I just grabbed this for 80 bucks at a racquet store.
As far as I can tell it's not a remake.

Taiwan or prior version. Can’t tell based on the pic.

 

[Redfrogger2]

It doesn't say Taiwan anywhere on it.
The buttcap code says GMO.
Any other identifiers to figure out which one this is?
From what I can tell this might be a St Vincent Prostaff 85??

 

[mad dog1]

Taiwan or prior includes St Vincent so maybe it is.

Might want to check the bottom of that O to see if it's actually an O or a scraped off Q

 

[Redfrogger2]

It's GMO.

 

[Redfrogger2]

Although the complete bottom half of "O" is worn off, so its really hard to tell.

It also says 4 1/2 (L4) String at 65-60 lbs.
Weight/Oz.
11.6-12.3
Unstrung

Balanced
1.0-1.5 in.
Headlight

Looks bumperless—if so then early St. V or Chicago

On another prostaff megathread I read that it couldnt be GMO because O and M were both lot identifiers?
It's a shame it's so worn I cant tell if it was ever a Q or an O.

Does it matter unless youre looking to resell? You got a great deal on it. And unless youre Pete youre not going to be able to tell the difference when playing with it.

 

[Redfrogger2]

Not looking to resell. I just started collecting racquets and I'm just interested where they come from

This is a great thread. Check it out.

All Pro Staff 85 editions in photos.

Ok. Because many people don't know the differences between all versions of Pro Staff 85, I want to make this thread to show the differences in pictures. I'll focus only on the main differences that you can detect easily in photos, other differences such as primary paint under paint job and the...
