    Great Hello Kitty AZBadman!

    All you have to do is stencil your wife's racquet and you can get a new top-of-the-line racquet yourself!!?!??!?!

    Man, I should have married a badminton player :) My wife thinks that I have too many racquets already (really, can anyone have too many racquets?)

    ice dragon , normally when you go to badminton stores , you can ask them for a stencil because they got one free with every yonex racket.

    I also believe you can email yonex themselves and they will send one for free :D.

    I use pound shop perminant markers on my Ashaway powergut 66 neon (0.66mm) and it doesnt affect the durability at all.

    i guess different types with different chemicals will affect the strings differently

    In theory, yes.

    However, if you are a frequent string breaker (say, less than 1 month), then the string will break way before any chemical really kicks in. If ur string lasts for a long time (i.e. does not play often, lower tension, backup rackets only, etc) then stencil is the way to go, due to the reason stated above. ;)

    The stencil ink will slowly come off onto the shuttlecock cork and wear down. Reapply when it becomes faint.

    Maybe you just hit the centre of the stringbed more.

    I think his ink is the "Uber Ink" which is far superior and doesn't come off with a direct hit.:D

    Your hits are generating too much heat and melting the ink:crying:
