    I recently broke a AT 800 Def (1 month old) at 12'o clock.
    Did not even realize when I broke it. Just happened to notice it when I was changing the grip at home.

    I mostly play singles, so no clashes, must be just a couple of mis hits.

    Just wondering, where do rackets typically break if they are manufacture defects, and where if they are clashes.

    I probably should have taken pictures to be mor clear.

    I have no other scratches on the racket other than the big chip the location where it broke (12'o clock)
    Do you guys think Yonex will replace this or reject it ?

    Man, that search was scary, never saw some many broken rackets in my life. :eek:

    On another note, High Noon Disease is a good, funny and appropriate name. :p :D

    I got my rackets strung the same place for 2 years now....and I get them restrung every 3 weeks...... I dont think it is from the stringing job.
    Sent it for replacement, and hopefully they will replace it. the rest of the racket is so clean they should know I take care of my rackets :)
