PS 6.0 95 vs k-faktors?

Which of the newer Wilson frames comes closest to a PS 6.0 95?

Is it the k-faktor tour 90, or will this frame play differently because of a quit higher swingweight? I doubt ordering this one because of the 90 SI head; really like the old 95 on volleying etc.

Or does the k-faktor 95 team, with perhaps a little more weight at the grip (for example by adjusting a leather grip and overgrip?) come closest? From customer comments on this website I would conclude that this frame is lower powered than a k-faktor 95 (which seems to have a very high SW and therefore does not seem appealing to me).

I liked the crisp and power level of the old 95 and would like to pick the frame that comes closest. I can easily handle heavy frames but do not like very high power or mass swing weights. And the 90 head seems a bit small to me (I do not play that very often anymore).

Many thanks for your input since I cannot demo here in this country.

The Yonex RDS001MP one :-D

Hit them side by side, not much difference, ever slightly more heft and vibrations on 6.0

In my experience NONE of the current wilsons play like 6.0 95

I played with the PS 6.0 95 for several years, and until now nothing was similar. I've been hitting with the Asian K-Six-One Tour 90 for the past few days and it is the closest thing to the PS 6.0 95 I have ever hit with. It swings much easier than the regular K90 and is very headlight just like the PS 6.0 95. It also has a bigger sweetspot than the PS 6.0 95 because the top half of the hoop is not dead feeling like it is on the PS 6.0 95. Overall, the Asian K90 is an easier racquet to play with than the PS 6.0 95.

If you're interested in an Asian K90, shoot me an e-mail: breakpointtw@gmail.com
