Verdict
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 current Pro Staff midplus—same v14 playability in classic black paint—surgical aim and plow for players who supply the pace, not free depth.
