Equipment
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.
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!
