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. - Sport
What he’s not telling us is that he’s wanted to do this for awhile and the virus was the perfect excuse to convince his wife 😂
Don’t need a garage or an office looking at this...........
The only thing the virus is good for
GILRODAH czcams.com/video/saGTQBqNIcA/video.html
Haha we all know this is true 😂
@e james Wtf mate? You think this is a platform for your xenophobia and hatred?
As it's in your garage, you could call it "the drive-in range".
ha got it !
Nice
GET.
OUT.
I hate you for forcing me to laugh at that.
I’m dying at this at 4am 😂😂
When you realize that even the stack of Pro V1's are out of your budget.
i finally looked into them the other day. i swear it would cost me more in balls during a round than the round itself.
bruh I get tons of free balls sneaking into courses with rivers
Just buy a flight. Hit it straight and keep it on the fairway, they last a long time.
As I work at a golf course whenever members leave their balls they go in a bin that we use for free golf balls. People have left Pro V1s many times 😁
@@blakedabloke6456 I played golf for the first time like a month ago with my friend, we buy secondhand golf balls for 10 cents each from workers who pick them up... I've hit quite a few of them not knowing their value, I'll keep them next time for when I get better because they all go flying out of bounds anyways atm lmao
Excellent job you've done there Rick and once again an excellent video. I'm sure there's a lot of us at home right now wishing we had this. Thanks for the videos and stay safe too.
"THE BUNKER" is the perfect name if ya ask me mate!
Genius !
"The Bunker"
So appropriate for Golf in Lockdown.
@@DexxBlue 1st name that came to mind + figured its fitting given the current circumstances.
Think we all feel like we're down in "The BUNKER"! LOL
@Son of Dad HAHA😆😆 took me a second but once I said it aloud, it was like RS was in my livingroom!
"Absolutely CA-RUSHED"
Fantastic Rick 👌, love watching your videos. This is really awesome... Looking forward to watching them.
I love how transparent he is with prices clearly he understands how expensive of a sport golf can be
Doubleneck12 you mean Shiels not shields
This is a luxury. He has many videos on his channel explaining how you can play golf for cheap or on a budget. Thankfully I at least have a golf net I can hit into, and a yard to chip in.
Golf is so overpriced. This simulator setup should be $300-400 max. Look at the stuff an Xbox or PS4 can do for that. This can only do 1 thing. Drivers made in China costing $300+ is absurd. Muira stuff, now that I can understand but big box stuff. No way. All Chinese made.
@@DCopp So then why don't you get into the business of selling this stuff? Seems like you could be a millionaire in no time with the margins you imagine, no?
@@jhonnyspeed4513 I'm not an engineer, sorry
This is incredible!! What would I give to have a set up like this!! Keep the videos coming Rick, absolutely love the channel and is one of a few things keeping me sane during this difficult time!! Hope you’re keeping well, keep up the great work pal 👍🏻
Great video ...been following you for years, but this is so "real" ... a real man, thx!! Stay safe
I could potentially fit this in my garden, if I had enough money, a Garden, my own house, and didn’t still live with my parents....
LMAO!!!!
So close
“The Shiels Shack,” “The 19th hole,” or “Hackers Lounge”
Taede Roersma Shiels Shack would be nice
Shiels Shack is 🔥
I was literally about to comment the shiels shack and this was the top comment I saw 😂😂
I was thinking Shiels Shed or Shielshed
another vote for the "Shiels Shack"
Way to go Rick! I built a home theatre single handed and I can relate. Really impressed with your commitment and as a new golfer glad I found your channel. Fascinating and very interesting content. Keep it up.
Love to see you still going out of your way to make videos in times like these!!!🔥
love ya rick you've given me so much info on the latest clubs and what clubs work best for each player
“The Shiels Shack” “The Halfway House”
“The Grind Simulator” “The Golf Fix”
Those are my favorites
Rick! That is awesome 👍👍 It turned out really really good, I'm soooo jealous. What a setup!! Love your work, keep it up & yes! you too stay safe. 👍⛳
Rick , your stuff is great. Really like the channel and the content. Keep up the great work!!! Cant wait to see your new stuff
Hey Rick, tough times without having golf in the US and I was wondering if you could do a golf review show for a launch monitor that you trust so the people stuck at home can improve their game and maybe invest in one of those. I've been looking at the Swing Caddie SC300 and it looks more accurate. I just want to know what you think of it, Thanks for all the great content and the simulator is beautiful.
Hi Sam...I don't think the swing caddie would be good for indoors...I have the GarminG80 and it also may not be good for indoors unless your hitting short irons..I'm hitting into a net that's 5 ft away and anything over an 8 iron is way off...On Quad my 4 iron carry is 190/200 but on the Garmin in the garage it's barely 160 carry...so maybe the distance from the net is not far enough...When I took the garmin to my local hitting bay it worked alot better.. numbers being about 3 to 5 yds off( sometimes spot on)...I've never tried the swing caddie but I think both units would be good at a range...Hopefully Rick will do a review for us stuck in the garage
Glen Brige I’m going through some golf withdrawals hoping for some quarantine golf tips 🙏
I have a Garmin G80 and I use it in my backyard, swinging to a net and I have found to be quite accurate.
