What players say

Liked 3 sources

Players describe the Pure Strike Team Carbon Grey as an easy-swinging, control-leaning frame for intermediate players who want a taste of the Pure Strike family without the weight or stiffness of the full-size 98/100 models. Reviewers consistently call it light, maneuverable, and controlled when struck well, with one owner noting the sweet spot is narrow and off-center hits drop off noticeably.

Best for

  • Intermediate/improving players
  • Players moving up from a beginner or oversize frame
  • All-court players who want control over raw power
  • Players wanting a lighter entry into the Pure Strike line

Pros

  • Light and easy to swing, generates racquet head speed without much effort
  • Good control for a light, forgiving frame
  • Comfortable response with flax-fiber (NF2) dampening
  • Large-ish 100 sq in head keeps the sweet spot reasonably forgiving

Cons

  • Shots noticeably lose quality off-center compared to hits found in the sweet spot
  • Limited independent long-form playtest coverage specific to the Team version versus the mainline 97/98/100 models
  • Not much free power, better suited to players who already generate their own pace

Voices

If you hit it in the sweet spot, my oh my your shots are flying like you are a 5.0 USTA player. If not, back to 3.5.

— Big O, Web

The larger head and light weight feel makes for an easy powerful swing that has plenty of control.

— Grant, Web

I love this racquet. It yields a great response on hits. Light and maneuverable.

— Steve C, Web

The easiest racquet to use in the line-up besides the Pure Strike Team.
