16 main Wilson Blade ???? Seriously ? Probably way off the specs I'm looking for, but really worth a look at. I tried the 18X20 and thought it is a great racquet. The only reason I did not get those is because of the 18X20 pattern...

A guy I string for has 4 of these and he loves them. Very classic feel. Flexible, yet stable, plus you can get them at a great price!! He used to use the PT280 (austria) and compared the weight and feel to that. Obviously that's subjective, but I thought I'd put that in there if you're looking for some comparisons. I'm sure those that are huge PT users would disagree, so take it for what it's worth.

I switch back and forth between the POG OS and the 03 Tour. The 03's are easy to transition to but they do not seem to bludgeon the ball as well as the POG.

That's the first thought I had. Lower SW and less weight... However, I'll give it a try. Leather grip and some lead tape. Should hit with them in a couple of weeks. Thanks for the input!

I added about 10 grams of lead tape between the 10 and 2 position, and some weight to the handle to bring the weight up to about 12.6 or 12.7 ounces, about the same as my POG(with dampner and over grip). My 03's now have a slightly higher SW than my POG, but it seems to work with the 03.

Good idea. I'll definitely try the 03's with a leather grip and lead tape (maybe add some extra weight on the handle. Thanks !
