2020 Yonex EZONE GAME 98inch 16*19 270g

This model falls under the power segment, shaping how it delivers power, control, and feel on court. The 98 in² head size prioritizes precision and cleaner contact. A stiffness rating of 70 RA results in a firmer, more responsive feel at impact. With an unstrung weight of 270 g, the frame favors maneuverability. The 16x19 string pattern (semi open) influences spin access and launch angle. Performance-wise, it scores 100/100 for power, 80/100 for spin, and 60/100 for control, outlining its on-court behavior. Its characteristics suggest a higher potential for arm fatigue if paired with stiff strings. It is best suited for beginner intermediate players.

Player discussions often describe the Yonex Ezone line as a 'power-with-control' frame: lively and forgiving with a modern sweet spot. Comfort feedback is mixed—many find it playable and comfortable, while some report arm/wrist/shoulder irritation, often tied to how firm the overall setup feels. Overall sentiment: great all-around performance, but comfort can vary by player and configuration.
