    if you don't have a whole lot of power you might want a racket with a bit more weight, maybe even balance with a flexible shaft. arc002 would be a good choice. also, no power means different things for different people. if you can actually describe what you're trying to accomplish with this new racket that you can't do without, maybe we can give you better suggestions.

    Hi Gundam, just want to learn sumthing from u. Just bit wonder y a heavier racket would help to improve power swing? I have a apacs lethal 9 strung at 24lbs, med shaft n bit head heavy, i rarely used it cos after few strikes my arm feel like very tired, the bad thing is the shuttle need lot of force to hit and it doesnt fly too far oso. I have no problem with another racket yonex brave swd 24lbs playing for few games, both 4u v Yonex BG66. Just don get it y it makes so much difference.Mind to share?

    Thanks for the guidances.

    a heavier racket would give you more momentum when you hit the birdie. it will feel a bit heavier when you swing, but the disadvantage should be minimal after you get used to the racket. if you feel like it's heavy and your arm gets tired after a while, then you'll just need to train your arm in strength. if you're trying hard to hit the shuttle and it is still not flying far enough for you, it could be your form or your string. those two things comes to my mind first. victor bravesword is a "semi" head heavy racket in the sense that most of the weight is not located at the extreme head frame of the racket but it is somewhat even balance. so maybe what you want is a heavier but even balance racket so when you swing, the swing weight isn't so heavy that your arm is tired out, but heavy enough so that you can get some power out of it :)
