As I've gotten older, fatter, and slower, I like the extra power and forgiveness that oversize racquets provide. I still have several 90" - 100" racquest, but they rarely get any use.

me too - i am a bit slower, well, allot slower so i prefer the oversize as well. as TCTEN stated - i also have the prince spectrum - in fact - i have 2 of them.
you get the older classic oversize racquets for a song on flea bay. when they first came out - i could not afford them but now i collect them because you can get them for really good prices. most of the time i get them for around $10.00 or under.

i have one of these. i should restring it and take it out for a hit.

Wow, the racquet is in excellent shape. Do you actually play with it on a frequent basis?

I hate to ruin the party. I could not dial in with OS racquets. Despite its bigger sweet spot and power, an OS racquet, in general, does not provide the control that I prefer in a mid size racquet. My current stick is a Head i.prestige mid - comfort, great control and stability.

i tend to agree with you but the Head TT Rad Tour OS has an 18x19 pattern rather than the 16x19 OS sticks. the tighter pattern offers the best control of all the OS sticks i've tried. no, the control isn't as precise as the PS85, but it's also not as demanding either.

I have newer Babolat, Tecnifibre, and Head racquets but the racquet I have used the last 3 months is the Radical Tour Candy Cane.. nothing I've played with comes close to the power and feel of that racquet. Ultimate serve and volley weapon!!