I've heard absolutely TRAGIC things only abut the SC300
@@sticklp6405 My SC300 has been working perfectly for the last 6 months, what tragic things have you heard?
I'm old enough to remember when cars went in garages. Ah, the good old days. I don't have a GC Quad, but I have a net, mat and a PRGR. After rolling the vehicles out, it takes me about 1/2 hour to set it all up. Can't hit the driver because of ceiling height, but 3W and below clears. I'm looking forward to your ideas about indoor practice. Thank you Rick. BTW, as per Pete Swanson's post I like the "Lab" as a name for your enterprise.
in lockdown here in the US. I have been watching all your videos. Really got my interest back into golf (haven't been playing much the last couple years). Now watching this, I think this is my favorite video watching the completion of the home simulator!
Rick, watching your videos just makes me smile. I enjoy your style very much. Thanks for all of the great content.
If this was in my garage I would be living in there.
Can’t believe I missed this when you put it out four months ago. This is incredible and makes me want to build one for myself
Congratulations on 1M subscribers! You have really helped my golf game and I appreciate it! Can’t wait to watch and play some golf again!
Love the details: ball pyramid, dusting the photo. Always good to check in with Rick. Nice to see him and Guy at the Open. What a finish!
Nobody
Rick: Hand mows artificial turf
I know it’s a year late, but I’ve just recently been a viewer. Until I was 50, I’d played a dozen games at most. A friend has gotten me interested in the sport where I am ready to dedicate some effort to it for fun and your channel has proven helpful and wildly entertaining, which helps me stay engaged. This is fantastic!!! Thanks to you, I’ve been improving slowly, but more than anything, staying interested in the game. Stay safe, and keep up the content, it makes a difference!! Cheers!
The GAREDGE
This is so awesome Rick. Can't wait to get ours up! Cheers.
Awesome video, Rick. Love all your videos but this is one of the best.
Please do a video called: “What’s in the Beer Fridge?”
Impressive set up and more impressive Beer Fridge!
There is only one name for it: “The Caddy Shack”
Came here to say this! Show us the fridge man!
I have the perfect name. “The Rick Shiels Center for Golfers Who Can’t Golf Good”. Derek Zoolander would be proud of that name.
Lee Magann big fan of that
How are they going to golf if they can’t fit in the building !!!
And want to learn tondo other stuff good too
@@OverParSteve this facility needs to be....
Nice
Loved seeing your little girls (I have three that are all grown up), it gives us a different perspective inside the life of a CZcams golf legend. Great video, Rick! I just bought a net and Swing Caddie2 to set up in the garage after re-watching your review of it vs. GC quad. Hopefully, the courses will be open back here in the U.S. soon and life can get back to a little bit more normal, although normal is probably a long ways away. In the meantime, thank you for continuing to keep us entertained.
Thanks for this Rick! Keep'em coming.
"The Lab" would be a good name. Your testing all of the time and sometimes it can get crazy.
great name
MCGA: “Man Cave Golf Academy”. Throw in a thread mill to simulate walking down the fairway and get a cardio workout at the same time 👍
A " THREAD " Mill ?"
David Thompson lol
Lol
Love to see it!)
Specially now when we’ve seen the HIT studio!)
Great to come back to this and see that you're now at 1.9m subscribers....woohoo not far off the 2M!!!
The “Inner Shank-tum” 😂 Cheers, Rick!
Call it “The Club”
Looks amazing and now gives me inspiration to do one at my place👍🏼
Great vlog. Omg I busted out laughing out loud with the music while you were cutting the turf. 😂😂😂😂😂
I just subscribed to your channel, and as I have been going through and watching every video you have ever recorded I came across this one. When you showed your 100k subscriber plaque I checked to see how many you have currently. 1.9 MILLION! So happy for you Rick. You bring so much value to the golf community, and it’s blowing up because of people like you. Congratulations on all your success, and thank you for all that you do.
P.S. this room is an absolute dream and I am extremely jealous!
I have a net return pro and a 5x5 real feel mat already at home in the living room., its the GC2/GCQuad I don't have and absolutely WISH I had.
"The Birdie Barn, Eagles nest, Strokers stadium. I could go on, let me know if you need more! Congrats on the build out
The "Eagles Nest" is a bit too Third Reichish for my tastes, but I do like the "Birdie Barn" or "COVID Corral" or "COVID19thHole".
Looks awesome, Rick. Congrats, an excellent conversion!
Great work Rick!! Looks like all the hard work has paid off, and I would call it "Rick's-N-Mortar Golf"
3:34 the way that synced with the beats was oddly satisfying.
Immediately liked as soon as I heard you say “garage”
Niiiiiiiiice! Good job Rick. Must be nice. Stay healthy.
