%The Head Radical Pro EX15 Elongated is a power-focused option that feels pretty sturdy through your swing and gives you a generous handle for two-handed backhands. It delivers plenty of punch on drives and serves, but the face texture tends to wear down rather quickly over time. Off-center hits can feel a bit unpredictable, so you really have to find the sweet spot to keep your shots under control. If you are an aggressive player looking to add some serious pace to your game and you do not mind a break-in period, this could be worth a look.
