Verdict
The blue racket that still makes pace feel free—softer than older Pure Drives, still firm, still the club default when you want the ball to go.
Classic Prestige midplus—99 box-beam control with Auxetic 2 softness and more usable pace than the franchise’s brick reputation, if you already swing with intent.
Yonex’s club-player control stick—surgical 97 aim, buttery FlexCon pocketing, and enough spin to keep full cuts honest.
