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 Blade that finally keeps up with modern club pace without ditching the feel that made the line famous.
The famous gut/ALU Rough hybrid in one $67.50 pack, a convenient one-time trial, but buying the two full sets separately costs about $42 per hybrid job, so it's a sampler, not a habit.
