I currently (or have been) playing with the Pure Drive Team +, and one of my two rackets cracked badly the other day, after five years of use, and the other one isn't exactly in great condition either. I'm planning on getting a new pure drive (might as well upgrade now), but i'm not sure which of the four (regular GT, and GT +, and the two roddick versions). i would assume i would lean toward the non-roddick GT+, but i'm not so sure (after trying the first two cortex versions, i like the standard pure drive better). i also have a wilson kblade tour (big difference, i know), so i'm open to the idea of a standard length racket, since i don't think i really feel the "smallness." i live in wisconsin and its a bit hard to get my hands on demoes (i will eventually though) so i thought i'd ask here first.
what i'm wondering i guess is how does the ball come off each racket, what are the differences in terms of handling as well? is the roddick+ THAT much heftier to swing than a standard pure drive? i've seen the swingweight numbers but to be honest i don't feel like they're the best indicators of how a racket swings (apparently the GT+ has 6 more points of swingweight than the kblade tour but i think it swings lighter through the air and feels more maneuverable overall).
in other words, how different are these sticks and what are the characteristics of each?
