The short answer

Buy the TFight 300S if you want a 98 square inch control racquet that is a little lighter and quicker than the usual 305 gram frames. It costs $313.95 unstrung, which is less than its Wilson, Babolat and Yonex rivals. If you hit flat and want maximum control, the 305S is the better TFight. If you want a softer feel, the Wilson Blade 98 v10 is the one to compare it with.

Who it suits, and who should skip it

Good for you if

  • You are a strong intermediate or advanced player who wants control without a heavy racquet.
  • You hit with topspin. The 16x19 pattern and 98 head give good spin for a control frame.
  • You play a lot of doubles. At 300 grams and 6 points head light it is quick at the net.
  • You like a crisp, direct feel rather than a soft one.
  • You want a 98 square inch frame under $320. It is $313.95.

Skip it if

  • You are a beginner. A 98 square inch head punishes late contact.
  • You hit flat and hard and want the densest control. The 305S with its 18x19 pattern is the better fit.
  • You want a flexible, plush feel. The Blade 98 v10 at about 61 RA is softer.
  • You want free power. The TFight gives back what you put in.

From the baseline. It is a control frame first. The 98 square inch head keeps the ball where you aim it, and the 16x19 pattern gives enough spin to swing freely. The 300 gram weight means you can take a full cut without the racquet feeling slow.

Feel. At about 64 RA it is a little firmer than a Blade and a little softer than a Pure Strike. The response is clean and direct, with less of the flex you feel on a Wilson.

At the net. This is where the lighter weight pays off. It is quick to position and the head light balance makes volleys easy.

Against pace. Five grams lighter than a 305 gram frame is a small difference, but very hard hitters may want the extra mass of the 305S.

Choose the 300S for spin, a quicker swing and the lower price. Choose the 305S if you hit flat, want the ball to come off low and predictable, and do not mind a slightly heavier swing.

TFight 300S or the older TFight 300

The TFight 300 without the S is the previous Isoflex generation. It is still a good racquet, and we still have it, but it is a different frame.

The current 300S has the smaller 98 head and is the more precise racquet. The older TFight 300 has a 100 square inch head, which is a little more forgiving. Most players looking at the TFight today should buy the 300S.

How it compares with the Blade 98 and the Pure Strike 98

The TFight 300S competes with the two best known 98 square inch control racquets, the Wilson Blade 98 v10 and the Babolat Pure Strike 98. Here they are side by side.

The TFight is the lightest and the cheapest of the three, and it is the quickest to swing. The Blade is the softest and gives the most feel; we have a full Blade 98 v10 review. The Pure Strike is the firmest and flattest. If you are not sure, the TFight 300S is the easiest of the three to live with.

Questions players ask

What is the difference between the TFight 300S and the 305S?
Five grams and the string pattern. The 300S weighs 300 grams with a 16x19 pattern. The 305S weighs 305 grams with an 18x19 pattern, a slightly heavier swing weight and a balance one point further toward the handle. The 305S is the more controlled, flatter-hitting racquet. The 300S is a little quicker and gives more spin.
What is the difference between the TFight 300 and the TFight 300S?
The TFight 300 without the S is the earlier Isoflex generation and has a 100 square inch head. The 300S is the current generation with a 98 square inch head, a 6 point head light balance and a slightly softer frame at about 64 RA. Both weigh 300 grams. The 300S is the one to buy today.
Is the TFight 300S good for intermediate players?
Yes, for a strong intermediate who already swings fully. It is a 98 square inch control racquet, so it asks for clean contact, but at 300 grams it is 5 grams lighter than most of its rivals and easier to handle. A beginner should not start here.
Does the TFight 300S come strung?
No. It is sold unstrung. We string it in store, usually ready the next day, from $19.95 when you buy the racquet from us.
What tension should I use on the TFight 300S?
The recommended range is 48 to 55 pounds, which is 22 to 25 kilograms. We suggest 50 to 52 pounds with a polyester string as a starting point.
Is the TFight 300S good for spin?
Yes. The 16x19 pattern and the 98 square inch head give good spin for a control racquet. We rate its spin potential 8.5 out of 10, which is higher than the 305S at 8.
How does the TFight 300S compare with the Wilson Blade 98?
They are both 98 square inch control frames. The Blade 98 v10 is 5 grams heavier, balanced evenly and more flexible at about 61 RA. The TFight 300S is lighter, more head light and a little crisper at about 64 RA. Players who want a softer, more connected feel pick the Blade. Players who want a quicker, more direct frame pick the TFight.
