I know I'm supposed to do all of those things but actually doing them consistently and all at the same time is another thing.

Very good point, but also two of these are things you can consistently set up prior to the shot and then really just focus on shifting your weight forward when you swing to hit the ball first

As much as I love your other content, so glad to see you still doing instructional content!

He's getting to big for these now

if people legitimately practice this they will truly realize how important these three basics are. but you have to build the consistency with practice and play. another huge thing I discovered that helps with this is focusing on one specific dimple on the top of the ball 2-3 rows towards your clubface. if you can stay focus on that one dimple your entire swing you will make better contact. hope this helps! high school golfer been playing 16 years! edit: I am almost 30 lol I am not a 16 year old who has been playing since I was born hahahaha

watching this before i hit a driving range w my boys

I been watching your old instructional videos because my game has been suffering recently. It’s so cool that you’ve reiterated some basics! It’s always the basics that trip us up! Thank you Rick!

Rick's video on how to grip a putter if you have the yips literally transformed my game. Thanks Rick for all the incredibly useful golf lessons and tips!!

Need this as confirmation. I’m always striving for that “moving forward motion”. Can only achieve it if I pause for a second. Which has helped so much.

Where do you pause, in full "loaded" swing, or halfway up, or?

Absolutely brilliant. Been struggling with my irons and put this content to good use today around the course. Plenty to work on but this is a great reminder of set up for me. Thankyou

Rick, you're the best coach I ever had, thanks for the consistent demonstrations, they're always helpful

Glad you touched on distance from the ball. Not a lot of people talk about that but its what Ive struggled with the most.

Rick, thank you! I have focused on these 3 iron tips and it has helped me so much! I'm hitting the ball consistently in the middle of the face with more accuracy and better ball flight. Awesome 🎉

Thanks to tips like this, I’ve gotten better at my swing and hitting my shots more consistently as a beginner. I’ll be taking a lesson or two and finally hit the course this summer 😎

Back to basics, I love these videos and of course, missed too much during too many time! More like this, Mr. Shiels!

This small little video has absolutely changed my game. Thank you

Totally agree, something has clicked

This takes me back to my swing lessons. I was taught to put my irons in slightly different spots in my stance than you do, but I also don't have fitted clubs either so finding the effective angles is a bit less natural. That part of it goes hand in hand with distance from the ball too. Swing coaching really helped me. Not just with my swing but my attitude too. Golfers are waaaay cockier than we tend to think we are. I went in thinking I knew the general issues with my swing but I wasn't even close. Had to do a lot of rebuilding and lost a lot of distance in the first month or so, but since then I've shot my 2 best scores (a 2-over 9-hole round with 2 birdies last summer, and a 10-over 18-hole round with 6 one-putts and a hole-out birdie 2 weeks ago; and my handicap is 21). I also noticed a huge difference between safe swings and risky swings. Wedges and mid-irons I'll usually club up and stay safe unless I need the spin, and I almost never hit driver at full swing. Once in a while on a long par 3 you just need to pure the loftiest club you can to make it stick, but that type of shot shouldn't be most people's first choice in normal situations if at all possible. No need to choose a gap wedge over a pitching wedge from 130yds solely for ego.

Just bought my first set of irons so this video couldn’t have come at a better time!

Remember don't do what Rick does go get a lesson from an actual pro

Great tips, Rick. I love your teaching videos. You have a marvelous way of demonstrating, but more importantly communicating, the point you are trying to teach.

Great instructions Rick, seems simple and I look forward to trying them out and putting in lots of practice 😂

Rick, I love these kind of videos because they deal with things one can do before they swing the club. For myself, the swing is often just a blur that either works or it doesn't. I can't think about the swing during the actual swing or I'm doomed to hit a bad shot. But these tips can be incorporated consistently and are easily practiced and applied. Well done.

Thanks so much! I am a new to golf at the middle school level and this video helped out a lot!

Great video, absolutely spot on advice. Really easy to follow and short and to the point, I like that as I can have a a quick look on my phone at them before I try and put it into practice on the driving range.

