I know all this Head TGK.XXX.....are very nice racquets, maybe with nice feel , but when we talk about Plow Through , slice, serve and others, I take this poor quality control, plus poor paint job and more imperfections from all this Wilson Family.

I've been a Prestige Mid user for the past nine years but I was missing that great Wison box beam feel from my old PS85s (I was too green to truly appreciate them at the time).
I've been planning switching back to Wilson (which I've always considered to be the quintessential S&V sticks) but the K-factors I tested were a bit too heavy to swing and harsh on my wrist. After reading about those new BLXs - which seem to be more confortable, light swinging and arm friendly - I finally deemed the time to be right. Time will tell if it was a good move but I´m confident that the change will instill new life in my attacking game. The slight psychological boost of playing with frames custom built for volleys will be an added bonus. As for the poor qualite control... that at least helped my getting a lower swing weight pair with specs much closer to my old PS85s.

have you tried any of the TGK line? you may not say that if you try one. Or you may hate them, all depends on your personal taste.

Yes,
I was playing with TGK.238.2= Ok, but nothing for the other world, good feel, nice control, but never get the plow through like PS 85 or BLX 90. Also, TGK 237.2, TGK.237.2, PT 57 A. Still I more dangerous with this Wilson Sticks. |

Well plow through would be determined by where the lead is. These rackets are intended to be weighted up a certain way, It seems like you needed more lead at 12 o'clock

You can change the plow thru by adding lead to those frames, they come light for personal setups. But hey, if you like the feel of the Wilson frames then you should stick with them!
