Hi,
i used to play Tennis quite a lot during my University days, so 20 years ago.
And after a long break and family time, I resumed playing now regularly (i'm 45y) and I'm re-using my old and beloved Wilson Pro Staff 5.1. See my own pictures, and sample model url:

My main question is what kind of similar (look and feel) raquet could I buy as a spare (or main?) for tennis matches. Regarding level, I would say im an intermediate player.
I looked into it the Pro Staff family models but I must admit I'm overwhelmed by all the Pro Staff model series I missed in the meantime and don't know what model to buy. i don't mind second hand or new.
I love my good old Wilson Pro Staff and would like a second raquet that is similar so I'm not too much disturbed if I have to swap during a match, so ideally also a Pro Staff I guess. I'm not sure how I was playing 20 years ago, but I find my old Pro Staff a bit rigid on the elbow and wrist, and though I have a lot of control, it is lacking a bit in power. Though control is what i like I assume as I played many years table tennis in competition.
So I'm curious what a more modern Technology racket has to offer.
Thanks a lot for your help !
