Our Experience With the Head Liquidmetal 8

Advanced beginners and intermediates have quickly taken a liking to the Head Liquidmetal 8, one of the more recent successes in the wildly popular Liquidmetal line. Owners brag about the racquet’s light weight, generous head size, and great mix of control and power.
With an extremely light weight of just 9.4 ounces (only slightly above half a pound), the racquet is amazingly lightweight, giving its users ease in the swinging department. Volleys are exceptionally easy due to the fast swing speed of the racquet and a big sweet spot makes it easy to get the best part of the racquet on the ball.
While this racquet is suited for intermediate players, it lends itself well to advanced tactics, spin being one of them. This gives the racquet nice longevity, as it might take some time before a player grows out of it.
The racquet’s strings are very conducive to topspin and slice shots, and Head’s unique “Total Sweetspot Construction” is largely responsible for this. This new technology will probably find its way to other racquets to come out of the Liquidmetal line in the future.
While most lightweight racquets with big heads help out big time in the power department, the Liquidmetal 8 does this successfully without sacrificing too much control. Many of its owners cite this quality and view it as one of their favorite elements about the racquet.
The ball will not fly off your racquet like it would with other racquets with similar specifications. This racquet is great for the player wanting to make the next progression without breaking the bank.
We see this racquet as the ideal 2-3 year racquet for someone looking to rapidly advance their game. If you’re a more casual player and looking to play a few times per year, this is the type of racquet that could easily find its place in your life for many years to come.
The Head Liquidmetal 8 is overall one of the best oversized player racquets you can find in a nice price range.
