Hi I’m Rick Shiels, welcome to my channel RickShielsPGAGolf. This RU-vid 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.

No, a lot of people can! Modern blades are not that difficult at all... not like back in the 60, 70 or 80s! Rick's "fear" is just click bate! Its stupid! Multiple golf channels on YT have debunked the myth that blades are somehow only for Tiger in his prime and no one else! Its getting very old and its very untrue! Honestly its tiring to listen to Rick makes himself stupid for his fans... he should be honest and he's not!

@@Riley_Mundt Blades wont make your balls go offline more. They have less of a "hot" face, meaning that the energy tranfer between swing speed and ball speed is less than on chunky "game improvement" irons. There is essentially less tramboline effect. Also the sweetspot is a little smaller, but were are talking 10% more dropoff than game improment irons. What you do gain is looks and feel. You should go try some blades, and forget what Shields is saying... he's clearly lying when he's saying he's scared to hit them yet stripes them perfectly!

Just made the transition from blades to cavities. Blades were 20 years old, my dad had used them in highschool, now ive got newer irons and added on almost 20 to 40 yards worth of distance just based on club head weight alone. Definitely enjoy the blades more then the cavities, but i cant argue with better results, scorewise.
@TheWedgeWizard
@TheWedgeWizard 5 месяцев назад
More likely they’re stronger lofted and/or longer shafted. So many new club are basically a full club stronger so what’s usually considered an 8iron would read 9 on the bottom and so on. That’s why so many people need a 50° wedge these days, they’re making 44° “pitching wedges” when 44° was always a 9-iron and pw was around 48°-49°. Add a little longer shafts to the mix and they go way further. All things equal besides cavity vs muscle back, there’s really not a very big difference.

@@florisvrolijk6309 well you are in the top less than 1% of golfers, I bet not 1 in 1000 golfers gets to even a 2 handicap, forget about almost scratch. I play 40+ rounds a year with random people and I’ve played with three guys in the last 15 years who were that low

Don't fear the blades. Here's the a long story about how I started using blades when I was a 27 handicap. I found a whole set of Nike slingshot irons for $1 per club in a thrift store that were almost brand new. I sold them for $100 easy. That got me looking for similar deals. I found a lady selling 3 sets of clubs for $125. From the pictures I noticed one set of callaways that were easily worth $200. I couldn't believe it. I showed up and sure enough she had a set of Ping G2s, and two sets of Callaways. One set was game improvement clubs that were huge and fat like the ones I played with, and the other set was a set of old Callaway blades. They look smaller than the ones in this video. I felt bad because it was obvious this lady did not know what she had. I'm too honest to take advantage her, so I told her you've got one set here worth at least $200 and I'm not sure on the Pings, but they could be worth over $400 used. I can't give you $125. She insisted, and when I later thought about the face she had when I paid her, I realized she was probably going through a divorce and some poor guy lost all his clubs and she couldn't wait to tell him it was for only $125. Anyways, I thought for sure I would play with the huge cavity back callaways and sell the Ping G2s and the tiny Callaway blades. I'm a 27 handicap after all. but I took all three sets to the range, and you know what, I hit those blades perfect every time. I was shaping shots for the first time ever the first time I used blades. I realized that day that game improvement irons probably help a lot of people, but they were actually hurting me somehow. The smaller target of the blades made me more consistent right away. Also, the sound and feel of a well struck ball on a blade is indescribable. I love it. I ended up selling the other two sets and started playing with the blades. I dropped 10 points off my handicap that year, and started breaking 90 for the first time ever. I got some new grips put on my blades when my handicap was around 17 and the guy doing the work asked me what my handicap was. He said, you must struggle to hit these blades then, huh? I then told him the story I just told you, but he would not believe me. However, trust me, you won't go back once you try some blades. Don't fear them.

I played a set of hand-me-downs. MacGregor Tourney MTs. This was early 80s, but I think the set I had were made in the late 50s/early 60s. Don't recall the exact model #, but they were small, and if you didn't hit it in the center of the face, you were told and your hands were given a very stern warning! When my brother gave me a set of the original Ping Eyes, dang, that was a game changer (figuratively and literally).

@@larrybud separates the boys from the men. If you can hit a small blade, you can compress the ball and if you can compress the ball then the game changes. I just started playing blades because I loved the look and it really has made me a different player. I play the Miuraism sb-02 right now which are actually smaller than the Miura baby blades, all you have to do is set up and frame the ball at impact… best feeling clubs ever.
