Hi I’m Rick Shiels, welcome to my channel RickShielsPGAGolf. This KZfaq 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 these big brand putters reviewed against LAB putters

@gavinleeburn5511 7 ай бұрын

Said that from the start but he doesn't seem interested 😕 rather see lab than Adams golf

@seanarmao7385 4 ай бұрын

Lab is twice as much as these putters. Why does brand matter?

@stevesandford11 8 ай бұрын

Hey Rick, wondering if you would consider doing a review on LAB putters. The Link and the Mezz specifically. Loving the content from this new channel so far! Cheers

He has reviewed the df 2.1 a year or two ago.

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.

@bluetoughguy 8 ай бұрын

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.

@kennethbnorris 8 ай бұрын

I bought my daughter a TM Spyder and it has helped her alignment tremendously. My wife had a similar problem when using an Anser style putter and has since changed to the Ping GLE3 Fetch putter, and the mallet style alignment aids have really helped her get her putts a lot closer to the hole. Personally, mallet putters and I don’t get along. Something about the large head makes it harder for me to keep it under control during the stroke. I much prefer a blade style putter (currently using Ping PLD Anser 2). They just feel much more natural to swing to me. Perhaps with more practice, I could make the transition, but the mallets have worked wonders for my wife and daughter.

Love the idea. I have had scotties and oddessey putters in the past and much prefer my spider. Extremely forgiving and easy to line up

@_kdotp 8 ай бұрын

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🍻

@markbishop2787 8 ай бұрын

Thanks for the honest reviews you give. I have watched your channel for a while now. I have a Sacks Parente putter I love. I would like to see you do a review on this putter. It's from a small company in California. Sacks Parente has a low balance point. It feels different from all other putters. I use the Sacks Parente 66!

@mikedown3219 8 ай бұрын

I switched to putting left-handed a couple of years back (still play right handed with rest of clubs). My putting improved a lot in so far as I didn’t constantly feel like I was going to pull my putts as I used to. However, there were still times when I made what I felt was a good strike but the ball did not seem to start on the line I was aiming. So I purchased a TaylorMade Spyder EX and it has transformed my putting. Best putters out there in my view.

@tonylafferty2584 2 ай бұрын

Got mine two weeks ago...4 rounds and I enjoy the tour, fun to watch Scottie putt so well at the Arnold Palmer this weekend with the X.

@user-nf9hp7xj3u 8 ай бұрын

The neck configuration made a big difference for me when I tested Red Spiders years ago, and the velcro holding the putter cover failed early on and the head cover disappeared soon after. It's still my every day putter despite a few missing bits of the red paint.

@petedempsey6976 8 ай бұрын

I got fitted for this exact putter about a month ago and im loving it, has definitely helped lower my scores.

@mikecoughlin4128 8 ай бұрын

I’ve used a Titelist Bullseye putter for decades except for a brief stint with a custom ordered, onset, weighted, blah, blah putter that was hot on the sweet spot and dead elsewhere. I gave it away. I would like to get a putter fitting someday for fun but I love the blade for its simple, non-distracting appearance and it’s super consistent action.

@keithg3800 8 ай бұрын

Did they tell you not to talk about previous generations because it is exactly the same? I just bought a used spider tour for $100 and its the exact same.

@hex45er 8 ай бұрын

Have gone from White Hot Blade to Spider FCG and now an Spider X. Have liked them all and swear alot of it is down to feel of pure roll face. The alignment on the Spiders is awesome. Really clear to get square with ball, putter feet and get it bang on line.

@KreationPhotography Ай бұрын

How does it compare with the FCG? Really considering the FCG as I am a blade lover and need the alignment of the spider, not too fussed with forgiveness... seems like the FCG is the perfect for me but open to other options

@dannyvernon1098 8 ай бұрын

I bought an Orlimar F80 mallet putter last year that is essentially the same design as the putter Rick is using here. Also has a nice oversized grip. If you didn't know it wasn't a TaylorMade Spider putter, you'd think it was one. Good looking putter. Great feel, just the right amount of "heavy" without being overly heavy. Good roll off the face. I don't change putters very often, I find something I stick with it, and I think this will be in my bag for quite a while. And, all of that, for $40. I think I got a heck of a bargain there. I honestly believe I wouldn't be any better off with a $300 TaylorMade version.

