http://bit.ly/XTPresPro The Prestige Pro is a livelier, more modern variant of the classic Prestige MP. With its open 16x19 string pattern and slightly thicker, more angular beam, this stick combines a powerful and spin-friendly response with the surgical precision for which the Prestige franchise is known. Like earlier versions of the Prestige Pro, this update has a fairly high swingweight (331 RDC), giving it impressive plow-through and stability for a sub-12 ounce racquet. The head light balance keeps the Pro whippy - a fact that should help aggressive players crank up the stroke speed in the service of pace and spin. Thanks to the latest generation of Graphene (Graphene XT), this stick comes with even more mass in the tip, making it easier to create a heavier ball on full cuts. The Prestige Pro also features Head’s Dynamic String Pattern featuring denser string spacing in the center (for control) with wider spacing off-center for comfort. From the baseline the Prestige Pro offers a lively yet precise response. Big swings find their target without much fuss. Experienced ball strikers will find the needed mass to drive the ball through the court, and the high level of control should enable some very ambitious targeting. On volleys this stick offers a nice compromise between speed and stability, with plenty of put-away power for finishing points. Finally, the easy targeting should prove dangerous in the hands of aggressive servers. Head has added another impressive chapter to the Prestige Pro. Intermediate and advanced players looking for a lively and spin friendly player’s racquet should give this one a serious look.
