    Guys,

    I play with both Nylon shuttle and Feather shuttles. Once a week I play with Feather shuttles for 2-3 hours and twice a week I play with Nylon shuttle. I only play doubles.....

    My preferred racket for feather shuttle has been Brave sword 9N (Medium flex with even (to little HH) balance)
    and for nylon shuttle has been nanoray Glanz (Flex racket which goes further with little effort)

    Eventually, I will be playing with feather shuttles only.

    My current problem is that I don't have a good power (and technique) and I want to experiment with a little head heavy racket to add more power to my game.

    I am afraid of playing with Stiff rackets as I had tennis elbow pain in past and don't want to go through again. So I am looking for medium flex racket with little head heavy feeling to play doubles only.....

    Any suggestion between victor TK 8000 or jetspeed yys or jetspeed 12 or zf-1? (Only 4u rackets)

    Thank you Guys

    -Raj

    Yonex Voltric GlanZ?

    - head heavy
    - medium flex
    - easy to play
    - 4u

    Improve your technique would be good too. :)

    is the stiffness similar to nano ray glanz?

    because nanoray glanz is too flexible for me.. ...have you tried any jetspeed or thruster rackets?

    Jetspeed12 is really good, too. Between medium and stiff
    Nanoray GlanZ is flexible
    Voltric GlanZ is medium

    Tk8000 user here and I play doubles, you need a lot of practise with tk8000. Still it's slower. Zf2 4u is perfect.

    You're recommending a ZF2 to someone who admits they don't have great technique and wants a medium flex due to having tennis elbow in the past?

    Isn't a ZF2 totally opposite for his needs?
