STrings are more important than frames for the overall wide effect on anyone's game. It's all about the interaction/vibrational effect. Frame balance, swing wt., twist wt., total mass, RA, pattern, etc. don't matter as much. A good stringer who knows your game can do magic for it. Greater fun and joy is what it's all about for a service oriented job.

Then you have the guys who will ask, "So a wood frame with poly will feel the same as a babolat pure drive?": No, and it's irrelevant. No one is playing with wood frames anymore, nor should they. Soon enough strings will be irrelevant. Force fields coming right up. When the battery goes dead in your frame, the ball will sail right through! Voice controlled to boot no doubt: "Power. Touch. Short. Spin. Heavy ball."
