    My modest collection..

    Here are my rackets from left to right:

    -2 Black Knight M-2010 rackets (1 medium and 1 small grip size)
    -2 Yonex MP-99 rackets (both are 3U G5)
    -2 Yonex CAB-30MS rackets (both are 3U G4)

    -Red Prince Duratred Overgrip on the BK and White Wilson Pro Overgrip on the rest (except for a CAB-30MS still in its plastic wrap)

    i'm confused, it seems you like to have 1 racquet of each type strung, and the other unstrung. so how come both your cab30ms are strung? :confused: :D

    Since i've only had my stringing machine for about 2 weeks, I just wasn't ready to string my own rackets just yet.

    They're all strung now :D. The BK racket is now strung at 22 x 24 lbs and the MP 99 is at 23 x 25.5 lbs with HiQua B-696 string. It's makes for good cheap practice string. I was surpised by the pop i got from spanking the bird :p.

    Yah...I like having at least 2 of the rackets i like.. The BK's are real fast and terrific for defense. The MP99 is more offensive (and used for singles) and the CAB30 is my all round racket (singles and doubles).

    That's more than $1,000 USD worth of rackets. 5 are AT 900P and only 1 AT 900T.
