huh? are you saying what i think you are trying not to say about what i said in reply to what you said? huh???
Since my last post here, I've switched to these beauties:
They're 16x18 K Six.One 95's. The three I'm using for league play are strung up with Pacific Prime Gut mains and Genesis Black Magic crosses.
I have a pair of the BLX2 version, and they hit the ball just as well as the K Factors, but the feel isn't as much to my liking.

Do you play with the ig ones as well? They are much heavier.

I played with those for 2 years and they never got too heavy for me to handle. I actually modified my Graphene Speeds and they now weigh around 12.1oz and feel just fine to me.

My coach gave it to me because I was using Head rackets with a Babolat bag and it was annoying him! I like it better though!

Nice gear. One of my friend got that bag for his birthday and its probably the best looking tennis bag i have seen. The "shell" structure seems really handy. My own bag keeps folding on itself unless its really full which is annoying when its on my back.

I am guilty as well!!!
That Wilson Bag up there is fierce! I just can get myself to commit to buying a tennis specific bag yet. Unsure why.
Although a dude on my team just got the head andy murray one that looks like suede? Thing is sweet too! The only tennis specific bag is a 16 year old blue wilson bag that holds 2 rackets that I do not even use. lol.

The ones in the bucket are new, but I have a few older ones in the bag, those are also not too old, maybe about 6 months. Still as good as new, bounce well, but feel a bit heavier to hit than pressurized balls.

Unfortunately I don't have time to take pictures of the bag since I'm extremely busy this Summer. I might do them down the line. And I don't 15 racquets nor do I have the money to buy them

I think I got the same bag but in different color, mine is black+white with red trim.

Are they soft like teaching balls with the green dot?

No, they're about as firm as brand new pressurized balls. They bounce a bit less and they may be a bit heavier, though I haven't weighed them.

From what I read awhile ago when I was going to order some, they are fairly pricey in comparison to normal balls.

Flared Butcaps?

Also I think some people don't like their feel, they feel heavier and some havew complained about arm issues when using them.

Uhhh yes...? Haha I don't know I just ordered and it came like that. Don't all racquets have flared buttcaps?
JasonPerelman

Not that flared.

Pretty much all the new Wilsons (BLX2) have the flared buttcap minus the 90 and prostaff 95. The Juices and Steams were the first to really start that feature as far as I know. I love it but a couple people I know really dislike it.

Oh I know what you mean. It's not that flared. It looks like that because of the wrapping still on the handle.

I have a question for you Andy.
Since you switched from a pd for more control isnt this racket to heavy from that switch and what other rackets did you consider?
BLX_Andy
Professional
Nope. I've been lifting lately so I'm used to the weight. I like heavier racquets because of the plow through. I considered the Pure Storm but didn't really like it.
