WILSON BLX Six-One Tour Tennis Racquet

I bought this racquet for my daughters boyfriend as a Christmas gift. It was his favourite present of the season! Thanks for making quality products.

Prior to purchasing this racket, I used a BLX Bold... the addition of a few ounces was a big difference for me. This was a bit heavier, and it took about a week or so to really get used to serving. I cant really get as much power on the serve still, but the control makes up for it I suppose. I get a lot less power on my groundstrokes, but a whole bunch of control... anyway it has helped me win quite a bit of matches. The racket frame has a nice design to it, although Im not too big a fan of black and red.

I was using Head Radical before I bought BLX90. I got good power so Radical is little bouncy to me, so I went for BLX90 for more control. It took a couple of tries to get use to it. But once you get use to it, its super smooth feeling. Better control on the serve spot, and baseline. As for volley, you only need to hold the racquet to the right position and it will do the job for you by absorb most of force leave your wrist steady.

Alright so I bought this racquet for my birthday, and Im happy I did. Ive been playing for 6 years now and out of my many racquets I have to say this one is the best. This racquet has amazing control and power. The feeling you get when you hit the ball right on the sweet-spot is amazing;you know youre going to have an amazing return. The only con about this racquet, if it even is a con, is that Im not used to the leather grip which isnt really a problem but it feels a little different.

Played with the k sixone for about a year loved it but beat the heck out of it and needed a new one. I worried the Blx version would be different and not as good. Glad to say the Blx feels a bit better. Over all both racquets just make you have better stroke machanics, you have to be perfect on every swing and when you're not this racquet lets you feel what went wrong.

I like stiff, tightly-strung racquets. I strung these at 65 lbs with natural gut and they play great. No trampoline, good feel, and best of all, these racuqets transmit substantially less vibration than the previous incarnation, so there must be something to the basalt component since otherwise they seem pretty similar to the K Factor 61. This racquet does not generate any trampoline effect, at least not as tight as I string, so this one is suited to someone that can already hit with power and is looking for more feel and control.

Ive recently switched out from the wilson kfactor k90 series for this one and I gotta say, this racquet lives up to its predecessor and more. The basalt technology definitely gave the racquet a much more dampened feel because its softer so those who prefer more feel to the racquet may want to think it over. All in all, this racquet is great! Think of it as a rebirth to the k90 series with a little bit more.

I recently purchased a Wilson BLX Six-One Tour and I am glad that I made that decision. The racquet is amazing. I was using a Wilson K-tour before and it took me 2-3 days to shift to BLX but now my game has improved. Also, the experience to purchase it from Tennis Express was good; smooth delivery without hiccups and easy online purchase experience.

This BLX frame is a big step up from the last generation of Feds racquet. The BLX gives better feel and touch not like the K factor that was stiff but gave good stability.

I recently parted ways with last year's Kfactor 90 for this racquet. I'm happy with my decision. The primary reason for this upgrade was to drop to a smaller grip size (4 1/2 to 4 3/8). To be honest, I wasn't expecting much of a difference between the two racquets: I attributed the BLX to mostly marketing. However, the BLX does work as advertised: the racquet is definitely muted in comparison to my pervious Kfactor. After, hitting with my new stick for several months now, I've concluded the BLX is an improvement. Overall, the racquet is incredibly precise, muted, and heavy, and I love it. Finally, I recommend using good strings with this racquet - I used a lux/nat gut hybrid.

For someone who has only been playing for a year this is a great racquet. A noticable difference in control. After learning the sweetspot and learning how to play with a smaller head there is a large increase in control and placement of the ball. Overall a great racquet. I recommend this for anyone who knows they will play often because of the price.

I chose this racquet because it's great for a tennis player who basis their game on serves and volleys. It's rigid from the baseline and I recommend it at 60lbs if you want to hit the ball.

I've been using the Wilson Pro Staff Mid since 1995 and haven't found a better racquet for my style of play. After my first session with the BLX I was sold. This racquet does it all. The racquet did not feel heavy. Serve and volly were crisp and powerful. Baseline play was exceptional. Serving was pin point and solid. I'll be replacing my racquets before the next tournament.

Federer's frame is fantastic. It provided me with lots of control and feel. This racquet was great at the net where it offered lots of precision and control. As I age and I'm playing the younger guys that hit balls over my head, I find this racquet helps tremendously because it's a bit heavy.

Since most people buying this are probably coming from previous models, I'll make a personal comparison. This racquet does everything that the K-Factor does and better. My elbow joint doesn't get as much of a shock when hitting the ball compared to the K-Factor (still more shock of course than any other racquet models I've used). My arm doesn't feel like it got in a brawl after hours of use unlike the K-Factor. I get more top spin on this one using the same strings. It feels lighter to wield and more maneuverable. I feel like I have more control and feel with this racquet. Best racquet I've ever used for my style of swing.

I originally played with the K six.one tour and took about a day to get used to the Blx's feel technology. First hitting with it was like playing with a plank of wood or frozen fish but after thinking and anyalysing the specs and 'feel' it is a Superb racquet! This racquet does all the work for you but you must be focused.

I like it, very demanding stick obviously shouldnt be used by 3.5 and below. To get the most of this stick you have to be focused and proper form all the time untill you get used to the 90sq in head.

I like it. It's heavy and it's kinda rough to use but its nice the speed is nice because it goes by momentum.
