Side-by-side comparison using independent TWU lab measurements
ℹ️ Different head sizes (100 vs 98 sq in) — this affects power and forgiveness independently of the other specs.
Aggregated spec scores
Scores calculated from TWU RA, weight, head size and string pattern.
Lab data comparison
Measurements from Tennis Warehouse University (TWU)
RA Stiffness — lower = more flex & comfort
Weight — higher = more stability
Swingweight — higher = more plow-through momentum
Head Size — larger = more forgiving
Choose the Clash 100 v3 if…
Arm-sensitive players, comfort-first
Very flexible — max comfort (RA 54)
Choose the VCORE 98+ (2021) if…
Aggressive baseliners, heavy topspin players
Medium — balanced (RA 66)
🎵 String strategy for each frame
These are different rackets — they deserve different string setups.
Clash 100 v3
Very flexible frame (RA 54) — arm-friendly. Pair with a crisp co-poly like Luxilon ALU Power Rough at 54–58 lbs to add control and prevent the string bed feeling too elastic.
VCORE 98+ (2021)
Balanced stiffness (RA 66). A mid-stiffness co-poly like Babolat RPM Team or Wilson Revolve at 52–56 lbs gives a comfortable all-court setup without sacrificing spin or control.
⚖️ Specs Equalizer
Can I make these specs match?
To match the swingweight of the VCORE 98+ (2021) (SW 334), add 20g of lead tape at the 12 o'clock position on the Clash 100 v3. This raises its swingweight from 308 to approximately 334 kg·cm².
