HIT LIKE if you enjoy my videos!

Can only dream of hitting a drive an average of 277y I've just had my ball retriever re-gripped lol

when rick did 5 generation driver testing i think the only company that improved from model to model was titleist - so while these might not be out of this world i respect the fact they do improve no matter how small and are not brining our new gear every 6 weeks

I love how real you get in these reviews, you give us golfers real answers and not a sells pitch. Bless you Rick!!🙌🙌

I too aspire to one day be able to casually practice driving at the course with my bag of ProV1s 😭

Ironically, a mars rover is more affordable

‘Unlike the mars rover, these drivers are not out of this world’ - RS 🤭

I’ve just had a full bag fitting, had in mind what I thought I wanted and what would suit my game and came out with none of it! I soon realised just going for the brand you like won’t help you! Keep up the great content mate your coaching videos have helped me out massively!!!

Rick: "bucket of prov1's" Me: "bucket of range balls and luckily finds a scuffed prov1"

"Do you know when you hit a driver and it pops off the face?" No. No I don't......😭😭

Yes totally enjoy Rick on everything he does but his Tech talk I truly love he's honest don't push the product just gives you the numbers...another great video Rick...Thank you Sir

Rick- a couple years ago I purchased a TS1 after being fitted by the assistant pro at my home club. I absolutely love it. I need a forgiving driver as I am a high handicap golfer (25) with a slower swing. It only carries about 160-180 yards, 200 yards if I really hit it well, but much straighter. With watching your videos on hitting a driver, I have improved a lot this summer. Keep up the good work. Jim

I love how ricks been trying to be hitting more fairways and then then he's complaining about a driver that offers that😅

There is actually nothing better when rick tests a product and talks about it in the office 👍👌

I was swinging an old Cleveland Hibore with a R flex shaft. Used to hit it a ton. I was out of golf for awhile and I’ve gained weight and gotten a bit stronger. I went and got fitted for a new driver. Out of 5 different brands I swung the TSi3 improved me the best. My dispersion was great and I went from 105mph club head speed to 114mph with the Hzrdus smoke RDX 6.5. Spin down from 5800!!! To 2700. Went from 240 carry to 285 carry. It’s amazing how different clubs work for different people!! Cheers! Love the content!!

Hey Rick, I watch all of the review videos and am a golf professional myself. I really enjoy and appreciate the direction you have taken the channel. Holding companies to the claims they are making. Keep it up 👍

One of my local pros told a guy who asked him if "THIS Driver" which he had in his hands, really added 20 yards, and his reply was, if that was the case, by now I'd be hitting a driver over 600 yards...fixing your swing and contact spot adds yards....get lessons, fix that swing, then get fitted and that will add yards.

"hitting a bucket of Pro-V1 balls." bruh i have like 2 that I found in the woods.

You gave me the information I needed. I have TS3 and will just keep that in the bag. It is an awesome driver and still looks amazing. Thanks for the video.

Thank you Rick for the honest review! Your honesty is a nice change from the gimmicks they try to sell on golf channel commercials. I'm happy to be a subscriber! Thanks!

Rick. Before watching any of your videos I was a walking billboard (on the course) for Titleist. Because of you, I have opened up my eyes and started testing / using new brands. Currently have a Cobra driver and a TaylorMade wood. Trust that your videos are serving a great purpose to a lot of golfers, at all different handicaps. Thank you for your honest feedback.

Luckily, managed to pick up a fitted TS3 recently for roughly half the RRP of TSI3. Absolutely love it and will use the savings to put towards lessons to improve my skills (much more limiting in my case than the latest tech).

Rick you are by far my favorite instructional, reviewer, and ball tester out there. You helped me with your videos I was shooting high 80s to mid 90s and you helped me shoot mid 70s and low 80s now thank you. But I have to have up playing the game for awhile now because my irons and hybrid where stolen from me and I don’t have that kind of money to spend to get the same irons and hybrid my friend lended me his ping irons for the time being but hes starting to play more now so I had to return them back to him.My heart hurts because I love this game you helped me enjoy and grow with this game, and even that my irons and hybrid was stolen from me I will still love this game. Thank you for helping me grow with this game and making me a better player and making me a better person. Thank you rick you have a fan for life

2:50 thank you. I don’t know why other reviewers can’t do something this simple yet informative.

Hit the TSi2 and TSi3 drivers today. i I think you nailed the review! Higher handicapper and found the TSi2 more forgiving for me with a tighter landing distribution. Had more issues with control on the TSi3, so my preference was the TSi2. My distance on each was similar with about 250 carry and 260-270 total (trackman, 10-12 deg launch, low spin rate)

Liked Rick, keep the content coming please - only thing keeping me sane! too wet to play golf!!

Rick you do a fantastic job of testing the equipment and I just wanna let you know it’s truly appreciate it.

