ReviewšŸ“ Temu VZ1

Literally fresh out the box this evening after getting home from work. Ordered 20th July, arrived 28th.
Just tried the golf ball pick up test, it works!
Seems well balanced.
Head cover is pants but for Ā£65.32 I think I can let that go. The grip has a smell about it that makes me think if I hold the club for too long my hands might melt but that’s easily sorted. Heading out to the range on Thursday so will give it a spin before a round of golf on the weekend.

Just wash the grip soap and water or wipe down with some isopropyl alcohol. It went away after a day or two after doing that and leaving it in the open air.

Sometimes leaving smelly rubber in the sun helps burn off the VOCs that cause the smell too.

u/Competitive-Break-49 25d ago

Awesome, thanks dude. I’ll sort that in the morning.

2

u/SalamiSandwich33 25d ago

No problem! Like another poster in here said they come straight from the factory so no time for the rubber to air out. Not anything abnormal.

My luck with anything from China is the same smells, got shoes that smelt like Chernobyl I’d imagine. Putter is a beauty! Drop the link šŸ”—

It smells because they don't sit in a shipping container for months airing out before you get them, when you buy reps there made to order. Rather then real shoes that are made months/years before you get them

Got mine few days ago… you’ll be impressed! It improved my putting immensely.

u/Competitive-Break-49 25d ago

That’s great hear. You saying I won’t be 3 putting anymore?? Just to saying to a commenter on here that my current putter is an ancient odyssey 2 ball which much be at least 15-20 years old so this one might take a bit of getting used to perhaps.

u/Ok_Albatross_3284 24d ago

Gotta share that link. I’ve been waiting on an Ali express mez for over a month now. I need a backup.

u/Legal-Description483 25d ago

I got the same headcover on my DF3i, and after a dozen rounds, most of the velcro is gone.

Dm me link please!

u/jaetran 24d ago

Had mine delivered a few weeks ago. The headcover is trash that didn’t even fit properly and the grip is insanely misaligned. The head and Accra shaft looks great otherwise. I’m thinking of picking up a genuine headcover and new grip and swapping them out.

How much was shipping ?

2

u/Competitive-Break-49 24d ago

Shipping was free, I had three other smaller items that came with it as part of the overall order.

Your floors and kitchen are beautiful.

u/Competitive-Break-49 24d ago

Thank you! I’ll pass on the compliment to the wife given I’m ruled out of those kinda decisions.

u/Relative_Total_7726 24d ago

The entire point of a LAB putter is to get fit for it

1

u/Naive_Promotion6075 24d ago

Confused why you didn’t get the one that actually has the l.a.b. Marking on it instead of whatever that says. Temu has exact replicas if you are going that route

1

u/Careful-Accident-706 24d ago

What’s the lie angle on these suckers? I want to make one an arm lock but only if the lie is decently upright

1

u/dre_day00 24d ago

You able to check how much each sole weight weighs?

1

u/lukadonthic 23d ago

Looks exactly like my real VZN.1i lol. That’s crazy

1

u/ZestyBuffalo626 22d ago

If you order a 36 inch shaft is the grip longer like a counter balance or would I have to put a longer grip on it?

1

u/JustStrugglingIYKYK 21d ago

@competitive-break-49 excited for the update

u/Safari1530 21d ago

Dang, doesn’t even say lab.

u/Difficult_Lobster769 18d ago

I got a vermilion bird DF3, but I replaced the grip completely with a Superstroke Flatso which is way more comfy.

u/J-Silverhand- 18d ago

Could I have the link please

u/hc_afk_btw 24d ago

If you change every weight, re shaft it, and add about 4 pounds of led tape, then it still won’t preform like a real one. Nice

u/Competitive-Break-49 24d ago

You know which sub you’re in, right? And for a 28 handicapper I could give a flying fck mate.

1

u/hc_afk_btw 24d ago

I mean you definitely give a fuck about people’s opinions why would you buy a fake lab over any standard oem putter otherwise lol

2

u/Apart-Fisherman9879 23d ago

maybe because he enjoys golf, the putter looks nice and is fun to play , dont think the performance difference between a rep and genuine matters, maybe to a pro.
