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.

Would love to see L.A.B. Putter review
If you said that you can feel it blindfolded, we would love to see it either as a short clip or full video. I believe the last time you did something like that, I believe it was the difference between real or refurbished Titleist balls.
Think you need another putting lesson mate
I had an old spyder putter as a rental when I was in Hawaii and was immediately enjoying it! I have an Odyssey 2 ball in the bag now and it would be hard to give it up since I absolutely love it, but if I did, it would more than likely be for a Spyder.
Please review some Bettinardi putters!!! They're becoming more popular in the states, they're now in Golf Galaxy's!!
can u try the wilson infinite putter? £120 new so be good review as many guys could afford to get it over a spider, scotty or even pxg putters as they are all going for £400 plus
Paradym blue from TaylorMade?
Went from a Newport 2 to the Spider X Hydroblast circa 2021 and never looked back. Is it aesthetically pleasing over the blade, no. But you cannot deny the performance. Alignment is easier, its forgiving on mishits, and distance control is better. Reason why many pros have switched to a mallet style putter. Great vid as always Rick! Cheers🍻
Always goes back to evnroll…..
I'm learning so mucch about the tools of golf. Thankyou Rick. Can't afford £300 for a putter though!☹
I haven’t changed my putter in about 20 years it’s an odyssey 2 ball blade and it’s still good 👍.
I like your vidz Rick…. but having you review putters is like watching Stevie Wonder review fountain pens…..
Ive had the spider tour for the past few years. Got myself a LE Scotty 9.5 phantom earlier this year and my putting became extremely inconsistent. After a few months and only minor improvements I brought the spider back out for a round and it was night and day difference how much better I was it. Never switching again.( I know the 9.5 is a great putter I'm just bad.)
Rick, I still own and use the original Rossa, centre shafted Spider, and everyone who tries it, says how well balanced and smooth is feels through the stroke. Still using it with the original pistol grip, but back then thick shafts were not the in thing. It is getting ready for a change of grip, which is already purchased, same type of pistol grip on the spiders you have tested here. As ever a good review.
I actually went and got fit for a putter last week. That experience has shown me that without a proper fitting on a quintic system you’re just guessing what the best option is for you.
Rick will choose on looks but the biggest difference you can make to your game is to get a proper fitting.
If you are someone who has more of an arc in their swing, it's not the putter for you
This spider design has always been Taylormade’s best putter the fact that they added the alignment line makes it even better.
Would love to own the Tour putter

Changed to a Spider X this year after trying my son’s Tour version. Game changer. Was aka ‘Harry Potter’s Wand’ as the accuracy vs my previous blade style putters was in a different league. Had to change my style a little, and grip much more loosely to allow it to do it’s thing. When I relax and believe in it, it’s really very forgiving.
TaylorMade is a better marketing company than golf equipment company.
One of the ugliest putters ever in my opinion but when I decided to try I was actually positively surprised! So easy to roll the ball and feels like there is only one stroke you can put with it. First 3 putts were holed and it was a left handed club! (I'm rh)
can you shout my mate out his yt channel is called average golfer or average_asian_golfer
The previous iterations had AWFUL paint/finish chipping and peeling issues.
The colour of these videos in your new studio is just not right. Over saturated.
Two questions:-
1. How can they charge £300 for a putter that was £169 at one point not long ago?
2. Does the paint stay on these and not flake off, unlike taylormades other non milled putters?
looks like they went back to the warehouse a took out the ones that didn't sell from a few years ago resprayed and created marketing hype and off ya go ..best putter of all time. Naa for that price..
Would enjoy hearing about Guy's transition away from the Spider mallet to a blade putter. What was he hoping to gain? Has the transition delivered the expected results? Etc. Thanks!
Clearly, there's no accounting for taste. In my opinion, there are many putters that are better than the spider. Tried them don't like them, will never be in my bag.
