Welcome to the game!! Thank you for your support and always happy to help! 👍

If there's no budget concern, definitely I'm getting 99 Pro, but given a lower budget version Tour which has similar aesthetic and descent performance, Tour definitely is another good choice.

IDK if it’s just me, but I had the opportunity to hold a few of the same 99Pro in a shop, all being the same 4U model and each felt like it had a different balance point (some head heavier than others), might be another factor to consider when picking up one! Loved the video!

It depends how the racket is gripped. If it has anything on other than the bare original wrap on, the feeling will change too.

I will never understand how some people just pick any racket ,play with it and don't even know the Name of the Racket.!! I don't even plan to buy a new racket currently but here I am still Watching every New racket review 😂😂

Hey yew, I don't know if you have noticed or not but I have been following your channel quite a lot recently and the quality of your videos is amazingly well along with your astute judgement. I am looking for a racket and that's why I watched your recent videos on 88D pro, 99 pro and 100zz over and over again but I am still clueless. Why don't you do a comparison video between the three flagships for Astrox series in one single video? this is only a suggestion and I have no intention to put any sort of pressure.

Yea i would really agree on the string matter more then the racket it self. and i don't think that the high end racket gives u the power and control more then a good string will provide so if u got the budget then go for those high end racket but if u dont then just go for the entry level one but always use the best string that suits u the best...

Interesting that almost everyone preferred the Pro versions, are these players on the university team or just casual players? I'm a low-intermediate doubles player currently using an 88S Game and looking to step up to something with a bit more power, either the 88D or 100. Do you think the Game, Tour, or Pro versions of these rackets would be the best for me, if budget isn't an issue? Thanks!

Since you said low intermediate level. I think 100 will be less forgiving for you. From S to D/ZZ is a two different animal. If budget isn’t issue of course go to Pro models, but I met several players bought Pro version but unable to maximize the potential of the racket due to the extra stiff and poor string tension and choice. You better try it out first in the real game whether it fit your game play or not. Otherwise, that will be waste of money.

I hope you make a video about cheap but decent racquet and review them to give viewers advice

*TLDR: I would choose the highest end option of a model lineup that fits my preference* Honestly, I'm too neurotic and have a bad case of FOMO; I'll still get a 99 pro even if it meant I had to wait a really long time just for the peace of mind of knowing that it's the highest quality choice in the lineup. This is all after considering the lineup's properties, and how well it fits my play of course

To me the word Pro is a give away that's the most expensive. However is the difference in performance worth the $? I'm not sure what's Yonex marketing strategy.
