    It is interesting to discuss what to bring along when playing badminton. It seems that it's quite common for people bringing different models/types of rackets for playing single and double. Just wanna know how you "feel" about this when using different racket for playing different kind of game. Is the difference really so significant?

    the difference is quite siginificant if u have a very head heavy racquet ie)2U Ti10 for doubles....i would use something else for singles, something that isnt as "slow".
    something that doesnt require as much strength to use because singles is much faster and physically demanding.
    But i use my cab23 for both singles and doubles, although it is head heavy, it is light overall(on the ligther end of the 2U scale) and regular length.
    this gives great reaction time and good power as well.

    depends, but i usually use the same racquet all day. I think my lighter racquet's gonna become a white elephant.
