I went to the Golftown on Laird at the end of May to demo some Mizuno irons. I've got a pretty good idea what shafts work for me, but wanted to see what the shaft optimizer would recommend. When I asked about it the first two GT employees had no clue what I was talking about. The third guy thought it was in the back but hadn't been set up yet. Asked him to please check with the manager, he came back and said it would be ready in a couple of weeks (middle of June). So I headed back the third week of June and the same story. I asked if it was an issue with Mizuno not providing proper support and was told no, it was an issue with GT head office. I went back for a third time today, another three weeks on, and they are still wandering around with no clear answer regarding if, or when they are ever going to have the shaft optimizer functioning.
Has anyone found any other GT that has the shaft optimizer working? I have no clue what is happening at the Laird store, or if its a company issue. I've been going there for a long time but don't recognize any of the new employees. Nobody has any answers and the go-to excuse seems to be to dump on head office. Don't have the feeling that anyone is interested in doing anything more complicated than selling a stock set. I also find it hard to believe that Mizuno is providing a fitting tool like the shaft optimizer and then not going into the stores to see if it has been set up and is being properly used. I'm assuming Mizuno has a rep who covers the Ontario market.
