HEAD Black Widow/Scorpion/Cobra (160/170/180 Racquetball Racquet Series, (3 5/8" Grip)

great precision and power, I play 1-2 times a week with pretty high intensity and when the ball is skimming the wall I never pull up on any shots, and hit the wall a fair number of times. it has held up very well. no broken strings no cracked frame.I like this a lot more at the price of $119.95. Seems like a lot of money for a model they came out with in 2012

Nice beginner racket. Light feel, good quality, nice looking.

I really like the Head liquid metal 170 however the frame broke after 2 plays and I returned it. The Black Widow 160 has a sweet spot which gives you the power however after 3 or 4 games the 3rd vertical string often is out of place. I just move it back in place it's not a big deal. Overall the racquet surprisingly has both power and control and it super light and I did see game improvement and price $129 is reasonable.

I've used Ektelon racquets in the past but was looking to switch brands. I really like the feel of this racquet. You can definitely feel the control in the front court. My only issue is the weight. I would prefer 175, but for the price I'm pleased with it. I'm learning that I have to hit the ball harder when returning serves to get good kill shots. Until I get more used to it I'm doing a lot more ceiling returns. Hopefully with more practice with this racquet I'll trust my skills to kill more serves.

0 DurabilityNot recommendedI did enjoy it while it was new but it broke down in within 4 months, I bought the same one twice to give it an opportunity and I’m really upset, 100% not worth the money, I don’t wish anyone what i went through

Seems to be constructed very well. It’s very light weight and seems durable. Exactly what I was looking for.

String moves too much as if the string was not wound up tight enough.

Really a great racket
