I currently use 2.1mm Sriver ELs, I'm wondering how 1.9mm Bryce might compare.
What are the advantages/disadvantages of going to a faster rubber with a thinner sponge? |

i think it depends on your arm speed a bit, thicker/slower rubber should have the potential to be faster than a faster/thinner sponge rubber. thinner/faster rubber would have the more apparent speed, like that surprising, uncontrollable burst of speed on contact. the thicker/slower rubber would feel like an allround rubber with a light tap, but full power swing, i believe a thicker slower rubber would ultimately outpower a thinner faster rubber. this is comparative of course, i would never say that a lkt pro xt 2.2mm would outpower the bryce speed 1.9mm. just my opinion.

So are you saying a thicker/slower should have more control? |
