    Vcore Pro 97 H vs Yonex Ezone 98 Tour

    Wanted more control and stability, DR100 is a great racquet but I definitely feel the 98 Tour can withstand harder hit balls

    Yonex Polytour Pro vs Gosen Sidewinder String Review

    So agree, he was the most talented member of IJ. It’s really not the same without him in any of the challengers ☹️

    Solinco Confidential/Vanquish Recommended Tension

    Just curious, what racquet do you use? I wonder if that string tension setup would be too powerful for an Ezone 98 Tour.

    Solinco Confidential/Vanquish Recommended Tension

    Hey guys, Just bought a reel of Solinco Vanquish to hybrid with my Solinco Confidential in Yonex Ezone 98 Tour and wondering what is a good tension for both. I typically use full bed Solinco Confidential in the range of 47-50 lbs. It is my first time using a hybrid setup and not sure if I...

    Yonex Polytour Pro vs Gosen Sidewinder String Review

    Currently using Solinco Confidential in a Yonex Ezone 98 Tour (2020) version. Thinking about switching to a softer poly/co-poly setup to preventatively maintain my arm so I don't get sidelined with tennis elbow/other arm injuries. I currently don't have any arm pain and love my current setup (I...

    Yonex Super Grap vs Gamma Supereme Overgrips Review

    Hey all, Currently using Yonex Super Grap overgrip (tacky version) and thinking about experimenting with other overgrips.

    Vcore 95 vs Ezone Tour

    I currently have a Yonex Ezone Tour and like it a lot so far. I’ve heard lots of good things about the VCore 95, namely the control afforded by smaller headsize and 16X20 string pattern. Just wondering how the two racquets compare against each other in groundstrokes, volleys, offense/defense...

    Gosen Sidewinder vs Polyon

    Hey guys, Looking to change from Solinco Confidential to a hybrid set-up in a 2020 Yonex Ezone 98 Tour. Heard a lot of good things about Gosen, interested in hybriding Gosen OG Sheep Micro 16 with either 17 gauge Polyon or Sidewinder. What are the differences between the strings and which one...

    Gosen Strings

    I have heard good things about Gosen Sidewinder and Gosen OG Sheep Micro Synthetic Gut. That is definitely an option I would consider for a hybrid for preventive maintenance of my elbow. Problem is I am not a string breaker and I have a reel of 17' Solinco Confidential to burn through :)

    Weighting Yonex Ezone 98 Tour at the Throat

    Hey everybody, I am looking to add some weight to my Yonex Ezone 98 Tour racquets to get them up to 340 grams (12 ounces). They are currently around 332 grams so I figure adding 8 grams of lead tape will do the trick. I do not want to change the balance, I like the 4 pts HL feel on my backhand...

    Yonex Polytour Pro vs. Solinco Confidential

    Thanks for your feedback. How would you describe Tour Bite and Hyper-G compared to both strings? I have gotten conflicted feedback on Solinco strings in comparison to each other. I have heard Polytour Pro is a great soft poly for control and spin.

    Best Tennis Shoes for Wide Feet

    Looking to try new tennis shoes (preferably Nike), I currently use Nike Cage (Rafa edition) but they are on the expensive side and the toe area on the left foot tends to get worn out faster than the sole. I tend to drag my left foot on my backhand which is most likely the reason why that...
