Pro Staff Classic 6.1 95 was that stiff and the Hyper Pro Staff 5.0 was 74RA. Wilson likes to have their player frames very stiff.

RA is far from a determining factor for comfort or a stiff feel. The Graphene Prestige Pro and the Volkl C10 Pro have the same RA rating for instance.

yeah true in many old frames but latest racquet tech (whatever we call it) makes racquet feel harsh on joints (maybe softer string helps little)

Pro staff classic 6.1 95 is 70 with 16x18 string pattern (also comes in 18x20) but hyper prostaff is indeed 74

Check out the review, they mentioned comfort as a surprising positive for all racquets of the Burn FST line.
