  • A Classic

    Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Dec 26, 1999
    Pros: excellent control, excellent playability, solid racket
    Cons: heavy, not for the beginner

    Summary: I agree with Bryknowsit's opinions on the Wilson Pro Staff 6.1. The 6.1 is not at all intended for everyone. It's an advanced level racket that offers great touch, control, and consistency. The 6.1 has been around for a while. Time ... read more

  • Get Framed- in a good way

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jul 13, 2004
    Pros: Great frame for the classic player
    Cons: Not a lot of power, you'll have to set up, swing, and follow through!

    Summary: I've had sixty-seven tennis racquets in my brief 47 years of living, and playing tennis, and the Wilson Pro Staff Classic 6.1 is one frame that I fell in love with when it replaced the original Pro Staff, and I have flirted with other frames, but I'm ... read more

  • 6.1 STRETCH-SWING AWAY!

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Mar 12, 2002
    Pros: Control, Durable
    Cons: Heavy headed, tough on arm

    Summary: This racquet will help you control the ball off that powerful long swing. The added length will add power to your serve and overheads with out sacrificing too much control. When at net offers great control, but you really need to step into the shot to ... read more

  • Good racquet!

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Feb 5, 2002
    Pros: A good all around raquet.
    Cons: no oversized head.

    Summary: This has to be my favorite racquet, however since I am rough on racquets, mine broke easily. My game improved vastly when I started to use this racquet. I was able to swing quicker and harder because it is lighter than my last racquet. I would recommend ... read more

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Aug 20, 2001
    Pros: Good control, stable, helps to get achieve a steady swing.
    Cons: Heavy, not for beginners

    Summary: Wilson Pro Staff 6.1 is probably one of the most known Wilson rackets out there. This was maybe one of the main reasons I bought it even before testing its fit for myself. Overall I like the racket, but it could be better. This racket ... read more

  • Love that feeling !!!

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Aug 1, 2001
    Pros: Solid feel. Great control.
    Cons: Not for beginners. Heavy for some.

    Summary: The Wilson Pro Staff 6.1 is really not for beginners or even for intermediate players. As pretty much everyone has said, this racquet does not provide much power (meaning you will have to generate most of the power), but it will give you tremendous ... read more

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jul 21, 2001
    Pros: Easy to get used to, reasonable price, good manufacturer
    Cons: none

    Summary: I got the Wilson Pro Staff 6.1 as a birthday gift and found that it was used by many of my peers in tennis. Seeing as how they were good players i thought that this racket would be a great tool in my game. I soon got used to the Pro Staff after playing ... read more

  • Pro Racket for the Pro Player

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jul 8, 2001
    Pros: Excellent durability, control, power
    Cons: Intended for experienced players

    Summary: The Wilson Pro Staff 6.1 is one amazing piece of machinery. It's durable, it's powerful, but it is intended for powerful, serious and experienced tennis players. I would NOT recommend this racket for beginners or weaker players, because it is a little on ... read more

  • Weight is good.

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jul 4, 2001
    Pros: Stable, Solid, Weight, yes weight, just read.
    Cons: none

    Summary: Most people, when they first pick up this racket find it to be heavy and unwieldy. Many other people state that it's just too heavy to play good tennis. To these people I say, you're crazy, because that weight, i feel is what makes me a stronger ... read more

  • My racquet

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Sep 5, 2000
    Pros: good power, feels god
    Cons: price

    Summary: This is good racket. It is so tightly bound that it must at power to my game. I have only been playing tennis for about 3 or 4 months, but this racquet has really helped out my game. My play has improved, it's adding length to my shot just enough so they ... read more

  • Best Racquet Around!

    Aug 27, 2000
    Pros: Durable, powerful, and controllable
    Cons: none

    Summary: This is an excellent racquet. I've been using it for years and I have never had a problem with it. I've tried other racquets and no other ones can compare to it. The Prostaff has great power and very good control. I started off with just one Prostaff ... read more

  • A true threat

    Jul 21, 2000
    Pros: light but powerful
    Cons: not very durable

    Summary: Dear reader, This racquet is the best bang for your buck. I picked up tennis 5 years ago and have played a ton since then. Over all this time I have used the exact same racquet. This pro staff is the ultimate combination of power and ... read more

  • For pros indeed.

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Jun 20, 2000
    Pros: Brilliant placement.
    Cons: Demands a smooth natural swing.

    Summary: I bought my first Pro Staff in high school, and I have to say it is one of my all-time favorite rackets. However, this piece isn't for everyone, it works best for people with a long, powerful swing. Happily, the vibration is dampened pretty well and ... read more

    May 23, 2000
    Pros: 1. Control 2. Firm racquet
    Cons: 1. heavier than others

    Summary: This is certainly the "players" racquet. At one point or another, many players have come across their use of the Wilson Prostaff 6.1 classic. I myself have been using the racquet for six years now. I purchased it after numerous ... read more

    May 1, 2000
    Pros: Versatile, precise and stable
    Cons: weight and small sweet spot

    Summary: I am using the stretch OS as my racquet for single game after trying out more than 20 other racquets. What make it stand out from others are the precision and stability. It's very versatile to meet my all court game. At the baseline, I can hit both ... read more

  • Not for the beginner

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Apr 18, 2000
    Pros: amazing control
    Cons: not for the beginner

    Summary: I got this racket because I found myself having a hard time controlling the ball. I had no trouble hitting solid shots, but my accuracy was way off. When I would go for touch shots, I would find myself not hitting the desired area of the court. I was ... read more

  • Quite Possibly the World's Perfect Racquet!!!

    Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Apr 18, 2000
    Pros: perfect amount of power and control, both regular and extended models
    Cons: expensive

    Summary: The Wilson Pro Staff just may be the world's most perfect tennis racquet. Because of this, it is one of the most popular tennis racquets (which can be seen by the amount of junior players using them at tournaments). The thing I like about it is that it ... read more

    Pros: control; power; flexibility
    Cons: nothing

    Summary: This is one of the greatest tennis racquets ever made. It has a perfect combination of control and power. Most tennis racquets take away a player's feel for the tennis ball. Not this one. This tennis racquet gives players a comfort on the court like they ... read more

  • The BEST racket for high speed swingsT

    Rated a Helpful Review by the Epinions community
    Mar 4, 2000
    Pros: Control is unmatched
    Cons: A little heavy, small head size

    Summary: This is definitely the racket to buy if you have a high speed swing. Although it is not as light as most rackets (a lugging 13 ounces), its control is unmatched. I would recommend this racket for high school players and up. The refined head size is a ... read more

    Summary: I have been playing tennis ever since I was eight and have been nationally ranked in the 16s and 18s. Although I'm not close to turning pro I feel that I have a good enough knowledge on the game of tennis. For that past four years I have been using ... read more

    Jan 26, 2000
    Pros: a great player's racquet, with good control and a great feel
    Cons: Can feel sluggish at net

    Summary: The Wilson Pro Staff 6.1 is a great racquet for 4.0 or above level players with long, fast, loopy strokes. It gives great control to players who can generate their own pace. A word of warning though: if you are unable to generate your own pace this is ... read more
