Also if anyone is interested, have 2 M-Fil 300's in the for sale forum. Cheers!

Thread resurrection!
New Mfil owner (used obviously) elbow sufferer, love it apart from the misshits, currently trying 8 grams at 3 & 9, serves great but still suffering returning hard serves. Just strung with Solinco Barb wire as find it hard to generate topspin...struggling up to now...anybody else tried Barb Wire with this racket?

What are you struggling with? Ball speed? Placement of your return? The serve overpowering your racket? Late to the ball? Not enough control to hit the spin you want?
While I don't use an Mfil 300, I do have one Bio300T and 2 4DAero300's that are my current rackets. STBite 16 at 47 lbs., no problems.

Hi Lee,
Power serves overpowering the racket mainly, doesnt happen when I play with my Biomimetic 200 Tour

Oh no!
I felt unhappy with my LMInstinct so I picked up the M-Fil for a bit (shouldn't do that, been faithfully using just one racquet for a long time now) and aside from the feel of the old grip, it was a sweet hit. My serve was almost immediately better and I found more consistency. Only issue was the BH block or slice but I was avoiding that and playing well.
Snapped the strings on a serve and that was the end. Was broken immediately and couldn't quite reel my opponent in. He commented on my play using the M-Fil 300 as being pretty steady.
Now I have to re-string her and play her again; eek!

Ha! I still find this to be the best all around racquet for me. It's good to know there is at least one other person still swinging one.
I still have one new one in the wrapper.
I demoed a couple of the new offerings from Dunlop and to me it seems they have lost their way or maybe I'm just stuck in a time warp lol

I'm quite surprised about your thoughts – I find it really easy to use and relatively flexible. I do like AG 4D 300 and HotMelt 300G as well.

Hey Lee, I saw a post years back (Many) you listed what are now classic Dunlops. In your experience did the Dunlop 4D 300's ever give you wrist or elbow issues? Are the M-fil 300's or the Aero 300's a softer ride? The 4D is fine in the sweet spot, but even leaded up to a 324 swing weight I get issues. Love the way it plays though.

Wow! That's a lot of lead. I play with a gut poly hybrid so that's a bit too low in tension. Did you find the M-fil more arm friendly then the (Non 4D) Aero 300?
