I Bought A MEGA BUDGET Driver From Temu… And It SHOCKED ME! I Bought The CHEAPEST Driver On Temu… I GOT CONNED!? When buying new golf clubs we often think about buying the best golf clubs of 2024, the longest driver of 2024, the most forgiving driver of 2024, the bets mid handicap driver of 2024 and of course the best budget driver you can buy in 2024? Well I went shopping on the Temu website, which is well known for either spectacular bargains, or horrific knock off fake products, still and a pretty affordable price, in this video I bought the cheapest driver available on Temu, although I honestly thought I was getting a full set of new golf clubs. was this driver a total waste of money? let’s find out… and let’s do it now!

Check that one out Rob check the numbers on this this could be the most insane video I’ve ever done and I got conned I think I may have got the best value golf clubs ever from teu I know hi everyone man is James Robinson and welcome back to this

Channel I think I’ve actually been ripped off though you can see I have opened this already guys we’ve been in the studio with this club I’ll check that one out Rob check the numbers on this go on Club is the key word and I think I’ve been duped a little bit because I

Thought this was going to be exceptional value t-m is the place a little bit like wish.com where you kind of get really really good deals isn’t it so as I’ve opened it up I thought you know what there definitely isn’t a full set of

Clubs in here and as I kind of got to the point inside which we’re going to look at basically a driver now it’s a driver that let’s be fair if you look at the secondhand market and things you can buy G they’ll look a little bit better than

This but I was thinking you know what if it’s a full set and it’s like a set of irons maybe a 5on a 7on a 9 and a driver then it might be great for someone starting out um this is what we’re left with let’s

Take it out there let’s see just how it performs because to be honest it might be a little bit deceiving we’ve been in the studio with this and I’m going to kick things off by giving you this that’s as good as I’ve got if I swing like that every Rob look at this

There’s a taster so as an interesting test let’s play the last few holes here at wly Park Golf Club with this 34 pound Teemu driver of which I feel like I might have been conned a little bit but realistically that’s me just not looking at the fine print so hold man up for

That which a very interesting video title and wait till you see the numbers I can’t wait to show you the numbers because I find it really interesting how you can spend so little on a driver that let’s face it looks so doesn’t tell you what loft is doesn’t tell you what sha

Flex it is and you can hit drives like this one look at this so let’s te off this is a 16th hole quite a difficult hole here actually it will be part gol if you need a good drive away and I’ll hit one I’ve got the Muno St Max driver

In the bag as well to this Rob bring it in look at this that looks like I don’t know where it’s going to go it looks horrendous that doesn’t it I mean a top golf it does it does just like that probably not as good of quality either if you were a

Golfer and you bought this what would you be thinking right oh I’ve marked it by doing that I’ve marked it right I’m not going to pick a shot I’m just going to try and hit one stay there that’s actually done not too bad has it in the air I

Thought that was going to so we hit that maybe a little bit Healy mainly out the middle but a little bit Healy maybe and I right Muno so you could buy 12 of those for this £ 449 if you bought in the wrong place

£499 cuz the big thing here is if I put a bad swing on this it’s just still not going to go well is it there is a huge difference there like a huge difference that is massive there might be like a a very similar strike as well actually

I’ll show you where they’ve finished and I’ll show you the difference in maybe what you’re getting for your money cuz that didn’t feel like a bad shot either it looks terrible do it and interestingly I I often think you definitely not paying for the head cover

But I often think when buying golf clubs you pay in for the consistency of the club so for £39 or £34.99 I I got free delivery because I’ve actually bought quite a lot of stuff of T move to test for you guys now there’s more I actually got this is a

Total different thing but I bought these golf balls from teu PGM Let’s test these just these another day but they are threepiece literally it says threepiece ureth ball so could that rival approv you one these were cheap as well they don’t even come in a box they

Come in a little saet of which I think are broken oh no that’s another video coming soon but golf balls from teu are they any good you’ll find out soon but you’re paying for Time After Time After Time 160 mph ball speed 2,200 spin 270 yards carry that’s generally what you’re

Paying for as soon as you start going cheaper than that if you give it a really good golf swing and get a little bit lucky with how the shaft reacts and the head reacts and everything else you might get that number but you might never get that number again and that’s

Where I don’t know so we managed to get within the 150 yard marker we’re in the rof but theum drivers there and I think I mean I’ll tell you what I’ll tell you how far we’ve got I’ll tell you how far we would have from the Muno the Muno is obviously

In the Fairway as well 150 playing 153 so that’s going to be like probably an 8on for me here might I might downwind AR we I’m going to clean and place this because it is very muddy and it is winter um I know I’m not in the Fairway but fair is only

