And is it really so much money? Do you know the cost of a set of golf clubs? I have a friend who has 4 sets!

You may want to compare to swimming, all you need is a tiny swimming brief or even cheaper, try swimming naked...only one thing to worry if you swim in lake, watch out for piranha...LOL.

Maybe you have money to burn and not sure what to do with them, so best is to support the economy, store owner, racket maker, player financially...LOL

For collection purposes, but first have to gauge its following to decide if it's going to be a collectors item or just another one in the mix! Got to ask around though.

ummmmm.... good Poll here... well...for me.. i've been having countless sticks,something like around 10 or so.......from blacken to carbo, i can't remember the number- all YY... but all are 'missing'..

since i 're-started' badminton about 4 to 5 yrs ago, i took a Rm 350.00 Victor ( can't remember the model,given away...

...it's all yellow tho.. )..

then a Amortec900P,,and then Nano9900...i THOUGHT it'll sorta stop..

then...omg... i came here ...yes ...HERE...AND THEN IT JUST GROWS ...

guess this place has 'bad - influence' on me ???????????????????????

btw i voted for - Curious to try a racquet everyone was talking about.. needless to say ?? lol..

Because when you think you can improve a certain aspect of your game but realize your current racket won't do it for you then is the time to look around, either through hearsay, reviews, whatever, then decide to trade up or keep it if it's deemed to be a classic in the making

.

But then, baddy lovers sometimes just wanted something new to test for no big big reason at all

.

Definitely not after for the flashiest, sparkling new racket!

well... my take now is that . "i need a new stick" cos my friend broke my fave..

and the worst part, they don't have the same one, so, gotta get the diff version... shaft stiffness diff..

will try out this wkend, and if the feel is good, i have to get another as standby !!!
