Volkl SG 7 and Orgsnix 7 295

Crocodile

G.O.A.T.
These 2 green racquets are very interesting racquets. They are 295g, slightly headlight and very thick beam with a stiffness of 73 and 74, which is very stiff in my opinion, and a 104 head. The thing is that both these racquets have no problem handling the stability required for heavy hitting, they are very powerful racquets and being Volkl's they have handle systems (bio sensor ) so there is some comfort there, but I wouldn't call them arm friendly. I think that they would be too stiff for a senior player for instsnce and probably a bit heavy as well.
Although I use thin beam 10 series Volkl frames and the like I don't mind having a bit of fun with these frames but could see an arm problem brewing if I used them all the time. They are very easy racquets to play with.
So the question is, who would be the target market for these frames. Both Chris and Brittany liked these racquets ( It was Brittany's favourite in the Volkl range at the time). Do any of you play with these racquets and can share some insight.

Target market, well cruising around volkls web and factoring in the 104 head size, puts it really at:
intermediate players searching for that user-friendly frame.........
sure high levels many like these options also...possibility a beginner also...depends..
Note: my wife did use the both the volkl 7 (104) series and the 4 (105) series (both at heaver weights) for doubles for about a year. mainly for a little more forgiveness...
Plus in div college tennis, she was a volkl user for awhile....
She ended up, getting back into her level game (and shape) pretty quickly(out for about a year prior -illness /non tennis related) .
Again going back to the w. pro staff 97 and she has not looked back.
Now she playing more singles and a lot less doubles(mixed/& w).

The the volkls are reallt great sticks, one of the tops in quality. The new V-Sense line up are a great options and all should try...
But it still comes down to finding the very best frame for your (current) game.
Some players are much more static in there development, there overall racquet wheelhouse spec needs.
Some change for better of worst and have to make a change for them and there game.
Some not...

Have fun man and not sure if that was a help on not....
