Wilson SC Sting

[time_fly]

I remember owning a white Wilson racquet as a teen and demolishing it on the court after a bad match. I think this was even before high school. I did some research and I think it must be the Wilson SC Sting, specifically the first version before they added the crosspiece in the throat. It actually looks a lot like a white Pro Staff 85. Anyone else ever play with one of these? I was thinking of buying one on the Bay for nostalgia reasons but maybe I’d be better off reliving the actual pro staff 85.

Could also be the Wilson Ceramic.

Both the Ceramic & the SC were softer than the Pro Staff or the Staff 85.

I posted a question about this earlier on the Classic Racquet Talk section. Can you guys compare the Wilson Ceramic to the PS85? I got one recently and wanted to know how it'd compare.

The Ceramic MId was lighter and flexible compared to the heavier and stiffer Pro Staff 6.0 back in the day. It was very headlight and was for serve and volley players. I owned one purchased from a competitor for $65 back in 1990.
