Hi I’m Rick Shiels, welcome to my channel! This YouTube channel is designed to help you play better golf, also to help you enjoy your golf more!

I specialise in golf equipment reviews, golf instruction & I play against some of the best golfers in the world!

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!

Minus the back 9 I think this was some of Rick’s best golf I’ve seen him play in a minute

[mikewrld]

I was walking on the beach just to the right of the tee and I heard “right, let’s go” in the unmistakable accent. Looked over and of course it was Rick, been looking forward to this video for a couple of weeks now

James Robinson is such a class act. I love him in every video

[mikehamfelt]

James needs to grow his own channel. Such a class guy and love hearing him talk through his shots.

What a cracking day out with the boys! The course is really amazing apart from the 11th 🤬😂 enjoy!

[ewenspencer]

The boys back together! 100% the best videos on this channel are the three of you playing. Was great to see Rick play so well. Didnt break 75 in qualifying but managed it at Troon!

[jameswise]

These are my favorite videos! When you didn’t post a break75 on Friday, I was so disappointed! Worth the wait!!

[mattcross]

James hit the nail on the head: ‘He’s talked a lot today though hasn’t he’ 😂 Guy ‘what about me’ Charnock! Just wind it in man!

[kurtschloesser]

"get your calculator" had me. Love seeing James on the channel. The chemistry with you three is great

[samdixon]

I grew up in Troon and played my golf on the Darley, Lochgreen, and Fullarton courses. We loved it when the open came to town. Imagine being 15 and having all your heroes suddenly playing golf in your hometown. Thanks for this amazing content. Brought back many great memories for me guys😊

[jaketyrrell]

How many Coffees has Guy had. Wow, Guy talk-a lot Charnock 😂😂😂

[Reffitt]

James is the kind of guy you can't help but like. He just truly seems like such a nice person, always genuine, and very supportive of anyone he plays golf with. His golf swing and that "tour caliber" sound at impact makes me so jealous! Haha. I'm jealous of all three of you guys for getting to play such incredible courses right before tour events, too! Rick has been playing some really good golf here lately, but he's got to find a way to get out of his own way! Play the shot in front of you and then forget about it, especially if it's a mistake.

[johngriffiths]

Rick's videos can sometimes have a surreal quality to them. I'm thinking in particular when the video scans towards him & Rick says, "coconut chips, for those wondering" whilst he looks straight into the camera for a couple of seconds. All done with a dead straight poker face. Made me chuckle.

[martinburrows]

Thought this was Rick Shields channel. All i heard was Guy

[wheelb]

Rick it is good to see your game rounding back to top form . Your struggles from few months past seem to be less . Great video, fairways and greens mate .

[benkasten]

I've been a teacher for 15+ years (history, not golf), and I can't get over how great the moment is on the 5th tee when Rick is pondering his options and James is like, "What are you going to do?" (26:30-26:53) It's such a simple intervention that totally accepts Rick's understandable indecision but gently empowers him to declare his intention and focus on it with confidence. The result doesn't even matter--it's a wonderful lesson in how to be a supportive playing partner and friend, and just one of the many reasons I love this channel. Great stuff, guys--thank you

[MadHeadPunk]

The chemistry between yourself, Guy and James is unmatched in YouTube Golf. Looking forward to this video more than The Open itself 😂🔥

[anguswayman]

Guy, dont give up again! You represent the average golfer when you play with Rick and you hold your own. My favorite vids are with you playing! James, always a pleasure to see you on the channel. Great round, great content as usual.

[zuluwarrior]

Well done guys….appreciate the preview of Troon ……I must say Rick, your mental approach has really improved.

[SeanRof]

Well done Guy, you did break 80. Just about in 13 holes
