Hi guys

I am a player with a tactical style who likes to use placement to get an advantage in a game.
I am looking for a new racket that suits my style.
I recently played with my friends armortec 900 technique and really love the way it handles and feels.
I really like the throat heavy design of the racket.

But the racket is really expensive and out of my budget.

Is there any other racket which is throat heavy or good for placement?

Please help

Cheers

Amit

Ah, that's an easy one. Just read Paul's review of the VT5 and VT7. I play a AT900 with TI65@9.5Kg and recently bought a VT7 for my son. They play just the same, but the VT7 is half the price of an AT900. If my 900 breaks, you can guess what my next one will be Wink

Cheers, ED

Can’t agree more with you guys. VT5 or VT7 should do the job very nicely.

Hello everyone

I went forward with the racket test and really liked both the rackets

For me the VT7 felt a bit better than the Arc7 as it offered a little bit more power and was also a bit more accurate so i went forward and bought it

It is a lovely racket

Thank you very much for your advice on the racket everyone

Cheers

Amit
