  • Mike at Golf Town Kennedy Commons!

    Long overdue for me to post this but I have to say, in my opinion Mike the GM at Golf Town Kennedy Commons, is just fantastic!

    From the first time I met him a couple of years ago, this man has been so pleasant and professional to deal with-the guy is ALWAYS in a good mood! Knows his stuff, is a man of his word and looks to me to be a great leader! In my experience, retail stores tend to take on the personality of their manager's, so it is no surprise to me that I find the other staff members terrific to deal with as well! Standouts to me are the Assistant Manager {embarrassing that I'm forgetting his name-shaved head-the guy is extremely nice all the time and funny}, Adil {probably misspelled}, Adam {I recently saw this man hit a Great Big Bertha War Bird driver 290 yards with no warm up-I think the next one he hit 298} and the lady who I think is the manager of soft goods {again I am terrible with names-she's been there a long time-knows everything, red hair, and is extremely nice} They also seem to have some other newer staff members who seem like they will be really good too {not surprisingly}

    Only problem with these people is that they are so good, and make going there enjoyable for me every time, that I basically don't go to any other locations, just head to Kennedy!

    I've been a Golf Town customer from day one, and I believe the Kennedy store was the first, so I really appreciate having in my opinion the BEST and most pleasant GM I've met working there, and also a terrific rest of the staff as well. Hope 2016 treats them all well!

    Mike has been always helpful whenever we're there, GT should recognize great employees.

      I'm certain they do...he's still there! (no small feat in the corporate retail world)

            Yes exactly thanks! I sent the head office an email a little while back on Mike as I thought it was much deserving.

                Yep he is a great guy, but sad to say as O'Leary would
                "Is he making any money"?
                Because at the end of the day; the bottom line is all GT/GS head office is going to look at.

                  Is Mike the East Asian fellow (hope this isn't an offensive term) ??

                  If so, I too have dealt with him a few times over the last couple of years and have received top-notch service.

                  Maybe I shouldn't mention this, but during the half price grip event, I popped in mid-week of the sale, and although they were busy, he picked up during our convo that I was gonna browse around for a while before leaving. 30 minutes later, he came in simulator to get me and let me know that my grips were done....

                  I thanked him graciously and off a happy camper I went.

                    I don't know anyone at any GT, and I don't usually comment on such issues, but I will for Mike at the GT Kennedy store. Mike kept me as a customer after Mizuno no showed on me for a scheduled fitting a few months back, to say I was angry at Mizuno for this awful customer service is an under statement (Bye Mizuno-Hello Titleist-see customer service DOES matter).
                    Mike stepped up that day and due to his great service , I've been back a few times and bought various clubs and a new set of Titleist irons. I bought there and will continue to do so, because of Mike. I don't live near that location , I only go to that location when I'm ready to buy. I hope somebody at GT head office reads this , and listens. In this day and age they should keep and grow top managers like Mike at Kennedy GT and I will continue to buy only from that location.

                      That's awesome, he truly is real good guy and treats his staff well! Consider sharing your experience with head office if you haven't already done so =)

                        We miss Mike in the west end. I have yet to meet a manager in retail that works as hard as he does to help the customer and that also means he helps the company he works for as well.

                          +1, always get a good deal from him.

                            Mike is an awesome guy. He has been with GT for 10+ years. I remember his wealth of knowledge when he worked in shoes at 403/winston churchill. Lots of other deserving employees who never get a chance, but glad Mike finally did.

                              I'm not positive but you likely have the right guy-your example certainly sounds like something he would do!

                              I am very happy to hear that so many people agree with me on Mike and his staff-I was hoping this was the case! I also posted it because I assume Golf Town takes a peak on here now and again, so hopefully they have seen this as well.
