I've been reading here a lot about how graphite is superior to the new stuff and how most of the pros if not all use their older graphite rackets.
So i'm wondering, why is graphite is better than all the new materials? Or not?
Let's take two rackets. Both are exactly the same in weight, flex...why does the graphite racket perform or feel better to all you guys??? I'm guessing it comes down to that vague term "feel". Really, if it weighs the same and reacts the same at contact what's the difference?
I use differnte rackets...I don't play much...they are Dunlop revelation 200g (graphite?), Dunlop 200g (Muscle Weave??? whatever) and sometimes a Tour 90 (techno). I can't feel a differnce between the two dunlops. Sometimes I think the Muscle Weave even feels better than the revalation,but I hear from people telling me that's impossible???
Just curious...no big deal.
