    Hey guys,

    I got another MP99 (I love them) and it has a little Yonex sticker on it that is a hologram. I have never seen this before. Is this a new step to combat fakes? Laser engraving hasn't worked so perhaps this won't for long either.

    05 coded racquet.

    The newer Yonex rackets have those stickers.
    It's just something new, and I don't think it's for the fakes-fighting purposes as stickers are really easy to make.

    Errr....currently 3 :) I have broken several in a few different ways :(

    Not a cheap habit!

    Unfortunately I don't see much by the way of Carlton or Woven or whatnot.
