YONEX VCORE 98 2023 STRUNG TENNIS RACQUET

With its redesigned beam and softer feel, the 2023 VCORE 98
continues it’s reign as one of the game’s most well-built player’s
racquets. Like previous versions, this is a speedy spin monster with
great ball feedback. Offering easier power than the VCORE 95, the VCORE
98 gives you the benefit of a larger margin of error without sacrificing
the precision that experienced players crave. It’s also extremely fast,
making it great for cranking winners on the run or reacting quickly at
net. For 2023 Yonex overhauls the ISOMETRIC head shape by creating an
even roomier, more luxurious hitting zone in the upper hoop. The payoff
is a more forgiving and stable hitting experience, with an expanded spin
window and juicier levels of power. Yonex has also recontoured the
VCORE shaft and made slight tweaks to the beam throughout the frame.
Other new features include SIF Grommets, which deploys a
silicone oil infusion to reduce the friction between the string and
grommet. The upshot is greater string movement for increased snapback
and more vicious ball rotation. Yonex has also lowered the RA, giving
this stick an even more buttery feel at impact. Like the previous
generation, this racquet benefits from 2-NAMD FlexForce Graphite in the upper shaft and lower hoop, enabling the racquet to deflect and snapback effectively through impact. Ultimately, this redesigned VCORE 98 checks all the right boxes. Experienced players looking for spin, precision and feel should give this one a very serious look.
