Sort of an odd question, but did they ever make a POG OS in a XL length?

They made a Prince Michael Chang Longbody Graphite OS, a Michael Chang Titanium Longbody Oversize, and possibly others. Both 28 inches with big swingweights. I have seen 346 for the Graphite and 360 for the Titanium

Mitchman...so how did the Spectrum Comp 110 play? I actually think the Comp and Specturm Comp would still play quite well even by todays racquet standards. Also, to me it seems racquets were better made then, they just hold up better than todays sticks.

For the public? I don't think so.

I think Fuji is asking specifically about Prince Original Graphite, not other OS versions. Because there were extended OS in the NXG and TT line... I think.

Well, it's a beast. 12.5 ounces strung. The power comes from the mass (which I like). It's a little tough on the arm due to the balance, but the feel is really nice.

If I was Prince or any tennis racquet company, I would look at statistics and identify which frames were the best sellers over year and identify why. I'm around 4.0 level player and want following specs:
head size: 95-98 sq. inches
weight: 11.5 oz. - 11.9 oz.
balance: 2-7 head light
feel: can not be stiff and I should be able to string with Poly's without getting any arm/elbow/shoulder problems.
I am currently playing with Yonex RDIS 100MP and have purchased Wilson BLX 98 18x20 2013 and feel the Wilson is at times gets pushed around and a bit stiffer than I would like.
