I think the POG mid provides little power. But maybe you all would like to add your thoughts.
Which of the player's racquets provides the least power?

Bab PD, lol.
Seriously, maybe the Yonex Rd-Ti 70 was the lowest in power I ever tried (speaking of players frames).
The POG mid has still some inherent power, although veeeeery little.

The one I always here is the least power is the RDX500 mid

Yes it's true. And the Rd-Ti 70 is even nastier (to me at least)!jackson vile said:
RDX 500 mid is also a sweeter hit somewhat.

Most of the low powered racquets are no longer in production. The PS 85 is certainly not the lowest powered frame I have used, though it comes a close second. The lowest powered racquet is the dunlop revelation 200G which I am currently using. A very enjoyable hitting experience this racquet provides..

Of the racquets I've played that are currently on the market, the PS 6.0 85 and POG MP. Havn't tried the RDX 500 Mid, but plan on it in the near future.

Sorry, almost forgot about the PC 600. Maybe the lowest powered of the others I mentioned.

Fischer M speed 98 has very little power
Anything head or prince is usually low powered. Prince Rebel, POG, Diablo, and the Chang's... Basically the Prince racquets with thin beams. Any Head Prestige, MP or smaller. Don't know about the newer flexpoints, but I imagine they are similar to the Intelligence and LM lines, which are really boardy and low powered. Yonex RDX and RDS 90" racquets are pretty low powered also. But the yonex's are less boardy feeling, can't really explain that.

I head about it and TW review rated its power level very very low.
But I hit with it and I'm not sure if it has that low power.
It's more like non-linear reponse of power output with input.
I guess it generally has low power but sometimes I get big surge
of power...

Don't forget the PK Redondo Mid.

I've been going through the new racquet finder on tennis.com and it appears that the Redondo Mid is the lowest powered: 1643. The RDX500 90 would be next with 1741. POG is actually one of the more powerful ones with 2038 though I don't think it's more powerful than the RDS001 98(powerlevel: 1999) like it claims.
Actually, this racquet finder is pretty screwey. It claims that the HEAD Classic Mid is less powerful than the 6.0 85(1822 vs. 1839)Hell no!, and that the Yonex RD ti-80 has an RDC flex of 60(making it more flexible than the RDX500 90) and is one of the most low powered racquets in production(1705).
This is just plain wrong.

That's because those HEAD racquets have dense string patterns.Vamz said:

When I was messing around with the racquet finder, the Wilson nFury 100 was rated the lowest powered at 1400 and change, quite a bit lower than anything else. They have the flex rated at 48 (!) and TW has it rated at 50. Very low SW of 297, slightly less than 10 oz. strung,
Has anyone hit with the nFury 100? Note that the 110 is much more "normal" in terms of flex. Is the nFury 100 really as low powered as the specs suggest? How does it hit?
Of course, this isn't a player's racquet, so sorry if this is side-tracking the thread.

Actually, I would tend to agree with those Tennis.com numbers for power and flex. This is from my experience playing with the above mentioned racquets.
