Tennis Racquet Help?
I’ve been demoing different racquets for a few weeks now. Way back when, I really used to like the Wilson Prostaff 6.1 Classic, which is now discontinued.
Several people recommended I try the Prince Original Graphite based on my liking the Wilson Prostaff 6.1
I did, and I like it a lot. However, I played with a longbody racquet throughout most of high school, and I really liked that extra inch. Turns out that the POG comes in a 28in model, but unfortunately, that longbody model is a 100 sq. in. head size, (I prefer 95 or less).
If the POG longbody were 93 sq in, like the midsize version, I would get it without hesitation, but now I’m reconsidering.
It seems you can still get the Wilson Prostaff 6.1 on eBay (even the stretch ver), and it’s a 95. But I’m wondering if it’s a bad idea to buy a discontinued racquet?
The POG longbody isn’t available for demo. Should I consider it anyway ? Or should I consider the Prostaff 6.1 even though it’s discontinued?
There’s nothing wrong with buying discontinued racquets, especially if you can stock up on a few of them on ebay so that you will have spares.
Racquets have gotten stiffer since the ProStaff classic, and you might like to try something new to see if it suits your game. Wilson makes the Ksix-one 95X, which is essentially the evolution of the original prostaff 6.1. The 95 is for the headsize and the X signifies that it is a long-body 27.5″ racquet. You might have trouble finding this niche model in your local shop, but you can order one to demo through tennis warehouse’s mail-order demo program if you live in the US.
