Sup Baddies. Lately I've been carrying 5 or 6 racquets in my bag because I feel that on different days depending on how I feel, I require different racquets to play my best. On days where I'm full of energy, zipping up and down, left and right, focused with a good nights sleep behind me, I'll use my head heaviest/stiffest racquet. On days when I feel lazy, or just OK in energy, I need a slightly less but still head heavy medium-stiff racquet to get a good smack outta it. On days where I'm sloth incarnate, I go for a balanced, medium flex racquet. Etc etc. Anyone else experience this? Is it all in my head? Or am I simply not pro enough to stick with one racquet? Just thought I'd share that. Game on.
Yep. Me too. Also you can adjust your hand gripping point higher or lower by 1-2-3 cm depending on your energy level and whether you're playing attack or defence.
me too. i blame that on my inconsistency. but it is true, some days, some racket feels awesome, another day, it feels like a thud.
I switch for what I'm playing either singles, level or mixed but I prefer light medium flex rackets no matter what I'm playing
I rotate so that they all get some attention. But sometimes I do change quicker if I felt like I should not have lost that game.... But I do agree some days some rackets feel better than other days!
I play the same racket (i.e. the same model) all day. Singles, Mixed and Doubles. Some players refuse to change the model for years, I can't see any advantage changing it on a daily basis...
