Can I Break 75 with my NEW GOLF CLUBS! 

Gotta have an old bluey montage 😅 deserves a hero's send off

I’ve got a new slogan for your putter headcovers “I’d love to chip this, but…”

"I'm going to chip more today" putts whenever within 20 yards of the green 😂 god bless you Rick

Lose the Darkspeed and put the G430 10K in the bag. The only distance you’re gaining is hitting it further into trouble.

It is fun watching you when you refuse to give up and don’t get mad. Keep it up Rick

I don’t think it’s the clubs Rick tbh

Rick facing a severe downhill lie on the fringe from 40 feet on the first hole with putter in hand, "I see no reason for backspin or a quick stop." Blows it ten feet past the hole. Never change Rick Shiels, never change... I almost cried laughing.

Wilson staff is finally getting the respect they deserve

And the Bag will be changed out in a months time 🤣

Surprised Rick isn't playing the Ping G430 Max 10K. Seems so long and forgiving. Best of both worlds.

Should do a series where someone takes you out and talks you through course management. Feel like it would massively help pre open qualifying. Just bombing driving every hole doesn’t seem to work all that well atm.

This video reminds that not everything on youtube or the golf course is perfect. This is real golf. 8's happen, wind happens, mishits happen, but a lot of good shots as well.

Rick should team up with Arccos, always seems like he misjudges how far he hits it, or how much the wind affects shots - helped me a ton when I started using it

I took notes. That driver got you in trouble on 5 holes (twice on the quad hole), but is didn't see any instances where the extra 10-20 yeards gained a shot. You also short sided yourself from bad shots 3 times resulting in a dropped shot and underclubbed 2-3 times resulting in a dropped shot but the wind wasn't helping here. Get a driver you can hit and make some better course management choices and you'll break 75 easily. Hole 1 Bogey from short siding after thinning approach shot Hole 2 Bogey from failing to up and down after short sided Hole 3 Par save after wayward tee shot Hole 4 Par after missing 10ft birdie put Hole 5 Up and down for par Hole 6 Quad. OB drive, 3rd shot into fairway bunker (should have hit 3 wood off tee) which fell too short for realistic up and down Hole 7 Lucky birdie after 2nd should have run well through green Hole 8 Green in reg, birdie 15ft putt Hole 9 Par. Missed 10ft birdie putt Hole 10 Birdie! Green in reg. long putt Hole 11 Bogey stemming from errant drive Hole 12 Underclubbed tee shot leaving 20 yards short in bunker. Lucky GUR to up and down for par Hole 13 Par. On for 3 missed long birdie putt Hole 14 Par - should have birdied. Thinned approach shot with tail wind running through the green (landing short correct play) Hole 15 Bogey stemming from wayward drive Hole 16 Bogey. Wrong club from strong wind, chip landed short, failed up and down Hole 17 Birdie after green in reg Hole 18 Errant drive - missed birdie chance

Love this! "Driver has been getting me in trouble all day"....last hole...."just going to rip it with the driver" 🤣

Have to say that the addition of the GUR sign in the bag worked wonders today

Now that's proper golf - a great links course, scraggy rough, wind and rain. Perfect. Credit to you Rick for reminding us that even good golfers (yes, that's you!) struggle in adverse conditions - but the love of the game is still there! BTW grab the Wilson woods - you won't regret it.

I was going to say your driver was what let you down. I’m glad you realize that. I think the irons and putter are a great choices for you. Good video.👍

Love how positive you are with yourself now, hard work paying off 👍🏼

Rick stop being ridiculous, put old bluey back in the bag.

21:59 John Rahm made an 8 and still won the masters!!! Pick your head up and keep trucking!!!

15:15 For a moment, I thought you were gonna grab the putter... 🤣

Leave the lob wedge in the bag and start pitching and chipping with your PW or 9i. I've seen you flub way too many wedges.

