    due to the "nothing else better to do" syndrome that i contracted recently because of my school holidays, i am doing a comparison of all my rackets!

    yonex mp100
    this is by far my favourite racket! why? because the power, control, etc is superb! well, at least from among my rackets! i am thinking of getting a ti10 because mongoose lent me his and i love the head heaviness and the precision i can get from it! then again, you always get the feeling that other people's racket is always better than yours...

    yonex mp77
    i seldom use this because i find i cant control the shuttle very well with it. Power wise i find nothing special about it, but the feel of the racket is very very nice! and when you jump smash hard hard with it oceans roar and mountains crumble! :D okok i am exagerrating! but i think this is the reason why many people think that mp77 is more powerful than mp100... well, i dun agree!

    Proace platinum 310
    i do not know how to explain but i find i can do very nice dropshots with this... i got his racket cheaply and i do recommend people to buy this racket! it's very very nice! cheap and good! very stable and has a good control and decent power...why this is not my favourite racket? simple, it's not stiff enough! the 2 MPs i have are much stiffer than this... that's why i am kinda frustrated when i smash and it's not steep (btw, my skills aint that good either so maybe it's just me... :( )

    Yonex TI5
    This is a racket i bought very very cheaply coz a friend of mine doesnt want it anymore. and this racket has a huge sweetspot! HUGE! and the power it generates is good! but i dun like this racket because it's only medium stiff! even worse than my proace! although i can still control the shuttle quite well with this, but i find that my shots are not errr... crisp... i am not very sure how to describe it but if you are used to the top yy models(extra stiff) and you are suddenly given a low end(medium stiff/flexible) one, you'll get what i mean...

    DISCLAIMER!
    1. I will not be held liable if anyone gets eye strain from reading the wordy post!
