Prince Hybrid Shark OS VS O3 White MP

[maruzo]

Was playing with the O3 white MP for the latter part of last year. I started the year playing with the shark os to reduce the impact on my elbow.

Love both sticks, but i switched to O3 white because it gave me more consistency and greater control on the direction and placement of the shots.

Alas, winter came and i rested for 1 month. Come January my arm can no longer control the o3 white effectively. Shots become harder to control and power just wasn't there.

Switched back to the shark and quickly won my last 5 sets.

Anyone have experience with both racquets?

This does not make sense to me at all. How long have the strings been in your racket? What kind of string? A os should never be more consistent than a mp

Loved the shark. A good powerful tweener for a player with developing strokes. great feel from the ground.

It does if your reaction timing is a little slower and needs a stick with lower swing weight.

Obviously if my arm strength is fully recovered I would've had more consistent shots with the O3 White.

However, my reduced swinging speed coupled with a fast swinging OS stick made a good combination.

The shots are landing inside the court with more margin and therefore the consistency level rises.

Ahh. Thanks for clarifying
