    3.5 Player Racquet Recommendations

    With the amount of racquets out there, looking for one is overwhelming. I am currently a 3.5 male player who is very athletic and fast and can play either aggressive or counter-puncher against hard hitters. I have a nice top spin forehand and a flatter backhand. My serve is terrible (have...
