    There's no such thing as a best racquet. It all depends on personal preference. Some say AT700 is the best because many of the top MS players use it, some say AT900P because it's one of the most expensive ones and it's powerful, some say Ti-Zero because it's very head-light.. etc.......

    You have to try out/demo racquets to find out what's the best racquet for you. If you dont feel comfortable playing with it, then it's not for you..

    Yop.. somebody asks a similar question nearly every week or so.. racquets, strings, etc.. and the answer is always the same: There's no such thing as a best <whatever equipment>.

    Airblade,
    Well since you're doing a project, and given you're in the UK where it can be difficult to get information on other brands, I'd suggest you get in touch with Yonex about either of these, since they're the current yonex top of the range ones:

    ArcSaber 10
    Armortec 900 P or T
    Nanospeed 9000 (only X is available in the UK if you don't already know)

    Contact details is available at www.yonex.co.uk

    Dink - that racket is only suitable for someone equipped with Panda/Gorilla arms to properly play badminton with :p:p!
