Which one suits you

Pick the Neuron if

You want to spend less: it is £9 cheaper delivered today (£296.99 against £305.99).
You want more control and a bigger sweet spot: a hybrid head is more forgiving on off-centre hits.
You swing fast and want a crisper response: the core is firmer.

Pick the Vertex 05 if

You want more power: a diamond head puts the sweet spot higher, which helps smashes and volleys.
You want a bit more give: the core is medium rather than hard, so it is less harsh on off-centre hits.

Not a factor, because they are the same on both: balance (both medium), weight, level (both professional).
