    The "original" racket head is oval, the classical Carbonex type. From there comes the variations, such as Isometric, Aerotus type and muscle power frame. Sprinkle those with combination of material, such as Ti, high modulus carbon and trick such as long body and heavy head etc, we get a lot of combinations for Yonex rackets.

    My question is evolution of racket head do you think makes the most difference in your game and why?

    I would say that the head makes a lot of differences especially for smashing and control.

    it's a matter of feel

    widebody frames tend to be more head heavy,

    isometric gives u a larger sweetspot, benefiting the less consistent.

    hollow frames make the head lighter for more control but less durability.

    widebody/aerotus/airblade provide a more aerodynamic shape therefore more movement speed POTENTIAL

    oval/conventional frames provided being dense enough are more durabal and can endure higher stringing tensions.
