What's the deal with Wilson Ultra 97 vs. Ultra Tour...

[myke232]

The Ultra 97 doesn't seem to be in production anymore? Or is it? Can't even find it on Wilson's website.

The Ultra Tour is somewhat similar spec-wise except it's 18x20 where as the Ultra 97 is 16x19.

I guess what I'm asking is do they make the Ultra97 anymore, or is it out of production?

I just noticed Darcis who switched to the 97 is still playin old paint.

Thanks for the info. I wonder why. Doesn't really seem like there is an equivalent replacement...

If the 97 was a scaled down Ultra 100, it would've sold better than the Pro Staffs. But Wilson took the guts out of it and ruined it. Such a weird move.

You can buy Wilson Gut for an extra price.
