These two are hard to separate
Every derived index is within a few points. Our scores come from spec sheets, and spec sheets can't capture feel — at this margin the honest answer is that you should demo both rather than trust a number.
Analysis
Where they actually differ
Only differences big enough to matter are listed. Anything inside the margin of an estimate is left out.
- Face
- Raw carbon against Toray carbon — the main driver of the spin difference.
- Handle
- Dunlop TT three V1 has the longer handle at 5.3" — the deciding factor if you hit a two-handed backhand.
