hmm....150CAD should be more that enough for any cheap racket out there.
Think maybe a carbonex 8(which i used as my first)
check out http://www.badmintoncentral.com/revi...wcat.php?cat=3 for some racket review before decideing.

If you are looking for a cheap but good racket, you shouldnt even think about yonex. I would recommend Carlton, Babolat or Forza, or any else brand than yonex. The most expensive racket of Carlton maybe costs something like 150 $, but if you buy from ebay it will cost about 50-80$. But with 150$ you could get only cheapest rackets of yonex. And, yonex rackets arent so marvelous.
