Hey!
I'm interested in any good advice on purchasing a new raquet. I'm a young player, 16 but I've been playing almost daily for a few hours since 2 years ago so I'm not all that bad. I'm also average adult size, so I dont think ill need a junoir raquet.
I switched from some random cheap raquet to a Head Ti S5 fairly quickly and have been using it for almost as long as I've been playing.
Since the 2 years I have improved a lot, I would consider myself to be a 3.5 player but I plan to keep improving.
I've been looking at the reviews and I was interested in buying a Babolat Pro Drive Plus (or whatever Roddick's raquet is) but I'm not sure if thats the best choice. I see alot of people in my club using them, but for $180 and all the talk I hear about pros having custom raquets I'm not sure that its just the material I'm paying for, but the name.
So I'm searching a raquet that will last me the next 2 years again, I want something heavier, I dont know a lot about any other specifics. If this is any help; I'm strong enough to generate my power, my forehand shots are fast considering i have an 8 ounce raquet.
Thanks for your time!
