Hi all,
I am a long time lurker on this forum but never posted anything so this is my first post.
I am a 38 year old male that started tennis 5 years ago, i am still searching for the best racquet-string combination and see a lot of improvement on my game when i am playing with something that suits me wel.
I have started a few years ago with more powerfull racquets but now i am starting to play much better with less powerfull racquets.
I have 3 dr98 and have been testing different strings on it, i have been settled on weiscannon silverstring for a while but i wanted to try some more spinfriendly options so i could hit more confident and hit shorter angles.
I tried tourbite 1.25mm , rpm blast 1.30mm , pros pro black out 1.24mm and 1.28mm and pros pro strategem 1.30mm. With the strategem 1.30 and the blackout 1.28 i am playing much better because they are so low powered, i really like the combination of the dr98 and these strings @ 22.5kg but they hurt my arm.
So i am looking for either a string that is softer and offers the same dead feeling or a racquet that is more comfy so i can use these same strings without pain.
Sometimes i also play with a dr100 or a pure aero 2019 and i benefit from the larger sweetspot of these racquets but i cant control the power and i hate the launch angle of the racquets.
So idealy i would like a racquet with the size sweetspot of a 100inch a lower power level then a dr98 and about the same launch angle. The 310 gr unstrung of the dr98 is also a maximum for me.
Does anyone have got some suggestions for me? Hybriding the dr98 is also not a chose i think because it gets to much power for me that way. ( i tried rpm blast/spiraltec already)
