comparison - playability of Head Hawk Touch vs Anthracite

[GuttaPercha]

I have a Pure Storm Team strung up w/ VS gut mains @ 56 lbs and crosses are Head Hawk touch anthracite at 52 lbs. Super plush and comfy, loopy topspin sails , but deep normal topspin and flat and touch/volley are incredible with this set up!

How does the red compare to the anthracite? The red would look cool in my racket but i dont want to change the feel.

Imho, the red at same tension has more power and pocketing feel. Athracite has great control and crisper. Hope that helps.

Interesting that the red offers more pocketing and feel. I might have to give it a shot.

I really like HEAD Hawk Touch and use it both as a full bed and hybrid in different frames--I notice not difference between the red and the grey other than color. The red looks awesome in my Prestiges and the grey looks great in my Gravitys. They play the same.

Thanks!

I have been playing with the anthracite since I got a good deal on it. Ive had arm issues but Im curious to see how it is as a full bed.

And the red is harder to find in the US. I will have to play test it with the VS gut in crosses vs the anthracite/VS set up.
