Best rubber for my bat

Equipment

I purchased my racket from you about two years ago and it was a Mark V rubber.  I like the racket, but wondering since my game has improved and more of a offensive player, should I be upgrading to one of the new rubbers.  I understand Mark v was good in its day, now tenergy 5 and others are better.

What is your opinion on time to change.

Thank you,

Bob Bradford

Hi Bob,

I think it may be time to change but difficult to say without seeing some footage of you.

Tenergy is a very good rubber but also expensive.  There are lots of options out there.  We tend to use Rakza 7 as the next step up but there are a lot of rubbers that are similar to this.  They are not too fast but will give you. step up in speed and spin from the Mark V... especially if it a couple of years old.

Tone is in Your Fingers

There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!
