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.

Hey Rick, I have an idea for a video that I would like to see!! Can you show the difference between using a new driver head with an older model shaft, and a new premium shaft on a driver from maybe a decade ago? I think that would show how much a shaft or head effect performance

@adriancox-thesantjordigolf3646 2 года назад

Against the M1, please.

@huikh2r 2 года назад

Rick doesn't believe shaft makes much difference. However, I believe shaft is more important than head

@medfloat5001 2 года назад

That is a great idea

@chriscerta9821 2 года назад

@@huikh2r one reason I mentioned it.. is I was able to purchase an atmos shaft seen here on the m4 driver. But I have it currently on the M6 head. Wanted to see his insight on maybe an old RBZ head with a new shaft or vise versa

I actually really like this practice in golf manufacture; it makes modern, Top quality golf equipment much more accessible to the masses, and helps introduce newer golfers to the big names in golf!

@richardhugginsrealestateph7132 2 года назад

The M4 has been in my bag since 2018 and I just haven't found anything better (for me). Some drivers hit further but the M4 keeps me in the fairway more than any driver I've ever owned. Along with the sound. When it’s hit clean there’s not many things I’d rather hear in life. Anyone that buys one should love it. Im tempted to get a refreshed one for backup. Hmmmm

@DiscGoStu 2 года назад

I’ve had one for 2 years now and I love it! I used to primarily play disc golf and when disc golfers find a mold they like they always buy multiple backups…I think it might be appropriate here as well

@SJ-je8gw 2 года назад

Had my M3 now for a couple of years . Recently got given a Sim 2 and after 30 mins on the range with it I hated it . Sold it next day and M3 remains . Feels so solid with mis hits

@scottisaacs2941 2 года назад

Buy a second hand 2018 one, it’ll cost even less than the new one and is serious value for money!

Rick, I've got an M4 from 2018 and I still haven't found anything to replace it with... agree 100% on the feel and sound of the M4... also, the first time I saw the M4 I thought "that looks like the BMW logo"... great video, keep up the good work!!!👍

@grahampatching2717 Год назад

Hi Rick I have an earlier model M4 and I'am very happy with it, I used to slice the ball pretty badly but with this club it hasn't been half as bad, I think your lessons on how not to slice a ball may have helped as well, thanks Rick.

@TacticallyTasty 2 года назад

@nickjohns999 2 года назад

@Michael-uo8sg 2 года назад

Hi Rick, I have the older M4 and after viewing your video, I will not trade up this year. However, I am interested in a new set of irons and the M4 (2021) seem to be in the right price/value range. But, the changes are more evident on the irons compared to the driver and would love to see a review of the new irons to evaluate if they have retained the same capabilities as the older ones. Thank you for your videos, they are really helpful.

@rdoan76 2 года назад

I hope they do this next year for the M6. I love my M6 driver and have no reason to change. I would just got another store for the future. The differences between these older drivers and the new Stealth or so small.

@tomsouthall3355 2 года назад

I currently own the old 2018 model in the 9.5 loft and stiff shaft! Suffer from a big slice but working on that and have to agree it does sound good off the face!

@1lifeonearth 2 года назад

I have the same problem and have been suffering from the slice for 2 years !!! And I just figured out what i might be doing wrong. On take-back, my club is facing up more toward the sky. Try facing the club face more toward the ground on takeback and swing. I cant wait to go to the range and see if this fixed it.

@tylerjohnsonliveidahorealt9808 2 года назад

I think this is just smart. I love the idea of spending less for a brand new older model that basically performs the same as a new model, especially for rookies. I’m never interested in paying the brand new price for a new model to gain 2 yards when my typical drives varies by 15 yards anyways. Makes me want to support Taylor made more and I’ll bet this could help them sell more clubs overall.

I play the M5 driver with a supercharge after market shaft which left me with a tensei orange shaft with no head. So last fall I saw an M3 head on eBay for a low price. I bought it and took to course to test. I was playing with a friend who still played an old Cleveland XL, so I asked if he would like to try it. We both hit it longer than my M5 and his Cleveland. He wanted to buy it straightaway, so it’s now in his bag. Needless to say I bought another one this winter and can’t wait to see if I can reproduce the results. I’ll update you in a couple months.