Fair isn’t it so remember 150 cuz I think Muno especially with the angle we’ve managed to take like a better attacking line with the Muno and that’s where a driver isn’t just how far can it go it’s where can I aim it and where can I hit it didn’t really know where that

One was going to go to be honest but still got an A time we could still we could still birdy this realistically can we get this up there that’s all over it as well birdie with the teu driver Rob how close was that did he get the zoom as well oh he tried

To get the zoom the intern is doing really well though guys hit that subscribe button if you’re enjoying Rob’s camera work and I’d love to tell you a story while we’re walking to this Muno ball I don’t have a story in mind and it’s that long a walk I feel like

I’m running out already but what what would you be happy paying for a driver so if I showed you some drivers on screen now from golf clubs for cash that you could get for 34 quid I guarantee they’re probably better than this and I haven’t looked I will look in the edit

And put it on and I would think it’s going to be a tailor made R seven or like a bad condition Ping G10 maybe would you concur with that rub I think that’s probably about right isn’t it so oh G20 I don’t know about that we had 150 and from this

Drive we have 102 this 50 yards yes it’s on the angle it’s not quite a 50 yard difference but it’s certainly a huge difference isn’t it uh this is a zero by the way the other one’s two I think so much easier than hitting that

Aon watch the Aon be closer now and I guess that is what you pay for isn’t it 50 yards like on one hole with one wedge on one8 you might get closer with the wedge or the a iron over however many holes you hit Drive run on your golf course which

Is probably taking away par 3es maybe the odd intricate Par Four 13 holes 50 yards 13 holes 500 650 yard difference there’s your title right there 650 yard difference with a driver is that clickbait wrong no the math the math speaks for itself doesn’t it so the

Wedge was was online but the wedge has actually gone long we have an easier put with the aan from the teu driver that flag’s right at the back I didn’t realize so obviously I think you can see where it’s pitched actually can’t you and then gone down here so not a bad

Shot at all like realistically if you pitch an 8an 10 yard short here like normal unless there’s a huge Ridge here like there is I must have got to here and then gone down so quite unlucky really we’ll have a go for the birdie with the t-u though I always think

There’s more substance to these videos you know rather than just test it there’s birdie with oh thanks mate I thought the a was really good as well if you hit 10 a and 10 wedges reckon you’d be a lot closer with wedges equally close with bird with each

Guys we’re going to finish off the round just with the teu driver and see if we can make a couple of paths birdies are going to be birdies are going to be excellent second shots from a distance potentially 50 yards further back like you’ve seen don’t go anywhere cuz we’re

Going to jump in the studio I’m going to show you the variety of numbers we’ve had with this driver cuz I was ready to give up on it and then this happened that’s as good as I’ve got if I swung like that every Rob look at this and once again guys I’m a

Believer in you get what you pay for by the way how good is that going to look a new huge pot bunker on the second hole here at woly Park just reminiscent of the one actually that’s over on that green that’s going to look amazing I

Can’t wait for that but back to this driver I’m now going to hit a shot on what I find is the hardest hole in this golf course there’s a lake on the left hand side we might be saying goodbye to the tailor made stripe there’s every

Chance so if I don’t know where this Ball’s going to go we’re into the wind and I’m going to stand here I’m going to try and aim up the right hand side near the 150 marker and just let it move back I feel like with a Mizuno driver I mean

And the reason why I wanted to use a Muno driver was a because I was testing it today and I’ve I’ve kind of got used to it a little bit but it’s not a fitted driver for me that is a 9 and a half degree driver off the rack with a stiff

Shaft it’s not like a fitted Callaway fitted tailor made a fitted tight list it is just a Joe blogs driver so if I was fitted for that driver would it be more than a 650 yard difference Rob there’s every chance isn’t there right we’re going to have to keep the

Low so it hasn’t drawn again it’s in play and it’s it’s a good ball flight like if I was new to golf and I had never hit a golf club before in my life and I hit that one it’s exactly the same shot so the shafts may be performing all right

For me there the kvv shaft will go with but realistically how good is it isn’t it I’m actually grateful it didn’t come as a full set because if the driver’s this bad imagine what the full set would have been like and I’ve never shopped on te before I know a good

Friend of mine Gary Martin has shopped on Teemu quite a lot he buys golf stuff he buys gifts for his partner he buys all sorts of stuff and he kind of vouches by it he says look yeah some of it is not very good but some of it

Actually if you looking for the perfect gift it’s perfect and bearing in mind this is winter golf now you can probably tell we’re off the forward season where we’d normally be in the summer but then because of the temperature in the wind I think it sort of evens itself out I’m

