what is the best 18x20 racket between 95-98 inches
I'm looking for a new racket but cannot decide which one to get. I have to choose between a wilson blade, pure storm limited or dunlop 3.0 or maybe even a vantage/angell.
The racket has to have a 18x20 string pattern and I like to play serve and volley. So who tried these rackets and which one should I get? |
Head Liquid Radical MP with a little weight added to it or PK Redondo C 98, in that order.
|
PK Black Ace or Redondo
Dunlop 4D 200 One of my hitting partners uses the Blade. He loves it. I tried it but prefer a slightly more flexible stick. |
From your list, I'd go Dunlop 3.0 > Blade > PS Ltd.
I haven't hit with the Dunlop, but have hit w/ the Blade & PS Ltd and didn't like either, so the Dunlop can't be that bad. However, I agree w/ yonexRx32 on the Radical MP. Very versatile stick. Another two to look at are the Pacific X Force Pro 18x20 and the Donnay Pro One 18x20. I use the X Force Pro 16x20 and love it. I assume the 18x20 has slightly more control. Form the reviews I've read, the Donnay is supposed to be a nice stick. |
What is the meaning of "best?"

Dunlop 3.0 all the way

Blade and hopefully if the new Speed plays well, that one.

the new blade 98 all the way

I found the Donnay Pro One 18x20 to be the "best" of all the sticks mentioned so far. That said, I'm currently still a BLX Blade 98 user - also a great stick. The Donnay is just a bit softer, so may be switching soon.
Also, FWIW, I used Head Radicals for a long time. I owned all of them, but liked the MG and the LM the most. I like the Blade and the Donnay much better though; more power and spin, larger sweetspots, same control. |
I think the Donnay Pro One 18x20 is pretty sweet.

pink blade
|
I just opened a package from Kal - 2 Donnay X-Series Platinums. Will hit tomorrow but they are really nice so far...
|
Blade, Blade and did I forget to mention Blade?

The Prestige MP has a strong following. The Blade 98 is pure power, but it's not really a player's stick. |
For a heavier option, any of the Wilson 6.1 95 18x20s. Otherwise, a Radical is very nice.
|
PS GT Ltd. ?
|
Depends on how much power you produce. If you produce a ton the Prestige MP is tough to beat because of the precision. Otherwise the Dunlop 3.0, Radical MP and Blade are fine go to's. The Dunlop Bio 200 is also a nice stick if you want something softer with a bit more power than the Prestige.
|
Are the regular BLX Blade and the Pink BLX Blade the same?
Except the pj of course |
Yes the same ^
