Hey everybody, I was wondering how much people care about where the tennis racquet they use is manufactured? Obviously global economics forces companies to find ways to reduce manufacturing costs. It's also obvious that China can manufacturer just about anything for less than anywhere else in the world and so it's no surprise tennis racquet manufacturers have their racquets made in China these days. Now what I'm wondering is if anyone can tell a difference of models they have used where some where made where the company used to make them versus later ones that are made in China? Now I realize this topic has been discussed before here, but simply for the sake of discussion, it's what I have on my mind today.
More specifically for myself, I am a huge fan of Head racquets. Now we all know Head used make all their consumer models in Austria. I later saw some that were made in the Czech Republic and now all them are made in China. The pros of course get theirs custom made still in Austria, which is understandable. So specifically to all those who own Head racquets, can you tell a difference between ones of the same model that are made in Austria, Czech Republic and China? I think the last consumer Head models that were still made in Austria were the Liquidmetal and Flexpoint models. Please feel free to chime in anyone.
