Don't bring back the wood racket

I was reading an old article on SI.com by Howard Brody called "Don't bring back the wood racket"  Here is a quote from the article..."There is general agreement that the new racket technology has allowed the game to change. Beginners find it easier to learn to play tennis. They reach a level of competence at which they enjoy the game sooner, rather than give up in disgust because they think the sport is too hard to learn. The average recreational player seems to get more enjoyment out of tennis when playing with the new equipment because it allows them to play better. The women's professional game is now an exciting, hard-hitting sport. These improvements in tennis are things we do not want to give up. "

I remember playing with a wood racket over 30 years ago, but I'm not sure I would every want to go back.  I think that the new racket technology allows more people to learn how to play tennis easier and I think Roger Federer would be just as deadly with a wood racket.

Maybe we should bring back the tennis outfits they wore in the late 70s instead of the rackets.
