I am Rick Shiels, a PGA Golf Professional and I started this golf blog in 2008. My purpose for creating this blog is to share my golfing journey with you as I learn to play golf better, and also enjoy the time that I am playing.
I started out by playing off a 36 handicap but after lots of practice my handicap has come down to an official 7. My aim is to get it down to scratch, so I follow the advice that I give you here carefully, and try to practice as much as possible!
This blog will contain reviews of equipment, courses that I play on, plus my general thoughts on how I feel at the moment with my golfing game. One thing that you can be sure of though is that the content will always be golf related!
If you want to learn more about me then take a look at my about page where you will find a more detailed description of what this site is all about.