I bought the TSi3 to replace the 915. I personally noticed a 10 to 20 yard carry difference. however for me I was able to get a much straighter ball flight and the sound was so much better. Meaty is an accurate description. Quite satisfying. I gave the 915 to a good friend who is undyingly grateful so a win win for me. Thanks Rick for a great review. You are the best!

Bought the TS2 which was an upgrade from my 913 and I'm getting almost 20 more yards on it. The technology put into the TS series is hard to get better when it's already near the top! Love my Titleist driver and bought it a few weeks ago when they're clearing them out... If you can get a ts2 or 3 do it for a fraction of the price!

When i test drivers i don't really look at distance a hole lot i like to look at look of club the feel and how accurate i am with it. I'm willing to give up 10 yards if I'm putting the ball in the fairway consistently. And I'm able to shape the ball consistently.

This is why I like your reviews, you do what you do so we can decide what we will or will not do as pertaining to Golf Santa and whether he or she will strike or not. Good stuff Rick, thanks.

Love the clear honesty of your review Rick - legendary!

TXG speaks highly of the TSi3 you might need to get a new GC quad Rick.

Just came back from a fitting. Great experience. Tried all the new drivers and the TSi2 came out on top for me. Did not expect it at all especially against the g425, Rogue Max Cobra LTD and Stealth. It makes such a big impact on confidence.

Great review again Rick. Honest and up front as we have come to expect. You must be knackered now!

Never really thought of wanting a titleilist but these new drivers really change my mind and look like some of the best for this year! Great review always enjoy a rick Shiels vid👍thanks

Did you pick your T-shirt to match the head cover? 😂

I play the TS2. I tested it against TM, Cally and Cobra and it won by a mile. I am looking forward to the TSi2.

Rick’s instructional videos have helped me hit more fairways this year! Unfortunately, I’m so used to hitting out of the rough, I’ve never really learned to hit off of the fairway 😆 Now looking for fairway iron and wood vids.... Another good review here! Thx!

Was never really a fan of your swing over the years, but ive started liking it alot. Crunching it!

Been waiting a while for a good review video.. maybe review some of those Taylormades?

Rick: y'know when you hit a driver and it just "pops" off the face? Me: No.

Great feedback and insight on both new Titleist drivers. Still in search for a low spinning driver as good and consistent as the the Taylormade SIM. Still haven’t found it. You the man Rick!

Great review as always Rick. The best golf club reviews on KZfaq in my opinion!

You should do a video testing the M1 against the SIM.

I like the drivers I need a new one, going on a full bag fitting next year, but as far as you testing them goes I think the weather has a lot to do with it and what your carry distance and over all ends up being, cause whatever the weather is in the UK which I’m sure is pretty chilly, you will lose distance compared to when It’s right in the middle of the summer, but keep doing what your doing I love your videos keep being out great new content

I had done quite a bit of reading before I went for a fitting today. I had figured I would leave with the G425, but came home with the TSi2. In all I was fitted for: Rouge, G425, TSi2, and Stealth. The Titleist was far and away the most consistent for me and second only in distance to the Stealth. Absolutely love the sound and feel of the TSi2, again, not what I expected, as it wasn’t even on my short list. Happily surprised. Thanks for the review, Rick.

Fascinating review. It went from optimistic expectation to objective review. Good job Rick!

Here from the facebook live

Hard to explain why Tommy Fleetwood and other tour pros who are not contracted to a specific brand have out thin in their bag in and removed the TaylorMade Sim driver. 🤷🏻‍♂️ The TSi3 was the most popular driver at this years US OPEN. Go have a look at the TXG review.

I was just fitted into the Tsi3. I told the fitter to find me the best head / shaft combo. I never would have imagined because i originally wanted the ping G410 LSTbut the Tsi3 gave me an average of 4-5 extra mph in ball speed over anything else i tried. I recommend!

Had a custom fitting yesterday and left with the TSi3. My original driver was a 20-year-old Titleist 983k which I love. Did I notice a difference. OH YES! Amazing. You may not notice much if you change every year or two. 20 years? Night and Day. Awesome driver. 25 yards more carry, tighter dispersion. A keeper!

The TSi3 looks phenomenal. Beyond that, the price is a lot to ask for though.

I would give up 10-15 yards all day to hit the fairway more often

Thanks for your very honest thoughts Rick! I have the TS3 and I love it. It's staying in the bag 😊👍

Hi Rick me and my dad love your videos and they really inspire us and we use. Your tips to get better at golf! Thanks for being so inspiring

I’ve always wondered how Rick works around other people playing on the course and how he always seems to get the course to himself

You just get to the point of diminishing returns with these drivers these days. They're all literally within a few specs of one another.

Honest review. Glad to see a comparison with TS3 which I have in the bag. I said I will keep it in the bag for a long time and it kind of assures me that this is the right thing to do. TSi became quite popular on tour and I guess it is because it performs consistently rather than giving you outragous distances which most Tour Players already have. Still, TSi 3 looks sexy though

Loved this review! Amazing information and not biased at all

Titleist are known for being the ‘shorter’ driver. Never boasted about 20+ yards a year distance. You even said yourself how consistent you were with it...

