What is the best way to leave the battery if not in use. Mines is currently at 97% batt life. I've had it for 3 months now

I drain mine to below 50% if I'm not going to use them within two days and for an extended period of time. I also have the auto-discharge (you can set it using the GO app) set to three days in case I'm delinquent.
Mine are about the same age, and each has been charged 10-15 times (3 packs) - all remain at 100%.

You should also know that -- or you may already know it
Battery life references on the battery status screen refers to the total capacity that the battery is able to be charged to. If it shows 97% when fully charged then the battery that battery has lost 3% of it maximum charge capacity. When you store the battery-- store it at a charged voltage of 50 per cent or less-- that is separate from Battery Life.
Fly it down to 50% and let it rest.
If you can't fly, on IOS you may use the SIM.
& Set the App battery parameters to your liking.

I leave them at 50%.
If I charge and don't go out and fly I'll take it out in the backyard and fly to 50% then store. I don't like to store the battery above 50% for more than 2-3 days.

No -- they will actually protect the battery and should give it a longer longevity.
