The Drive Z 105 offers surprising stability for its light weight. Coming in at 9.8 ounces strung, this racquet provides excellent maneuverability and power, while the larger midplus headsize is quite forgiving. This racquet comes with Smart Grip technology, an ergonomic grip shape designed to allow your hands to relax for a more fluid swing style. The open 16/19 string pattern furnishes good access to spin and even more so when combined with a fast stroke. Our testing team found the Drive Z 105 to be very easy to maneuver from both the baseline as well as at net. The Cortex System technology provides a comfortable feel from all areas of the court. More advanced players seeking more weight may want to customize this one by adding some lead. This versatile stick can suit 3.5 to 5.0 level players.
