10:41 Where "I carry 4 rackets ~" starts.

Minimize variables to improve consistency. My bag has three identical racquets. Here in Texas, we sweat a lot. When a grip gets slippery, put it aside, let it dry. Pick up one of the other identical racquets. Keep rotating them and you'll usually have a dry grip. Different balls play differently. The wind blows inconsistently. The sun moves in the sky but my racquet will always play the same.

Great list. Things I carry that are not on your list -TWO smaller towels. I like having a dry towel when one gets drenched -Sandals. Oooh the joy of taking off hot shoes and wet socks and feeling the breeze -Nail clippers. Mostly for cutting string, but sometimes nail maintenance too -Two extra shirts. I like a fresh shirt for that third set, and a completely dry one to wear home -Cash. Some cash lives permanently in the bag. In some countries you have to tip the ball boys/girls who dont take cards -Water/drink bottles. You probably have them too

My opinion is most of us only need 2 rackets. I have used this approach for 4 decades and I think I only once had a situation where both rackets had broken strings. If you play a lot and play a lot in competition, I could see getting 3 frames but no one needs more than 3 rackets. I also have a stringer so if I know I have 2 or 3 league matches in the next week, I can string up a 1 or 2 frames. You can always keep a 3rd older model in your bag in the rare event that you break strings on your 2 current model frames. More than 2 frames is a waste of money in my opinion. Funny, the guy that owns a pro shop says you need 4 frames.

I only carry 2 racquets in my bag, and they're not even the same model lol. To be fair though, I'm not sensitive enough to be bothered by the difference.

People think im crazy carrying dif tensions... but it makes a big difference.... thnks for reassuring me

I'm good with two of the same racket as a weekend warrior. Mainly to have one backup and to also allow me to go longer without visiting the shop for stringing. No particular reason why but Id rather string two rackets once every two months than string one racket once a month. I'm not going to mess with all those varying tensions I'll just run what I like and if I get tired that just means I need to improve my fitness. Got two Yonex Ezone 98s and I'm happy especially with their great QC.

I have 5 racquets in my bag, I play with the Wilson Profile Kuebler 95sq. I love these racquets and I have love playing with them. I haven’t found a racquet that is close to these racquets. Great video my friend.

Great channel / info . Love the colour of the Confi 3.0. I just cannot play at those tensions, I’m playing with Lux Alu Power in a Pure Strike 98 16x19 at 57/54. I like all my rackets strung at the same tension so I know how the ball comes off the racket each time and I get them re-strung every 2 weeks.

Good point on having multiple frames with different tension. Personally I carry two matched pair just so that I can switch between them once my grips soaks with sweat. Been wanting to see vidoes regarding personal equips with details from a fellow player. Keep the vids comming.

Use tourna grip original if you sweat a lot, it helps!

What specifically are you looking to accomplish with the various strips of lead on the Clash? I have a Clash 100 with a little lead at 12 o’clock to bring up the swingweight (and a few grams in the handle to compensate). To my eye that looks like a lot of lead on an already stable racquet!

I also carry 4 racquets. 3 Head Radical Pro and 1 customized Head Speed MP. Stings and tensions vary between them. Reasons: Need to change when the grip gets too sweaty. Need to change when I get fatigued. Need to adapt to a hard hitter or a soft hitting pusher. Also some days my serve or strokes in general are just off and a shaped string with more bite helps or a looser tension. Needless to say also as backup for string breakage.

Emergency racquet :) I have one of those as well, a stock version. Love your videos.

Starting to be a regular viewer. Good stuff. My request is for a playsight data on poly vs natural gut. Get a 4.5 guy, same racquet, let’s say clash or blade, and I wanna see the spin on forehand on playsight. Can you do?! 👊

Seriously Wilson needs to step up their bag game, idk why a lot of companies are moving over to duffel type style of bags.

i carry 4 racquets in my bag. yamaha secret 100, yamaha secret ex and 2 wilson pro staffs from my collegiate days. I have been demoing the wilson clash 100 and really enjoying the way it plays. a little light for my taste but i do appreciate the softer feel. nothing a little lead tape won't fix. i may have to retire all of my old racquets and switch to the clash.

