Rick, you won’t believe what happened today. I am a beginner golfer and have only been playing about 6 months. My game is coming along thanks to your videos. One area I have really been struggling with is sand. It has literally been killing my game. I fear the sand because I am losing 3-4 strokes in every bunker I watched this video a few times last night. I went out this morning to play the back nine and I hit two shots during the round that landed in the sand. I was careful to follow the instructions you provided. I adjusted my grip to open the club face, I adjusted my stance slightly left, I set my feet wide and wiggled my feet in, I got low in my stance and I swung down and with a full follow through. Both shots cleared the sand, cleared the gap and landed within 10’ of the hole. Unbelievable! I was playing with much better golfers and they were struggling in the sand. They asked me where I learned to hit out of the sand. I gave you full credit. Thank you!!

I would like tips on how to get out of bunkers on a city course that are mostly mud and rocks. And haven’t been raked in months.

Just want to say your edit game is on point. Videos have been looking so good this year.

Will put this into practice tomorrow. I much prefer these brief factual videos.

These tips make so much sense, I’ve always been good at getting out but this will make me a lot better

I've been watching many of your videos over the past 6 months, and your tips have really helped improve my game. I appreciate you keeping the tips simple and on point. Thanks for all your great advice!

Great video, Rick! I searched for this after having an absolute nightmare on Tuesday when I got stuck in a bunker, and eventually gave up trying to get out! Two days later, I found 3 bunkers during my round, but managed to get out of each one first time. Thank you!

On it tomorrow..... thanks Rick! Great channel with easy to follow advice, best out there! Keep up the good work.

Struggled with a few deep green-side bunkers lately, and you're absolutely right, they can completely ruin a round! Really appreciate these tips Rick, can't wait to put them to use the next time I find myself in one! 👍

Another great tips video. It's quick, straight to point and very useful. Thank you

Pretty great vid, Rick - love the concise editing.

Love these short precise instructional videos. Sometimes I don’t have time to watch 15 minute videos. Well done

Great video Mr Shields! Very easy to understand and cluttered at all. One add’l add on that made as much or more difference to taking the terror out of my sand shots is to keep my weight left at address, back swing and thru the shot. Thanks for the great tip and explanation!

Excellent video very basic simple instructions easy to understand I can't wait to use his tips.

Excellent video. I’m working on bunker play at the moment and I’m positive this video will really help. Also, for what it’s worth I like the transparency of having your endorsements clear at the end of the video.

Great tips! I love the hinge and hold method from Phil, it really helps me!

I'm a complete novice ,and I must say your RU-vid tuition has inspired me no end . Fantastic easy to follow instruction that really works ! I was about to give up altogether ,but now I'm gaining confidence all the time . I've watched other videos but I find your approach the best !

Fab! Going to try this out & let you know. Been a handicap for me for a while thanks

Thanks for the tips. Bunker shots are one of my favourite shots. You have helped my game so much.

reinforced great tips for me, Rick. thanks again for helping all us golfers mate!

these vids have helped me sort my game so much. gone from 130 per round down in to the 90s and still improving.

Now, the golf question everyone needs help with: how to convince my wife that I need to spend 2 hours a day at the course practicing, then 4 hours twice a week playing.

Came across your videos by coincidence while searching golf tips on RU-vid. I find that they are very educational and very clear. They have helped me greatly in correcting several little problems. I will certainly continue to search for your videos to help me improve my game.

These short instructional vlogs are great - many thanks

As always brilliant video 👌🏽👌🏽👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Great videos. Short too the point and very helpful! Thank you for helping my game!

I love love love Rick’s easy to follow instructions! Earlier this season I started playing (probably my 50th round total, I’m almost 60) after joining a wonderful club. People say the course is brutally difficult. Round #1 was a 115. Yesterday I played round #15 of the year and would have shot an 80 was it not for the snowman on #17. But I will take an 84 and hopefully keep improving.

Nice tips Rick! I’ll try it out tomorrow!⛳️🔥⛳️

Makes me a lot more confident now when I’m in the bunkers. Awesome info. Thanks Rick!

Great tutorial it will help me for sure! I would love to see a video of how to hit your full shot wedges. This is what i often struggle with when I am somewhere around 100 yards to the pin and I feel scared of me missing the green from the fareway where it should be an easy shot.

I have 52°, 56°, 58° and 60° wedges, so the tip to use my 60° is one I've never thought of. Keen to try these tips. Top man.

Great video! Love how quick it was! Too the point! Thank you sir!

I love this style of video, quick and to the point. I’ll be working on this tomorrow at the local practice facility. I often take 2-3 strokes in a bunker, and have zero confidence out of the sand around the green.

I know this is an older video but I pulled it up as I was struggling in a practice bunker and immediately had results. Rick, you're the man!

Thanks Rick, this video was super helpful and when Jordan Spieth’s coach helped my team get better he mentioned a lot of the things you said. You’re a great golf coach and I hope you keep making these videos!

Love your equipment videos Rick, and really enjoying mixing it up with some tips as of late. Looking forward to you getting your hands on the upcoming TS drivers and giving your opinion (as I’m currently driver shopping). The G400 max is my choice right now unless the TS can somehow change my mind.... keep up the brilliant content mate! Pop over to Australia for some warm weather golf!

