Nobody wants to be the Buzz Killington of a party but that doesn’t mean you have to observe the same etiquette on court. The new Wilson Buzz Kill BLX is built for exactly that, leaving your opponent drained and disheartened. At 160 grams and 6 points head heavy, the Buzz Kill is light enough to maneuver around the frontcourt while still having the swing weight and balance to hit a 40-foot kill shot. Even better are the cosmetics, clean and aggressive colors let you look good while being a total buzz kill for your opponent’s game.

Comments: Nice racquet. I didn't think "Wilson" when I thought about racquets, until I tried the demo and really liked it. The racquet is very light. It seems lighter even than 160. (On some other racquets, like E-force, the strings and grommets add a lot of weight. No so on this racquet.) The light weight does result in some loss of power. However, control is excellent. I think the Ninja, a heavier version of the same thing, would also be a good choice. The factory string-dampener is completely useless. I use a rubber-band laced horizontally on the bottom string. Oversized rubber-band, loosely laced, no tension, and it works great.