Your review videos keep getting better! Love it! I think it would be cool if you started incorporating more mid to high handicapper data in your reviews. I’m sure most of your subscribers are in that range and it would be interesting to see what this new tech does for a golfer with lower swing speed and higher chance of missing center of the club. Maybe not the best time to start doing it due to quarantine/social distancing but it would be cool to see more of it when you feel it’s safe.

Great review rick! Appreciate you tested it against the previous model. I’m gaming a 913D2, just upgraded the shaft this year but looking for a new head with more explosive distance. I hit the tsi2 and it’s solid! But need to do a proper fitting to maximize potential, maybe a little workout over winter too haha.

I really like the new format Rick, very crisp, informative and professional - congrats! Any chance of mid handicap testing? I like seeing "someone like me" hitting clubs I might buy. Keep up the good work.

Soo Rick are you giving these drivers away 👀

TXG did a review and got 8 yards more carry than Matt’s gamer. The driver was even fitted.

I've been watching your videos from Mexico, I started playing golf 6 months ago! and im a huge fan!

Thanks as usual Rick for your view of these drivers. I feel confident in buying (or not buying) when I know you have done a nice in depth review. Cheers

For driver testing, I'm glad Rick doesn't get the pipe cutter out.

Taylormade: I’m about this mans whole career. 😳

Love watching your review videos! Always unbiased info.

Well thought out review. Like the way you explained the range of drivers and compared with the previous generation. Well done Rick.

I'm still hitting nice bombs with my Taylormade SLDR 🤷🏾‍♂️. There's only so much that can be done to clubs these days. Your pretty much paying for the brand and look.

Rick, how much does temperature and humidity make when testing these things?

Honest and straight as always, glad you don’t get bought off or anything by these companies so you can give us honest reviews

Probably the best review you have done. Very fair n honest. I’m a massive titleist fan n was thinking about getting the tsi2 but after watching this I will stick with my ts2. Keep up the great work rick from ben (aka weapon) 🤣

I’ve honestly really missed a good Rick Shiels club review. Best golf channel by far Love from Philly

I don’t know why, but Titleist drivers never do it for me.

I have always liked Titleist equipment, I am sure there are longer drivers but love the dependability of their stuff. I still like seeing the reviews of other equipment, great video as always.

Great vid! Could you do a specific test to try to quantify the impact of the moveable weight ? I always wondered if this kind of features was more than a marketing gimmick... Keep up the amazing work, you just pushed me to go back on the course after a 8 years break !💪

Hey Rick, you should give a couple of these bad boys away

TXG thought it was the best Titleist they ever tested

Great in depth analysis of these Drivers Rick. I really appreciate your honesty and comments. The hype and blurb of these Drivers don't really do it for me. You need to test and see what the results are like. That's the test! Well done and thanks once again. Cheers Serg

This is a fantastic channel, Rick! Even if you aren't into golf (those people exist, right?) you can enjoy this content. Thanks!

KZfaq tech reviewer “so this is my daily driver” Rick Shiels.......

The TS3 and TSi3 are both gorgeous to look at. Too bad they're not all that impressive with distance.

Great review. Appreciate the honest review of these new drivers

Great video Rick. Can always trust you to give an in depth honest opinion. Good work

I love how wide the reactions are to this driver: Rick: 😒 Mark cross field: 🧐 Txg: 🤯 Mr short game: 😌

I can't say this makes me want to upgrade to them. Sad that after 2 years this is all they could come up with.

Thanks for being so honest! Shoutout to the Cleveland Launcher Turbo driver! You had the same ball speed with that thing for half the price!

A proper honest review, really impressed, thanks Rick

They look absolutely clean but I’ll still slice into the next fairway

Rick don't know how you can keep saying that new equipment isn't impressing you. Your performance has plummeted over the past 7 years I have watched your channel. Love your videos for sure but there is a reason why Peter Finch waxes you on the course. You've become complacent in your game while he has honed his

Hey Rick keep up the good work! Loved the vid!

Good honest feedback as always, shows it's not worth wasting money on latest clubs that don't reward with big enough results, there are not any bad clubs from the big brands so best to get fitted to the clubs that suit and give best results overall.

Rick - You can’t possibly expect the TSI2 to carry a decent distance when your spin rate is 2800... you’re not giving these clubs a fair shake and it’s not an accurate narrative... especially when you are catering to golfers that aren’t gear heads.

Maybe you weren't fitted properly. You don't discuss the shafts and settings you chose. Not convinced about your conclusions.

Love your honest reviews and opinions. I always feel like I can trust you to give a honest to god review. Keep up the good work Rick!!

I can tell you were delighted with that last line. And rightly so!
