    Any reviews for the above rackets for those who had tried it?
    Better still any comparison with SOTX D-600?
    Thanks...

    The 300A and D are very good rackets. However, I still prefer the D600.

    I personally r using TSF 300A,but as my secondary racket..as i always play double these days.I dont wanna broke my new racket just yet.But,for what i felt when i played with it,is that i got much more sure feeling for every hit i made,delivers more power,faster hits,great control.

    Hi Mr. DinkAlot,
    In what ways is your preference of D600 vs 300A? Hope you can share some pointers. I had always read your comments with great interests.:cool:

    Power: D600
    Control: D600
    Feel: D600
    Defense: 300A
    Fit and Finish: 300A

    The 300A is a good racket in all aspects. However, for me, the D600 is just better. The shuttle comes off the D600 with better feel, better confidence and more power.

    I agree with Dinks comparison. The D feels less stiff and even lighter. Don't know the stats.. but I assume D is head-lighter..

    Very good rackets.. But for me there are better ones around :)

    Can check which string and tension are you using on D600?

    I don't need to check what tension I use on my D600s, I know. :p

    The D600s were strung at about 29lbs.

    I tried swinging a d600 and felt it was a hefty stick. Are both the d600 and tsf300 demanding rackets ie would they be more suitable for competitive/advanced players?

    Yes, they are more demanding. The D600 is more suited for singles. I love the racket but find it too long for doubles. The 300A is suited for everything.

    TSF300A,TSF300D,TSF200 and D600

    Hi Forumer,
    If u compare D600 to TSF300A, D600 is slightly head-heavier. Both are good racket. If u are a crazy smasher,then probably D600 v have the edge. TSF300D is similar to NS9K Type S. good for defence. TSF300A is designed like NS9K Type X. Both TSF300A and TSF300D are good rackets. Their colour scheme is really beautiful. Not too heavy for users. TSF200 is just another ultra thin fibre racket which is slightly different from TSF300A or TSF300D. It is also a good racket,just the feel is different from the 300 series.TSF300 can costs u about RMB$870/- and TSF200 about RMB$780/- per pc. ;)
    But if u compare these rackets to SOTX Woven series,like Woven 7 or Woven 4A, I think Woven series are more solid n worth the money.:p They cost almost half the amounts.My 2cts.
    Lee:D

    seen the new w7i yet?

    if all goes well I might get a couple in in a month or so:D

    they're 87-90 grams, just as headheavy, but this time 8,0-8,5 stiff!:eek:

    they look sweet as well...

    eitherway, on-topic...I dont; find the d600 just a 'handfull' as all of you...it's very mobile given the power actually...

    how long are the TSF's anyway?

    Bah, they shouldn't mess with a proven good thing - lest we get another Ti-10 situation.

    well, it's stiffer...and still on the heavier side...

    but, as far as I know, the original will still be sold seperately.

    ps: pics [​IMG]

    if you, with ti-10 situation, mean a racket that stands out from the crowd...try a D600;)
    (yes, I'm joking, sit down ti-10 lovers :p )

    The Woven 7i maybe the ideal racket for me. I love the 7 but wish it was stiffer.

    Oh, I already ordered 4 of them. :D :p

    Heh, nah didn't mean that it stands out exactly. I just didn't know they were going to continue making the old Woven 7. I assumed some die-hard fans of the old W7 might be put off by any changes, and would be forced to pay a premium to acquire them if out of production.
