Out of the Tour G 330, Blade 98 18x20 (add weight to it), RF97, and Pure Strike Tour, what do you think would be the best one to pick? Any other frames you think would be better?
I know I will demo, but I just wanted to know what you thought before I demo.

I played with all of the above, except for the Blade 93. It's really hard to compare. From what you have used, I imagine a frame with the best feel would be the best for you. Among the frames you have mentioned, I think the Tour G 330 might work out the best for you, though they are all known to hit heavy balls. I think the blade 98 might be more well-around frame, but it lacks the special something of other three frames, imo.

@AHJS,

For the closest feel to your current 93, I would go with a weighted up 98, try to match the current specs of your 93. Another frame worth trying would be the Yonex Tour F 93, it has some good, natural plow through but is a stiffer frame then the Blade.

Thanks Marco. I think I'm trying to get away from the midsize head so anything 95 or under I'm not really into. I agree, the 98 will be an easy transition.
