    Hi, i am super into badminton nowadays . And i play badminton constantly with my friends everyday . I play doubles . I am more of a control type player but i am more into attacking style of playing & are trying to upgrade my smash power . What racket suits me most? My budget is between Rm300-400 . I prefer Yonex or any Korea racket.

    If you are looking for Yonex high end racket, the cost shall come across RM450 and above...
    Korea racket I don't know any brand, but Victor (Taiwan) shall have a quite good racket...
    If come to RM300~400, Victor Super Waves 33, 35, 36 meet the budget and quite good also...

    RSL also have quite good racket in their range of Diamond and Heat series... Finnex (M'sia) also have quite a good range racket, if you interested, you can PM me for details...

    Thank you, and furthermore, the yonex ns300 is an ideal cheap, mid range racket. Easy to use and offers decent power and gd control. For it's price, a bargain

    Good for both control and power play if
    Your not having a gd day. On a gd day, i'd rather use something with
    More power(stiffer and more head heavy)

    If you're lucky, RM450 might get you a very good used Yonex high-end rackets like AT 900T, Ti10, etc. These rackets are good for doubles. If you don't mind trying Malaysia's own brand, give APACS Tantrum 200 a try. It's their best racket for doubles and some Malaysian national players are sponsored by APACS. APACS Tantrum 200 is one of the few rackets that has been given an "Excellent +" by DinkAlot.
