Where to buy
What players say
Testers consistently call the CX 200 Tour 18x20 a control-and-feel frame for advanced players, with the tight pattern giving precise, connected ball-striking and a plush, classic Dunlop feel. The tradeoff is low stock power and plow-through, so multiple reviewers say it plays best once weight is added to the stock 306.5g/head-light setup.
