HEAD Ti S6 Tennis Racket - Pre-Strung Head Heavy Balance 27.75 Inch Adult Racquet with 4 3/8 Inch Grip | Perfect for Power Players & Recreational Tennis | Great for Singles & Doubles Matches

So I got this racquet seeing all the reviews recommending this racquet for beginners. I don't know what kind of noodle armed people this is recommended for but my first ball is still in orbit. The second ball hit the Sea of Tranquility and can be seen on a clear evening when the moon is aligned just right. It feels like a great racquet but I'm going to have to invest in having a proshop set the tension to a reasonable setting, thank God I didn't blow a ball through some poor bystanders torso...or cut a kid in half with a ball cruising through at Warp 7.Excellent racket. This is a solid racket, light, good length to reach high and low shots, and a good deal of pop on returns. Of course, I was using a 20-year-old racket previouslyarrived quickly. comes with DampenerI bought this for my daughter to give to he rpartner who is interested in furthering his tennis career. Many of my tennis buddies play with this racquet - and they are far from beginners. This racquet covers all the bases - it's a great value for the money. You can't go wrong with thus Head.I have used this frame successfully since high school. I replaced the strings to a harder compound but the strings it comes with are very high quality. Great racquet!Watched a YouTube video to size this and it is exactly as advertised, arrived quickly.I've played tennis for fun when I was young and owned tennis racquets from Head, Slazenger (Yes it's an old brand), Wilson and even adidas in all shapes and materials (from wooden rackets to now titanium)... and I have to say that when I decided to play tennis again a decade later, the choice was hard to make to spend too much money on a tennis racquet yet find something that works well for an intermediate player. I tried the cheap options that you find at Target or Walmart but they were underwhelming in terms of what you could do with them. So I decided to buy a better tennis racquet. After trying a Wilson Blade 98 16x19 Countervail and comparing it to this Head Ti S6 tennis racquet, I felt that I was getting much more bang for the buck with the Head Ti S6 with its larger head/frame, so I opted for this tennis racquet.So far so good, I'm not a great tennis player, though I can play decently, and mostly like to play for fun, fitness/keeping myself in shape and this is the perfect tennis racquet for it. It is probably the best tennis racquet I've owned for the money. I would recommend this racket over the ones you buy for less than $40 any day, and over the ones you can get for less than $100-$125... It hits the sweet spot for performance, power, precision, shock absorption, and value/price. Very happy with this one!I'm in my late 40s and haven't played tennis in years. I purchased this racquet based on good reviews, the fact that it seems like a good racquet for a beginner to low intermediate level player, and was reasonably priced. After talking with our club tennis pro I have learned the following:- this racquet is geared towards beginner players and is designed more for women or younger players who need help in generating extra power in their swing. Apparently the extra wide body design lends itself towards additional power.- the strings with which this racquet came equipped are a fairly low quality string and if you plan to play much tennis you should have your racquet restrung with a higher quality string that will reduce vibration and also strain on the elbow and wrist joints.- even beginner players can tell a difference between a high quality and low-quality racquet. I had the opportunity to hit with several higher-end Wilson and Yonex racquets that also had quality strings, and even at my modest level of skill I could tell a significant difference in my ability to hit the ball.All that to say, depending on your profile this racquet could be an acceptable alternative especially if cost is a factor, but I would recommend spending the extra money to have the racquet restrung with higher-quality strings. I also recommend talking to a tennis pro before you buy a racquet, even if you are brand new to the sport. Had I done so I probably would not have bought this racket at all and put the money I spent on this racquet toward a higher quality product. Further, if you plan to compete at any level you will want to have the best equipment you can afford, because let's face it, it's all about getting the dubya (W)...the win!Lightweight, powerful, with great feel. I really enjoy playing with this racquet and would definitely recommend it at the priceLight and power ..ad I expected...perfect for flat hitNach fast 20 Jahren entschloss ich mich, einen Tennisschläger wieder in die Hand zu holen. Es war schon lang her, als ich das letzte mal mit einem Schläger spielte und das war nebenbei erwähnt ein Squash-Schläger. Wie auch immer, was sofort auffällt ist das sehr geringe Gewicht und die gute Qualität. Mein erster Gang auf den Platz war mit gemischten Gefühlen aber tatsächlich klappte es gar nicht so schlecht, als zu befürchten war. Der Schläger liegt exzellent in der Hand, verzeiht kleine Ausholbewegungen, entwickelt einen guten Druck und vor allem gab er mir das Gefühl, nicht viel verlernt zu haben. Das kann zugegebenermaßen auch bei einem anderen der Fall sein aber dieser hat nichts, was ich zu beanstanden hätte.Entgegen der Beschreibung ist der Head 2017 aus England genau der gleiche, den ich zeitgleich aus Deutschland bestellt habe, nur ist der aus England um gut € 5,- teurer, aber eben kein neues Modell, wie behauptet!Deshalb gibt es für den englischen Schläger einen Stern Abzug.p.s.Habe nun doch noch entdeckt, dass an der unteren Stirnseite am Griff eine kleine Veränderung in Form eines "SCHOCKSTOP" zu sehen ist, was immer das für den gesamten Griff bedeutet. In jedem Fall spielt sich der Schläger super angenehm. Der letzte Stern wird deshalb nachträglich lobend hinzu gefügt. M.f.G.It is big and light. If you’re someone who is fit and generally athletic with good ball-game sense, you will quickly outgrow this racket and start to look for intermediate level racket with 100 sq inch face. If you’re like me, you’re better off going straight for an intermediate racket.
