Prince’s Phantom Pro 100<\/strong> and Phantom 100P<\/strong> are mainly aimed at intermediate to advanced players who like a racket that offers great feel and control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Racket Specs Comparison – Prince Phantom Pro 100 vs 100P<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

For this racket comparison, I used the 2020 Version of the Phantom Pro 100<\/strong> (or Pro “100”) and the 2020 Version of the Phantom 100P<\/strong> (or “100P”).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both the Phantom Pro 100<\/strong> and the 100P<\/strong> have the same racket head size (100in), length (27in), balance (6 pts HL), string pattern<\/a> (16×18), and a beam width<\/a> of 20.5mm \/ 19.5mm \/ 16.5mm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In terms of differences, the 100P<\/a> is the heavier of the two frames as it is 3g heavier in terms of its strung weight (326g vs 323g<\/strong>) and 8g heavier in terms of swing weight (328 vs 320<\/strong>) when compared with the Pro 100.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 100P is also stiffer than the Pro 100 (54 vs 59<\/strong>) but both frames would be considered to have a low stiffness rating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recommendations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The kind of player that is most likely to enjoy playing with these tennis rackets is likely to be an intermediate to advanced player who has a full swing and good technique on their forehand<\/a> and backhand<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In my opinion, these rackets will not suit a beginner<\/a> as they are relatively heavy frames with small sweet spots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These rackets are also a good option if you have had issues with tennis elbow or other arm issues in the past as they both have low frame stiffness ratings<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In terms of which of these two tennis rackets is the best, my preference would be the Pro 100 as it has a lower swing weight and stiffness rating so it will be the easier of the two to play with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
