Hi all,
I'm new here and hope I'm posting in the right spot.
I'm an intermediate player looking to put together my first customer bat after using a Palio 2 Legend of the last few years. I've been overwhelmed by the amount of choice with respect to blades, rubbers and sponges and would like to make an informed choice about constructing a bat that suits my style.
I would describe my style as follows: an offensive forehand that also like spin and good control; a defensive backhand that likes to chop and negate spin with high control.
My budget is circa £120. I have been warned not to go for extremely fast rubber or blade as I won't have the control to keep it on the table.
I am thinking then an allround bat with an offensive and defensive rubber.
My friend uses DH 360 rubbers on both sides but his game is different to mine in that he is more defensive and tricky, whereas I like to attack and smash when the opportunity presents.
Many thanks in advance!
