On Page 73 of the Aug Issue of Tennis Magazine, Trend spotting mentioned many of the pro’s are switching from head light rackets to head heavy rackets. Seems the lighter head heavy rackets have more power than the heavy head light rackets.
Pro mentioned were Roddick, Kim Clijsters, and Ferrero. Times are a changing; More power is generated from a head heavy racket than a head light racket.
The article goes on to say adding lead tape to the heads of rackets to makes them more powerful. instead of adding lead in the grip which makes them heavier.
I use a 4 point head light racket and arm and shoulder prolbems are gone. To me, head light frames put to much pressure on the wrist and shoulder which is contrary to many posting.
