Head Prestige MP L 2023 - Is it any good for young intermediate players?

[Domzy84]

Im a 17 y/o male, 5'10, weaker then the average
two handed backhand, likes to rush the net when attacking and usually play as a aggressive baseliner
Is it a good racket for intermediate players and can someone who uses it grow with the racket
For context, upgrading from my beginner racket and the prestige caught my eye

Give it a demo

Yep. Demo it. If you're a flat enough hitter there's not much better than a Prestige.

I see you use a 2021 MP-L, how does it feel for you?
im looking at demoing, just cant find a place near me which has the racket.

The '21 MP-L is one of my most favorite frames ever. I main'd it from August '22 - August '23, and it's still in my top three, with high potential to return to #1, after a brief visit with other stuff that was either too difficult to play (for varying reasons) or just not a match for my style, or both. The MP-L just fits a lot of my game and ability level very well, as it would I think for more players than may realize it currently... It's also one of the best options for game stabilization and improvement, I'd say for anyone from a 2.5 to a 4.5. Definitely give it a try if you can!

oh wow, they only sell the 23' MP-L in stores near me and online from the looks of it but I'm definitely going to check it out, going to order the 23' today probs.

Thanks for the input. Much appreciated!

I’m very tempted by this frame, and your comment makes me think it’s worth a demo, a less demanding frame isn’t a bad thing if it improves your game I figure.
