the real question, of course, is RA, with those flexier pro stock "Pure Drives" that show up on the webz for sale

Babolat posted on TT a while back that his unstrung, no overgrip, specs were 315gr and 32.7cm balance. Another website was selling a match used Fognini Pure Drive, no cortex with the original GT paint job and the specs, strung with overgrip were 335gr, 33.5cm balance and 64RA flex.

RA 64, I think.

Yes basically retail babolats for most part have nothing to do with pros match used racquets except the paint

I've always wondered if there are any pros that use Babolats (or any racket for that matter) with the skyhigh RAs of many modern rackets these days...

I don't think they do.

The website of the Italian tennis channel SuperTennis posted these specs last March. They reported a 69RA stiffness among other things.

Wayne Arthurs used stock PD+ weighted up; I imagine this is/was the case with other relative journeymen.
