Your racquet: head-light or head-heavy?

Question

And would you please give also your gender.

Just curious, what percentage of people prefer head-heavy racquets and does the preference depend on the gender.

Myself: head-light, female.

Answer 1

Male! I use Yonex RDS 001.

Slightly head heavy. It helps with my topspin ground strokes at the baseline where I'm more effective. The racquet head is stable at the net as well on volleys. Slightly head heavy also increases the sweet spot on the racquet.

Answer 2

Slightly light-head, female.

I don't like it too light otherwise I don't get enough power out of my strokes and I don't get enough topspin- something I LIVE for.

Answer 3

(Slightly) Head-Heavy, Male. - Helps with my serve and volley.  

Answer 4

Pure drive, i would consider it very head light.

Head light i prefer for head acceleration in addition to control. However when i feel like just pounding the ball with ease i prefer a head heavy racquet. Head light also has easier mobility around the net which i prefer.
