Head Boom: Deep Dive into the Racquet’s Features

Final Verdict:

Overall, true to its name, the Head Boom is a racquet designed for power. It's no surprise that players like Coco Gauff opt for this racquet. While it serves well as an all-round option, it truly excels as a go-hard or go-home type of racquet.

Power: 5/5

If you're seeking a racquet solely focused on power, this is the optimal choice! From my initial shots with this racquet, it was evident that it's designed for power. The name "Head Boom" perfectly captures its explosive nature.

Spin: 4.6/5

Given the considerable power in the racquet, it was expected to provide ample spin. However, it's not explicitly designed for spin, hence not achieving a higher spin rating.

Control/Touch: 4.3/5

In general, this racquet has the lowest control/touch rating within the Head range. Nevertheless, it still offers decent touch and feel. Compared to other Head racquets, it falls behind in this aspect. If you're specifically seeking a racquet designed for feel, I would recommend considering the Head Extreme or Babolat Pure Aero.
