I imagine quite a few people have turned to the dark side and see the appeal in spinny/powerful racquets. I think the options for this type are also more balanced, refined and attractive.
I also imagine that some are tired of so many racquets optimizing for that and want something more...
Yes I know there's not a huge fanbase XL racquets, but bear with me...
Currently playing with a Head Gravity MP XL and really like it with the exception of one major flaw in my opinion: put away capability at the net. I am also finding that my balls sail longer more often than I'd like...
Hey everyone,
I have discussed this in other threads before, but my eternal doubt remains.
I currently have a pair of VCORE 95 2023, customized with 4g at 3 and 9 o’clock, plus 2g at the throat. I also use a 0.8mm RED cushion grip and two Yonex overgrips. My swing weight is 331...
Hi, I was wondering if anyone has tried this hybrid either way? I have a reel of both these strings and am wondering which way would be more compatible with a vcore 98 v7.
Hi Guys I need your help
I need your help;
I have two VCORE 95 Rackets both with tape at 9 , 1 and 3 but I want to keep that.
But one is Grip size 3 and one 4
So I went to the Tennisshop and they made the smaller one bigger and now it’s also a size 4.
But the weight is 347 Gramms , 9 gramms...
The 2023 Vcore 95 has it pros and cons from the recreational side as we all know. Since no one (I could be wrong) is endorsing the frame on the Tour currently, should it be discontinued as a whole? Idk the numbers of sales come from that frame alone, but not many people I see use it. It’s either...
All, I just received results from matching service for VCORE 98. I would really appreciate your help in choosing best 2 out of the following 6, as it’s hard to make final choice.
Weight Swingweight Balance Stiffness
Racket 1: 304.8 284...
Curious to know how other people have set up their vcore 95 in terms of customization and string setups.
My current vcore is (unstrung) 330 g, 31.2 cm, 300 SW, and 14 TW. Strung currently with Restring Sync 1.25 at 23/22 kg
Hi, I’m a low-mid 4.0 and currently have a sand-beige vcore 98 coming in the mail soon. Just wondering what people would recommend/what they are currently using.
Playstyle - First strike agressive baseliner
Groundstrokes - Forehand can generate good amounts of spin, but tend to prefer hitting...
Ive put pure aero 98 in my virtual cart for next purchase, and I saw new PJ of vcore yesterday. It looks really great and unique color on market.
I wanted try out yonnex (ezone and vcore) but I couldn't bare their paints (not really my thing except percept. I like it but I have control racquets...
Didn't see any threads about the new upcoming vcore so wanted to post this.
I'm not 100% sure if its going to be only a cosmetic update or a new model entirely, but I can share one thing: All White.
No photos were allowed, but its a pretty sick looking frame.
Lets discuss what we want to see...
I'm considering switching to one of the vcore models, I've demoed both but the strings were both really bad and it wasn't the best experience
For people who've played with them, how do the following compare?
Spin
Ease of power
Sweet spot
Stability
for context I'm a 2.5 utr player
Hey guys! UTR 8 player here, competing in 5.0 USTA tournaments. Currently have been playing with head speed MP since 2016. Specs are 340g strung and 323sw.
Unfortunately the new speeds just aren’t for me. Constant cracking of frames during play.
I’m looking for a racquet that has similar level...
For the past four years I have used the Wilson Blade 98 v7, 18x20 with tour bite @53 and overall loved it and still love how it feels. However, as a now sophomore in college and a club tennis player (at a nationals qualifier I might add), I do not play as often as I was and am looking for a...
Has anyone measured the strung SW of their racquet in stock (no customs) ?
The SW of 321 on TW just doesn't make sense.
I'd say maybe a typo and supposed to be 312 which sounds much more reasonable but it's not first time I see a measured SW on TW that seems too high ... Vcore98 was 325 which is...
I'm looking to switch from my vcore pro 97 310 2021. I originally used the 2021 radical pro and switched to a few different racquets. Lately, I've been using the Vcore pro. I've found that it takes a lot of the spin that I produce on my forehands away and it's been killing my game. I like...
Ben spent the first half of the year playing with an Ezone and PolyTour Rev. In this photo he has a darker racquet with a green string.
Could be Vcore Pro with poly tour pro green?
Did somebody try all these racquets?
I am thinking of selling my speed mp and change to a 98” Yonex Racquet.
My level should be NTRP 4/4.5. Agressive Baseliner Gamestyle like Rybakina or Sabalenka.
I m looking for a sort of upgrade of the speed mp which i feel a little bit unstable when i hit...
Hello!
I just switched to the 2023 Yonex Vcore 95 and it plays pretty amazing. A racket that feels like an extension of my hand. Ground strokes are great and so much pop on the serve. The only thing that needs some fixes is the volley. It's not as stable on the volley thus I was going to put...
With the main VCore 2023 thread getting extremely long, use this thread to help people parse reviews. Keep discussion only to posts in the TW playtest thread review format.
I'll be getting my 98 in tomorrow to compare with the 2022 EZone 98.
Include the following in your review:
Which racquet...
I recently purchased two Yonex VCORE SV98 racquets off of ****, the first one I got came with a foam-filled handle so I assumed that was stock. Then the second one I ordered has a hollow handle, I'm assuming the first one I got was customized by someone, and Yonex didn't just forget to put foam...
Hello fellow tennis players,
Been using Radical S so far, and would like to go two ways to upgrade my racquets.
Current like: Serve Power, Precision
Current dislike: Stability, Sometime too powerful
Option 1: Add lead tape to increase stability, less power, more control.
Currently Radical...
For those who loved the Galaxy Black colorway but love the 2021 VCs better, Yonex is coming out with ltd editions again but this time in a black/grey/volt colorway. The volt accents are where the blue was on the OG red colorway. At this time, it looks like only VC100 and 100L will be available...
I have two racquets Yonex Vcore 98 tuned by a professional ATP stringer
Their specs are now identical:
<1g mass difference
<0.1 cm balance difference
I noticed that when I play with racquet #2 I do not play so well and I feel it's a tad less manouvreable.
I could not believe that I am able to...
Hi All,
It's my first post on the forums, even though I actively read a lot of stuff on here.
So, I've been playing tennis for about 2 years - twice a week. For most of that time I've been using the Vcore Pro 100 alpha - this is essentially a takedown version of VCP 100 but made in china and is...
Hi,
I would like to try this hybrid stringing and would appreciate some guidance before I waste too many meters of strings with experimenting. :)
Which one should go on the mains and what tension shall I use?
I would like to maximize spin&comfort.
So far I played mostly with full bed of Yonex...
I'm open to any of them from the 95 to the 101. Maybe leaning towards the 97 or 100. Seem to have a modern feel without being too "pure drive" like. Am I right in describing it that way?
I like a racket with great access to spin and pretty good feel. I have an ezone 98+ that I mostly like minus...
