3 pts head light 6pts head light?

[original_NBLADE]

hello there guys i have a question. i have the wilson nblade 98, and was thinking about getting a kblade 98 because i broke one of my nblades and they dont make anymore of those. so i was researching the kblade 98 to see how much to my liking it would be or how similar it would be to the nblade 98. i noticed that the nblade was 6pts head light and the new kblade is 3 pts. if you have laready hit with the nblade and kblade, i was wondering how much of a difference do u feel? does the manuverability feel any different? swing, stabability, or reaction time difference? other peoples opinions are greatly welcomed. Thanks guys really appreciate it!

to me thats a really big difference. the manueverability would be reduced, but power would be increased. should still be able to get spin, but maybe a bit less as the increased weight in the head might cut down your ability to whip. but i'd say try it anyway, my last jump was from a 10 point headlight to a 7 pt headlight and i'll never go back.

dang man that's what i hate about getting a new racquet. you have to get used to it or adjust to it. and i mean i hit pretty flat at times so.. i need the spin. hmm do you know any other options i can take, like adding anything to it to make it match my nblade? or any other racquets that are close or exactly like the nblade? thanks

try adding a bit of lead tape in the handle to make it more headlight.

Mine shattered awhile back when I was reminiscing about what a great stick it was (is). It's some sort of design flaw...or really heavy hitters should go with another stick. They compensated with the KBlade by making it nothing like the nblade.

I still have an nblade that I rarely use because its so awesome...and I'll shatter it again. Plus, its not the greatest for sticking volleys hard into the corners.

Great platform for lead though...one of the best ever.

I tryed the Kblade 98 but I didn't like it very much. Never tryed the nblade, but just by the balance difference I can tell that it is much better.

You should defiantly try the Kblade, but if seems a little too powerful adding lead tape in the handle sounds like a good idea.
