TudsW
Advantages: A lot of power and a large sweet spot

Head Metallix 4 = Pretty good!
Review of Head Metallix 4 Tennis Racket by
jdstinger21
Advantages: Great spin, good strokes all round, decent serves and volleys. Good all-round racket.
Disadvantages: 107sq inch headsize, possibly too big? Not too much control on volleys. but that is all!
Iv'e had this racket for approx 6 months. Was moving from a Babolat Aeropro drive (original), only because I just don't think the Babolat is particularly suited to my game (And the strings broke!). I'm a steady player, not brilliant but still play well. I ...

Review of Wilson Hyper ProStaff 5.0 by
donquixote2u
Advantages: control plus, solid feel
Disadvantages: not for the limp-wristed!
If you manage to pick up one of these, you may be getting a bargain - I bought mine second-hand as a backup to my Hyper Prostaff 6.1 - but it soon relegated the 6.1 (a well-regarded control racquet) to my bag.
You would expect the 5.0 to have more pow ...
