Has anyone tried getting a fitting using the new shaft optimizer from mizuno?

I guess you hit a few balls and it will suggest 3 shafts plus whether you should soft or hardstep them - not sure how accurate this is but some info would be appreciated!

Tried it over the weekend. You swing the club 3 times and then it averages a few readings and recommends a shaft for you to try.

I don't remember all the numbers but I know one had to do with tempo and another was swing speed.

Then the rep asked what club you wanted to try and was able to make a club up with the different shafts to see which you liked best.

In my C130 Bag

R9 460
Speed LD 3 & 5W
MP52 3-PW 52 & 56 Spin Milled White Hot 2 ball TP Black

This sounds like a good idea. I saw a video on the internet showing how they do it. Hope they get the units out to the local stores soon.

i used this when i got fitted for my 710 MB's i took 3 swings with and had a 6 iron swing speeds of 90,91 and 92 so i was pretty consistant and in the end he suggestes that i went for the DG X100 to help lower my ballflight and tighten my shot dispersion

I played around with this today as I already have a set of MP-52s and wanted to see how it compared. Sure enough, I was fit once again for the shaft that I have been playing for the past year. What was cool was I could try my shaft on some different heads. I liked the 58s, 62s and was drooling over the 68s ( but I 'm not good enough to game them...yet!). It was nice to know that the clubs I have have a many more rounds in them.

      Retaining Trail Knee Flex in the Backswing

      By iacas · Posted

      Thanks but honestly… I don't know any other way. I don't mind being wrong so long as I know where to go from there. I don't like being wrong — I'd love to get things right (which is different than "being right"). I recommend grabbing a furniture slider or a paper plate or something, and doing something like this: First, make a swing where you let your trail foot swing out as you turn, then twist that foot back in. From DL and FO, it'll look like this: Then, during a regular backswing, try to twist your foot in slightly (demonstrated in the left image): You'll notice a crease along the trail side of your hip, your pelvis will "fold" into that thigh (internal rotation of the hip joint), and your "bits" will be squished a little between your pelvis and your thigh. Ben Hogan said once: "At the top of the back swing the groin muscle on the inside of your rt [sic] leg near your right nut will tighten," Hogan wrote. "This subtle feeling of tightness there tells you that you have made the correct move back from the ball." I don't know about that, but you will probably feel something down around that area.

      Yep. I think it will start to feel even more athletic when we start on the downswing stuff later.  I know, it's just I want to be younger so I have more time to enjoy the changes. 🙂

      I need to drop a couple of stone. 🙂 😛    Yep. Yeah, but in the end, it feels more athletic, like you're actually using your legs, yeah? As you know… we use the best available info we have. Like others, I was fooled a little by 2D images for awhile (moving or still). Unlike others, I've learned and grown and moved on since then, while they're still looking at their images (often from lousy camera angles).
