I think it's a good racquet for intermediate users.
but for beginners, it would be hard to control.

For me as an athlete, very heavy and heavy-headed rackets stop me from raising my game as they are a lot slower and less manoeuvrable. I found the 99 pro harder to use however still performed decently. I find the 99 game however very easy to use with a much faster swing speed. It's lighter which is more user friendly. Generally very heavy-headed rackets are more powerful for people with a certain technique when smashing. If the biomechanics behind your swing is more circular and advanced then heavy rackets will only hold you back. This racket balances the weight while also being head heavy. Good racket however for me balanced and light headed rackets are better.

This is a guide for those who are not sure of your stringing tension, based on average figures for men and women. Higher tension gives you more control, lower tension gives you more power. Higher tension makes the string less durable.
