Poll: Control Frames

You did not add a poll to the thread nor did you ask any qualifiers for what you are looking for. If you are asking for the best over all around frame, out of those stated, then I would give it to the Volkl PB10 mid. The 6.1 95 is an amazing racquet as well and is more used. The other two frames lack the stability the other two have and the LTD, while a good frame in its own regard, is too underpowered for a modern play style of tennis.

Hitch your wagon to the 6.1 95.

Evidently Ryan Harrison didn't get your memo.

The LTD isn't a good racquet for those modern 3.0-4.0 players who know only how to arm the ball and have really poor swing mechanics and don't put any forward momentum into their swing. As players get better they should not need power from the racquet because they generate too much power with their better stroke mechanics. At that point they start looking for control.

I play with the PSLGT. I have no problem hitting the ball long. There is still too much power in this frame for me and I have to rely on a lot of spin to keep the ball in. And a few of my regular opponents often complain about "the cannon balls" I am hitting back to them. So, the PSLGT may have less inherent power than the Pure Drives, but it still gives more than enough power if you know how to generate power.
