Bumpbump.

I came across a suspected pro stock racquet with an i.Prestige PJ, but I'm trying to find out what the actual racquet is. Maybe you guys can help me out. It had...

- full CAP (not definitive)
- brown HEAD collar around the throat above the handle
- the upper-part of the throat doesn't have those grooves indicative of an i.Prestige
- the inside of the throat has the code TK19 or TK10 (couldn't really tell the last number)

I'm leaning towards a PC600, but what are your thoughts? Thanks!

Well the only Prestige before the iPrestige is a PC600 so unless went into the future and brought back from IG Prestige Mid's and painted them up as iPrestiges....

No photo with me at the moment, but I'll be sure to put one up when I get the chance.

I hope to have pictures of the aforementioned racquet soon, but I'd like to run this by the TW community..

It appears to be some kind of PC600 extra length. For comparison, I took some pictures with an actual i.Prestige and a PC600. I tried to take the pallet off, but it seemed really cumbersome to do, so I left it alone. I don't think it's pro stock per se, but in doing some research, apparently Ivanesevic used to use the PC600 XL.

What is this racquet exactly?

That's a Prestige Classic 600. It's too bad you got one with that nasty rubber paint that easily peels off.

Agree. It looks horrendous, but I can look past it just this once. What kind of paint did Head use?

When the i.Prestige paint jobs first came out they used a nasty black rubber paint on the parts that were paint black. Then later on they they changed to a normal hard black matte paint for the black section of the racquet. This was true for the actual i.Prestige Mid and Midplus too that was sold to the public.

So if I wanted to buy at TW a racket closest to the Andy Murray racket, which Head racket should it be? Youtek IG Radical Pro MP (9 or the Youtek IG Prestige 98.

Can someone pls comment on this?

Thx sixone90! I'm looking forward to get the Prestige demo tomorrow. I actually used the WPS 60 85 St Vincent for years and recently switched to WPS 95 cuz I wanted to re-learn my two handed backhand.
