At this stage in your badminton “life” you cannot make a wrong decision. When you have gained a lot more experience, improved your skill, then you will in a position to consider your next purchase and have a better idea of your preferences.

You'd be just as wise to invest in coaching rather than another racket. The return on investment is significantly better and save you so much heartache and potential injury in the future.

Good luck

Paul

Well, this works very well for me: V7, BG65Ti @ 10kg, extra grip. Using it for a year now. Cost me 74€, which is half a 70 or 80.

All the best, ED

Thanks for the reply Ed ,But i just saw it late I went ahead With Ultra Carbon(UC)3920, As both racquets of my choice voltric,UC were heavy heads i though an Unstrung bat would help me in going with a more finer choices …But thanks for your valuable time in looking into the thread and hope as Paul said it doesn’t all matter for a first buy .

I am soon going to start with my training and would bump on u guys in this forum more often for more queries and learning the technical aspects of the game

I am looking to get it Strung with a BG65 @21lbs hope this is good for a beginner ,Currently i am looking at Hitting Sound Aspect as i feel it might be the sound of encouragement at this primary stage …If i am the wrong side of though please do advise thanks again

Thanks,

Somu
