That is so kind of you! But I'll prefer a cheaper alternative if there is one. Can you please take a look at this and tell me if it will work?

Ōkay, Thanks for you suggestion Arjuntino !!
You might find some useful racquet reviews on the My Tennis HQ Youtube channel. I know you're looking for a pro model, but he did a really good comparison of all the MP racquets in the various Head lines where he talks about the playing characteristics of each line and what type of player it might suit. He also has individual reviews of various Head racquets - comparison of Speed Pro vs Speed MP, Extreme Tour which he really likes, etc.
I'd be careful making too drastic a jump in weight, going from 295 to 310 may not sound like that much, but it's significant. Also consider the swing weight of your current racquet and how that compares with other racquets you are thinking about.

Okayy, Thanks you so much for your suggestion.....
As of now I have added silicone to my handle, and added 12 g on the frame, 4g each at 3 9 and 12.
It feels good

12g in the hoop laid out that way increases the swingweight about 25-28 which is a substantial change all at once. You probably can pancake the ball now! If it feels great, then by all means continue. However, probably worth testing the set up in a 2 hour hitting session or match and see if it doesn’t start to feel a little too hefty as you get tired.Okayy, Thanks you so much for your suggestion.....

The Tourna stuff is ideal, so if it’s cheaper, that’s great.

Heyy, yeah it does feel super comfy to hit the ball, but I didn't only add 12g to the frame, I also added some silicone to the handel to balnce it out. The racquet feels so great when hitting hard, I tell you, it's gold. The only thing that bugged me was a weird feeling in the strings..... they were vibrating like anything, so I put on a shock-stop, and now I know what heaven feels like.
I started using a 10 lbs dumbbell in my workout, and now it doesn't feel that heavy. But I have to admit, on the first day after a 1 hour sesssion, there was some soreness in the shoulder muscle, the one just above my bicep.
Cheers!!
