I made a post a while back concerning the Wilson Pro Staff 6.6 Stars and Stripes racket. I'd been playing with it for quite some time without a back-up racket. Just recently, I purchased the Wilson PS 6.0 95 racket thinking it was a comparable racket. After hitting with it for a little over a week now, it just feels a little heavier and I just don't feel like the same player. My swings just feel a tad sluggish and I'm lacking the zip that I had with the 6.6. I noticed the 6.0 has better feel around the net. In addition, it seems to have a lot of power when hitting the sweet. But the 6.6 seems a little more forgiving and my return game is a lot better. Obviously this may perhaps be all mental. In addition, I'm thinking there may be an adjustment period. between using different rackets.
My question is to you guys, should I stick with the 6.0 for a little longer and see how things go? Or should I perhaps look elsewhere and start demoing other rackets? Lastly, I was thinking of instead getting a back-up for the "stars and stripes" since I liked that racket the most (even though the racket is discontinued and very rare)?
Currently, I'm probably a 4.5 player but I definitely feel I have the potential to improve and perhaps move up. Any suggestions or input would be greatly appreciated.
