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.
The silver co-poly that defined modern control stringing—firm, precise, and still the tour benchmark if you swing hard and restring often.
The softest serious 98 you can buy right now (61 RA plus ProKennex's moving-mass Kinetic chambers), with real spin and placement, but you supply the pace, so it's a demo for arm-sore control players, not a Clash substitute.
