, 2 out of bounds. 2 pars all day and ended up picking up on 4 holes and losing about 6 balls. I was about to hit the whisky before switching the video on. 40 minutes later and that eagle on the last has got me booking up to go again tomorrow.
Great stuff as always guys.
Loved the way Rick talks to us, so honestly. Loved seeing him play well and smash 75. Loved seeing more of Guy and Guy’s golf too - boy can that lad put! 😉👍🏻
Great episode and loved the dog being taken around. I played at the New Zealand Club a few years ago and loads of members had their dogs with them. The on course water fountains even had built in water bowls and low level taps for the members dogs.
I used to walk my club in the spring with my boy Jack. His last round, at the age of 14 1/2. I had to carry him the last three holes. Miss you Capt Jack!
Did anyone else watch the entire video, watch that last drive on 18 and say to themselves "Did I miss the 'Crazy Eagle'"? 😂
Haha yes, I did too. What luck that was... and for it to bounce off the hotel and land about 6 feet away. Incredible luck on a pretty terrible shot, ended up being the best shot of the day lmao 🤣
I call BS on this. Someone rolled that up there. He has way to many cameras that would have caught that the whole way.
@@William.H Yea I'm not really convinced at all that it wasn't just placed there. This would be super easy to stage and get a few people to go along with.
@@derpderpin1568 people sometimes throw your ball back in play, when I went I threw a guys back onto the edge of the fairway from out of bounds. He probably had no idea how it was on the fairway
Look up luckiest shots in pro golf...crazy shit like that can and does happen sometimes...
"That was a mighty drive, man," says the Man Who's Seen Them All. "The longest drive I'll see all day."
Rick, you've impressed the unimpressible. What a game. What a course.
he was the first group out so at 18 that’s by default the longest drive of the day haha
yeah they're the first guys playing on the course though lol they started at 6am, so it's maybe the second or third drive he's seen all day up to that point lol. But nevertheless, the luck was unreal
@@Q-Bits8 To be fair, he said it was 6 when they left for the course, so I'm guessing they teed off around 7.
@@benpollock4812 LOL. I hadn't thought of that.
@@benpollock4812 He said the longest drive he'll see all day, implying that nobody will most likely hit a longer drive for the remainder of the day.
Rick, I doubt you'll see this but as someone who once played a lot and completely lost interest in the game, in some way your videos have rekindled my desire to get back out and play again. You're a great ambassador for the game, and you can tell that you're a genuinely kind person when the cameras are off. Congratulations on the eagle and many successes down the road. Perhaps one day you'll even play in an Open... If you do you'll definitely have this Yank rooting for you.... Blessings to you and your crew.
Same here, been out for like 15-16 years and found my way back throu his vids and even gotten so much better thanks to all his swingvideos and so on, so thank you
He actually had played in opens before he's mentioned it in his other videos. Not an invitational or anything though.
I keep trying to get into it...I like the idea of being out in the middle of nowhere....but can I heckers like hit a golf ball it's so hard to even make contact lol
Rick, I am glad you finally decided to let us know your Partner's score. I always thought that was the missing part of these episodes. I think having it on the left top corner and yours on the right top would be splendid. Yes, they arent the main character in the episodes, but they are part of it and playing the beautiful game alongside. The game is always a competition whether for fun or money. As a viewer I would love to also see your partner's 18 holes journey, not necessarily the shots (you show the right amount) but the score.
I found myself audibly cheering for both Rick and Guy on every shot, more than when I watch a PGA event! Just the humble style and the reverence from them playing the Old Course… gotta love it. Well done!
Very cool. I was fortunate enough to play The Old Course in 2006. I shot 92, which for me was a rewarding score. My best memory from that day comes on the 18th hole as well. I hit a nice drive just short of the crosswalk, then hit a 9-iron to 4 feet. The folks gathered behind the stone bridge applauded me as I walked up to the green. I felt like a rock star. Then, when I missed the birdie putt and the crowd moaned, I felt like a roadie. :)
The town, the people, and the course are indeed very special.
