As with all racquets, I'm sure it be replaced/refreshed in due course, but I can't see that it will be before 2014.....

As for the slight price reduction, I think you're reading too much into it. It's only $10 less than the BLX90 and the BLX 6.1 for example. All retailers will trim prices slightly from time to time to stimulate sales.

This is a great playing stick. Not perfect, Wilson QC remains an issue and personally, I'd prefer marginally more flex in the throat, but still a great playing stick. The problem Wilson have is that they've underestimated how many people buy racquets based on how they look rather than how well they play. Personally, I think its absurd that people would place looks above playing characteristics, but if you're in business, you have take into account market preferences.

I'm currently playing with the Pure Drive GT+ and it feels very hollow...how does the Wilson compare in this aspect?
