      @@CH-yp5by i understand what you mean, but all the Babolat rackets are stiff and mostly meant for power. The pure strike is its the most controlled line of Babolat with a much denser string pattern than the ezone, that's why i put it in the vcore pro, blade cat. But i agree that that is a bit of a stretch.

    Currently own the vcore 98 and have been playtesting the vcore pro 97 (310) extensively and here is what O have found:
    Vcore pro:
    - amazing feel
    - ball pocketing is outstanding
    - solid power with full swings on ground strokes
    Serving with the heavier weighted handle takes some getting used to compared to the vcore 98
    - super plush and comfortable (no dampener needed)
    - much sturdier at net compared to the vcore 98
    - a bit tough to get around the ball on extensions
    With that said, I am about to make the official switch to the vcore pro 97…too many positives outweigh the slightly heavier downsides when compared to the vcore 98. Great review Harry

      @@brucezidane Hi. I demoed VC98 only once, so I cannot give a strong opinion. It played similar to PA VS 98 (my previous racquet), but felt a bit weird, I reckon because of the isometric shape? VC95, having a smaller head (and quite round), felt perfect. The head is smaller, so it is quite whippy, serves, volleys, touch shots are great. Compared with the 98, it feels less powered, and more controlled and maneuverable. I did not feel any discomfort because of the smaller head size. I use 2HBH, so I can't tell you how it feels for 1HBH, but many reviews say it is great. Finally, the head feels a bit too light, so I added 4 grams at 6 and 9 for more stability. To summarize the answer to your questions: head size no problem, it is less powered and more controlled and whippy, I don't know about 1HBH. And the most important advice: demo before buying!

VCore is a bit more arm friendly. PA VS gives you a bit more spin in my opinion. If a rally with a big hitter, I use PA VS; if I play a match, I use VCore 95, I don't need all that power, and for sure I miss less

    VCORE PRO is least power of the 3. both the EZONE and VCORE are similar in power levels. the ezone strings are a denser pattern and will give you a flatter launch angle. conversely vcore is more open and gives you higher launch, more spin but can feel launchy compared to denser pattern.

    • @MrMSS22
      @MrMSS22 2 роки тому +1

      If a tighter pattern resulted in both a better control and better bite, there wouldn’t be any reason for a more open pattern. A more open pattern allows the ball to sink in deeper and increases the contact time. Thus, given the same movement, a more open pattern benefits spin, no matter whether it is backspin (slice) or topspin.

      Vcore pro I think. I strung my pro 97 hd at 52 and it's much softer than my friends ezone98 at 47. We both agreed and we both have some arm issues. Ezone also has a bigger launch angle, which I don't like. (I'm not sure if that is because of the 18x20 string pattern or just a general difference) Vcore pro does require you to swing harder/better technique, because it has less power. I think dropping my tension considerably to 48/46 will help with that.

      I wouldn't ever get rid of a DR98 if you like it.
      I owned the previous 2020 Ezone 98 and thought it was a bit of a plank - sold; 2022 Ezone supposed to be improved though so perhaps worth a demo.
      I like the Vcore 98 a lot but it's very, very different to my DR98; Vcore is firmer, faster through the air, more powerful and provides more spin; overall more 'attacking' perhaps.
      Haven't hit any 97inch Vcore Pros (only the previous generation 100, which was lovely and had some of that soft-solid feel of the DR98 I love with a touch more easy power and spin).
      hth... demo demo demo!

      Honestly the Vcore Pro 97 is amazing for control. You just need to be able to generate your own power. For me, the Ezone 98 2022 makes the balls fly, the Vcore Pro is more controlled and stays in the court.

    I tried these three racquets when friends had them to demo at our local park. Although, I liked them and they were fun. I would not give up my RF Prostaff 11.1 or RF97V13 for any of these three. I'd like to try the vcore 95.
    Harry, aside from the smaller head size, what is the difference between the VCore 95 and my Yonnex 93 sq inch RD Impact Speed 100? Do they have similar frame technology in the head and yoke?

      Aloha! I did not actually say the RF sticks were better but they did better fit my play style.
      . Comparatively speaking, the RF97V13 is in a different class by itself due to the heavier weight, much more head lightness, bigger swing wt and stiffer frame. Thus, there is access to more stability, more power, more plow through, controlled launch angle, serve kick ability and top spin due to the 16x19 string pattern.
      . The Ezone frame felt to big, to unyielding and lacked enough control for me. I didn't like the thicker frame and it's benefits.
      . The Vcore 98 was a spin monster with shaped string and had a crazy high launch angle. It was fun! Yet, it had less control, lighter plow through and a bit less stable for high power hitting engagements.
      . The 97 Vcore's tighter 16x20 string pattern did not suit me. But, I did like the way it swings.
      So, the demo of the three was actually beneficial because it reinforced what I liked in my racquet. But, although I did not fall in love with another racquet. I found a strong like for shaped string which I have not used in my RF97V13 to date. Now, i have the string and cannot wait to use it as a hybrid(Luxilon rough ALU Power, Luxilon Element Rough with Luxilon VIBE). I might have to use a more aggressive shaped string. But, Finding a new wrinkle to exploit is the best part of the demo experiences.😊.

    Great post! I have been wondering about these three rackets. I am using the Head Speed Pro (smooth and solid hitting racquet)from Pure Strike 3rd gen (easier for angles and spin) and looking for something in-between, which would you suggest Ezone 98 or Vcore 98? I demoed the new Vcore Pro 100 and it felt solid and awesome, however, it was lacking power on serve.

    • @anacap007
      @anacap007 2 роки тому +1

      The 97D 320 might be what you're looking for. It has a 18x20 pattern and I have this and the Speed Pro (2018 version) and they're very similar but the launch angle for the Yonex is flatter with more pace. Same thing for serves.

    Just did'n explained one main point, that the denser spacing in the Ezone means more control for flat hitters and less spin and launch angle compared to vcore98.
    And please learn the name of the racquets you are selling.
    It's Vcore Pro 97. It's confusing when you call it Vcore 97 Pro, because the Family is Vcore Pro, Vcore and Ezone, and Pro is not one kind of Vcore.
    97, 97H, 97D... are in the Vcore Pro line, and not 97 Pro in the Vcore line.

    My general understanding is that yonex marketed these racquets like this…
    Pro: feel/control
    Vcore: spin
    Ezone: power
    Babolat does the same with pure strike, aero, and drive. Wilson also with blade/prostaff, burn, and ultra. Don’t know about Head because they are confusing.

    • @snipa2116
      @snipa2116 2 роки тому +7

      they do not matchup at all. I have played with all yonex and babolat racquets. Yonex doesn't really make power racquets, they are all control racquets with diff variations. Vcore pro is feel, vcore is spin and ezone is flat. the ezone gets mistaken for a power racquet but its honestly not in the 98 version.... 100 version maybe u can call it somewhat of a power racquet.
