I think it belongs to LCW, I was talking to his cousin and LCW's racket has that on it

Any difference between ltd and green zf? head-heaviness n shaft stiffness

No. The biggest difference though is that the LTD doesn't come in anything else than 4UG5. At least in Japan. The standard edition comes in 3U-4U/G4-G5.

If you look at the dedicated thread you will read that some swear the shaft feels stiffer on the ltd. In Europe we have both 3U /G3 and 4U /G 4 available.

Ordered a couple of these, entirely out of curiosity and for fun. Currently 3U VT80 is my go to racket - I doubt Z-Force will be better than it, but I'm looking forward to trying Z-Force just in case.

Anyone care to comment more on VT80 verses Z-Force? Perhaps I should start a new thread on this?

Personally I find imget more control with the z force. That's the biggest difference to me because the power is about the same for me. Keeping in mind that my z force is 4ug5 and my voltric 80 is 3ug4 so it's hard to really compare. There's a few threads on this topic out there somewhere though. http://www.badmintoncentral.com/foru...oltric-Z-Force. There's the most recent one, I googled it and there are a ton of threads on it to browse through

Zforce is faster than VT80 without losing power too much. I am comparing 3U/G5 VT80 and VTZF. 4U VTZF will be faster than 3U VTZF and 3UVT80, but the power is not matched with the other two.

Decided to take the plunge and bought one after a quick 1 day session with my friend's vtzf.

Mine is vtzf ltd 4U/G4 with BG66UM @ 26lbs. Boy, like someone said, she's something that comes out from a hardhitter/smasher's wet dream. Clears and smash were nice. Check smashes were nice, dropshots were fun to do thanks to the head heaviness. Really gives you that solid confidence feeling for those intricate shots.

But the very stiff shaft really gives out that metallic feeling somehow, a feeling that I know my elbow wouldn't like so much. Time to hit back the gym!
