Wilson Burn 100ULS

I absolutely love this racket. Getting used to the feel and timing took a little bit of time, but I loved using it. I've suffered from shoulder problems for years even before getting into tennis, and tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, and triceps tendonitis after getting into tennis. This racket is wonderful on my elbow. I still have shoulder pain during serves, but it's not as bad as before. I need to get used to the racket a little more since it does have a little more power than I'm used to. My shots go long slightly more frequently now, but that may also be due to my Tecnifibre X-One Biphase. Slight adjustments should make this racket perfect for me.

I been playing with the racquet for 8 mos. and it’s a great weapon. The feel and comfortable of the racquet is right on. The con of the racquet, is that it doesn’t stand longevity. What I mean, is it get hair splits after you start replacing strings. I play 4.5-5,0 65’s and I practice four to five times a week. I find myself restring my racquets every three to four weeks. I’m a diehard Wilson person, but for the first times, I use 17g. (I enjoy the feel); I’m thinking, of switching and I never thought that day would come. For the first time, I’m experiencing disappointment.For history sake, I’ve played high school to the semipros with Wilson racquets and this the first time I have had this kind of hip- up in a Wilson racquet.As a teaching pro, most of my ... MoreI been playing with the racquet for 8 mos. and it’s a great weapon.

But noted, given that the instructor is playing with it, Their thinking is, I need that.

Cushy feel, gentle on the arms, good power and precision

This is a very different feel compared to typical rackets. There is a lot more flex in the shaft, which translates into a comfortable and cushy contact and extended pocketing of the ball. That's how this racket generates additional pace and spin by extending dwell time. The soft contact will benefit anyone looking to move away from harsh hitting frames or have injuries to recover from. I found this racket did not change the precision of my shots noticeably. The increased spin also put some more control on ground strokes.

Good Power Racquet with Spin Potential

This is my 3rd Burn, V4, I have 2 LS and 1 S. This racquet suits my 3.0 level game very well in terms of baseline power and spin capability. Given it's price point, it is a no brainer, plain and simple. Thank you for not gouging us on this racquet!

Good racket, horrible quality control.

I've been a Wilson fan boy for a bit but the quality control is absolutely horrendous. I purchased a clash and it played amazing. Purchased two more and none of them play the same, nor do they have the specs mentioned. One is unstable and light, while the other one ended up being a log. Swing weights are clearly much different and customer support doesn't give you many options as it falls into their "tolerances."

Innovation

I have been playing with Pro Staff 97 for almost 2 years. I am completely happy with legandery Pro Staff 97 which is 315gr. My friend has Clash 98. By this way, i had a chance to try it. As a first impression; i thought Clash 98 is much lighter than Pro Staff but it is 310gr. So, not much lighter actually but it makes different feeling somehow. I think, that is great. It is very easy to get used to it and swing it. I really like Clash 98 while playing. On the contrary, its paint work is not succesful. Although my friend is very attentive about equipments, there was many chips on its paint. Another negative impression which is very subjective is the grey color at the middle. I did not like its color, It looks cheap for me. Pro Staff is much more attractive with its ... MoreI have been playing with Pro Staff 97 for almost 2 years.

At the end, I want to have one. Clash 98 will be my primer racket but probably after paintwork improvement. ( I am almost sure Wilson will solve this at short notice.)

Read before buying

I bought this raquet 2 weeks ago, used 2 times; strung with Wilson Synthetic Gut Power 55Lbs. Definitely didn't meet any of the speciations on the description (except fort the spin). This the very first time buying a brand new Wilson raquet and I'm so disappointed I wasted my money. This raquet should be targeted to recreation. Don't think about saving some money, don't do what I did unless you'd like to oay more on your end.

What a beauty

Love the racquetIts such a naughty racquet ..very arm friendlyCan generate lots of spin ,hit super hard alsoServe heavy ,serve slice and kick easily with itVery flexible and arm friendlyLovee it

Wilson Clash 100

I got this demo because I am in search for a new racket. I have played with a Wilson racket for most of my career, and was not satisfied with trying rackets from other brands.I therefore tried this racket side-by-side with other Wilson models in the same practice (e.g. Burn, Blade, Pro Staff). The Clash 100 stood out as the most flexible, and adaptable racket, and surprisingly also very stable. I was able to hit terrific shots and take huge risks with unexpected success. It was enjoyable.I wanted to make sure that this was not a "placebo" or "brand" effect given all the hype this racket has. So I tested it again vis á vis the other rackets, and indeed, it was at another level.It is still unclear to me how the new technology helped the racket, but this is ... MoreI got this demo because I am in search for a new racket.

Wilson Clash 100L

I have been playing with Wilson Prostaff from very long time now and decided to explore less stiff and bigger head size racquet. Clash seems to be good choice owing to arm-friendly and naturally good for top-spin. However, since recommended tension is less, you might see bit drop in accuracy. Got from Tennishub in really cheap price of 12k