There's a reason for the quote "I'd rather be lucky than good" haha. Sometimes luck gives you opportunities that talent could never. Been loving the Break 75 series.
I love the relaxed nature of this episode , the golf looked after its self. How could you not be inspired with the 150th grandstands in full view. Someone definitely threw that ball on the green on 18 .....lol
Surely 😂
Someone had to have thrown that, or it was the wildest series of bounces ever. Off the hotel, then off the open shop, and then to the green.
Either way, it counts.
That’s what I thought. That is a decent uphill slope on 18. But as mentioned before, it counts.
@@sethcourtney468 I wish someone would follow me round on the course and throw my ball next to the pin 😂
The one thing that makes me think maybe it wasn't thrown on the green - two separate people a long way apart from each other tell Rick the same story. There were a lot of people watching as well, feel like someone might have volunteered the real story.
Love the guy waking round with his dog on his bag. The new type of Caddy?😂
Golf is always best with a spaniel accompanying you!!
Everyone is welcome at the Old Course, very common for people to take there dogs
My friend trained his dog to find golf balls. Surprisingly, "finding" was an easy part, it took more time to teach him NOT to fetch...
Now this beast just stands over the ball and waits for the owner.
BTW, I wonder if he is breaking some rules using such a caddy (as caddies are alowed to help searching for balls).
Emotional support animal on a golf course, brilliant!
@@rybry5080 that's awesome...
a 44 minute video and I was hooked from minute 1 . wow what a stunning dedication to the old course with our favourite CZcamsr taking us for a round . thoroughly enjoyed this , thank you
Got to be one of my favourite videos so far! Really enjoying the break75 series. Slightly humbling as an average golfer struggling at the minute to see you also have some less desirable rounds. But equally reassuring to see you start to play well! By the way the result on 18 was perplexing, yet phenomenal!
Been looking forward to this one. Kept asking myself "where is he gonna make the eagle, where is he gonna make the eagle?" Amazing round with an epic finish, loved every minute of it! It's also nice to see some of Guy's shots when he plays with you. What a series!
Some intro that 👏
My other favorite golf channel! We need another Shiels/Finch showdown😄
Good to see the two best golf CZcams creators complimenting each other ..class from a class guy Pete 👍
Need a Pete vs Rick match on the old course!!
This could be my favorite episode of "Break 75" to date! What an incredible EAGLE! Nicely done! Can't wait for the next episode!
Really enjoyed this video. I've never been there so it was great seeing the course up close to get a feel for what the pros will be up against in a couple weeks. And Rick with the "bounce" of a lifetime on 18!
I love the longer length videos for this series. Keep up the amazing work.
Really enjoyed this and really enjoy Guy being more involved! such a great round! i think everyone can relate that one or two holes that keeps your round from being so great. Keep it up!
This quality in this video was unreal, drone footage before and during the hole was class the editing and the shot position markers etc are fantastic loved that
I've always thought Guy is a super likeable dude and he's an absolute natural on the podcast and adds a lot of value to it
Love the series, that eagle was insane. I know it's about you trying to break 75, but it was nice to see more shots and hear the score of your partner more often in this one. I'm always interested in how they're doing too, whoever it may be. Would just say, I think the overlay didn't look that great. The hole info didn't properly look like it was of the same scheme as the player-shot info, which also looked too 'blocky'. Might try design and post one on twitter based on your logo colour scheme. But anyway, great vid.
This one is a rush job, it’s open themed, he usually has the normal red one
If Rick had Guy's putting, he'd have been at least -5! Great video, can't wait for the 150th open!
We need to see Rick and Guy play a scramble to see how low they can go
I'm new to golf and only have a few games under my belt, but Rick Shiels has become my favorite golfer to watch! I always look forward to these videos and every time I watch them, it always makes me want to go play a round and improve my game! Thank you for such amazing videos and for giving me the motivation to keep playing this amazing game!
Takes me right back to August 15, 2019 when I played the Old Course with my son in the foursome in front of mine. We slept in the parking lot overnight and were 13th and 14th in line. We got on in following foursomes. Rick you seemed more relaxed today and much less hard on yourself on the course. A joy to watch!
