The Percept 97D boasts a dense 18x20 string pattern, providing exceptional control over ball placement and trajectory. This dense pattern, combined with a 97 square inch head size, allows players to confidently hit with power and precision, generating heavy spin and pinpoint accuracy. The racquet's flexible frame further enhances feel, providing exceptional feedback on every shot.

Yonex has incorporated innovative technologies to ensure exceptional stability and comfort. Vibration Dampening Mesh (VDM) in the handle minimizes unwanted vibrations, providing a cleaner feel upon impact. This technology, combined with FlexForce graphite, enhances comfort and reduces the risk of arm fatigue during long matches.

Despite its control-oriented design, the Percept 97D remains surprisingly maneuverable. Weighing in at 11.3 ounces unstrung, it offers a good balance of stability and swing speed. The 310 mm balance point provides a head-light feel, allowing for quick reactions and effortless swings. This maneuverability is crucial for aggressive baseliners who need to react quickly and generate racquet head speed for powerful shots.

The Yonex Percept 97D is the perfect weapon for advanced players who dictate play from the baseline. Its exceptional control, feel, and stability allow for aggressive shot-making, generating heavy spin and penetrating shots.