Been playing for a month! Your videos are go to for trying to improve !!! So wry informative

You are a good teacher. You make it easy to understand. Thanks Rick.

I’ve watched this video many times now. The third tip has made a tremendous difference in helping me with more consistent strikes. I used to top the ball on most every hit.

This has changed the way im hitting irons. Nothing else has helped me this much Rick. Thank you for posting this!

Thanks Rick. Love all your videos and challenges.

Brilliant! Thanks Rick! This is another example of an effective and repeatable (yet distilled and easy to digest) method. Looking forward to trying it out soon!

Rick, it's great to see an instructional video again! Really missed this content.

Gonna rewatch this before going to the range. Love these videos! Thanks Rick!

Thank you! My game has greatly improved since I have been watching your videos. I gained about 20-30 yards on my drives alone.

I needed this refresher!

Love the tips ricky

All good advice Rick on hitting irons consistently! Definitely the way I want to set up! Glad to see you back giving instructions! Good Job Rick! Keep up the good work!

Thanks for this simple 3 key video. You're reminding me of the great fundamentals I started with.

cheer Rick, helped tons

This video single handedly taught me how to hit irons. Keep it simple. I appreciate it!

Great stuff....this demonstrates the importance of a consistent pre shot routine.

Thanks Rick, needed this recap of basic set up👌🏻hopefully will improve my game🍻

Your videos are helping me a lot as a beginner. They are quick and easy to understand which makes them perfect for me.

Love this , thank you so much !

I tried this yesterday at the range and can confirm this 100% works. I felt so much more confident with my irons. Thank you!!!

Rick you are a legend! Love your vids, improved my game so much because of you. Golf made simple 👌

Thank you Rick, needed this.

These are the videos we love!!

Thank you, Rick. You're the best.

I was looking for foot position today Read a few articles on the subject but this video comes at the right time to help foot placement. Thanks for the help. I've been playing for a year and I'm still a 105 120 player. I'm trying to learn all I can to improve

these are great gems. i will try these out and hopefully get more consistent with my hits. thanks again.

Thank you Rick so much... Cheers

Always helpful :)

I really appreciate these tips, thanks Rick!

This is great. Featured in our newsletter today at Golf Reporter.

Very brief,direct to the point golf tips. Good video

Really enjoy these. Thank you.

love these! More tip videos like this please Ricky!

I definitely need to be more consistent with my irons. Thanks for the tips Rick.

Great tips Rick

Thanks for the tips I need all the help I can get and I love how you break down the swing

Awesome golf tip. Its always good to get a good refresh on those old pocket book of knowledge tips. Thanks Rick love the channel.

I needed this. 🙌. Now to practice

Another excellent video. Cheers

Rick gets right to the point and instructs so many other ramble and ramble easy to understand

This is exactly the video i needed Rick. As a still new player, I've been struggling being consistent with my iron play. Just a few weeks ago I sent my 7 iron club head flying out on to the range after completely mishitting it. It was pretty embarrassing. I guess no 7 iron play for a while now unfortunately 😅. I need to look back at your older videos and get back to the basics.

The master at work,due to your coaching I can hit woods really well.

This is such a simple but so effective and great video! . The length of this video is perfect imo for tutorial videos and just keeping the concept simple and easy to understand. Keep up the great work Rick and team!

Great video - VERY helpful!

As always, superior pedagogy.

Thanks Rick!!! Also, keep your eye on the ball is key too!

The best tips I’ve had in a while 👍

Thanks Rick

Great video. A teacher I had echoed one of your points years ago. Basically that there are many different types of swings but every good golfer has hands passing the ball before the club, and makes contact with ball first. Still not easy :)

Hi Rick! Thank you for these instructional videos! After 14 out of the game, I'm watching them to get my swing back and Love that they are so easily explained that, I'm watching them with my 12-y/o twins daughters, who are both interested in golf and are getting it really good!!! Hopefully, next time I go back to the course, they'll be my playing partners! I'm So happy for that! A dream come true!!!

Such a simple way to make sure you have the ball position set up correctly, 👍👍

Fantastic room Rick, well worth the wait. Subscribed!
