the prestige pro has more power and is better for serve I think, but for the rest, I prefer the yonex, more stable, more comfortable, better spin and control, more maneuvrable.

I prefer the yonex, no doubt

Also keep in mind that the Prestige is listed at 98, but it's actually 95 because Head measures the whole head including the frame. Other companies don't.

I agree, it's that why prestige are a bit difficult to play compared to other 98sq

oh... so the headsize of prestige pro is actually more or less the same as Volkl PB10mid, which was quoted as 93 but is actually 95?

I think it's been pointed out before that including the frame would make for a lot more than 3 sq in. (try it!).

I don't know how accurate the "95" designation generally is, but I do know that the Prestige 98 size is a tiny bit larger than the K6.1 95 headsize (an extra sliver at the throat).
