J-Wildcard
Semi-Pro
I have been a long time user of the Head Prestige MP youtek & youtek IG. I recently purchased a Graphene Speed Pro and have been using it in the last 2 months. I like the swing weight but find on say the backhand slice the weight is in the throat and the shot is not coming off as smoothly as it has on other rackets. Also I am having slight issues on volleys when changing from bh to forehand or vice versa quickly. Once again this weight that seems to be in the throat makes it less manoeuvrable in my opinion. I think when hitting a really big forehand it is slightly overpowered, maybe go a bit tighter on the strings. I do like the racket a lot though and feel it is worth maybe giving a longer run. Has anyone customised this frame to get better playability or maybe give the newer prestige a try? The Graphene Prestige to try and get a bit more of what the IG Prestige gives me back although when it was released I heard a lot say it was a step away from that prestige feel that is renowned through the series. Any thought/suggestions welcome. I use a Hybrid string set up around the 50lb mark.
