Verdict
Babolat’s current insulated Pure Drive 6-pack—70 L, stand-up base, clear shoe tunnel, dual mains—at a locked $149; the compact sibling to the RH12 when you refuse another trunk-sized club bag.
The Blade that finally keeps up with modern club pace without ditching the feel that made the line famous.
The current Pro Staff midplus—same v14 playability in classic black paint—surgical aim and plow for players who supply the pace, not free depth.
