Henry Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 It's always fun to get reaction from local reps when you show them something they have never seen nor get from the company they work for. The place where I play golf had a Mizuno demo day yesterday. Since I am now playing the JPX E600 forged irons, I happily went over to the tent to show off my irons. After introducing myself, I showed my 4 and 8 irons. The rep knew about the JPX line and the fact that the japanese market gets so much more than we do and said great, wonderful, etc and then seemed to have no further interest in these clubs (why should he) and went back to his area. After about an hour of hitting balls, the rep came back to me and asked if he could try and hit a few balls with them. After hitting about a dozen balls (rep said he is a 3 handicap and he had a great looking swing), he wanted to know more about these clubs and how I got them. After all said, his impressions were that feel was much better and softer compared to the MX line. I also had to "educate" the mizuno rep as to the SR shaft (Not avaiable in US) and the stronger lofts. The rep finally concluded by saying he wished he could get his hands on these baby!

Tyler Knott Gregson Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 That's awesome! Gotta love showing people who work for a company things their company makes that they know little to nothing about! You should have offered to trade him for a TON of product!

Yup I love it when Rep's need to ask you questions about their own brand of gear. The feel he loved so much was the superior Endo Forging. You should show him the Custom Mizunos or the Limited Black wedges we just received. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
