All,
Ive been out of tennis for a few years now, and have played with several frames along the way. My two favorites have been the K Blade Tour 93 and the Pure Storm LTD. They both allowed me to be the most consistent which has always resulted in my best success. I have never fared well with power frames. Both just at or under 12 ounces, thin beam, 18x20 and quite headlight with a low swingweight. The K blade was stiffer than the Pure storm, and a little more powerful, and likely a better fit for my game. It did have some nice flex in the hoop, which i like.
I can generate my own power on the forehand side which is very whippy (too whippy honestly), and hit a two handed backhand mixing in quite a bit of slice. I am a USTA 4.5 rated player in my mid 30s and very physically fit, but probably 4.0 these days having not played in so long.
Any rackets come to mind? A 95-98 headsize would be ideal. My game can use the extra area -_-
The new Wilson ultra tour seems like a good fit, albeit insanely priced. Maybe also an Angell racket? Though i have read they are similar to dunlop rackets which I have never enjoyed.
Thank you for your feedback.
