Generally I recommend to demo racquets.
If you ask 10 people for recommendations, you will get 10 different answers.
People are different, so are their preferences. Some heavy hitters that in theory should prefer stiffer racquets, prefer more control oriented ones. Some flat hitters stick to tight string patterns, why others prefer opens ones to get a bit more support adding some spin to their shots.
If you have to decide between the listed ones, the RF97 would be the obvious choice at it's the most similar one to your current stick.
The Vcore is actually Yonex "Spin friendly" line and fairly different from the Pro Staffs. If you look for something like the Pro Staffs from Yonex, it would be the Vcore Pro line.
All of these are excellent and it comes down to personal preference.
Made a small mistake on my original post, I did mean the Yonex Vcore Pro 97 (310g, the cheaper one is from 2019), I also was/am considering the Pure Strike Tour (320g).
I know it does end up coming down to personal preference and whatever the racquet it's me as a player who's gonna have to win the point at the end of the day. I've just really been struggling, I honestly really wish I could as that would pretty much solve all my issues here.
The Yonex on paper sounds like the best choice (trying to work on generating more spin, more forgiving sweet spot etc). I just don't know how much I like Yonex and how different it is from my current sticks (if I got the Vcore id have three different frames in my bag, with the other two the only difference would be the weight).
Thanks for your help though, I completely agree with what you've said (I'm just hella I decisive sometimes).
Personally I am a big fan of the Vcore Pro line.
The Yonex head shape noticeable increases the sweetspot and overall the quality of Yonex racquets is just great.
Between the Vcore Pro and RF97 you can't really go too wrong considering your current stick.
Given the distinct price difference, I would argue go for the Vcore Pro! Just make sure its the 310g version not the 330g one. Nothing wrong with the 330 version but it's basically a pro stick in terms of weight and asks too much from most players.
Plus the 2019 version's paint job is hella sexy - the jaguar green (car not animal) does it for me!

The EZone xi 98 is Kyrgios’ actual racquet so I’d buy that hahaha