Love having Guy involved this season. Dude can play!! Amazing to see the course with the grandstands, can only imagine playing it. Keep up the content boys!
Couldn't disagree more, dude is a distraction and massively unentertaining
@@davexilly no need for that
@@harrypressdee9868 except that Dave is right.
in 2019, i got to walk the course on a sunday and chat with a guy who was plotting the 16th green for a tournament the following week.
How is the shot on the 18th not on SportsCenter top 10?!?! That's one of the craziest bounces you'll ever see in a Golf round. So happy Rick got that on camera
Probably because you don't actually see what happens
Didn’t get it on camera though did they?
What does Rick do for a living?
Plays golf and records it for the world to see. Got to love the free market. Keep living the dream Rick. All jokes aside, this CZcams channel has taken me from a bellow average golfer to someone that can get around the course without crying. Good work, Rick.
This was an outstanding video. I look forward to each of these as it's a proper challenge, that could go either way. And it's fun, relaxed and super quality. Thanks Rick, Guy and co.
This is literally the greatest, most entertaining golf series on CZcams! Great video Rick! I found your channel at the start of the pandemic when I was working from home and had CZcams on in the background. Keep up the great videos!
OMG Rick Shiels! Nice round but the genious to hit your drive at the hotel was the best! LOL! Nice Eagle!!!
Absolutely excellent production and finishes with a hole that simply amazes all. Guy was also excellent entertainment and i think all golfers know and empathise with those 2 holes. But came back brilliantly. Rick as always talks us through, mainly with a smile on his face, and comes out even on The Old Course. Well done in every way.
Production quality is seriously impressive, great videos, with the CZcams ads before the main video almost felt like I was at a film premiere 🍿
Congrats on the 🦅
What an ending, well played Rick and Guy thoroughly enjoyed the Break 75
@RickShiels best content creator on CZcams at the moment. Honestly the quality of your videos is amazing, and you’re such an awesome person to watch.
Kept teasing us with all those birdie opportunities on the first 9 and made us all love golf for what it is the second 9.
Amazing, lucky eagle on the 18th at St. Andrews. You will remember that forever. And having it on video is even better.
All that carrying on and you get the rub of the green of a lifetime ---with half a grandstand of witnesses. I'll be hearing no more bleating about bad bounces and such. One of your best vlogs.
I love it!!!
Easily THE BEST Break 75 video ever! The best venue (Old course with the stands), along with the most epic ending -- an eagle for even par at the historic 18th green and it being the first eagle for Rick in the series. What an episode!
Great round of golf from both of you, I was shouting at the computer watching Guy with the two out of bounds, and well as for the last what a result and a lucky but great eagle well done, let's see how many of the open player adopt your 18th tee shot, I enjoy watching all your video's but this was special.
Shout out to that chill sweetie-pie doggy just going for a round a golf with its best mate!
Love the guy casually playing the old course with his dog attached to his bag. Class! Some drive on the last
That's an excellent intro to show people who possibly could never make it how it feels to walk round the corner and see one of the best holes in golf. 👏
He’s back on the old course!!! The grandstands look insane btw!!!!
I just came back from my first ever trip to Scotland a few days ago. Was lucky enough to stop in St. Andrews near the end of the trip. Such a surreal experience walking through town and around the course, especially with the setup for the Open. Something I won't ever forget. Unfortunately, the only put I hit there was on the rooftop bar of 18 overlooking the course with a drink in my hand.
Great job on the round, Rick! Im just afraid you might have used up your luck for the year with that bounce on 18. But what a fantastic time to get some luck.
Best I’ve ever seen Guy play, he was lights out. I’m just an average golfer these days and never been a scratch guy…but I’ve had those rounds where it all seems to come together for you but a few bad holes make you want to snap your clubs. 😂
And that has to be one of the wildest eagles I’ve ever seen. Great video, I smiled the whole time. Glad you guys are enjoying life.
"I love golf and I hate golf at the same time." Guy, we've all been there, and we keep coming back. Rick, amazing round, the confidence is back and I hope you continue that way.