Very happy we’ve not gone in there that is my Nemesis and that’s where usually my bad shots go and the ball doesn’t seem to be the dispersion isn’t that bad that’s what I want to say out here the dispersion is generally okay we hit the Fairway here the distance is very bad

The distance it doesn’t go anywhere at all but the beauty about about that is we’re probably 220 yards out here and it’s driver off the deck because it’s oversized because it has lots of Loft on it how’s that oversized by the way it’s a lot smaller isn’t it like you look at

I’ve just thought about that oversized and then what’s oversized about that one on the left sha shaft length is struggling as well by an inch I also bought another driver off t- that driver’s coming soon that one’s there that one was 90 pound by itself I thought to be honest 90 quid

Maybe I always think about the secondhand market for 90 quid you can get a pretty decent driver so I would hope that is a pretty decent driver we will see I’ll clean and place this it’s pitched here and come back so we’re not doing the best with uh

Potential run out this will be one hell of a birdie wouldn’t it stay there oh dear look at that go I still don’t think that’s the there I H that really good as well that FR drke Rob your show me your face there ter it sounded terrible I thought it

Felt all right to be honest snob two pretty well struck teu drivers and this is what we’re left with we’re short-sided it’s not the epitome of Ideal and I don’t think that even makes sense and we’re now struggling to make a par after two pretty all right golf

Swings as well this is the one thing I’ll say if you are buying Mega budget you can’t always tell if you’re playing well or not because the shafts are that inconsistent the clubs that inconsistent it’s very difficult to tell so if you are using clubs like this I would delve

Into the secondhand market and see what you can get I don’t think we’ve got much room to work with here Rob I can’t blame the driver there can I now but I can blame the location it put us in realistically so there’s that I’ll get the divot in a

Moment and I don’t think I would have been there if it wasn’t for the driver how was a four though go on guys let’s jump in the studio let’s see just how this driver does perform I’ve been kind of just edging it in all video it’s inconsistent but it’s really funny so as

I’ve already mentioned things G a little bit out of hand 30 quid I thought this was like a full set I knew it was probably too good to be true but when I commit to a test and I commit to a review that’s exactly what we do I’m not

Holding out much hope for this um you’ve already seen how it kind of goes out on the golf course and again we have to have our budget hats on here we have to have our this was 30 hats on because I’m not anticipating this to go as far as a

Stealth 2 or a qi1 or if I was to hit a brw handle or something like that so I don’t need to talk much about the looks cuz we’ve done that already out There H patol set on driver Rob my fault that actually felt okay as well worryingly I was thinking that might be all right you know what right hear me out here that we’ve tested a couple of drivers today and that ain’t the worst Rob is it

That’s one I mean the ball speed is horrendous In fairness but like if you want something that goes I say this after one shot on the same it’s a carbon copy again what I love about stuff like this is if you want to get into golf and you

Don’t want to spend a lot of money on stuff there’s so many things out there that’s gone 250 total fair enough like if I’m going to test a new driver it might even creep up to 29300 obviously rolling now it might pitch around 270 to 280 depending on the day on what I’ve

Had for breakfast but 30 quids 30 quid and 250 yard is 250 yards and again that’s like a carbon copy we’re keeping these all in play they’re all pitching at around the same distance and that’s 255 yards 1,00 spin only 150 ball speed the thing that’s obviously lacking here is the

Ball speed you’ll see there’s no actual Loft on here it’s just oversized it’s almost like it’s almost like a joke isn’t it I feel like an and deck are going to now call it oversized going to pop out of the driving range But that’s the first one I’ve like properly got through as well a little bit High a little bit further pitching at two it’s gone left but guys would you spend 30 quid on this or I think I know what most people would do you’d get to golf clubs for cash

Wouldn’t you and buy a kind of 30 quid you can get like an old really old tailor made R5 or R7 for that price that’s as good as I’ve got if I swung like that every Rob look at this go it’s 20$ 19999 spin party like it’s $1 199.99 155 ball 105 Club

Head is it me that’s the problem here £30 now we’ve literally said haven’t we rob we in loads of testing today if you want to pan around Rob I’m show them exactly what we’ve been doing we’ve had a busy day but this is like back end of

The day we thought you know we’ll do the numbers anyway like I thought I was getting a full set of clubs for this and I haven’t I’ve just got that very very loose terminology on the website there by the way cuz I got caught out with

That but if that’s the swing I put on it’s another one I’m just committing to it more there to be honest that’s pit at 241 so you can sort of see how I thought they were the same still lower spin but that’s gone 261 you could play good golf with this

Guys let’s get back out in the golf course let’s now I cuz I haven’t done the outside bit yet the way I’ve structured these videos and I’m already really really excited with this and I probably shouldn’t be I’ll check that one out Rob check the numbers on this go on go on

