Comments: I'm returning to tennis after several years and wanted to invest in a quality racquet. I came across this one based on the videos describing it's features. I even called the racquet specialist to get advice on what strings and tension I should get. He was very helpful and guided me in the right direction. I tried it out last week and I felt like a whole new player! It's super light, versatile and has a great grip! I'm very excited to continue to play and refine my game. I would recommend to returning players like myself!

Comments: I'll be honest, I wanted to give the Ultra another try based on how beautiful the cosmetic looked and just reading all the reviews on it. I had the previous version, V3, and it was everything everyone was saying; very stiff and just more cons than pros about it. I finally tested this V4 and the moment you bounce/dribble the ball on the racquet, you feel and hear the stiffness of the ball bouncing off the string for sure. During match play, this racquet is all about the POWER we've all seen it being advertised. There is such great power on this racquet, its almost like the moment you know you're about to hit a good groundstroke from generating your own pace and momentum, your forehand/backhand will be unreturnable and its so satisfactory with this V4. I've seen and read other reviews saying it can be unsteady/unstable. I didn't find this to be a problem. This racquet does give you the power rather than control, so sometimes my groundstrokes sailed, but that was my fault for overhitting flat shots at times and people need to understand control comes from good technique and being able to hit good groundstrokes from the player, not the racquet itself. I didn't find the stiffness to be a problem either. It didn't cause elbow pain or vibration. Strung it with ALU Power @ 54lbs. Overall, I hit some groundstrokes that my opponents were not able to return when I had the momentum and pace, but this racquet benefits more from top spin than flat shots. The V4 is more for players that want more power in their groundstrokes that know how to control shots on their own with technique and not think to rely solely on the racquet like the V8 Blade.

Comments: This racquet is spectacular- a word I've never used before in a review of anything. If you want spin and controllable power, and you use an ATP forehand (semi-western or western grip), and you can handle a very stiff racquet this is the one. I have never played with a racquet that better encourages big hitting and an extreme topspin grip and stroke. The more you commit to an ATP topspin stroke, the more the ball spins and dives back inside the baseline. My hitting partner and I took turns murdering the ball and we just could not hit the ball long, because the harder we hit, the more the ball spun and dove inside the lines. We could control angles and precisely place the ball. Beautifully engineered! He (young, 5.0+ tournament player) is switching to this racquet. I (50's, 4.5) would like to but won't because I know that a 70 RA is too stiff for my old arm. The only drawback is that it's very stiff- you immediately can feel that it's a 70 RA. Wilson has done a good job of engineering the shock out of it, so unlike the Ultra v3 (which I didn't like at all), I did not feel jarring or vibration, despite not using a dampener of any kind, but it's very obvious from the first hard-hit ball that the frame is not assisting you with ball-pocketing. Instead, you must control your shots with spin. I am not normally a fan of Wilson racquets but this one makes me wish I had a younger man's arm.

Comments: Strung with Tour Bite 16 gauge at 52 lbs. Awesome racquet. I play with the 2021 Pure Drive with same string set up. Very similar. The ultra has a bit lighter feel, like head light, but has easy access to spin and power like the Pure Drive. The Ultra does feel like it flexes a bit more than the Pure Drive. It's not as stiff. Some like that, some don't but it would probably be easier on the arm than the Pure Drive. I love my Pure Drive but the Ultra was a lot of fun to hit with. Great racquet.
