The popular Hornet lives on in this lighter and faster feeling update from Prince. EXO3 string ports at the tip of the racquet combine with the Prince Sweet Spot Expansion System at the sides to over a very comfortable and lively response. Both pace and depth is easily generated from the baseline. Players with medium through long/fast swing styles will find a solid blend of power and control. The open string pattern offers a pleasingly soft feel and excellent access to spin. At net the racquet feels mobile, yet offers enough heft for stability. Our TW playtesters found sufficient feedback for touch and feel on placement volleys. On serve this racquet offers excellent access to pace and spin. We found kick serves to really hop with this one and good action on slice serves.
