    Hi,

    The two APACS threads have gone off the scale lately. There is good information in there but very hard to find.

    Can we please have someone who is quite knowledgeable on the APACS products to put all the rackets in buckets?

    ie. defensive, allround, offensive,
    head heavy, balanced, headlight,

    APACS have many different lines of products and it's getting difficult to know why the different lines exist...

    Thanks

    Just read through the pages of the Apacs threads and you find what you are looking for.

    You can also look through Apacs Canada for racket specs.

    There are 71 pages in one thread and even more in the other. It's not the most efficient method.

    I did,

    very difficult to work out which what the difference between the AMP, Furious, Tantrum and Lethal are. There for a simple summary would greatly assist people.

    Hi I agree with you.
    Here's a suggestion, somebody here or from APACS should produce a chart like:
    http://www.sotxsports.co.uk/Rackets/Weight list.htm

    If it was produced by someone or a group here, it could be extended for all brands and maybe filters could be applied to anyone using the chart to look at only all the 3u rackets, or all the head heavy rackets etc.

    Let me know your thoughts.
    Thanks

    Hi,

    I second such an exercise.
    Trying search and reading every single page is almost impossible and very time consuming.

    If we all contribute by putting just rackets review into a table on one particular thread and have all discussion on another thread, it will help to minimise the long reading to search for a review.

    We can have separate thread for different manufacturer.
    I started something similar on APACS some weeks ago but no responce
    see:

    and discussion at

    Thanks my 2 cents
