Wilson Pro Staff 97 V13 Review - Including Roger Federer's Autograph version

[@googlereviewer1944]

1:55 That's not actually exposed carbon. It's likely to be water transfer decal as the carbon underneath the paint doesn't look like that - its very dark grey like the lead you find in a pencil and no discernable pattern (I've stripped and repainted loads of racquets).

[@ChauToVal]

Wilson website says the carbon fiber is exposed but with a gloss finish. No decal involved.

[@gavlatennis2824]

@@ChauToVal It's not graphite. It's a water transfer decal or similar. Not in a million years would the graphite underneath the paint have a chequer board pattern like that shown on the racquet. Buy one, sand it off and you'll see.

[@gavlatennis2824]

@@ChauToVal It's not exposed graphite. It's a chequer board square pattern. Like I said, the graphite on a racquet doesn't look like that. It's just marketing.

[@thecat4272]

Haha. Funny conversation. I don't think its real carbon fiber either. The weave pattern runs diagonally which would make the carbon weave asymmetrical at the top of the racquet! That would make no sense!

[@anitennislife]

You mean the carbon fiber on those super cars

[@adamblister6005]

8:33 incredible overhead!

[@James-gz6iq]

It's an amazing racquet, my old setup: Babalot Pure Control 18x20, 95 sq in, natural gut (16 gauge) 50 lbs, weighted 12 grams @ 12, 3, and 9 o'clock. Babalot Pure Strike Gen3, 16x19, 98 sq in, Gen3 Luxilon (16L gauge) cross, natural gut (16 ga) main. Weighted 4 grams @ 12 o'clock RF97v13 56 lb natural gut 16 ga main, 52lb luxilon poly 16L in cross. No dampener used. The Pure Control was my first racquet, it has helped me improve my form, and technique. The control was amazing for an all court player, the stock racquet lacked plow through. After making adjustments, 50lbs, and using natural gut made the racquet more comfortable for me. The Pure Control was very stable, has a better feel than the Strike. After I purchased the Strike, I went back to the Control to finish my games. For me, Pure Control lacked maneuverability at volley, so I bought the Pure Strike. I struggled to adapt to the Strike because of it's instability against heavy topspin shots with all poly 16 ga strings. If I didn't have a good contact placement, the ball tends to stray. I felt loss of power on the all poly setup at 55lbs after a few games. It took me awhile to adapt to the Strike because of its string pattern, eventually I tamed the power of the Strike when I switched to a hybrid string setup. The Strike was relentless at volley's, it created a defensive wall against all shots, it was highly maneuverable. I was curious about the hype of the older RF97's, and had put off buying it, I was very comfortable with the Control, and tepid on the Strike. I got the RF97 out of pure curiosity. At first play on a wall, the racquet felt amazing! It was a compromise between the Control, and Strike. It has a crisp punchiness to the shots, the weight disappears in game play. The weight of the racquet didn't slow my game down, or wear me out prematurely. I had great control in shot placement, and response on volley's, although it wasn't as fast as the Strike. I have great feel on the depth of the ball with full semi-western swings, and I didn't change my playing style. Overall I really enjoy the RF97, it's definitely a keeper.

[@pse-df7dd]

Hi. Thank you for reviewing prostaff v13. I asked wilson about RF97 v13's changes from v12. Wilson said that RF97 v13 had a slight change in string spacing from previous version. Also, swing weight is little lower than before as you mentioned.

[@afsarlawgroup]

Appreciate the review! Ordered my PSv13 and can’t wait.

[@jonathanchen1026]

How did you like it?

[@afsarlawgroup]

@@jonathanchen1026 It’s my racket of choice (v13 not RF). I was using the prior iteration but really find the removal of CV and smaller frame to be (small but) appreciated improvements. What racket do you use?

[@afsarlawgroup]

@@zxbillfo I had the Black Camo paint job with CV and do like the new version better. The improvements are small but noticeable improvements in my opinion.

[@josephsantana3094]

Switched to this frame (the standard v13) and my forehands, volleys, and slice backhands absolutely love it. I'm only a 4.0 player. Great stability and decent plow through especially for a sub-12oz racket. Racket is very maneuverable and has excellent feel without being harsh or stiff. However been kind of difficult getting my serve and regular backhand figured out. Could be that I miss the sweet spot more on these strokes and the racket is perhaps less forgiving than the ezone 98 I switched from. But I'm hoping I can get it figured out because I really want this to be my long term racket.

[@z1az285]

@Ji Kim they sure can. I am a 4.0, however the racquet feels stiff if strung with a stiffer poly above 54 lbs. Gut (57lbs) or multi(55 lbs) mains and 54 lbs prince XT / 53 lbs cross respectively. And yes, i can play without any issues for 2 hours or so

[@BeckettChung]

[@crumbsnatcher74]

Great review. Can't wait to demo it locally. I wish the pin stripes were on the face of the racket like the original PS 85 and not on the inside where the grommets are. Would've made the racket look so much nicer IMO.

