I have a couple friends who built “custom” stuff both guys have a pretty big following and I was absolutely amazed how long their wait lists are. Just recently lost a friend that made custom spurs, and he had a long list of people wanting to buy his spurs as well.
Tiger possibly has/had the best “swing/stroke” in golf. Then something happened, pretty sure we all know, and his game went downhill fast. Just goes to show how much the brain has to do with it rather than fundamentals.
If you don’t want to chance loosing your $ don’t bet. It’s that simple. Nobody is forcing these “beginners” to gamble, especially with someone they don’t know or know how well they play.
