Wilson H-22
We have a few Wilson H-22 at the World Headquarters!
These are custom racquets, so any resemblance to retail racquets is cosmetic! Â These racquets are cut to a length of 27 inches (68.6mm) and have no grip, and the butt cap is not stapled to the pallet! Â This means it is ready for a Wilson Leather grip (or standard synthetic) and some minor length adjustment if necessary.
Wilson H-22
There is a well-deserved mysticism around this iconic racquet model! Â This racquet has been in the hands of many top professionals over the years and probably many right now! Â The relatively thin beam and box cross-section create a predictable and consistent racquet.
These racquets are customizable to achieve the perfect hitting experience for the player seeking a “companion” Â not just a racquet!
Lets compare the Head Prestige Pro 16×19 v Head Prestige Pro 18×20
The following graphic will show clearly why the pro stock (SMU) racquets are very important in our quest to enhance the performance of all players!
Compare Prestige Pro
A primary reason we work with custom racquets is the length of the racquet as we receive it, which allows us to create up to 28 inches (71cm) long. Â We can extend racquets however reducing the length is the preferred option.Â
Of course, we can customize the SMU to match the specifications of the retail (27-inch) racquet but with a 16×19 string pattern.Â
If you look closely you will recognize the tremendous possibilities beginning with a lighter, more flexible racquet for players of all physical abilities!
The supply of the 16×19 racquets is limited, however, demos are available for both.
Head Prestige Pro 18×20 2023 Retail
This Head Prestige Pro 18×23 Retail version offers a high performance racquet ready for serious play! Â However, we offer the custom version for players who prefer a slightly more open string pattern and some customization.
As you will see on the specifications, this racquet is serious, but most players can use this racquet if they get over the idea that these are stiff racquets!

Head Prestige Pro 2023 16×19 SMU
I told you something special is coming soon! Soon is here now! And it is special!
Head Prestige Pro 16×19 2023 SMU
We have a limited number of Head Prestige Pro 2023 with a custom 16×19 string pattern instead of the standard 18×20 (we have those as well). These are full custom racquets, meaning they need some customization, and are usually referred to as “Pro Stock” racquets.
These racquets have a different finish than the retail version, primarily shiny instead of a matt finish anywhere.
We receive these in “raw” form, meaning they are not cut or have any post-manufacturing additives, i.e., swing weight and overall weight.
This means we can make a “full custom” version of the retail model up to 27.8 inches long (70.6 mm) except with a more open 16×19 string pattern!
However, to get things started, we will post the specifications of each racquet “as is.”

Wilson Shift 99L Yes it is HERE!
This could be the Shift you are waiting for!
The Wilson Shift 99 L
The same new technology in a slightly lighter package!
We will post all the specifications soon but we wanted to let you know they are here!
I believe this will be a great platform for future growth! Â The swing weight is a little low. However, that can be changed as necessary to achieve the growth in performance. Â The stiffness of this racquet does lend to the power shown in the specifications, but the lateral bending will benefit those looking for comfort.