[@oliverzsok]

@@Tennisnerd Fantastic review ! Can you recommend some stings for this frame? i tried Head Lynx , Head Lynx Tour, Confidential , Hyper G , Wilson Revolve and i still can't feel that it brings the best out of this frame. The best for now is Confidential @ 24 Kg . Thanks for any tips you can give me!

[@jbeni2394]

As always, great review! Just one thing I think you can improve; I think you are too cautious when you say 95% of players (recreational I assume) can’t play with this racket. I made the switch to the RF97 about 3 months ago and it is Beyond a doubt my favorite stick to play with and I can feel (as well as my opponents) how it has complimented/improved my game. I am only an average USTA 4.5 singles player. I think more of my fellow recreational players should give this racket a try and not be so afraid that they are the “95% of players that can’t play with it”... it very well may suit them as well as it has me. Cheers!

[@LaBestia2156]

[@weyman4317]

I find it strange that the RF97 is too heavy. I’m playing with a pro staff classic 95 which weighs strung 357 grams from 1992. The old wooden rackets were far heavier than they are today and a 60 square inch head. I worry that light rackets don’t have the punch of the heavier ones and I wonder how the arm feels when the force comes through on the lighter models?

[@Abe-Lau]

I am so happy that my Pro Staff V13 was only 2 grams off spec (313 grams unstrung). Wilson need to improve their QC though.

Going to retry this frame, the last version really did have the inconsistent string bed, it would launch the ball at random moments. Classic Pro Staffs were known for being super consistent.

[@ginawilliams5496]

what is your view on starting a match with RF97 and then (after a set or so if/when your arm starts aching) to move to the 97m for the remainder of the match? I have been using a heavier Karakal racquet (334gm, and with slightly wider grip) to start, then moving to a slightly lighter Karakal racquet (328gm, and with slightly narrower grip) as i find the 'easing off' of arm strain that way. No repercussions felt after the match though, so don't feel like I'm harming myself. Looking to trial the RF97 and 97m to replace my aging Karakals.

Alexander Pr. Feels pretty solid. Strung it with champions choice @ 52/54. Alu on the mains. Having used RF97(tuxedo) previous years and currently been using vcore pro 97HD. This PS97 is about 25gms lighter than my RF97 but similar feel. Stiffer than the vcore. I measured my vcore @ 326 SW versus the 325 of this PS97. Even if the vcore is heavier, it’s more headlight. Pocketing and control for the PS97 is nice. But i’m still getting to know the stick. I still need to hit with a heavy hitter to know how much it can plow through the ball. But I like what i’ve experienced so far.

[@leebr2010]

This is a common complaint I hear from different reviewers. It's almost like they echo each other. but I've been playing with the all black non-CV PS97 v11 and never had such inconsistency problems. Any inconsistencies, I blame it on my inconsistent swing or poor footwork on that shot. If this new version has more control, that's great. But I think sometimes people just kind of echo each other's comments back and forth.

[@mlzu.]

@@leebr2010 its probably the different type of strings used in the setup. I used Tecnifibre X one Bi phase at 59.2 lbs and ALU rough at 56.2 lb. the bi phase was a power string, so thats why it flew. also it was a fresh string job when i played with it. I like it more dead as it gives me more control. my previous string setup was wilson nxt and alu rough.

I think it is a major update from the 97 CV, but if you like them and play well with them - you are fine. Whatever works for your game 👍🏻

[@nicolewb24]

Tennisnerd I do like them but I’m playing them coming from the Clash 100 which I found imprecise and really lacked stability, particularly at net. So I’m questioning if there’s something better out there for my game. Before I bought my pro staffs I also demoed the Yonex Ezone 98. It was a close second place for me but it was just a little bit too light and unstable so I went with the pro staff countervail. Now that there is a Yonex Ezone 98 tour as well as a new pro staff im wondering if I’d be better off with one of those. I may have to do another round of demos.

If you’re in the US I think Wilson are offering $50 off of new racquets when you trade in your old ones. Maybe worth looking into?

Do you mean smaller or bigger than the 97 square inch head? They would not make it bigger because it is a control racket and it would be more sluggish. And smaller head size would appeal to less people. 97 squqre inch is great IMO.

[@b.lakeberg7456]

@@Abe-Lau I do mean providing the overall playability the Prostaff line is known for in smaller and bigger headsizes. I agree 97 is an awesome headsize the complinents the newer style of control tennis from all areas of the court. The previous generations of the Prostaff line had other headsize options with the thinner beams and emphasized control/playability. The new PS97 has kind of changed into the signiture line of Roger Federer. This is a marketing decision working very well for Wilson. A Prostaff 100 would be nice, but those options are in the blade/ultra/burn options ranging from more "control" to "power" based frames.

Hi Pratham, if you can handle a 320 SW racquet, I think the Pro Staff could work well but it is a pretty demanding racquet to create power with. I would consider a Wilson Blade 100L (you can always customize it) or a HEAD Gravity MP for a bigger sweet spot and a somewhat lower weight.
