What racquet do you use

The Dark Knight · 10-10-2012, 07:36 PM

Poll coming

Just curious what the most popular.....

My bet is Wilson and Babolat and then Head.

I wonder though of Babolat the relative new kid on the block has overtaken the juggernaught Wilson?

Prince ozone tour

Something else surprisingly takes the early lead.

The Dark Knight · 10-10-2012, 08:13 PM

Will Babolat overtake Wilson ? Any bets?

ChicagoJack · 10-10-2012, 08:17 PM

I haven't seen any recent data, but Babolat has been gobbling up market share pretty quickly. In 2010 Babolat racquets had risen to 34.3 percent of the total market share in pro specialty stores, measured in dollars, for the quarter ending in June, according to the Tennis Industry Association. I suspect they've gained even more ground since then.

Wow...amazing!

They do make great sticks....it's relatively new compared to Wilson .

I think Babolat sticks came out in the 90's.....Wilson has probably been around for a hundred years.....

It's really amazing.

The Dark Knight · 10-10-2012, 11:25 PM

Head is in the lead.

I once read that the head ti s-6 is the most popular racquet ever made.

Yes I'm shamelessly bumping.

Mainly PK and Pacific.

SoBad · 10-11-2012, 01:38 AM

I'm the only TF...

imonfire · 10-11-2012, 03:24 AM

Votes have been pretty widely spread so far, I expected Bab/Wilson/Head to have a bigger lead over the others.

The Dark Knight · 10-11-2012, 04:19 AM

Wilson as expected has taken the lead.

Appreciate the bump

And it's because I'm that good

The Dark Knight · 10-11-2012, 08:11 AM

Wow!!! Shocker ....Yonex in the lead???

Rozroz · 10-11-2012, 08:22 AM

huh! Yonex...
who would have thought..

mjnchen · 10-11-2012, 08:35 AM

I am a big Volkl fan. One of the reasons is that I am more used to the grip shape by Head and Volkl. And I prefer the feel of Volkl's sticks to Head's. I will probably try Head Prestige later though I don't quite like the 18*20 string pattern.

The Dark Knight · 10-11-2012, 12:26 PM

More yonex users than babolat ?????

Rozroz · 10-11-2012, 12:29 PM