That quote perfectly sums up this game
We’re lucky Rick hasn’t been picked up by a streaming subscription service yet. Love these videos! Cheers Guy, Rick, and production team! 🍻 keep it coming!!
Master Shiels,
WELL DONE ! Future show material.
1. Improve your putting starting line by using the 2:1 method. If you have a 4 meter putt, stand 8 meters behind the ball so you can see the starting line, breaks & dull spots. Use the plumb bob method if you need to. During this process wave your right feel hand to program the distance while looking at the hole.
2. How to keep your tempo during pressure. On your 8i 17th approach & both 18th drives, you were quick at the top & didn't finish your backswing. On your previous shows, I aways admire your completeness & tempo. The question is, how do you complete all 72 strokes perfectly when anticipation just increased ?
Well done! That eagle on the 18th is what to love about golf isn't it? You never know where the ball will end up, sometimes a perfect tee shot trickles into the smallest of bunkers and sometimes just sometimes it bounces of the hotel sign and end up a couple feet from the hole. I also wanna say that i really like Guy, what a humble person! I would love to see you play more with him in the future! Keep up the good work
That last hole was incredible! I love seeing the both of you play, excellent video, my favorite series and this might be my favorite episode of yours.
This may be one of my favorite videos you have done in a long time. Congrats on the amazing eagle.
Golf has always been in my life off and on, but you helped reinvigorate my love for it with videos like this. Thank you Rick!
The production work on this one is amazing, guys. The drone footage is especially great: really cool to see where your shots land and also the aerial of where you are in relation to the green. Great stuff.
Thanks again Rick. Love your videos. That putter has been rough on you this year. My favorite golf channel
My beer went in the air when you made that eagle! Best moment of the series so far, and you deserved that bit of luck.
Well done, I'm glad to see your game is getting better and you are having a bit of fun now.
Thanks for being a great golfing personality Rick, now if you will excuse me I am going to watch this video again :)
Strangely I've been binge watching your videos despite giving up the game that I loved several years ago. Love the editing and everything about it actually. The Eagle was hilarious. And that my friends is golf!!! Sometimes the golf gods giveth...other times not so much.
What a round. It's clear to see and hear how each shot matters. You represent the emotions of a lot of golfers and yet help us to stay realistic to what can happen to even the better players. Cheers Rick
Great vlog and eagle!!! Since visiting in 2019, I literally fell in love with St-Andrews. I'm looking forward to visiting it again!
As in every episode Rick, enjoy your humility and general down to earth attitude! Enjoy your videos thoroughly. Was there any damage to the building? Always worry about property damage, especially with my swings…
Keep up the good work!
I got into golf around the time of the 150th open, this video is one of my favourites online, think I've watched it at least 20 times.
One day hope to get a round at the old course, hopefully in the near future.
Rick's videos are what got me into golf, now down to an 8 handicap!
Hey mate. Just started playing golf 3 months ago due to popping my third ACL in rugby league. Loving golf loads and love getting home watching the channel mate. Keep it up.
My favorite break 75 this season by far! Absolute 💎
Been watching and subbed since around 40k subs, and to see the channel grow and the videos get even better, but yet Rick still stays such a class guy, so good to see, keep it up! ⛳️⛳️
“When it’s you’re day, it’s your day!” Love it and had me laughing so hard. Felt like I was the camera guy. Keep up the stuff Rick. Have been following you since clean shave days. Hahaha
I love Guy. Never flustered just the best guy to play a round with.
Marvelous round Rick 👏👏👏👏
Hi Rick love watching the shows! Would love to see guys scores as you go round also. I know it's the rick shiels YT but from a viewers perspective it's intrsisting to follow the score of another person rather than just you. Hope this doesn't come across as rude. Love the vids either way😊
This was awesome, the quality of the video, the course, the humble nature by Rick and guy. Also Rick deserved a lucky bounce on 18 after the last couple of break 75 attempts.
I have to say, as a fan of the channel (and the other one), and the podcast and the Break 75 series - It's an absolute pleasure seeing you play good golf and smiling as you wander round the course. After quite a lean trot recently, I'm super pleased for you :-)
Rick you got to get the midlock Evnroll
It's just the same ER2 he's had for a year or two now isn't it?
