Babolat Pure Storm Tour GT Classic Racquet Review
When I created my video about Pete Sampras racquet, I stumbled upon his current racquet of choice, the Babolat Pure Storm Tour GT from 2011. Here is my classic racquet review.

Prince Phantom 100P and 93P Racquet Review
I was a big fan of the Prince Phantom line of racquets when they were first released. This is the update to the Phantom 100P and 93P. The Prince Phantom P line is all about the thin beam and being in control. The feel of these racquets are great, but they are all pretty demanding […]
