Which Racquet: Babolat or Wilson?

[monty2589]

Well I just demoed 3 racquets today which are the Babolat Pure Drive Roddick standard, Wilson nTour Two, and the Wilson nBlade. I'm currently using a O3 Tour. I just don't feel like I have a lot of control with it or power but that could just be me. Well I hit a little with them today and I definitly like the Babolat and the nTour. I was crushing my groundstrokes with the nTour. I don't know about the nBlade. I'm gonna go up to my coaches house tomorrow and hit off his ball machine. I think that will be the best way to tell which one I like. Well what do you guys think? Any comments welcome.

Try to do a small game with them. I find thats most helpful as you get pushed to do winning shots.

I really like the nBlade. I bought two of them after a demo. The racquet is quite sensitive to string guage and tension though. If it's strung "incorrectly" it can feel like a pig swingwise and you won't produce any power either.

Well I hit with the nBlade today and I didn't like that much. Right now I'm stuck between the Pure Drive Roddick and the nTour. I hit the Pure Drive Roddick a lot today and my game seemed to improve a lot especially on the backhand side. I've still got the rest of the week to decide so I'll hit with them some more and make my decision later.
