YONEXAstrox 99 Play Badminton Racket (White Tiger) (4UG5) (Pre-Strung)

I like the tension and single body frame. I've played with more expensive versions that are a bit lighter, but this one fit my budget and intermediate skill level. Once you're more comfortable competing against higher level players, it makes sense to upgrade from this. But as a starter this is a good racket!

This racket is great for new users, very lightweight, easier to learn

I recently upgraded to use a head heavy racket and based on the reviews I got this one. I'd like I'm really happy with this purchase. I have seen improvement in my smash power. The precision and power is exceptional for the price. Also the string tension was optimal and I'm able to get a good mix of power and control. It did take me 2 weeks to used to it as my previous racket was head light. If you have good practice and can hit the sweet spot consistent and you are an intermediate player, then you can make the most of this racket.

Received today in a sturdy box but after opening so shocked to see the handle is broken into pieces. Never buy this. Worst experience.

The Frame itself is relatively light but solid. You might not feel the spring to be as High Tenstion like others, however I think the Frame and Spring as Advertised help to Take Control of the Court. Which help to absorb some Speed from Opponent when you receive hit. I found this useful when my Opponent love smashing, then I can Return a Softer Weaker Hit send to thr front line or Empty Area to win. Of course, personal skill is a factor too but this racket do help!

Does not come with the right tension.

This racket gives me the power to kill the game! I like it!

The product is the same as the description. With racket bags included, I don't have to worry about it, during shipping. However, I would recommend Amazon place some airbags to prevent any unforeseen damages during shipping because I was nervous when I opened the package. Well, luckily, mine's delivered perfectly.
