HEAD Youtek IG Speed MP 16X19 Tennis Racquet

I love my new racquet!

Superior control and feel. Very easy on the arm! Very happy with my purchase.

I currently use Wilson Six One tours and have been looking for something with a slightly larger sweetspot where I can maintain a little accuracy. Have to say, not sure what some of the other reviewers are talking about with regard to heaviness, difficulty volleying, etc but I guess it could all be relative. This is a much lighter racquet for me. I thought groundies were solid with a noticable amount of spin over my current racquet. What really won me over, however, was my serve. This stick is much more head light and the snap I had on my serve was amazing. Played two matches over the weekend with it and felt like my serve was untouchable with an incredible amount of kick on my second serve. Volleying was solid as well. Took a little getting used to but as Im a 4.0+ moving up and playing more 4.5+ players now, this racquet allows me to get around much easier when the pace picks up, particularly at net. I liked the touch and manuverability. FWIW - I also tested the radcal MP ov

I purchased this racket for my daughter for Christmas and she loved it!

I tried a plethora of different racquets and I even tested the youtek ig speed for 2 weeks before I bought it. I needed a racquet with more control than what I was playing with at the time and I could not be happier with the play of this racquet. It provides me the needed control and I little pop.

This racquet brought my groundstroke back to the effortless ease of yesterday. It took me a few games to figure out that over thinking my swing was not going to give positive results. A smooth consistent stroke will send the ball to the baseline with perfect topspin dropping right on the line. Accuracy is right on. The ball never sprays. Taking balls out of the air is a different story. I have found that my standard “punch” volley or mid court out-of-the-air slices result in the ball dribbling into the net. Really swinging through the ball is required for anything out of the air. This has been a tough adjustment because my doubles game in particular is very slice heavy.

I prefer to play from the baseline, hitting balls with lots of pace and topspin. This racquet makes it extremely easy to do just that. Spin, as well as power, comes easily. I feel like the sweet spot is large enough to handle those off center shots without sacrificing power too. When I do venture to the net, my volleys actually feel fairly crisp and Im able to hit them with good depth and placement. The control I get is outstanding also so I feel that Im able to place the ball anywhere in the court.

No wonder this racquet is used by the number one player in the world,its the best racquet I have ever used. This racquet has great feeling and control and even the power is good enough. Its a very smooth and fluid racquet.

This racquet is amazing -- great feel, ball seems to stay on the strings longer like everything is happening in slow motion, strung it at 60lb. Control is a non issue, power is there when you want it and the racquet is light and well balanced and doesnt torque if the ball is hit off center. Tennis Express delivered it ahead of time and at a great price. Thanks Tennis Express!

I bought 2 of these last year for my 17 year old while I stayed playing with Yonex RDIS 100. I then recently decided to try his racquet out for a few days since my racquets needed re-stringing. I can say that I really liked it. I was really able to kick my serves out really well and maintian a good consistent baseline rally. Touch shots are better with Head that with Yonex at least for me. Im now ordering 2 more and couldnt be more exited. Of course hell get the new and Ill get his old ones. You know how that goes :.

My recent racquet was Babolat and I wanted to try this racquet out and I officially made this my main racquet. I love it!

When I purchased the Youtek 16x19, it had a fantastic look and feel. Its slices are unbeliveable and has great shot placement on the court. The serve is a bit challenging at times, hard to hit the sweetspot at times, but when it does...perfect. The only thing I would prefer more is power, strains the arm after awhile. Got Babolat Xcel power on it. Gives great pop and slicing. Loves this racquet and cant wait to purchase another Youtek! Great job Head!

After about 10 years off from the sport it was time for a new racket. Tried this one using the very convenient demo program and it was a clear winner. Control is good. Very smooth feel and has plenty of power for me. All in, Ive been very happy with it.

The racquet is pretty amazing! After years using Babolat ones, Ive never been so satisfied with a racquet + string set currently Luxilon Adrenaline Rough.

THe IG Speed IM impressed me from the start. Very solid yet maneuverable throughout that swing. On the baseline it performed admirably and allowed strong shots with great control.

I love this racquet! My ground strokes have improved and even though it is a little head heavy it feels very light. I get great speed and spin on the ball and it is easy to maneuver. I really love the feel and I am more confident coming to the net with this racquet for drop shots and slicing. I love the string pattern and speed. Would recommend for players who dont need power but want to improve their game.