@golfbbqandwatches 8 ай бұрын

Been gaming a Spider X Copper slant neck for a few years now and love it. I also have an SC Futura X5 but the Spider just feels better. Don’t know if it’s the slight toe hang or just that it rolls better but the Scotty has been benched for now. Been looking for an OG Spider Tour for a while, but they’re either stupid expensive or in pretty bad shape. As soon as I saw these being re-released I was excited. Gonna go demo them at my local when they hit the shelves. Favouring the Tour T3 so far, they are slick! Great video Rick!!

@Station2Station-du2gh 8 ай бұрын

I like the shape of the Spider X. It's in between the two you tested; the one Rory putts with. These aren't available stateside until the end of Oct. Maybe a Halloween thing.

@miguelaniceto7296 8 ай бұрын

This spider design has always been Taylormade’s best putter the fact that they added the alignment line makes it even better.

@benRivOz 8 ай бұрын

Looks like a great product RS! Thanks again for the frankness.... My only bummer for these Spyder is... i can not pickup a golf ball using the putter (like what i do w blade puttwrs) 😅😅

@bassmaestro1628 8 ай бұрын

I have no idea how reasonable a request this is... but it would be cool to see you review the PING PLD custom putters/ process of fitting and customizing. Maybe going out to Scottsdale in person would be off the table, but they still offer an "online, remote" fitting process.

@tylerwooldridge7933 8 ай бұрын

I love my oddessy 2ball ten putter. I’m not the biggest fan of the 2 ball alignment i actually put stickers on them to make it more of a triple track alignment but for the price i paid for it it’s great. I feel far more confident in my putting ability.

@michaelwilson4690 8 ай бұрын

Love the review. Thinking of going to the spider instead of my two ball now.

@chadode9048 8 ай бұрын

For me personally, anytime I go to a PGA superstore or Golf Galaxy...I putt a few with it - and it just feels so darn light. Almost like I cannot feel the head. Just me - sure many many people like that!

@biberdy Ай бұрын

Most expensive putter I’ve bought but well worth it. I went with goose neck version of the Tour. So stable as the CG is the furthest back for the range. Upgraded from a Tour Mini. Love it.

It would be good to see what kind of hang the putters have, after all different strokes require different hangs.

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 with it. Never switching again.( I know the 9.5 is a great putter I'm just bad.)

@freddym6643 8 ай бұрын

Know it's logistically difficult, but it's a shame that almost all putter reviews don't put the focus on speed control rather then just trying to make short, and usually straight, putts. Speed control is much more important than making putts, and probably more influenced by the type of putter.

I'm still using an Ardmore 3 with plumbers neck, I've been putting the best I ever have in my life lately and have the face incredibly stable, don't see myself changing soon. Everytime I swing a spider it just feels too bulky, it would take a lot of getting used to.

Rick... consider trying out the Brandt Snedecker method of putting. Very short backswing, stopping the putter soon after ball impact. Less time for the putter to lose its square to square alignment to the target line.

The red spider and the odyssey #7 are my two favorite putters. Had them both and love them both but decided to put the Odyssey in the bag and sell the Spider mostly because the Spider has higher resale value.

I went and hit all the models at my local Golf Galaxy and ended up ordering the Z3 with a slant neck. Face balanced putters got left for me but I tried them all out and yes...they went left of target. Then I tried the Tour and X version in a slant neck but the weight placement didn't really compliment my stroke. The V was ok but the Z....now that was sexy. holed 16/16 from 3, 6, 9, and 12'. Made me question why I'm not using a 34" putter when I'm 6'6". Hope it rolls just as well with my custom specs. Time will tell.

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.
