Thanks dParis!
I have played 2 years with a tflash 310, I liked how solid the racket was, easy power and spin, very good in defensive situation and pretty nice feel for a 70 rating stiffness. I guess depends a lot on the materials used in each racket. I wanted to move to something with better feel and less power, and tried the AG 300 4D. At the begining it felt great, much more sharper, better directional control and easier flat agressive shots. But as time passed I found it more challenging, asking me to hit and swing harder than the tflash, and be more precise on the sweetspot. The racket feels great, but as I said lacks that free power, and specially spin. I will be demoing the BB Delta Core Pro, the yonex RDiS 300, aerostorm and youtec radical. I am not expecting anything exceptional from the radical (18x20) (for what I am looking for), but want to really see how the yonex 300 and the BB DC Pro feel. TW didn't have the London or Volkl PB 8 available right now, that's why I choose those extra 2 right now, but I will demo the other 2 later.
Sumarizing, how do you think these rackets would fit in what I am looking for (something between tflash 310 and AG 300 4D)?:
BB Delta Core Pro
Yonex RDiS 300
Bab Aerostorm
BB London
Volkl PB 8
Thanks
No prob.
I'm not familiar with any of the TF frames but your experience with the AG 300 4D is similar to mine. One racket that reminded me of the AG300D was the Volkl PB9. I'd prefer to play a stock racquet, but as little as 5-6g of lead at 12 o'clock on the PB9 improves this racquet a lot. It's maneuverable, like the AG300D, it has perhaps a bit more power but with a larger sweetspot and amazing accuracy and control. Given how nimble both racquets are, I was impressed with the stability of both. The PB9 isn't a quantum leap, but an incremental improvement over the Dunlop.
I've hit with all the racquets in your list except the Yonex. The AeroStorm I hit with was the red and white one, not the new GT. I thought it was a nice racquet but I wasn't overly impressed with it in any particular area. One of my regular hitting partners switched to the AS from one of the older Prince O-port racquets and I noticed an improvement in control and consistency in his game. Feel was decent for a Bobolat, I don't care for their grip shape and I struggled a bit with depth on my shot but to be honest, I didn't give it much of a chance.
The BBDC Pro is a fun racquet to play with. Light, crisp, comfortable and gobs of power and spin. The head feels bigger than 100sq. in. which makes it hard to miss with this racquet, but it lacks the touch and refinement of a smaller mid-plus. It's what I consider to be one of the best, if not the best defensive racquet I've ever used. You just better have great topspin technique or adjust your stroke if you're playing from inside the court.
The BB London is a nice all around racquet. Big sweetspot, comfortable and easy to spin - so, some of the attributes of the Pro in a slightly smaller headsize but much softer, more refined and not as much juice.
I prefer the PB8 295g to the 315g version. Groundstrokes were much easier with the PB8 than the Dunlop and it is a very good defensive racquet. I was playing with both the AG300D and the PB8295g around the same time and everyone said my groundies were much better with the Volkl. One of the problems with the PB8 is that it makes an awful pinging sound, but a vibe damp solves this and the feel and feed back is actually pretty good for the type of racquet that it is. Another problem I had with the PB8 is that I couldn't seem to translate good play off of the ground to my serving game.
Looks like a good demo list to me, panta77. Good luck.
