Which racket should I get?
I have a Donnay Plat 99 that I like but... I feel like it is just too heavy and hard for me to maneuver. I'm looking for a lighter, maybe slightly more powerful racket that has a nice fles (around 60-65) but is also powerful enough to hit a decent service return. I play 3.25 NTRP in my league- but have beaten 4.5 players before. My ground-strokes are mostly top spin and my server are FLAT--no slicing whatsoever. My second serve is a a kick-but needs more speed. I play mostly baseline but am working a lot of more aggressive net rushing when my opponent gives me an opportunity by hitting a short ball.
For reference, I used a Dunlop BIO 200-it feels GREAT- but it is just too low powered for my game.
Any suggestions?
The London seems to spec out perfect for me--but I'm open to any suggestions.
