    1. BS 12 (blue) 3UG5 - Ultimax 66 @ 25lbs (primary racket)
    2. BS 12 (blue) 3UG5 - Ultimax 66 @ 27lbs (if more control is needed)
    3. BS 12 (blue) 4UG5 - Ultimax 66 @ 25lbs (if playing front of net or defence)

    I have also the Dunlop Nanoblade JJS A1 (88gms with Ultimax 66 @ 25lbs) which yet to be tested. Once done, I will see where to put in my list.

    Boring, I know, but it's got to the stage now where I can't change rackets.

    But I am looking at getting a BS12 KRP which may change the order a bit.

    It's not, interestingly. I was nicely surprised by it. :) The swing weight of FB isn't exactly light despite its weight and light head.

    Another reason for choosing FB is due to limitations of my ability... the FB provides the best offense and defense for my games. FB could be replaced when my skills upgrade. :D

    Main: Yonex Voltric Z-Force II 4UG5

    I use ZF2 for both singles and doubles, but occasionally switch to the Bonny if I am being out hit by a more powerful player/team and need to defend/counter-attack more.

    Lol. It's an obscure Bonny racquet that I got for free in Malaysia.. Specs on the racquet says 87 +/- 1g, 295mm balance. The shaft feels medium-stiff, and it has a thin isometric head.
