Blade Vibration Rating

Randy Yee Asked 6 years ago

How should I interpret Blade Vibration?  Is this the feel of a racquet when it contacts the ball?  Is there a preference for more or less vibration, or, is this a matter of personal preference?  What type of player would prefer more or less vibration?  Does the amount of blade "vibration" contribute to the amount of control that a racquet can produce?  I would appreciate your comments.  Thank you.

Hi Randy,

You are right, it is a matter of personal preference.

I think a player that plays with more touch would like more vibration to feel what the bat is doing.  A player that hits hard and flatter may like a harder blade with less vibration.

Vibration and control aren't necessarily linked.
