Maybe because of the paintjob.

Vantage sounds a lot better and the logo is much cooler and has got the edge; killer instinct kind of edge but subliminal!

Well, it's Paul's company and his decision to make and he's already made the switch/transition.

TP they are not out yet, available in pre order, I expect it will be another week or two until delivery.

Also scotus is right, these are the same molds as the vantage sticks, just a rebrand, personally I like angell better than vantage.

How in the world did you come up with that?

The "A" handle shape is the most rectangular so that's Head.

The rest is a bit of speculation however with Vantage it was Head, Dunlop, Wilson, Prince.

So my guess would be that since the "C" handle shape is the most round, that would make it a Prince.

The "B" is one of those "in the middle" shapes so that could be a Wilson, but it doesn't have to...

"A" is definitely a Head shape. No doubt about it.

Why would a amateur (hobby) player have 10 racquet's, I think you are over thinking your equipment way too much? find a stick you like and some comfy shoes and enjoy the sport, and strive to improve your game, it's not the equipment it's your technique.

Either B or C. B will be a bit more rectangular, C will be rounder. I'd go with B.

Vantage had 4 grip shapes. Head, Dunlop, Wilson and Prince.

If A is head and B is dunlop than C is wilson or prince. I felt that Wilson is more rectangular than dunlop and prince is more square.

Dunlop and Wilson are the most popular gripshapes so i'm for 99,9% convinced C stands for Wilson but why don't you send Paul an e-mail to be sure??

More weight (and technique to handle it) is the answer to getting more pop out of any frame.