Carry this could be the most insane video I’ve ever done and I got conned so very very interesting numbers and that is a bogey on this 17th hole if that ever goes in the hole and like I said interesting let’s hit one more off this final T I’m going to hit the Mizuno

Again I’m going to try and hit them both as hard as I physically can I’m really hoping that this team would drive driver doesn’t disintegrate at the top of my back swing and cause me some damage cuz I know the Muno probably won’t do that as well right we’ll set the stall out

With the 499b one why head cover is so difficult to get off and then we’re going to whale on the t-u driver I’m just going to try and get it so we go around the corner and over here you can see there’s a big tractor down there so

We’re not going to finish the ho out but just a nice draw there is that going to hit that tractor that’s like the perfect line and I’ve only just thought that a bit closer than what I thought but that’s a good shot isn’t it for

The I think it’s fair to say that this one isn’t going to go that far same line same shot again it’s like you can’t really turn it can you it’s not a bad shot and it’s a very very weak attempt to again it struck out the middle let’s get down

There let’s get down there and let’s see where they are it could be another 50 yard 650 yards difference over 18 holes that’s what you’re paying for 48.2 playing 46.5 so it’s playing 50 650 yards see you tomorrow bye

  1. Got a brand new Callaway mavrik in the middle of last season. It's 9 degrees, hzrdus shaft, adjustable neck, stiff flex, for $219.99. Best thing I ever did

  2. Hilarious, a few years ago I worked for a liquor distribution company. During our company tournament I won a driver. A Callaway Epic Flash with a shaft that ONLY said Jameson. No manufacturer, no flex. I couldn’t do anything with it. I Installed a top brand shaft and it’s been a great driver.

  3. James, I'm going to dub you "The Pensioners Friend". I love watching your videos like this. I love golf but sure as heck can't afford $600 to $800 Canadian on the latest greatest big name driver out there. And personally, and please no offence to this, but when I see you or any other "youtube" creator unwrapping the latest greatest driver for a review, I'm outta there. Now don't get me wrong. Many viewers want to see that and I perfectly understand your reasoning for doing it. But for me I love these types of videos. Thank you very much for keeping us pensioners in the game. Thank you

  4. I bought an old R510 TP with the Fujikura Speeder 757 shaft in it a couple weeks ago just to screw with my buddy. My gamer is a a new fitted Ai Smoke Max with Ventus TR shaft. The 510 was really only around 15 yards behind my Smoke. For the money the 510 would be hard to beat imo.

  5. Can you test against a $30 used driver? I have an R7 and it doesn’t go as far as my Stealth (obviously) but an apples to apples comparison would be fun

  6. KVV sounds like some kind of a health insurance provider at least here in Germany!! But for the price if you are on a budget the club is not that bad!!🏌‍♂⛳ Maybe try to add some lead tape to the Temu driver?

  7. I think your reference to the excellent value on the second hand market is very relevant. Why take a chance on a completely random item from China?

  8. If your going to consider buying this piece of crap because of budget maybe skip a few rounds and put that money together for a good used driver , you get what you pay for like anything else in life and I just see this thing breaking in no time .

  9. Here's a heads up, when buying from Temu. You need to read the description completely. Don't go by the pictures. Quite often, they'll show things that aren't included, or have things be different sizes than pictured, or the item you buy is a DIY. But if you just go by the picture, you'll be fooled. I ordered a bird bath that I didn't look at the size, I just went by the picture. Needless to say, the bird bath was 6 inches tall. Read the fine print.

  10. I normally defend budget clubs. I think people are often willing to spend hundreds of dollars/pounds to get what usually amounts to 5-6 yards. But in this case 50 effing yards difference? That’s worth every penny. I wouldn’t even recommend this for beginner golfers.

  11. I bought a driver on eBay in 2009
    Orka SD kII for $44 delivered
    It’s a square headed driver
    Still use it today
    It’s so good
    I even tested it against a 2022 callaway driver for distance and spin etc
    The numbers nearly identical

  12. Well if the driver isn't even the longest club in your bag lol, get that G10 instead, cool video

  13. you get what you pay for. may be buying a second hand clubs is a better choice than these no brand clubs

  14. The problem with thinking you were getting a set may be your reading ability. The screenshot of the page that you show clearly says in the headline/description
    "1pc Right Hand Single Golf Club For Men…"

    And if you clicked add to cart without selecting which club it prompts you to select which club you want.

    I bought a different one, almost twice the price. It said mens, the shaft is floppier than a Senior flex and the grip is xsmall. A Junior club not Mens. I couldn't get it to release through the ball. To Temu's credit they took it back and they paid the postage.
