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

Watching Rick while talking a poo after school. Life couldn’t be any better! Love you man ❤️

[jaylisted]

Watching you out on the course, giving all of us honest reviews again makes me feel like things are starting to get back to normality. So glad you're back at it Rick!!

I played 27 holes with this ball last weekend and I'll say that if found my new ball. I love the feel and it really shows a miss hit with the putter. Also it's cool to see the spin coming out of the bunker. I'll be replacing the tp5x with this for sure.

Rick thanks for all the tips I have finally managed to score in the 80s thanks to you

[lewwilliams]

i had my first round with this ball yesturday and i loved it! I shot my lowest ever score at my club, breaking the 80 barrier for the first time. Im not sure hom much the line helped, but it feels as good as a TP5 to me. My one criticism would be the colouring can be camouflage if you find some slightly longer stuff, but i wouldnt be suprised if some other colour variations were already in the pipeline.

I tried one last week, with the orange stripe, mate gave me one. I had no issues with the stripe on the fairway, found it easy enough in the rough as well. But I really liked the feel of it. Felt great of all the clubs and felt great putting it. The line was great on the tee and lining up putts. So good I bought a dozen the next day.

I started golfing last year because I knew my dad loved golfing with me, and now its my favorite! We went golfing at least 4-5 times a week and your videos have helped me improve so much over the course that one year, every time i go out i play better and it makes my dad proud. Thank you! your videos have directly impacted my life and relationship with my father. Im truly thankful.

[norabaldi]

Played with this last week and I definitely have fallen in love with this ball. Haven't used a better ball for immediate feedback on the greens.

5 months of the year in Ireland and England November to March most if not all parkland courses are lift clean and place. So you could essentially use it as a winter ball and help improve and align your set up for those winter months.

I played the ball last Sunday for a full round. Off the tee and open fairway, the stripe was weird at first. After a couple holes, it was no longer a distraction. I bought it for lining up my putts and that is where it shined! It really helped me all around the greens. $40 a dozen and it's my new ball.

I've been playing the Tour Response for months. It's a great ball for the money but when I use a Pro-V1, I have longer drives and a slightly better score. Could be coincidental that I am just playing better that day, but thought I would share. You can't go wrong with the Tour Response.

[outdoorse]

Recently played this ball with the blue 🔵 stripe and liked this color much better then the lime green. Performance was terrific with nice feel. Also super easy to find compared to my buddies golf balls.

[oboecoe]

I bought a dozen of these over the weekend and played with them on Sunday. My score didn't improve dramatically with these balls, but I felt SO MUCH MORE confident putting. Something about that line and knowing that you've hit a perfect putt when it doesn't wobble is so satisfying and confidence boosting. I didn't notice too much of a distraction when the line was "off" on my fairway shots either. The TaylorMade Tour Responses have been a favorite of mine the last couple years, so this is just another feather in its cap when it comes to choosing a ball.

[brianf]

I used to use a line on my ball and just like you said I would either line it up wrong on the green or it would distract me if it wasn’t aiming at the hole on the fairway. Played so much better with a solid color ball. Love the vids man keep it up

[wadepatton]

I never use ball markings to line up putts, but I do love watching the spin on half/half colored balls and others with bold markings. Only going to use markings for line up on the tee if my target is at a big angle to the tee box.
AS many have noted, lining things up can slow things down-especially when you change your mind about the line after your initial "setting". That's why I quit and simply play the ball. I found myself standing over putts where the line had changed in my mind making the initial line-up incorrect. Now it's always a round ball and the target and stroke are all I have to focus on.

Just bought three dozen of these because they test out with good quality of production numbers.

[cameronbennefield]

I played 18 with this ball last weekend. It feels amazing. Great performance. However, I think they need to keep an eye on quality control. I had several balls with what I assume was urethane drip. Not sure how greatly it would effect, but the ones that had it, had 5 to 6 drops square in the middle of dimples.

[huskerchris]

Rick, thank you for another great video. I have put a homemade stripe on mine for years. On the green and tee box it helps a ton because I swing right handed bit have a left dominant eye. So my perspective and line up could be off without the aid. On the fairway it was at first a little uncomfortable but over time morphed into a benefit because I concentrate on different aspects of the shot instead of just the ball.
Thanks again

[roberttaylor]

Great video Rick. I haven't tried the stripe yet but found one in the rough yesterday so will try next time. Although I play tp5 normally so should be very similar in terms of feel and spin.

[usarmyboy]

Ive had the ball for over a week and i love it. Its definitely helped me out on the putting green. I really like the feel of the putter. also feels good of the woods, driver and irons.

[jakelong]

I like the decorative golf balls. I don’t know if it makes me any better but I do know that no one ‘accidentally’ takes my ball when I spray it all over the place since I started using them!
