The 30-year-old influencer is worth around $3.7 million, earning close to a whopping $12,000 per post. Recently, the $3.7 million star took to Twitter to express her dissatisfaction with her latest purchase. Despite earning close to a whopping $12,000 per post, the golf beauty was frustrated about $600 not so well spent. “I bought a $600 driver off the rack and compared the data to my custom-fit driver,” she wrote. “The results were shocking!”

To help fans better understand her experience, the ex-golf pro included a link to her YouTube channel, which had a detailed comparison. In the video, Spiranac explains that she hadn’t bought an off-the-rack club in years until recently. She then went on to test that expensive club with her custom-made club via a stimulation test.

“So for the test, I hit six shots with each driver: with my custom driver and then also with the stock driver. I will say that the stock driver felt better than expected; it felt good through the ball. Two things that I noticed, though one is that it was highly inconsistent,” she said.

“With my custom driver, the dispersion was much tighter. I really don’t miss with this driver; I think it’s because I have so much confidence in it,” she added, brutally honest. “The next thing that I noticed it was all the club 15 yards in distance that I gained by going to a custom driver that fits me perfectly.” 

It certainly seemed like the former professional golfer was leaning towards her custom made driver, but that one test just wasn’t enough for her! She wanted to see them run in the real world.

Paige Spiranac picks out a final winner

Spiranac’s test didn’t didn’t just end at the simulator. The social media icon then tested the clubs once more, this time in an open field. Testing the off-the-rack, she said, “I noticed is that my consistent swing everything was just high and right, and so for the last one, I really feel like I had to like whip it over and turn it over, so I had to change my swing to fit this club. The club’s not bad by any means; it just doesn’t fit me.”

Next came the custom-made club’s trial, and Spiranac found a huge difference. “Every single shot was just absolutely perfect; there was no movement left or right; it was like it was on a string, and the ball flight was much better,” she stated.

All her testing brought the pro to one conclusion: Invest in custom-making rather than throwing money on pricey clubs! For Spiranac, the drives from her new $600 didn’t come close to the performance she got out of her custom club.
