    There isn't a single racquet that will like Yonex's in half-price. No brands can produce the solid feelings of top end Yonex racquets. Just go get a Yonex high end and you will know what I mean.

    The Browning are good rackets in their own right.

    I've tried the Browning Platinum Nano 75 & Browning Plasma Platinum 75 & Old Browning Stealth CTI & Old Browning Stealth TI and Old Browning Big Gun.

    The Browning Platinum Nano 75 is one of my favourite rackets. Its stiff flex, head heavy and reminds me of the old AT700. But the weight of 75g seems a little unrealistic!!! Seems like a 4U after restringing. Feels heavier due to the combination of head heaviness and stiffiness. Its more of an offensive racket.

    Its very good value for the price you pay.

    I don't like them there design IMHO is not very nice and I just didn't like the lack of control I got
    Maybe a restrung might help by I don't know

    Well, some APACS are pretty good, and they're around half the yonex price. Like the Tantrum 200.

    Zelm from sgbad also seems really good, at about half the price as well.

    Dink's rackets are about half price too, and those are very very solid rackets.

    Though I'm a beginning-intermediate player, this is what I gather from reading these forums everyday.

    Granted, they may not play exactly like Yonex rackets, they're definately on the same level. Unless I missed something. Always a possibility.
