WILSON Pro Staff Six.One 95 BLX Tennis Racquet

Most probably one of the best 3 racquets out there ... with the 90 and the 100. Requires an appropriate amount of intensity while playing.

The Wilson ProStaff 6.1 95 BLX sure feels as one candidate for the best racquet of 2012. Ive been using Wilson Pro-open N-code then BLX seriesfor 4 or so years now and shifted to the ProStaff 6.1 95 over the weekend and the transition is a relatively easy one than I expected as all specs are different between the 2 Wilsons except for the grip size and string pattern. This 6.1 95 seems suited for the all court game; I found it easier to hit offensive ground strokes, particularly on the backhand wing, volleys as well as half volleys are quick and options for length and angles are easy to find. Its quick on the return game and drop shots/lobs are easy to dial in. I would have rated it a 5 but am still looking for my serve. Maybe in another week.

I just demoed the racquet and it plays very similarly to my Presitge Microgel Mid. This racquet is solid from all parts of the court from serve to volleys. At the baseline it has both great control and power is accesible thanks to the open string pattern. Id try a hybrid stringing with it as my demo had NXT string it in. Id give this a demo its my favorite out of the ProStaff Six-Ones.

It looks like I may have a new racquet for this 2012 season. My main racquet right now is the Prestige Pro and when I grabbed this racquet I knew I had to give it a try. The racquet was a little to light stock so I added about 15g of lead at 3 and 9 and the whole dynamic of the racquet changed. I got plenty of plow with great control. Highly recommend this racquet for players looking for the old classic feel or a player who wants control without sacrificing too much power. Im definitely going to switch for the 2012 tennis season.
