I was at Sports Chalet yesterday and noticed these recreational Babolat frames. It's basically a Pure Drive without the cortex. It also has side woofer grommets only... none in the head or throat. The price is $85-$99 (online)
Here are the specs:
Babolat E-sense Comp (blue)
Length: 27"
Stiffness (unstrung): 65 (62-63 strung)
Head size: 100 sq. in. (appears to be PD mold)
Pattern: 16x19
Material: 100% graphite
Weight: 9.7 oz. unstrung (10.2 strung)
Balance (unstrung): 335 mm or about 2.5-3 points HL (even balance strung)
With the low static weight and HL balance, a frame like this is perfect for customization. I'm wondering if the drill pattern is the same as the PD (so I can install and try new Woofer grommets as well).
There's also an e-sense lite (yellow) that is 0.5 oz. lighter and 3 points more HH ◄◄
Anyone know if these frames play similarly to the original Pure Drive being it's the same mold and composition with no cortex?
