Just pulled my R-22 out tonight (the racquet is 24 years young) and was amazed at the control, feel, touch, and comfort of it. It's definitely not going to blow anyone off the court with power, but I guess if I want to increase the power level I can always go with full natural gut at low tension. But as it is right now (syn gut at mid tension), the racquet's a beauty. Quite frankly, I think I played better with this racquet than I have been with my "regular" racquet lately.
I'm actually thinking of switching BACK to this frame if all goes well over the next few sessions.
Anyone else still playing with old school racquets? And I don't mean just for fun, but I mean as your main stick.