I already commented, but after reading some of the comments what's wrong with people? The negativity is crazy. No lie, this man literally helped some of us get through a GLOBAL PANDEMIC with his content. How soon we forget. If you don't like him, don't watch, but don't just come here to be negative. I know all the views and comments help him, but damn. Keyboard gangsters. Keep grinding Ricky! You're appreciated in my household!

My Friday is complete ! Time to enjoy rick breaking 75!!

No golfer in history has said, “my contact was superb” after a greenside chip shot that you leave 15 foot short. 43:05 in the vid

Great production; I dig the stat share after 9 holes. Rick, remember we love you for so much more than the score you shoot. Cheers from Jaxon Golf Shop in Somerville, MA.

Break 75 is by far my favourite golf content online. I'm 66 years old, been playing 3 years and would LOVE to challenge Rick around my home course.

Love to see Wilson gear out there finally! Getting the respect they deserve 👍🏼

33:00 the person in the bunker. We've all been there 😂

Respect for showing hole #6. I feel like there’s a couple major RU-vid golf channels that take quite a bit of liberty with their lies, drops, and mishits (not naming names). I’m a bit of a Ping fan, so this may be a bit biased, but I think a couple of Ping clubs might be the answer for you. 1. The 10k max. Finch seems to love it. 2. Don’t laugh, but a Chipr might do you a world of good. You’ve got a lot of confidence with your putting off of the green, and the Chipr gives you more of a putting feel with just enough loft to get you over some rough areas. However, I know ego keeps the Chipr out of many bags, much like people choosing MBs when CBs might help them more. Regardless, I’m a terrible golfer anyways, so my opinion means nothing lol 😂 Always enjoy your videos Rick, keep up the great content!

Liked the stats graphics halfway through, really good insight! Great vid as always!!

This is starting to remind me of my own game! I once hit a 13 (blame a large lake!) followed by a birdie 3...Golf is a crazy game! Great video Rick

Can't wait for 49 minutes of Rick blaming the club after every ropey shot😂😂😂.

Glad that the HIT channel has been back. I was concerned for a while that it may be neglected after such a short rub. Keep it up! I'd love to see some wacky clubs tested there, maybe some wood putters vs modern putters, crazy club designs, and wild driver claims. Can't wait to see more!

I love that he’s wearing the Cabot hat! Still astonished you come down to my little town and golfed that course!

Bro there ain’t no way Rick is finding all these shots in the weeds. That stuff is thick with tons of bushes and he somehow finds it every single time? No way

Honestly. I hate to see you with the Cobra Darkspeed. I dont remember a single break 75 with the Cobra driver ever beeing good. I love to see you golf. But the Cobra just isnt for you (when looking at the evidence of holes with the driver. I think it would be so mutch better for you to use a driver that has loads of spins who helps you find the fairways more. Again who am I to say sutch things, I am just a fan.

Great video Rick, regarding the 3 wood situation. I was the same as you in struggling a little to get consistently so I trialed out the Ping Max 5 wood with a 3 woods shaft, didn't sacrifice much distance off the tee and much easier to hit off the fairway. Never looked back, love that club now.

Your drip is outstanding, Rick!! Keep grinding, I see great golf coming in future videos!

States "I'm going to chip more this round." Proceeds to putt from off the green on the first two holes.

It wasn’t that long ago when you use to pipe driver with a draw. Whenever we would talk about your game it was always complementary to your driving. Going with the Wilson theme I remember you loving the Dynapower in the test..

What a wonderful hitter of long irons you are rick-kind of surprised you didn't go for the cb 2 iron-imagine your rollout and distance? Superb to see an accomplished golfer using wilson again,wilson are superb.

Great finish. Take that 8 into consideration. Like the way you evaluated your clubs after the round and yes you let your driver down.

It’s crazy how he manages to find all those shots deep in to no man’s land and all playable 🤔😂

Rick- Good drive needed. *Also Rick- I'm going to hit this as hard as I can.

140 yard sand wedge showed how strong the wind was Rick. I believe you normally hit that club about ~105 yds. As always, thanks for keeping it REAL.

would love to see a video where you discuss how you choose the specs and shafts of all your new clubs! thanks for the great content!

