Nope, was doing some very aggressive rallying and played a set.
I felt no difference in any of the 4 rackets. 93, 100, O-ports, 14x16, 18x20,
whatever
As usual, internet overhypes everything regarding gear.
I also find the worse the player is, the more gear obsessed they are.

Dartagnan64, not talking about you)
But, Pros will use any racket that pays them, they barely care.
Yet 3.0 players are the most gear obsessed, thinking they've found the holy grail to their garbage strokes.
As for me, I will pick the grommets since O-ports are apparently a nightmare to string.
I will pick 100 over 93, since I already have a 93 POG, and if most pros can use 100, so can I.
Now, I can go back to focusing on lessons and my strokes, which is 99% of the equation.
