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.
America's default can, the official ball of USTA Leagues for about $3.50 a can by the case, but it's priced for volume and plays like it, with reviewers saying it fluffs and goes flat in a set or two.
The club-default Wilson button dampener—light mute, keeps more string feel than a worm, optional for anyone who likes an open bed—grab the 2-pack if you want the quiet W look, skip it if dampeners aren’t your taste.
