Yonex Pro / Professional Badminton Rackets

About

So you’ve decided you’re looking for a pro / professional level Yonex Badminton Racket - well firstly, congratulations….because the worlds best players made the same decision. So many world number 1 players over the years have won tournament after tournament with Yonex rackets. Their top end rackets are truly custom and made over a 12 day period in Japan, placing the rackets in their Kilns and making sure every racket meets their extremely high standards. So how do you choose? Well at the top level there’s a number of more detailed factors to consider to identify the right racket for you. Firstly you’ll need to factor your type of game. If you play singles for example you’re more like to prefer stiff head heavy rackets like the Yonex Astrox 99 Racket for example.Singles rackets at the top level generally will be stiff, head heavy by nature with a good sense of touch and control. If you’re more a doubles player, then you need to factor 2 things, firstly are you the natural front or back player in your doubles partnership. Generally front court players will want rackets with better control and reaction speeds, whilst back court will want more head heavy aggressive rackets like the Yonex Astrox 88D Badminton Racket for example. Secondly, you need to consider what playing style you are - Attacking, Counter-Attacking, Defensive, Control or Speed. Each style will suit a different racket or range from Yonex. What Yonex have done beautifully is that they’ve created brand ranges for each style of play - for example - attacking style are the Yonex Astrox Rackets or the Yonex Voltric Range , the Speed series are the Yonex Nanoflare and Yonex Nanoray Rackets . If you’re a counter-attacking - look out for the Yonex Duora Rackets range. Finally if you’re a control player go for the Yonex Arcsaber Rackets .
