Which one is better? According to my brother they are the same just different colors one is red one is orange.

I know the one is 353 grams and the other is 303. Also the nTour is .25 inches longer.

Answer 1

There is no 'better' racquet unless you're comparing a Wal-Mart Racquet and a Tennis Warehouse Racquet. Its all about how you feel using the racquets. But from my personal experience, the Wilson nCode Six-One 95 is less forgiving, but feels great once you hit that sweet spot. Not sure about the other one. Hope I helped~

Answer 2

The weight is different and the balance is different.  The Nsix-one is more head light, and requires the user to supply the power more.  The Ntour is closer to an even balance (I think its one point head light, vs the 8 HL that I think the Nsix-one is).  The difference is night and day.  They are REALLY different racquets.  I used the Nsix-one 95 for about 2 years, and believe it is the superior racquet between the two.  The Ntour is really light, and easier to use for a beginner.  The Nsix-one is also a more solid racquet at the net.
