  Hadraw Shield

  

  I used to use the Matsushita Pro Model, but struggled with how hard it is to get spin on the plastic ball, and since I'm a chopping-style player who relies heavily on backhand chops with long pips, I was looking for a blade that would bring out the best in long pips.
  It sounds contradictory to say it keeps the bounce down while still letting you counter-attack, but with this blade, the quality of techniques like the short game and topspin drives really just comes down to your own physical ability. If you want to attack, these days there's tension rubber, and you can just go with a thicker sponge.
  Both pushes and blocks can be controlled nicely without bouncing too much, and while people say modern choppers need to attack, I think a blade without much "character" like this one might actually be exactly what a chopper needs.
  I think it's a blade that just reflects the rubber's own characteristics as they are.

  If I had to complain about something,
  it costs over 10,000 yen despite being a 5-ply blade,
  and the wood density of the grip is low, so it gets scuffed and dirty easily — that's the downside.

  以前は松下プロモデルを使っていましたが、回転のかかりにくいプラスチックボールに悩んで、カット主戦型なのでバックカットの使用率が高い粒高を活かすラケットを探していました。
  弾みを抑えてつつ、反撃も出来るというと矛盾ですが、このラケットは台上、ドライブ等の技術のクオリティーが身体能力そのまま反映される感じです。攻撃がしたければ、今の時代はテンションラバーがありますし、スポンジの厚みを厚くすればよい。
  ツッツキもブロックも弾み過ぎず良い感じにコントロールでき、現代のカットマンは攻撃だと言われますが、この特徴のないラケットみたいなのがカットマンには必要なんじゃないでしょうか？
  ラバーの特性をそのまま反映させるラケットだと思います。

  あえて不満を言うなら
  5枚合板なのに値段が1万円を超えるのと
  グリップの木の密度が低く、擦れて汚れやすいのが難点です。
