A bit of a problem...

[Mihkel Puhm]

Hello!

Ive got a small problem, i changed from my Baum Espirit to TB ALC. One thing i noticed right away that the blade is now lighter and more stiff.

But the problem is that i think i could use some more softness on my BH, right now i am using Baracuda. Do you guys think that i should try out TenergyFX with 2.1 softness?

I haven't played with Baracuda but I surely do use T05FX as my backhand. It is a bit softer than T05 and offers little bit more control on the backhand whether to play aggressive topspins, openups or blocks. One thing I realized with Butterfly ALC blades is that they tend to change a bit after a month or two (based on how ofter you play) and really become more playable in my opinion. Kind of a break-in period if you understand what I mean. If your blade is fairly new and you have been using Baracuda for long then please do consider to give this setup a bit of time and keep practicing with it. You can revisit your decision later again.
