I started to play tennis since 1986. And don’t buy many gears. Cleaning today, found some of my past rackets.
My first one was the most expensive one: a pearl white Prince that cost over $200 in 1986 and it was heavy. The only thing made me buy it was the look. My next one was a radish Thunderbolt that I lost in the park.
Got new grips and re-strung the handles. The red Babolat on the left was purchased in 2011, right after Li Na won her first grand slam in Paris. It’s weak and soft, that I use it when I play with girls. The blue on the right was a hand me down, with adequate power and is my main toy.
The ball holders are my favorite – made in West Germany. They’re solid and looking pretty.
