Wilson Pro Staff 97S Racquet Review

http://bit.ly/ProStaff97S Endorsed by Grigor Dimitrov! With the Wilson Pro Staff 97S, Wilson delivers a spin-friendly weapon to intermediate and advanced players. With its 18x17 Spin Effect string pattern, this stick puts a tight grip on the ball and delivers an impressive level of spin on full swings. It also comes with a thin 19.5mm beam, giving it a truly classic feel. With its high swingweight (336 RDC), this racquet not only hits a very heavy ball, but it feels rock solid against pace. Like the Pro Staff RF 97 Autograph (endorsed by Federer), this stick does not get pushed around. From the baseline the 97S delivers an impressive level of stability, comfort and power. Our playtesters were particularly impressed by how well this racquet drove the ball through the court. On slices the 97S knifed through the ball like butter. We found plow-through to be supremely impressive with the racquet driving through slice shots like a 13 ounce racquet while offering up the added bonus of its mobile 11.5 ounce strung weight. At net the even balance puts effective mass in the head and gives this stick an extremely solid feel. The thin beam supplies phenomenal touch, and there s plenty of put-away power for those who like finishing points with a bang. On service returns this racquet holds up very well against big serves, making it easy for the player to block the ball deep. Aggressive servers will find some serious power and spin (see free points). Most impressively, this racquet blends a classic feel with a modern, spin-friendly response. Combine that with great plow through and pop, and you have a must demo for experienced players looking to hit a heavy ball.
