Overview

The Franklin C45 Hayden Patriquin in 16mm takes the same elongated, pro-designed frame and softens it for control. Extended reach with a plush, planted feel, made for players who want spin and all-court touch without giving up the length.

How it plays

The elongated shape keeps your reach long on drives and overheads, while the thicker 16mm PowerFlex core calms the face down for cleaner resets and a more forgiving sweet spot. The 45-degree T700 raw carbon still bites for heavy spin, but the feel is softer and more controlled than the 14mm.
