This manual provides essential information regarding the setup, operation, maintenance, and specifications of your new racquet to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

The precise engineering of the Yonex VCORE frame allows for versatile racquet movement and reduced air resistance, designed to help players generate penetrating, heavy topspin shots.

Setup

Your Yonex VCORE 100+ racquet typically arrives pre-strung with your chosen synthetic gut string color at mid-tension. No complex assembly is required to begin using your racquet.

Grip Inspection: Ensure the grip is securely wrapped and comfortable for your hand size. Grip sizes are available from 1 to 5.
String Inspection: Before first use, visually inspect the strings for any signs of damage or uneven tension.

Operating the Racquet

The Yonex VCORE 100+ is designed for advanced players seeking a balance of spin, speed, and control. Its key technologies contribute to an enhanced playing experience.

ISOMETRIC™ Technology: The unique square-shaped ISOMETRIC™ head design increases the sweet spot by 7% compared to conventional round frames. This optimizes the intersection of main and cross strings, delivering greater control without sacrificing power.
Spin and Speed: The racquet's construction, including HM Graphite / 2G-Namd Flex Force / VDM materials, is engineered to provide ample access to spin and reduce air resistance for faster swings.
Targeted Performance: With a 16x19 string pattern and a strung weight of 11.1 ounces (300g unstrung), this racquet offers excellent plow-through on off-centered shots, making it ideal for players who hit out on the ball and generate heavy topspin.

Maintenance

Proper maintenance will extend the life and performance of your Yonex VCORE 100+ racquet.

Storage: Store your racquet in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures (both hot and cold). Extreme temperatures can affect frame integrity and string tension.
Grip Care: Keep the grip clean and dry. If the grip becomes worn or slippery, consider replacing the overgrip or the base grip for optimal feel and control.
String Care: Strings lose tension over time and with use. For consistent performance, consider restringing your racquet regularly. The recommended stringing tension is 45 - 60 lbs.
Frame Inspection: Periodically inspect the racquet frame for any cracks, chips, or deformities. Small chips can often be cosmetic, but cracks may indicate structural damage requiring professional assessment.

Troubleshooting

Problem	Possible Cause	Solution
Broken Strings	Normal wear and tear, impact, or stringing at too high tension.	Restring the racquet. Consider professional restringing to ensure proper tension and knotting.
Loss of Power/Control	String tension loss, worn grip, or frame damage.	Check string tension and restring if necessary. Replace grip. Inspect frame for damage.
Racquet Feels Unbalanced	Incorrect grip size, or balance point altered by customization (e.g., lead tape).	Ensure correct grip size. If customized, verify balance point. Consult a tennis professional.
