发帖数: 3845 | 2 you should try prestige for sure. I highly recommend it for you too. It's
not as powerful as 6.1 team, but it's one of the best racquet I have found.
I'll probably stick to it for a long time. |

发帖数: 1632 | 5 same - if you are completely used to Wilson's more square grip, you may find
the Head's weird grip to be a little strange initially.
But I got used to it after a while, and it's a very sweet racket, don't
think I'll be switching for a long time as well.

发帖数: 3845 | 6 It's prestige MP. As far as I know.Golfsmith local stores don't usually
carry prestige pro. The price is not listed online or anywhere. It's in
their system. It's a clearance racquet. A while ago, it was still listed as
$140. You got to ask store manager to scan the price if the racquet is in
store, or ask him to search availability in the system. They usually can
request free shipment between stores. Make sure it's the right grip size for
you. |

发帖数: 2009 | 8 Thanks. There is a 15 off 100 or more also, you can buy string to make it
over 100 to use it. Update: that coupon is for online only seems.
The store close to me only have 1/2 and 1/4, I normally use 3/8, will 1/4 be
too small? |

发帖数: 3845 | 11 15 off 100 might not be working for head racquets. I had 20 off 100 from
Tennis Magazine, but their system couldn't accept it.
You got to buy 3/8. If you buy 1/4 and add either heat shrink sleeve or an
additional layer of grip/over grip, it will change the balance of the
racquet. I prefer my backup racquet to be the same specification, so that I
can switch to it without down time.
Again, you can ask store manager to search the system and request free inter
-store shipment.

发帖数: 30533 | 26 //blush, I constantly switch among Head, Prince and Wilson and
never noticed there is a difference...
The only thing though, is that my hand tends to be 磨破 once
I switch a racket. Their grip sizes are different. I have 4 1/4,
4 3/8 and 4 1/2. I feel Wilson's 4 1/4 equals to others 4 3/8.

发帖数: 1632 | 28 why do you constantly switch between all those rackets? why not just use
one and stick with it for a while so you can improve? |

发帖数: 3845 | 29 hehe...if you keep searching for $2 classic racquet from thrift store
without paying attention to fundamentals, such as $1/piece overgrip, your
hand will continue to 磨破. In fact, whenever you get a used/new racquet,
the first thing you should do is to put a new overgrip on it. For me, for
maximum 2 weeks or 5 times play, I need to replace the overgrip. Also
overgrips are different. Some free or cheap ones suck. The best are Wilson
Pro (white), Yonex Supergrap (White) or Tourna Grip (blue). These |

发帖数: 30533 | 30 I am still in the stage of finding the best racket style.
It's like a longer demo period. |

发帖数: 30533 | 31 I did put new overgrips, hehe. But nevertheless, due to different
grip shapes, they push on my palm at different locations, thus the
磨破, //sigh.
I hope one day when my whole palm is full of 老茧，it won't 磨破
any more. |

发帖数: 1632 | 32 if you don't even have your own style yet - what exactly are you trying to
find in a racket?
Take your own advice bah - buy a $25 costco wilson and use it until you feel
like the racket itself is holding you back. |

发帖数: 30533 | 34 The $49.99 Wilson n4 nCode from Costco (under 10oz) has been
holding back since last summer already, hehe. I am eager to
sell it...
Those old craps I bought from thrift stores, although under $10,
were all players rackets back then. They are all heavy and head
light. They feel at least as solid as the Head LM level rackets.

发帖数: 3845 | 35 I tried different brands of racquets with different grip shapes. I never got

get blisters. It's your choice. |

发帖数: 3845 | 40 hehe...who recommend you to buy that Costo one? ... It's not going to hold

someone totally new to tennis. |

发帖数: 30533 | 41 I am still hoping to get $30 back, 555. I will try craiglist.
It does look PP though (with a kick-ass bag) and it's in absolute
perfect condition.
I also need to sell my Head TiS1. Also perfect condition. I even
spent $20 to get it re-strung. Big mistake, //sigh. That racket
just need to touch a ball and the ball will be out... |

发帖数: 1632 | 42 ah, then just buy a cheap regular player's racket - how'bout this one for $
70? For someone who claims to be a 2.2740928, I really don't think you need
to worry about THAT racket holding you back, right?
http://www.tennis-warehouse.com/Head_Liquidmetal_Radical_Midplus/descpageRCHEAD-LMRAD.html
I think it's a fun hobby digging around for old cheap rackets - maybe you'll
find a gem - and that's both cool and rewarding.
But if you want to improve your game - switching between 3,4 different
racket |

发帖数: 30533 | 43 I have this racket ah, actually two, hehe.
Although it's good enough for my level, I am able to tell the
difference between it and a, say, Wilson Mid85 (which should
feel much more similar to a BLX90 than a Head Radical). So
if I like the Wilson Mid more, I may consider to buy a BLX90
in the future. That's the direction I am trying to go.

发帖数: 1632 | 45 lol man you must have WAY more rackets than I... Just remember that if you
chase gear too much - it's a slippery slope.
Every year there will be new models - and they will feel 'slightly'
different - even if that difference is 99% psychological.
I've never used the mid85 so I can't comment on it - but I kinda doubt it
will feel similar to the blx90 - if the blx90 is very similar to the k90
then it would feel pretty similar to my ps6.0 - which, judging from the beam
design should be pretty diffe |
