Default Favorite Brand of Racquet(s)

I used to play with an old ProStaff 6.5
Pawned 4 of em of for like $50 bucks

I like
Wilson
Head
Babalot

basically, federer's, murrary, novak, and nedal/tsonga's rackquet

I just bought a nedal racquet but find I can't hit a big flat serve or as solid of a backhand as I can with an old ProStaff

I like all of these brands a lot.

I believe I am sticking with Wilson though, because I love my pro open.
I also love Wilson pro overgrip.

Although I have had brief love affairs with several different brands of racquets I keep coming back to Wilson for the feel. I am a strong guy and do not need to seek out artificial power to be competitive on the court. Honestly I am really anticipating the new Blade 98 with the 16X19 string pattern!!
I am not one of these silly little dudes that is so defensive about a brand that I get bent out of shape when someone disagrees with my preferences. Unless you are getting paid by a particular manufacturer to use their racquet then you should explore and enjoy the plethora of options available today.
