Equipment
Hello Alois,
I had a balanced (weight) bat that I really liked so I bought the exact same setup, and the new one was head-heavy (the blade itself was balanced, but the rubbers made it head-heavy). Although I find balanced bats to be more comfortable, is a head-heavy bat better for attacking?
Are head-heavy, handle-heavy, or balanced bats better for any specific playing styles, or is it just purely a matter of preference?
Hi,
There is no rules here with the weights or distribution of weights of rackets.
It really is a personal preference as to what works best for you. The extra weight or effect of the weight is minimal compared to the technique of your strokes.
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!
