The IntelliTour takes some while…"
Thomas C replied to Tim Prapong's discussion 'Question: To use a stiffer/slightly lighter racquet or a flexible/heavier racquet?'"Flexible heavy racquets are ideal for control, feel, touch and avoiding arm injuries.

I'm sure this could run in a few categories:
1) Racquet freak: Gotta try the latest racquets, demo ten racquets when they come out at the start of the year. End up getting six of the same, then an itch happens. You buy a different one, then have to sell the six when that new one plays better. Then…

Thanks for the compliment Tim. Since joining Tennisopolis, I have always found your comments to be level-headed and sincere.

I think it will be the difference between losing in 2012 and winning in 2013.