Perfect timing on the release of this vid Rick. With GCAmTour Nationals around the corner been looking for something to work on to play my best when the tournament starts.

New subscriber and actually watched this morning before I went out and when I did end up in these situations. Tried these tips and worked absolutely perfect!!! Thanks so much Rick, my sandy savior lol

Great video and I’ll practice these tips tomorrow!

Find your videos extremely helpful….thank you for taking the time to do this.

Great video Rick! Keep up the excellent work!

Great video Rick 👍🏻 will give that a try when I’m out on the course next 👌🏻⛳️

Great info in the video. For greenside bunker shots, i use my 58 degree wedge. I carry Mizuno wedges in 50, 54, and 58 degree lofts. My PW is a part of my Hogan Edge set and is 46 degrees.

Thank you, Rick. Merry Christmas.

Great tips. It helped me with a student. Thanks!

Great tips, especially regarding hitting closer with harder sand. This is something I have struggled with for a while when trying to hit 2-3 inches behind the ball and coming through without enough speed.

Just what I needed. Felt like I spent my whole last round in the bunker. Hopefully now I'll be able to get out and save a few strokes.

I struggle with my bunker play and needed your help and you delivered. Thanks Rick.

I'm rocking Cleveland wedges. They're great for my poor skills.

I watch a few golf videos on RU-vid and yours are the best I think Rick

Great Video Rick. My golf game is a night and day difference after your tutoials. Thanks for all you do!

Awesome tip! I’ve always connected at the ball as opposed to behind it. I will definitely give this a try!

Another amazing video Rick! Keep it up!

good job Rick, always a pleasure listening to you and the advice 💪

Thanks Rick. Great tips mate, I really enjoy your videos, very helpful.

Great video Rick! straight to the point. Thank you.

I have been having difficulty getting out of bunkers recently, so I watched this video several times. Well, using Rick’s three tips, today I went into four bunkers, and I got out of every one of them on the first try! The only problem was that I got out of one bunker but into another! Oh well, another fun day at the golf course!

Love it rick! Keep up the great content.

Great video!! Lots of good tips. Love it keep up the good work

Hey Rick, I watched this video last week, Ive had alot of trouble getting out of bunkers. Ended up in the bunkers on three occasions today, got out firt try each time! cheers

Watched this last night and used the lesson three times today. It was magic! Even from deep insidd a steep greenside bunker! Used my 64 degree wedge.

Great video especially how to hit out of soft to firm sand. Most teach to hit behind ball same distance regardless of sand.

You are my favourite person on RU-vid, I’m fairly new to golf.. I’m now hitting in the 90’s after 20 rounds of golf. It’s not impressive but bit by bit it’s coming down and down. Thank you

The graphics and close up editing were helpful. Really good video

I like the tip about where to aim in hard sand versus soft sand. Thank you

Without a doubt the best channel for tips and tricks, thanks Rick!

I am a beginner and this video has been very helpful. I look forward to trying your tips out on my next round.

Great golfing tip Rick, learning a bit each day.

excellent info on stance, position, loft and follow-through............a card saver!

Great video, last couple of teaching videos have been great. Looking forward to practicing this but hopefully not on the course

It’s going to help me so much. Thanks rick 😜😜

Great information Rick. Thanks.

Bunkers are back in play as the season kicks off. Needed a reminder of these basics. Thanks, Rick!

Amazing tricks! Thanks a lot Rick

Very good tips again Rick. One of the key factors that I think that helps to get out of bunkers is having Confidence in your swing and club choice, which comes with practice

Brilliant tips spent an hour in the bunker last night practicing, so confident now cheers fella! 👌

Hey Rick thanks for the tips. I love playing greenside bunkers but don't like fairway bunkers. Looking forward to learning the best way to do it.

Clear and crisp, very helpful

Great video Rick

Thank you, can't wait to try

I watched this video 3 weeks ago. Not a bad player, single-digit handicap but still, struggle with Bunker play, especially greenside. The Wider stance and focusing at the spot behind the ball where you want the club to enter the sand really helps especially with confidence and keeping the club moving. I've had some success in the bunker after watching this video thanks Rick.

Great video! I use to struggle out of bunkers before I changed to lob wedge. Now get out first shot most of the time

Loving the tips Rick! Though I would love to see some you vs Pete matches again.

Great video! Thank you Rick.

Lovely simple teaching.

Great video thanks for the tip!

Hitting behind the ball is key. Thanks for the tips!

Make me The Sand King! Good to watch you and Ivy. Great vid!

Great videos as usual! Good job Rick 😊

Thanks Rick......this is really good advice....i shall try these tips next time i play.

Great video Rick. Bunker shots are very much fingers crossed for me but after watching your tips let me at them 👍

Fantastic work as always thank you

Great content, thanks for the tips From Thailand :)

Nice and succinct. I will be saving this one and watching again and again. I’ve had my ball too far back! Let’s have one on fairway bunkers.

Thanks for more great instruction

Im terrible out of the bunker and this makes it much more simple and focuses my thoughts on what to do if, and when, I get into a greenside bunker.

You are the best! Thank you for the help!!

Great tips. Added more loft and attacked 3in back of ball all out and good position Cheers
