The heavy rackets aren't bad, I have one from the '50s and it's very well balanced. I don't really care for the feel of the lighter rackets now.

Not bad at all. It wasn't as slow back then as I thought it would be. And the trick shots were very much a part of the game back then. Cool.
5 ounce rackets!? Ouch!