Please put in the description or in the front of video when this was filmed. We don’t know if this is Rick from last week or from 6 months ago or from one year ago. Thanks!

Would love to see Rick get a fitting with the TXG guys to really dial in his clubs. Also would be interesting to see a 5 wood instead of a 3 wood for Rick

Rick, I so feel for you mate. Played my club course last week and played so well on front nine. Bogeyed the tenth then on the par 3 eleventh I came off with a nine. Card completely wrecked.

Nice to see wilson being used I have wilson blades made me learn to play better as I didnt want hit them bad XD but i love the clubs so much, I have the dynapower driver which i enjoy too

Yes! He put the Wilson's CBs (you said MBs) in the BAG!!! Finally dude. Needs to ditch the Cobra though Rick, fact is you just cant hit it consistent enough. It KILLED your score man, fairways!! Even if you lose 20 yards mate. Your iron play set you up for those birdie chances today, really good (when you didnt hit it too clean). I agree the Driver is the issue my pal.

Love your vids Rick. Would you ever do a video with Pete Cowen? I feel like it would be super entertaining and I'd love to hear what he thinks of your swing

Great to see the lads from Bushido Golf on the 18th 🙌🙌 awesome

Your transparency on these videos is so fresh, love this type of content.

6 over with the way that driver behaved isn’t bad at all. what would improve the break 75 series for me, is if Rick took himself to see Mr. Ian Fraser in Toronto for a full driver fitting. break 75 would become a cake walk

How does anyone find their ball in that kind of rough (hole 18)?? I've lost them in the second cut off the green.

I must say I love the sound the putter makes it’s like a clicking sound almost love it.

I brought Wilson irons as my first set about 20 years ago. They were down from $1500 (NZ) to $500 at my local range! They were last seasons stock and were bloody great irons.

Ditch that Cobra, Rick, Hit the Ping straight and save all those strokes. Speed isn't everything. Great content!!

Wonder if Rick named his new putter “old rusty” 😂

It's England in spring time. The fact that you are outdoors is an achievement in itself.

Driver wedge on a par 5 is awesome! Sweet 330 yard drive, distance does not seem to be a problem Rick!

I am loving the look of the new Wilson’s.

Not fan that driver what point of the extra distance if its costing you shots

I would find it so hard in your position to stick with certain clubs because of all the choices you have! I love this series, in how it gives us a look into how you approach a round and what your thinking throughout. Keep up the amazing content!! PS come to Australia it feels like there's less wind down here

I honestly love Rick and the channel is amazing but watching Rick play is like watching Utd

Great club selection apart from that driver for me. I'd try out the ping max , same as your 3 wood as going by others trying it it's VERY forgiven and u get plenty distance from it unlike the previous 2 max models

I’ve always found it so weird that I can watch a video, see someone’s aim/line and say that it needs to be more left/right and be correct 80% of the time as a viewer. However on the course those reads turn to mud because it’s so hard to trust what you’ve read and it gets in the back of your mind and you push or pull, hit it short or long etc. I guess my point is (as someone who is NOT good at putting) is that it seems easy to read when you watch someone else do it but almost impossible trusting the read for yourself. We watch these videos and judge so much and the way they sometimes go probably make us feel a lot better about ourselves, but; we should all realise that this game is so difficult and watching and judging with no pressure is so much easier than even hitting a 5 footer with your friend, and, I love that it’s the same for everyone. Great video, thank you.

I’m glad you called it out on the 17th, I’ve been wondering for a while how in a year where taylormade and ping have made such amazing forgiving drivers how you could go anywhere but those two brands

I never miss a video! 👍🏻 great job team Shiels

Having recently watched Bryson DeChambeau playing with "a Kids Starter Set" and also his "3 club challenge" against yourself. Reminded me of what an old pro said to me over 30 years ago when I was thinking of spending a lot of money on new clubs. "You do know that that little white ball, has absolutely no idea what your about to hit it up the backside with, don't you"

Hey Rick you said you had the "Wilson Staff MB irons" but those lol like the CB irons? 🤔

As always, love the content. I really do think you need to switch drivers; I haven’t seen you hit that Darkspeed with any kind of consistency since you put it in the bag.

