Need help regarding switching from an heavier racket

Rare · 01-19-2013, 07:58 AM

My current racket is a Wilson Kblade tour 93 at 344 grams strung, and i want to switch to the hyped Wilson Steam 99s at 326 grams strung.

The problem i have is with my 2handed backhand, i cant feel the racket while i swing, its like swinging a toy!

All tho i like the racket, its nice coming home after a 2hour session with an arm and body that isn't fatigued(playing with the lighter 99s)

Should i add silicone in the handle and leadtape to get the 99s up to 344g or should i learn to play with a backhand with no feel?
