Wilson are a superb Racket maker. In fact, I love to play with them. Since my first member of the Pro Staff range as a Junior, My Wilson Rally II, I have been hooked! Ive had a Wilson Ace since and varios others but none as good as my Titanium Pro. Ok, So you are too old for your Junior racket but not quite ready to handle the full size and stiffness of an Adult Racket. Well there is a compromise folks. If you are looking to buy your kids a racket or feel like taking up the game again but cant handle the ball pinging off in all directions as your touch has gone, look into this racket. I went back to the game after some time Last year and could not get on with my old racket. It was so stiff, It felt like my friend was firing rocks at the strings. So off to the shops I went to invest. A Wilson racket means one thing. Quality. It will last and last if you dont get annoyed and throw it around the court in frustration. The titanium pro is just such a racket. Its light weight body means you are not going to develop any complaints form using it. you may even stay with it once you are used to playing again, such is the comfort level gained on court with it. It give a little bit of help towards cushioning shots that might let you down. Saying this, it still has enough stiffness to play the hardest of stop volleys. It forms part of the PRO STAFF range of rackets. These are the ones that people of all ages, abilities and sizes turn to because they know Pro Staff means excellence. Its perfectly balanced for maximum performance. You can feel that in the gameplay. Not too heavy that you are having to cushion shots and not to light so that you have to knock the ball into next week to get a return in. Saying the pros use it is an understatement. John McEnroe was famous for playig with them and more recently, the mighty Pete Sampras has used it to
take him to all of those Grand Slam Victories. If you want to progress up the ladder after this one, go for the stiffer Pro Hyper Hammer as used by the Williams Sisters. More money but a racket to last and last in a power game. Like i said, it caters for all ages. It comes in 2 size grips for the ladies/young adults who may have smaller hands but still want to get those hands on a Titanium pro. Well recommended! The only downside is the price. Novices and learners alike may be offput due to the £60 price tag.

- 03/08/01 I learnt to play tennis (many moons ago) with a Wilson racket and loved it. If I ever squeeze into tennis whites again I would certianly consider investing in Wilson again. |

- 02/08/01 Wilsons do make good rackets but with that price tag I will not be buying one for a long time! |
