I've been reading the forums threads here and trying to find a racquet for myself. I'll appreciate any input. Here're some stats: Skill level: Intermediate Height & Weight: 168 cm, 80kg (5' 6", 178 lb) Play Frequency: 2 hours/week Games played: Mostly doubles, Indoor Shuttlecock used: Plastic My playing style: I love playing drops and sending shuttlecock to the corners, smashes come secondary. Price Range: ~$100 (will pay more for a very good reason) I'm looking for specific model recommendations. Thank you! Gravity
The Voltric 7 is mid-flex and slightly head-heavy, according to at least one review by a notable forum member. http://badminton-coach.co.uk/1977/yonex-voltric-7-badminton-racquet-review/ He compares it to a Nanospeed 9900 (stiff and slightly head heavy) and to the Armortec 600 (midstiff and and a little head heavy). I haven't played with the Voltric 7 but those other two rackets are very nice. Yonex's own site refers to the Voltric 7 as a good all-rounder racket. That can't be a bad thing. So if this model is in your price range, why not go for it! (and if possible get a good string job).
