So I went to go return my demos (Blade v8 / Head Speed), and there they were - these beautiful new Blade v9s on launch day....and so now I have a Blade v9 16x19!
Unstrung weight 306g, unstrung SW288. Figured I loved the feel so much and the early reviews all said it's a bit stiffer with a bit more power than the v8s...
I was playing last night too but didn't have time to string up the new Blade, so I had a farewell hit with the Vcore95. I hit so well it wasn't funny. But I was loose and swinging out and hitting some of the best balls ever. Great reminder that this "loose but committed" physical state is how to get the most of any racquet.
Thanks all for the tips and suggestions. Let's see how the new stick goes.