Looks awesome!.. pretty tight space but made it work. I like how you gave yourself a bit of extra room on top.
Great Job Rick! I have something similar using the Skytrack system and a hitting net/55" TV Monitor. Do you have any tips on how we can best develop practice routines for an indoor setups like this? Love the Channel, Great job!
"All my Nike hats" literally only ever wears the black one😂😂
Great Vid man keep it up
Nice one Rick. Best youtube golf channel ! Looking forward to seeing the vids from there.
You are absolutely The most resourceful wonderful golf instructor I have seen.
I would spend endless amounts of hours doing laundry in this garage.
Jackson Roper yeah then forget to put the clothes in the dryer
"Hey Rick, how's the lockdown going?"
*While vacuuming the grass*
"Pretty good, Bob. How's about you?"
Keep the videos coming Rick. I coach high school golf and use some of the tips with the kids!!!
Stay safe. Thanks for the videos
This is everything I want when I retire! Lol
Call it “Shiel’s sanity shelter” 😂
Who doesn't want to rock the Rick Shiels headcover 🔥🔥
Mark crossfield
@@malone77 Rick should send him a signed headcover
Awesome Video Rick!!
Rick well done thank you for keeping us going I'm in Michigan USA no golf I agree with it but I miss getting out,so thank you
Video idea : using the Dart board, each section of the Dart board relates to a club (20=driver, 7=7 iron etc). You have to play a course only using ur Dart skills to select what club u are taking on each shot 👍
No
I've thought about doing a "budget" version with a cheap launch monitor and just some old sheets or something. It'd be better than nothing here during the winters of small town Minnesota. At least you wouldn't have to start every season like someone whose never played golf before again because you've had that much time off lol!
Rick I love watching your channel! Your golf simulator is fn amazing. love it
Emotional start to the video, shows how much you care about your viewers and why you have so many viewers, keep up the great videos mate, would love a man cave like that......"Golf Garage"
The Rickademy, absolutely class set up, my wife’s gonna kill me when I raid the savings account, but this video is evidence that I had no choice 🤣
Conspiracy theory: Rick unleashed Coronavirus as an excuse to build the home simulator after years of the wife saying "no way!".
Zachary Milos I think he needed an excuse
I like social distancing but my wife kept trying to get back in the house.
Your enthusiasm for golf is contagious. I've never played so much in my life.
Love it, Rick! Well done!!!
Was just practicing at home and thought, let's see if Rick uploaded anything. Then found this
Great Idea Rick, loved it like all your other videos. Keep them coming cause we got nothing to do :)
“How did you get through self isolation?” “Are you mad? I watched golf videos all day” should have built myself a simulator....
Top Notch. This was inspiring. Thank You
Absolutely love it
Also, Maybe this is the start of the Shiels Golf Academy, so that could be me the name or SGA1 for the 1st bay :)
"Hopefully doesn't last too long" Oh poor young Ricky, none us knew what was coming.
1 year later here we are hahahhaha
Yes
This is awesome, bit of a n
Man cave, I love what you showed!!! Something to work towards for myself!
Just great videos. Thanks Rick.
"Shiels Laundromat" gotta keep it low key
“Just enough room”!! That’s a mansion compared to mine! 😂
Rick, thanks so much for giving us some "live sports" to watch while we are stuck indoors!!
Almost at 1m!! Can't wait. Love your channel Rick!
‘The Covid-19th Hole’ - shouldn’t joke about it - great setup Rick!
Ok snowflake
Instead of a simulator, I just bring my bag into my backyard and hit stick and wood chips over my neighbors fence.
Unreal! Love the set up, would kill for this at home
Great video Rick!
I don’t know if it was intentional but the screen size changed in beat with the music 3:15
“Golfage”, kinda a mix of golf and garage, but also a cool name when you split it up, golf age.
Love it mate , them spot lights and sockets on the ceiling came in handy 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😉
Green with envy.......fantastic setup.
Great setup!
How much headroom do you have? Whats the measurement from floor to ceiling?
Cheers
Can’t imagine getting that rick shiels headcover, there’s 2 in the world. Pls rick !!!!
Hey Rick. I live in Southern California.. LA area, and really bummed that I am stuck indoors. Your videos are keeping me entertained, and somewhat sane! Thanks Dude.
Time to hook up a fan with some hand me downs! Keep the good stuff coming.
"Isolation Station" - looks great!
Congrats on 800k! Well deserved mate!
Soo... That headcover on insta would look insane in my bag haha!
Watching the vid now 👌👌
*edit*
How many people was refreshing his page waiting for the vid to drop 😂😂
Awesome Rick!
Just a great vid rick, well done and stay safe
I wish I could do the same at home D:
Call it : "St. Garage's, the new course"
As we are being attacked with virus, we retreat to the safety of the bunker..
"the bunker".
Or "the golf cage".
That is just so precise and entertaining
Solid setup. Great work Rick!
