    Have you tried the Yonex Voltric 80?

    Some said it's Stiff+Head Heavy...but compared to Victor MX80 (stiffer)...the VT80 feels more like Medium Stiff+Head Heavy.

    I think Voltric 70 is medium stiff and head heavy.

    However, VT70's frame is slim. IMHO

    I would vote for Armortec 600, it is a medium head heavy racket, and it is quite light as well, since it is 4U.

    Same racket as the Armortec Tour which might be easier to find.

    Are you saying that AT600 and AT tour is exactly the same racket with different paints?
    Does AT tour only come in 4U or both 3U & 4U?

    YY: VT70, VT5, VT7, VT60, AT30MG, AT70MGG2
    Lining: N33, N55, N50, N30, NP201B, TP100B, UC2100B

    MX70 seems to have a wide body frame from the octablade shape.
    It is wide body frame with sharp aerodynamic mixed on the edge.

    RSL X5 silver is med-stiff and head heavy with taper shaft. I have heard that this racket seems to have a small sweet spot. so.. I am still seeking.

    Why not try the RKEP Pro 6000 or 9000? The 6000 is medium stiff and the 9000 is stiff and both come in head heavy variants of 295 bp mm.

    Solid, bang for buck, understated. Check out the RKEP thread on the Equipment forum.

    I am using AT tour and sure is different from AT600 .
    AT600 is sure more flexible than Tour .
    The AT Tour is the old AT300 which have box frame and more head heavy and stiffer.
    More power compare to AT600 as I used before .
    The AT Tour seems more heavier than my Arc7 and more powerful than some of my previous 3U racket except 8DX which generate most power from my play .

    Ultimately after using the racket that suits us is most important since we all build differently in Body frame and muscles strenght .

    You should try the Victor Tk-9000/6000, I think you'll like it a lot.
