The Yonex Percept 97 Tennis Racket – Midnight Navy!

The Yonex Percept 97 is built for experienced and advanced tennis players who want a racket with precision, control, and outstanding feel. With a flexible frame and the latest Yonex technologies, it delivers spin, accuracy, and confidence in every shot.

This model introduces a sleek Midnight Navy design and combines proven Yonex engineering with new innovations that enhance string movement and snapback – giving players access to the highest spin potential in Yonex history.

Key Features:

ISOMETRIC™ head shape: Yonex’s square frame design creates a *7% larger sweet spot for greater forgiveness and consistent control.
Flexcon System: Elongated, tapered shaft built with Flex Force and Flex Fuse graphite for precise ball placement.
Servo Filter: Increases dwell time on the strings for more pocketing and feel.
2G-NAMD Flex Force graphite: Delivers faster snapback for extra spin and ball acceleration.
Selective Vibration Dampening: Transparent film filters out unwanted vibrations while keeping feedback crisp.
Stiffened racket face: Added graphite stabilises the frame at contact, improving shot control.

FAQs

Q: What level of player is the Percept 97 best for?

It’s designed for experienced and advanced players who can consistently hit the sweet spot and want maximum control with added spin potential.

Q: How does the Percept 97 compare to the Percept 100?

The Percept 97 has a smaller head size and heavier frame, giving it more precision and stability, while the Percept 100 offers a slightly larger sweet spot and more forgiveness.

Q: Does this racket come pre-strung?

No, Yonex rackets at this level are usually sold unstrung so players can customise their string type and tension. We are currently offering a stringing promotion with this frame, which takes between 3 to 5 additional working days. To take up this offer, just add the racket to your cart and add the promotion to the order.

---------------

*This latest YONEX racket comes custom strung with Luxilon Element at mid-range tension, at no extra cost.

To claim this offer:

Add the racket to your cart.
Add the promotion to your order.
There will also be a Racket Preparation pop-up with a drop-down asking you to select your own string, click ‘NO THANKS’ to this option as this is for custom stringing only.

Custom Stringing

Want a specific string or tension? Simply use the Racket Preparation drop-down to choose your custom string and tension.

If you select both the promotional offer and a custom string, only your chosen custom stringing will apply, as the promotional offer is an inclusive stringing service rather than a set of strings.

Please note: the string colour and stencil shown in the product image are for illustration purposes only. Custom strung rackets will be strung with either your selected strings or the promotional offer, which may differ from the image.

For further assistance, please email info@playerssports.co.nz

As a guide only, please allow for 3 – 5 working days for stringing services to be completed.

Take a ruler and vertically align the edge with your third (ring) finger and the bottom of the ruler in line with the joint where your thumb meets your hand.
Your grip size is then determined by the length between the tip of your third finger to the point where your thumb meets your palm.
