having my current raquet (photon xl pcv) in repair i was thinkin of lookin into a spare to use should i need to repair it again i realy dont have a budget but dont wana spend more then 200$ ill go as high as 250 but it would depend on the raquet that will make me even consider it. my style of play is as folllows i will smash almost every lift or clear that i am certain will go over the net but i like to be able to defend against any smash that comes my way i would prefer a raquet that is at least 3-4U and i dont care the brand if i missed any thing dont hesitate to ask thanks for you help
You play similar to me. AT900T (or clone of it) would be perfect for you. It's head heavy for smashes, but quick for defence.
Use an aluminum racket. then when your used to the weight switch back to photon your swing speed would be OVER 9000
