Largest sweet spot but softest feel Which blade

Post by Spin Top »

I am looking for a composite blade that will give me the biggest sweet spot but also has soft feel
And not a hard feel like carbon
Many players said ALC .
Everyone uses Butterfly Viscaria it seems
I tried but it also felt sort of hard and my loops seem less spinny than all wood blades

I do not want to spend a few $100 and buy a blade and find out something else
Any suggestions appreciated

Der MaterialSpezialist have the blade The Wall Carbon, it's lightweight with soft carbon so not a lot of speed but better control and a little more of speed than all wood The Wall. Forget brands like BTY, Stiga, Donic, Nittaku, etc. all are made for power attack loopers not for defenders.

If you aren't a defender and want to use fibers try inner blades for other brands cheaper than BTY, like Donic, etc.
