Quick Initial Review:
Snuck in an hour of drop feed hitting with 4.0 hitting partners and a club pro with New Phantom Pro 18x20. Strung with Gut mains & Head Hawk Touch crosses at 45lbs. WOW. This is the first racquet I've hit with in years where I've not had the desire to customize. For me, this racquet is stable, maneuverable, controlled when I want control, and powerful, when I need power...as-is. Comfort is, of course, excellent. The combo of Gut/Poly hybrid and low-powered, flexible frame is awesome. Spin production is maybe less than the Phantom Pro, but still, ample.
The controllable power of this setup was probably the standout feature, with my hitting partners commenting "what did you do to your forehand?!?". Had much more confidence that I could flatten out my forehand and keep the ball in with both spin and velocity.
I have owned Phantom Pro 100P, Phantom Pro, Textreme 95, and Textreme 100P, all in an effort to recapture memories of magical Prince racquets of my past. The Phantom Pro 18x20 doesn't necessarily recapture the feel of past prince racquets, but it has enough Prince-ness combined with enough modern-ness to give me the confidence that I have the best equipment on the court (which is how I used to feel when I had a Prince in my hands...in the 80s). This is a MUST TRY for 4.0+ players who've been struggling to find something to bridge the gap between their classic racquets of the past and modern/tweener frames.
