I got this question from a reader:
I currently play with the Head Xenon 135. I like it’s balance point (370mm) a lot since the heavy head kind of guides my swing.
Do you happen to know similar shaped racquets with such a head heavy balance? Looking through the various ranges it doesn’t seem that common to me.
When I sat down to reply to that question I thought I’d have a ton of suggestions, but the only two that really came to mind that I’ve used personally were the Harrow Clutch and the Titan Vendetta.
Does anyone have additional ideas on this? Please leave a comment below!

Not all of those rackets are shaped like the Head Xenon 135.
May I suggest the Zateq Superiour 130?:

The Karakal TEC-120 has a frame balance point of about 37 cm.
(however, the balance point of this racket when it is strung and gripped, is about 35.5 cm…)
