Did Pete ever use the Largehead?the 110 preceded the 85 which was a downsized version of the 110
lol, no, hahaDid Pete ever use the Largehead?![]()
It is probably HWQ and not HWO!Does anyone know where one with a code of HWO was made? Also, are the little leather pads available or do you have to make them yourself? Thx
Yeah, the bottom portion of what looks like an 'O' is worn so it could very well be a 'Q'.It is probably HWQ and not HWO!
Have a really good look, it's probaly a Q. If it is HWQ then it is made in St Vincent as far as I'm aware.
And you have to make the little leather pads yourself![]()
Early ones were bumperless. Bumpers were added thereafter.Did this racquet ever come with a bumper guard? The ones I've seen on **** do not have one, so it concerns me I wouldn't be able to play with it for too long until it's very beat up.
I don't think the one above had any imperfections that showed the primer colorYes GVI would be made in Chicago
Also can anyone please confirm that the earliest Chicago Pro Staff 85 and 110 had grey primer rather than red?
This has been dicussed before, but nobody can make their mind up on it. I'm convinced that the earliest Chicago made Pro Staff 85 and 110 had grey primer. What do others think please?
Jimbo, of all the Chicago codes I've seen (GRI, GUI, GXI, GVI, GTI, GWI) I have never witnessed a grey primer... only red.Yes GVI would be made in Chicago

WOW!!!Jimbo, of all the Chicago codes I've seen (GRI, GUI, GXI, GVI, GTI, GWI) I have never witnessed a grey primer... only red.
Of all the SV codes I've seen and know of, MGO (or MGQ) doesn't ring any bells. Frankly, I have never seen a SV that began with an "M".How can you tell if its a Chicago vs an early St vincent? I have an offer for a mint condition older prostaff 85, with tension recommendation at 65-70lbs, which makes me think Chicago, but also I heard that earlier St vincents still had that recommended tension. Also, the buttcap code is MGO according to him, but may very well be a Q. Are all Chicago codes starting with G? Thanks, any feedback would be appreciated as I contemplating pulling the trigger
Wilson's COBRA is a Metal 110 that came out the same time as the Sting. Played softer than the Prince Pro, but stiffer than the Prince Classic.As I recall, it came out just after the 110 Ultra, called the Cobra (I think?!?!?!). Great stick though, I'm guessing.

I wonder if Sampras had used the 110 he'd have nabbed a F.O., I kid, I kid.lol, no, haha
It's almost certainly "QTA", meaning it was made in 1988, at the St Vincent factory.I just got one of these off of Letgo. The Buttcap says 01A. Does anyone know what that means?
I think Federer should switch to it.I wonder if Sampras had used the 110 he'd have nabbed a F.O., I kid, I kid.
Ok awesome. I can totally see the T now after you said that. It’s super faded. I got this racket for about $40. Was that a good deal?It's almost certainly "QTA", meaning it was made in 1988, at the St Vincent factory.
He should, so he can win more FO titles but too little late for that, no?lol, no, haha
If it is the same as the 6.0 85 then it would be 17mm. I have one of the original Sting 110's without the bumper guard that measures 17mm. I guess the later ones did not play as well, but this is one of the best racquets I have ever used, and so easy on the arm. The butt cap has "LGT" on it, so doubt it was made in Chicago, but have no idea where.It's thin. Idk the exact measurement but it would be the same as the PS 6.0 85
