There are many...just customized, not stock. I can even name two in the top 150 that use stock rackets. nblade for me (with lead tape up the ass) switched from the ps85 to the iPrestige.

At the moment however, haven't got as much time for tennis so the 95 is getting a good run. When practicing, nothing beats the fun on hitting with the Emrik. Nothing like the feel of a wooden racquet. StevoTG 12-20-2007, 02:37 PM Upgrade for Christmas, yesterday purchased a Prince Air, I believe it's this one > http://www.tennis-warehouse.com/descpageRCPRINCE-OSCRM.html > only blue.

Tulipe 04-26-2008, 05:00 PM I've just received my new Wilson W-Line Divine Iris Racquet. The design is a kind of crazy (well, it was done by Venus Williams, so you have to expect something excentric), but the main reason why I bought it was that it was an OS (110 sq.). I've played with it three times so far and it feels great in the long rallies and on serve. Just have to get used to volleys a little bit...but I love it! TKCHQ 06-05-2008, 07:53 PM Wilson Hyper Hammer samlemay 07-02-2012, 07:43 PM Wilson 6.1 95 18x20, 2011 model. Been using it for about 7 months. Great plow through, 95 square inches. Trying Golden Set Hex Poly 7 gauge strings for the first time. It had Luxilon strings on it when I got them (2). Before that used Prince O3 Red for about 3 years with Technifibre Black Code strings. I switched to the Wilson 18x20 because I was breaking strings on the Prince due to the 16x18 string pattern. I have a big serve and topspin forehand that was the culprit... Super Djoker 07-03-2012, 08:48 PM Head MX Fire Elite . Very light and great spring of the strings . The Bulldog 07-07-2012, 02:11 AM Dunlop Biomimetic 300 TOUR Absolutely wonderful. Great control, I always feel I can go for the lines with this stick. It's by no means very powerful, but playing aggressively with it is so wonderful. You can generate your own power, and the racquet will keep the ball controlled with the necessary spin. It's great for serving, too. I can get a lot of aces with my 'slider' serve, though my flat serve has lost a lot of pace. It's a great racquet though. abollo 07-08-2012, 12:00 PM I just got a new Head youtech and having another Microgel until I get another Youtech when it's available here again.

Considering changing to head actually... Johnny Groove 07-15-2012, 11:57 AM Pro Staff 85. HKz 07-21-2012, 05:57 AM Pro Staff 85. This is all I have been hitting with the past year or two. I have 3 of them right now, the model Sampras used at the tail end of his carrer and Federer at the beginning of his. The model Roger has at the pic below is the one I have to be exact, not that new one they have now, although I demo'd one and it was not too bad, though it doesn't hit the same IMO. I used to have 5 total, but 2 broke while serving, probably because I string them pretty tight.. Not Sampras tight, but pretty tight. http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w50/vsbabolat/RogerFederer2-1.jpg Johnny Groove 07-28-2012, 09:23 PM This is all I have been hitting with the past year or two.

I also demoed the new Pro Staff 90, not as good, as you said. I string at 45 pounds. Super Djoker 08-10-2012, 04:55 PM I have a Head MX Fire tour now . Still use the other one as well . Both are a good weight for me . Super Djoker 10-16-2012, 10:18 PM Just bought a Wilson Blade Comp . I love it ! so much better than my head racket , great weight a bit heavy but I can hit harder with it and I can serve harder more easy .

I feel quite confortably to play with this racket. Having played a lot of matches during this year now it is quite ruined so I was thinking to buy a new one. Do you have any suggestions for me? Consider that I like rackets of average weight that are good for a powerful hit... denzel 11-30-2012, 11:08 AM Boyfriend or raquet? lol ThomasMC 12-26-2012, 01:12 PM I look for racquets with the best feel, touch and control and I don't look for racquets built for power, not because I don't want power but because the racquets designed to give you power are bad for your arm. I get power by using a more elastic string with a lower tension and I use a flexible racquet with a head light balance. These racquets are typically "recommended" for higher level players but if you are not a higher level player why should you use a racquet that is hard on your arm? I saw a website that lists their top ten arm-friendly racquets and strings and explains the criteria for it in detail http://tenniselbowracquet.com/tennis-racquets NID 02-02-2013, 06:53 AM I look for racquets with the best feel, touch and control and I don't look for racquets built for power, not because I don't want power but because the racquets designed to give you power are bad for your arm.

I saw a website that lists their top ten arm-friendly racquets and strings and explains the criteria for it in detail http://tenniselbowracquet.com/tennis-racquets not sure how this whole flex thing relates to arm friendliness. played with some racquets that are like 53 and had problems, now with 68 and no problems at all. unless you are a pro, you are hitting off center or framing occasionally, so i'd say that torsional stability is more important. i even string with a fairly soft poly and works OK, whereas not even multifilaments saved me while playing with a low flex racquet, which was even heavier. go figure. try some before you buy.
