there is no edge, each racquet is suited for each person's style of play. so in reality there is no better company

From a business standpoint, I'd say Babolat has an edge right now, but they don't exploit that.

Someone here not too long ago did a very detailed breakdown and more top 100 ATP pros used HEAD racquets than any other brand.

hmmmm, unlike companies like wilson that only re-paint their current models and claim they have new technologies, Babolat and Head have unique models and they actually improve upon models and Babolat in particular, only makes new rackets when they actually have a reason to.

I like em both, as well as Wilson and Prince. Too many brands, no time for all.

It's not about the brand.. It's about the racquet specifications.
I will post here the only racquets i would buy from each brand. Head - Prestige Mid, MP or Pro / Radical MP to put cap leather grip and lead Babolat - Babolat Pure Storm GT Ltd Wilson - 90Tour, 95 series and KbladeTour But those are just my racquet taste.

Definitely Babolat, Babolat won 3 of the 4 major, while Head is losing each and every slam final, what a loser