Just anything that doesn't sound as clakky as the one he's using now.
There is no way that ball naturally bounced and rolled to there on 18. I mean, there is a slight chance....and it may have happened. But my guess is that someone grabbed it and tossed it on to the green. Surprised Rick didn't as to see if someone helped him out
What an unliveable twist on the last.. I watch on Apple TV and I’ve taken the time to come to my phone and comment purely because of how enjoyable the video was. Great content as always, Rick
I once played with a guy who hit a tree 30 feet right of the green and bounced out and went in the hole for a hole in one! We take the bad bounces, so it's so nice to see golf pay you back once in a while, great round rick!!⛳⛳⛳⛳⛳⛳
Love watching these videos, Im a high handicapper and for the 1st time ever, I broke 100 two weeks in a row, I felt the same on my 18th as Rick did on the 18th at St Andrews. Keep up the good work Rick!!!
Well done Callum and keep up the good work yourself, it's little milestones that you set yourself that will improve your game.. My local driving range (MGA, Melbourne Golf Academy) has a big sign as you walk in saying "Are you practicing your mistakes?".... I came to the realisation I was (always played against a Slice).. So watched a few videos, Rick helped immensely and started to notice a vast improvement... Now, I hit a slight Draw (and can Fade a little)... But have dropped from 100+ to low 80s.. Now I realise Golf is 90% mental and 10% mental....
Glad to see you breaking out of the slump a bit and hitting better scores! Been rooting for you so hard man! Cheers on the eagle at 18! DONT LOSE THAT BALL!
Love these videos so much, they keep me more on the edge than the PGA tour lol. And that "crazy eagle" in capslock delivered. Oh man did it deliver. When I saw your drive at the last hole I was like "ah damn, how did I miss that crazy eagle", as there was no way it even crossed my mind that that drive would become it...
Great round Rick! The play off the side of The Open shop... well thought out! The golf gods toying with you at the very end... no pictures on a scorecard, but evidence on the golf ball!
Underated golf player. I don't think any amount of subs will make Rick change he seems genuine and real. Luv watching the videos.
I genuinely do hope Rick keep this ball and others that he’s played. His trophy case could be amazing.
Well deserved Rick you played absolutely marvelous throughout the whole round, so that bounce at the end was well deserved. Congrats
That last bounce was ridiculous! On another day Rick would be shooting a 6 for 76.
Just recently started playing again and I was STRUGGLING. Googled “how to fix my slice”, and stumbled upon Rick’s channel, and I have been devouring these videos. Thanks for making golf fun again
What a round, this was some great golf to watch! It’s amazing how a score can go up a little and then back down at the end to finish level. Happy to see Rick make an Eagle, very interesting how it came back onto the green! Great video!
Best brake 75 so far. Good to see guy involved after listening to him on many podcasts. Thanks for the tour of St Andrews. Love the last few holes with all the drama especially the 18th. Great to see the weather in providing there wet and cold here in Australia.
Great break 75. I'm going to watch this like 15 more times to get ready for the greatest tournament in golf. What amazes me is Rick's pace on his putting... unreal!
Huge thanks for that little time lapse walk through the town. Maybe closer than some of us will ever get!
Yep, I liked and appreciated that too
Your composure on the 18th tee box to not fire off a tirade of curse words was top class.
Love how Rick lets Guy have his day in the sun too. Nice one chaps.
The last drive on18th mate! That's golf and what an eagle. Love all your videos and thank you!😂
Another classic Shielsey. Would love to see a video of you and Guy playing a match, give him the appropriate strokes and lets see what the lad does under pressure
Lovely match lads! Rick... that bounce off the Open Hotel to give you a putt for Eagle. Wow! Thanks lads! Great fun to watch!
Well done Rick.......the golfing God's were with on 18:)
Great video, brilliant surprise at the end, I was glued to the screen over that last putt in front of the crowd, well done guys
Virtually every week of the year, we can watch the best players in the world play their very best golf. But we never get to see anyone having as much fun on a golf course as Rick does. Well done, mate, as always.
