In my quest to find more arm friendly racquet than the youtek prestige pro, I have demoed several racquets so far (various dunlops bios, prestige ig mp, radical ig mp, volkls, prokennexes), but I am yet to find a racquet that I like as much. The next set I will demo are these two Yonex racquets and the IG version of the prestige pro. Any thoughts on how these compare? I guess I want the same power/spin/precision of prestige pro in a (slightly) more arm friendly racquet.
Compare prestige pro with vcore 97 and 95D

I hit more towards the top of the stringbed and with spin, so the vcore 95d hurts my arm, even with gut mains.
Just something to think about..if you hit flatter and dead center, the vcore 95 is absolutley an amazing racquet. I truly love mine and may keep it just to have in the bag.

I have played with Kblade 98 for a few years and Prestige Pro for a year without any arm issues. Some slight arm twinges have happened in recent months though with prestige pro.
I don't know where in the string-bed I hit mostly
That is very hard for me to say. Of course, I try to middle everything. BTW - I have a very topspin oriented groundstrokes and hit pretty hard and deep with a westernish grip on forehand, and eastern 1hbh. I mostly stay at the baseline.
Sounds like 95D will be a good demo for me. How about the vcore 97 tour?

I heard and read in the review that it has a lot of power. Not too much for a flat hitter such as me? Aren't balls sailing long? For example, I have this problem with the Wilson sixone 95.. and this one is rated higher concerning power.

No it's not too much power. It hits a real heavy ball but it is a stick meant for flat hitters. It is a little lower powered than a Wilson 6.1 and also easier to use.

The 95d is completely goating head and shoulders above the prestige pro...
thanks! which string steup will make the 95D as much low powered as possible, without using poly (arm problems)? Head RIP control at 57 for example?
