I've recently gotten back into the game, and have gotten into some racquetholism. After using the YouTek IG Radical MP, and then Graphene Prestige MP as a junior, I came back, and thought I'd look for something more powerful than the latter of these to get back into it. I demoed some racquets, and ended up with the Speed Pro and Prestige Pro auxetic. In the end, I found the Prestige Pro more fun to play with, so that's been my weapon of choice for the last 3 months.
However, I'm very curious to try one of the two racquets in the title, and possibly the Gravity Pro (which I haven't tried). My favourite thing about the Prestige is the flex, thin beam, and HL balance, which give it that surgical precision, maneuverability/aerodynamicness, and feel. Nevertheless, I would like to have the option of playing with a slightly more forgiving frame, maybe even a bit crisper, when I feel like it. I have tried the Pro Staff, and while it was a nice racquet, I found it too crisp, powerful, and erratic. It seems like the VCore 95 might be something between the Prestige Auxetic and the Pro Staff? But then there's the control-stick in the Yonex line-up, the VCore pro, which nevertheless seems to still be crisper and more forgiving than more old-school control-frames like the (modern) Prestige?
Edits: I have a two-handed BH, and don't have the opportunity to demo any of these 2 frames.
