With the Pro 295 Mantis adds another maneuverable racquet with exceptional control to their small but impressive line. Like the Tour 305 this one has decent stability for its manageable weight and fast feel. At just under 11 ounces, the Pro 295 swings fast and powerful from the baseline. Our TW playtesters reported easy access to spin along with a comfortably crisp response. Even more impressive was the very precise level of targeting we enjoyed on long, fast swings. At net the low swingweight (302 RDC) and head light balance make this one perfect for reaction volleys and finishing points. Finally, hitting slice and kick serves are a breeze thanks to how rapidly it whips through the contact zone. Intermediates looking for a maneuverable racquet that does everything well are encouraged to add this to their demo list.
