I've tried it...it's similar to the MP Tour-5, except stiffer and less headlight and a little more power. I felt it was too stiff and "glassy" feeling....I'd be afraid of arm trouble down the line....it's definitely more of a baseliner's racquet stock, although if you leaded up the handle maybe you could make it more headlight and it would be more maneuverable, but as is, it feels too head heavy at the net for me....try the Tour-5...much better IMO
