Don't Buy This Product I had been seeing a lot of social media ads for a cool looking gadget from STRIVON Golf (formerly Golfpod). It was an extendable, collapsible tripod that fits in a golf bag, with an adjustable camera holder mount. The cost was around $100 all in. That sounded pretty good and pretty convenient for my personal use, as well as for use with my lessons. So I ordered one. I received it in a reasonable amount of time, and rushed to the range at my first opportunity to try it, and here's how that worked out.
Luckily, nothing broke on my iPhone, thankfully my Otterbox Defender case did its job. On May 20th, I emailed STRIVON, told them what happened, and asked them what their procedure was for a refund. They replied with a return address and said: "Please note that return shipping will need to be arranged and covered on your end. We recommend using a trackable shipping method to ensure safe delivery. Once the item is received, we will proceed with the next steps." So I shipped it back via UPS (another $20) on May 21st, supplied them with the tracking number as instructed, and it was delivered to them on May 28th. I emailed them on June 6th, June 10th, and June 13th, and have never received a reply, apparently they've ghosted me! Long story short, don't buy their product - it's poorly constructed and their customer service appears to be nothing but an AI ghost. I've reverted back to my bulkier tripod with a magsafe head for my iPhone, and although it's bigger, it can withstand a hurricane. What was I thinking? 😄 😄 😄 Don't try STRIVON, you won't like it!
