I haven't seen a lot of talk about this racquet outside of the main thread for all of the new Gravity's, even in that thread it's mostly the Pro or Tour model's. This racquet, to me, is probably one of the best I have ever used, and I have used a lot!
I bought one, and after my first hit immediately bought a second. I added 12 grams into the handles and with an overgrip, they are both 334 grams, bothy are 7.5 points headlight and both have a swingweight of 322, which is my preferred spec, but everyone is different.
Head quality control was outstanding. I was able to match each of them exactly the same.
The string set up is Wilson natural gut mains 16/ ALU power ice blue crosses 16.
This racquet is so smooth and while my set up probably isn't for everyone, it is pure butter to hit with. It plays similar to my Wilson Clash 98's V1, but has more power than the Clashes and more consistency off the stringbed a nice 22mm beam and no crappy "Fuzzy-Feel" paint job. Less floppy/wet noodle. The paint scheme is phenomenal!
I have used everything from the ProStaff 85, 95, Tour 90 (every version of the Prostaff 90 I think), the first version of the RF (red head/black throat one, which I liked the best out of all of them). I tried every version of the RF. I played the ProStaff 97S, both version's for a couple of years. I moved to the Blade V6 and on to the V7, back to the RF for a little while. The regular ProStaff 97 for a year. I went to the Clash 98 v1 for almost a year, because I wanted more easy power than the Blades.
My latest trend was the Yonex VCore 95 2023. They were interesting to me, but I never gelled with the slightly lager grip size and grip shape and I didn't like the zero butt-cap flair.
The VCores hurt my elbow after a while, so I went back the Clash 98's v1 for a month to heal up the elbow, it wasn't bad, just need a break form the new VCore's I know the RA says 61, but it doesn't feel like any 61 I've ever used and I won't be surprised if more people start complaining about sore elbows using it.
At any rate I wanted to try the Head Gravity as I had only tried the Prestige 93, which I liked but was not an ideal fit for me, but still an excellent frame.
The handle size and shape on the Head Gravity was like it was designed for my hand and felt like an extension.
Every single stroke feels better with this racquet for me. It really is the best fit for me then any racquet I have ever used.
There are tons of racquets out there for everyone, but I wanted share my opinion about this one and my experience with it. My racquet search is done and maybe they are really similar to the previous versions and that's why not much is being said about them, but I wanted to get this out there for people read ( VCore 2023 user's).
It's hard to see the ice blue ALU, but it kind of shows up in the tie-off's.
