With the colder weather, small margin for error, and the leather grip, I forget that the 93P can feel quite harsh on mishits. It's something that isn't noticeable during the summer, but I can definitely feel the frame's 61RA now. I know some will say otherwise, to each his own. We all react differently to a frame's specs. Prince, please hurry up and release the 97P. I also hope the pre-prod specimen that guy from this thread had was on the stiffer side and the normal RA will be around 56-57.
I string this frame with Poly Tour Pro ranging from 32-38 lbs and it helps a lot in the cooler weather. 32 is really very nice on the arm. I also hit with a pretty extreme stroke in terms of forgiveness/racquet head speed where I have a very small window for pure striking.
I purchased matched racquets from Singapore and both frames were 62RA unstrung
As much as I loved this 93P racket, I had to sell it because my wrist couldn’t take the strain on forehand. Something about the weight distribution was just too much for me when I would start the upward motion thru impact on forehand. Yonex VCP330 no problem at all. So very similar overall weight, but different distribution not causing pain. Phantom 100P no problem but it is much lighter.
Interesting to see the differences in peoples strokes, I purchased a Vcore SV95 to try and combat a low trajectory and increase room for error but it has really done damage to my wrist. Back to the prince and it is much better and slowly healing back up. I would guess the SV95 is more like the VCP and has more weight in the throat. Felt vague and unconnected to the ball compared to the prince which is very nice.
I might end up with both the new 97P and 14x18 93P to experiment with. Hoping the 97 comes out very soon.
