Imagine if Fed used a larger head size...

Seems he hasn't much trouble hitting sweet spot as is. Curious as to what this would accomplish.

You don't think he would've switched to a larger head size if he knew it would benefit him? I assume Fed know's more about his game than you do.

Different racquets don't suit different people.....give Rafa Roger's racquet and give Roger Rafa's racquet and they both wouldnt do as well...

Zing!

Better question than the OP's:

What kind of peanut butter should I get at the store. Should I go with the Adam's or should I do the "grind your own" stuff.

Adressed to OP: this is one of life's bigger questions(take the lesson from oour fellow experienced poster ED)... the sort of thing you should be starting threads in the GPP section and not in the gear section where this threads should feel at home.

A few ideas for your next ones:

- If Rafa´s Headband was made of Egiptian cotton, how many more slams would he have
- If Karlovic was smaller would he be the worlds biggest Midget?
- If Santoro dressed in black with chinesse collars type shirts, would he be called The Magician?

Lol hahaha......


The larger the head, the bigger the sweet spot, more power which - less control
The smaller the head, smaller sweet spot, less power- more control
Large or oversized head sizes only became fashionable when agassi came into play.

Fed's racquet head size isnt that small its mid sized.

Bigger isn't always better, even Henin still sticks to her natural gut strings over polyester not even a combination of both nat. gut and polyester,

He would probably lose more games because it's not meant for him.

What if nadal had a 130 inch weed? Yeah, same, he wouldn't be ripping the f*** out of the ball. He would be losing control.

Im not sure if he would have had more success. Federer's game is based on precision, more so than power, so the 90 was perfect for his game. The 95 is wilder from the baseline, so Roger may actually be less consistent with it
