I used to use Feron squash bats in the days before synthetics. I recall the heads being quite small, requiring a precision I no longer have. I wouldn't mind hitting with a wooden racquet to recall the feel. Same with tennis. Dunlop and Slazenger. A whiff of the past.
I am a huge tennis fan and player. I also love old wooden rackets, and on ocassion, I play with one. I truly feel that the game lost something once they were abandoned.

ReplyDeleteRichard,
ReplyDeleteI believe you are referring to lawn tennis rackets, which are not in the picture. Real tennis has never been played with anything but wooden rackets.
Love this picture!
