Long time reader, infrequent poster here... Looking for your sage advice on racquet modification... I learned to play in the days of Edberg and Sampras, and that's my playing style. Unsurprisingly, my favorite stick awhile back had been Wilson PS 85. I find it a great hit when I'm "on." But at...

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2020-02-05/wind-turbine-blades-can-t-be-recycled-so-they-re-piling-up-in-landfills Wonder what mass of tennis racquets are filling the garbage heaps and lasting for millennia after Djoker & company are done destroying them... [emoji13]

Interesting construction... Hollow - would have been nice with some foam or gel. The metal shank for balance?..

Long time listener, (nearly) first time caller here... Looking from some wisdom from the forum. 4.5 player with classic strokes, 1hbh, serve & volley, continental grip and mostly flat strokes. 40 years old, grew up playing in CA and liking Stefan Edberg. So, after 15 years away from tennis...
