So I was gone from tennis through all these Prestige 300/600, PT's/280's, Classics, etc., era, and have no idea what they felt like.
Because I like a 16-main racket, I'd tried a MG Prestige Pro, but it felt VERY flexy - although the rating across the board are almost identical.
I borrowed a Junior's Player's Prestige Mid the other night and just destroyed him - with his racket - which pissed him off. I could slapshot winners from almost anywhere, and I REALLY liked the racket (gut crosses, Lux' mains, 56#). Best thing I've used, so far, and believe me, I've demo'd just about EVERYTHING!
Since everyone here raves about the older Heads - and even TW said in their MG-review, that the older Prestige's had a better feel, my question is twofold (for more experienced players):
1. Is there REALLY that much of a difference from the current MG Prestige? I thought it was pretty nice.
2. I like my MG Radical Pros, but I played faaaar better with the MG Prestige Mid. So what racket in the older series would be a 'step up' from the feel of the Mid MG, but still have those characteristics? PT280? 600? 300?
I'd maybe like to pursue an older-but-better frame - at least to try - before I load up on the MG mids (or wait until Head gets the Youtek Prestiges out)
Sorry if this belonged in one of the 'club' posts, but I haven't seen anything (although I might have missed something) that related to this particular question.
Thanks
