Head Microgel CT 135 Corrugated Squash Racquet

This racquet works really well for me. It is head light according to the 335mm balance and feels like it's very light to swing. It doesn't feel heavy in the hand either. It is quite easy to hit the ball hard with this racquet and it still allows for enough accuracy. I think the strings are pretty good and note that the grip is somewhat tacky in the hand. After playing with it a handful of times it appears to be pretty durable.I am about an intermediate level player and play about three times a week. This is my second racquet after using a beginner Slazenger Excite model that was a serviceable workhorse racquet but doesn't swing as fast or easily as this Head model. For the money, the Head racquet seems to be a pretty good value.

I bought two of the best reviewed racquets, Head Microgel CT 135 and Head Metallix 130 to compare them. Both of the are excellent racquets. I had an inexpensive Prince F3 Agile (around $30) before these. Compared to the Prince F3, these racquets are amazing. I and my friend could clearly feel the difference in our games from switching to these. The differences between these racquets seem minute in the beginning but they start to become visible the longer you play. Although the difference is only 5g, it is surprising how different they feel, Metallix feels much lighter compared to Microgel. With Metallix you get a better control over your shots and it has a good maneuverability, but the Microgel has better power. For drop shots Metallix shines, but for volleys or back of the court shots Microgel is better; the shots have much better feel. I had a difficult time deciding between the two, but I tend to hit the ball harder to the back of the court, so I finally chose Microgel, my friend who has a touch game, needs more control, so he prefers Microgel.

I used to play with a head microgel 125. When they discontinued those, I found this. Once, I got used to it. I think this is a better racquet. Stiffer frame for more accuracy. Grip is nice and tacky too. And a great value at 95 bucks.

Handle broke in half after less than 10 matches. No damage, such as hitting against a wall, the floor or throwing the racket, occurred. Very poor quality.

I have been playing a few months with a starter's kit and now that I am a little bit more skilled I appreciate having a better racket. I believe it is a good deal for the price, I like the fact that it has a solid grip and it is easy to handle

This has been my favorite racquet for decades. As this has been discontinued, it will soon disappear from the websites. Grab one if you can. I don't think there is a better racquet for this price range.The feel is very typical of Head. Because the weight is spread all around the frame, it feels lighter than the 135 gms it has.

Love this racquet. Light. Has a lovely feel. My mother bought one for me and one for my boyfriend and we got a compliment from our squash coach: "Wow, you guys got nice racquets."

I am not a professional squash player but after trying several rackets i must say that this racket produces power effortlessly and does not have a lot of recoil/vibrations. Excellent racket.