Watching Rick count his 8 is why amateur golfers love these videos😂💪

"I'm looking for more distance this year" - why Rick? It's obvious the issues in your game right now are chipping and consistency off the tee. It's painful watching you constantly struggle, fall way behind the ability level of other youtubers around you and then say your investing time into finding 20 yards in your drives... WHY?!?

Rick have been watching you for years now & one thing I realise is you make things very difficult for yourself. Shorter par 4s not needing to hit driver hit irons instead & keep it in play! The quad hole a great example! All the best bud love the videos 👌🏽

I nearly stopped watching at the blow up snowman 8 hole, glad u stayed for some more though! What a bounce back

Love the videos. Please do a review on the Wilson Dynapower Driver!

Come on Rick! As a pro golfer you know only too well that any MB's have to be struck out of the middle. Anything other than the middle and it aint gonna end well. Sure they look good, but you need either MC's or perhaps some hollow heads. Forgiveness is what you need, you rarely hit the middle. The 3 wood makes sense, Max. The driver makes no sense at all. Forget a Low Spin head get a Ping 10k in with a low spin shaft. It works for Pete. Your problem is you aint a scratch golfer now you are going to need help. It gives me no pleasure to say all this. I am 16.5 handicap i reckon i could give you a run for your money

You reviewed dark speed as least consistent. Why did you go with it? I figured it be ping g430 or Qi10

Your mental game has really improved Rick! Staying focused and optimistic enough to make three birdies in quick succession after a quad - might not have happened only a few years ago. Very much an inspiration for those bad holes we all get during a round!

Really enjoyed this video Rick - looked like tough conditions. I’m glad you’re honest about the driver and think you should get back to the Ping. Also, it might be and idea to watch your video withDanGrieve 👍🏼👍🏼

The snowman takes his revenge!!

I see plenty of RU-vid videos about course management, I wonder would it cross Rick's mind with hindsight to just play short of the bunker on the 6th , 3 Wood, 3 iron perhaps and have a wedge in. Even scratch golfers have to hit their Sunday best drive 336. Maybe I'm wrong , who knows

Love the half way stats - great addition to content 👊

I respect the fact that you showed that 8. Would have been easy to not show the first tee shot or take an extra try at the bunker shot. For a 16 handicapper it feels good to know that even RICK SHIELS puts up a snowman every now and then.

All the gear, but no idea.

Quote from Linford Christie: It not the shoes, it’s the man.

21:00 that improved chipping demonstrated 😂

You are such a talented golfer but watching you play hole 6 makes me feel much better seeing great golfers like yourself hitting silly shots I also make myself. Keep up the amazing content Rick 🤩

I think we need to see what happens if Rick committed 6 months to a full set of fitted Ping G430 Max’s with some Cleveland CBX wedges. Is it truth or myth that better players play worse with them?

Dude just put up a 78 with a quad on his card, with new sticks and absolute shite weather. If you noticed, his cameramen were bundled up! Rick, Once you dial these in, you're gonna have a new series, Break 70!

The comedic genius of the content script writers is absolutely brilliant. Unmatched. I got a gorgeous Taylormade driver here. I am really going to enjoy hitting hit. "Fooore right" as guests desperately scramble for shelter. 😊

Love the blacked out ping putter! Looks really cool!

I was trying to think when have I seen Rick play a good game. All the tech and clubs... but

Those irons make absolutely 0 sense for Rick

"We have an easy par 4 coming up next" Proceeds to quadruple bogey it 😅Love ya Rick!

After seeing that review he did with these irons, I’m not surprised those are what he’s going with. He hit them so well in that video. It’s a real good review of them too. I don’t have them myself but that video did make me consider giving them a try.
