well, my x-mass came early this yr. i went out and bought myself an imfamous razer pro, and a python optra.

as people have said the razer pro is nasty. i luv it. all except the scoop. it's not a perfomance issue but it makes it look (in the back) like a blade, and i'm a semi fan of those, but i was looking for somthin kinda new like the evo pro scoop. the weight is nasty i'd give it a 10/10. it's how i like my heads weight to be. don't know the exact weigh..
the design is alot better looking upfront then it is in pic's. i kinda liked the ribbed thinggys that the finalizer unvailed and the revo pro and evo pro carried on, but this didn't hav it. making it look alot like a regular razer. wich in some cases is a good thing if u like low profile performance.
the thing i was least impressed about was the throat. it is the most dinkey looking thing ever. it's almost identical to the mini finalizer throat but bigger. it looks like, and there are acounts in some of these other reviews, of them snaping, or cracking.
but over all i give it a 7/10, not as impressive of a leap then the evo/revo pro, but a great head. it might even hold up for d. if u tape the throat.
i hav warrior soft(ish) mesh in it. and i put a nice ball width u in it. not a ton of whip, and just over legal pocket length. and it handles like a dream.

and now for the python optra, these hav been out for a while and i saw they were'nt on the review list. anyways if u like harrows u'l luve this. it's weight is orgasmic. the color scheme is also pretty cool, but i luv the grip. it's a regular classic grip w/ the rubberized finish. but it's more angular then the harrows, kinda like a ti classic. and it's really easy to get extra screws in it.

hope these guy's help ya, might be able to get pic's up by the end of the week.

If you can, can you get pics of the razer pro and the python?
I'm looking forward to a more thorough review later on.

Yes, pics would be good. And i am not a fan of the Python Optra. I don't like the feel of the shaft. It feels like I could just snap it on my leg.

You should restring the top. Use oranges way. that always eliminates the "lip" that you have.

Put a nylon a few diamonds under the scoop and pull it really tight. And there shouldn't be any lip.

Hehehehe, you know whats funny?

Every single Razer Pro Review that has been done, is completely inaccurate.

You know why? Because they all reviewed the Razer Pro without using it for an adequate period of time.

Why do you need to do that? Mainly to test the head's durability.

And guess what folks-the Razer Pro has SERIOUS durability problems. Every review done so far ignores the heads durability, because they reivewed it prematurely.

Stop the Razer Pro Reviews, guys. Give the head some time, or else you're judging it poorly. This is a VERY good example of why not to review equipment so early, since the Razer Pro has horrid durability problems. 4-5 TLF people have already broken their Razer Pros.

^^^ This is what makes the Razor Pro a bad choice for now . But they should make it stronger.

That was the biggest reason I never got the Python Optra... Because I'm not paying $100 for a rubberized twig I could snap over my leg. And also, until they improve this Razer Pro problem, I kindly suggest people who are pending on getting this head for Christmas pospone their anxiety. These heads are worse than Deuces it seems right now.