Very nice and informative video. I usually have 3 of the same. I have one strung with poly and the other two strung with synthetic gut. The one with poly, strung 2 lbs. tighter than the ones strung with syn. gut. For several years, I bought 3 of the same racquet because of chronic string breaking. Nowadays I don't play as much and buying 2 of the same makes more sense. I used to be all about the boardy feel of high tension strung racquets, 65+ lbs, syn. gut. Now, I'm stringing my racquets in mid to low 50s. Took me months to get used to those low tensions. Anyways, I'm primarily carrying only 2 of the same racquet in my bag. 1 strung with poly and the other synthetic gut. I usually play with the one strung with synthetic gut. I play with it until it breaks or feels "dead". For the past few years, I am breaking less strings. I will use my other racquet strung with poly if I am dealing with better competition; otherwise it's just there as a spare.

I love this bag. I carry a lot of crap for the simple reason that I like to. I like playing with different rackets not because I’m a pro but, I like to change things up and I also have a hard time walking away from a good looking racket. Having my “collection” and all of my accessories all in one bag just makes me happy. Maybe he feels the same way. I will use this bag until it falls apart, It suits me and it obviously suits him.

What's the difference between the solinco confidential 2.0 to the luxilon smart which you recommend for clash rackets.

There was a tennis coach I know whose tennis bag weighed almost a 100 lbs. In addition to 10 rackets, clothes, shoes, cones and markers, tool kit, towels, balls, toiletries, camera tripod, first aid kit, spare strings, grips and overgrips, rope, books and brochures; he also had therapy equipment - exercise rubber bands, gyro balls, massage roller and spring hand strengthener.

Hi, on next video can you explain how dos you customise your racket allí steps please

I like shock absorbers but sometimes I don’t use them so I can feel the ball better too. That is a lot of lead tape and it totally changes the racket! I can’t imagine it feeling good. I like to add weight to my pro staffs but I’m getting older and can’t handle the RF type weight but I use at least the reg pro staff weight 11oz +.

I just use a single racquet and don't have a second. It seems a little excessive to carry multiple racquets if you can only use one at a time. The shoes are my everyday shoes. That's the contents I carry to the court other than the balls. My goal is to play in a league and become 4.0-4.5.

you should try toalson's quick dry grip its the best overgrip for me.

I'm sure you have experimented with string gauge. What string gauge have you settled on? For years I hit with synthetic gut, various brands, 16 gauge. I finally decided to experiment with poly and ended up with Hyper-G 19 gauge at 52 pounds. I have three racquets in the bag, Pacific Raptor, all stock -- 4 3/8 grip, vibration dampener, Dunlop overgrip. It's amazing how the tech has changed since I started playing -- pipe wrench Jack Kramer 4 5/8, Fairway grip to my super light small grip Raptors.

@pproust My thoughts exactly. There is no point in a recreational player carrying 4 rackets to the courts. I've seen it at clubs too many times over the years. The worst is most of those cats can barely play. I don't know how well this dude plays but if this shop is his full time job, I can't see him having the time to play a great deal. I can see him turning up at his country club bending over his bag rummaging thru, picking up two rackets, tapping them together 'listening' to the strings, picks up another does the same etc etc so as far as I'm concerned it is pretentious ' look at me ' bull shit.

I carry different racquets, different tensions. Depending how I feel also.

Never thought about multiple sticks in that way. Makes a lot of sense tho. Thanks

Did you carry Uniqlo clothing in your store? Thank you CR

Gotta learn to use the two racquets I have. Mess with string tension later

I've had the same bag for 20 years.

I am agree with your view and opinion with the actual clash bag it is for carrying a dog or a cat..

Have you bought 3 of the same racquet and they all swing and feel different? Ugh! I used to own 3 2011 Babolat Pure Storms and they all feel swing and feel different. Frustrated. Then I switched to Pure Drives and I was really lucky that all 3 purchased frames swing and feel the same. Other racquets where I got lucky, 3 of the same, Wilson Hammer 5.2 Classic; Wilson H Tour 95; Wilson N:Code Tour Two. Babolat Pure Storm and Aeropro Drive were failures.

It really depends on weather, grip, sweatyness of hands, if you are string breaker or not. Also could because he is stringer he wants to test at different tensions so he could give proper feedback to customers too
