Who likes the new Wilson (K) Factor 6.1 Team Racquet?

I've been using this new Wilson racquet (strung w/ Wilson Reaction) for 1 month and love its "bite" and "touch." I miss the punch-power of my Head Flexpoint and Head TI... Because the Wilson gives me accurate drop shots and slices at the net, I am continuing to practice with it. The logic being: ultimately, I win more points and therefore, more games. Still, I miss the "power" I had with more former racquets. What can I do with my long (baseline) strokes/technique to get that power back and continue to use this amazing new Wilson 6.1 racquet? Are we forced to choose between touch and power? I'm a female doubles player.

Tennis is life what an awesome user name. My doubles partner & I just hit with the Wilson K factor 6.1 90 yesterday at the hitting lane of the Tennis & Golf Factory in Royal Oak, MI.. Wow what an awesome frame. It was better than my Volkl DNX 10 Mid 93's, better than the Yonex RD? Hewitt yellow thing I also tried, and reminded me of my Wilson ProStaff 85's .

As for your comment about power.What tension do you string at now and with what string? Yesterday all demos were 2 over mid or 57 and I loved it. I usually string at max or 2 over max and string with Babolat VS Gut or Wilson Gut. I have enough strength to warrant the high tension and find the Gut easier on the arm and powerful enough for my game.
