Hi,
I'm into many sports. I played ping pong(table tennis) for years, regular tennis for a while and I'm

interested in badminton now.
I played only twice total of 4~5 hours. It was fun. So I need a racquet. I found some previous posts

regarding the same topic.
Weight? 3u or 4u?
I played with 3 different racquets the past times. 2 of them were worth around $60~$70 I believe. I

checked a $200 one. I couldn't see/feel any difference between $60 ones. I think they had the

same weight. Of course I know almost nothing over all about badminton.
I played with a $15 racquet. I had a weird feeling. I think it was lighter than the other ones. But I

don't know if $15 ones have any specific weight like 3u, 4u.
I would like you to have some racquet recommendations for me(rookie). I'm thinking sth less then

$50.
What would u suggest?
Armortec,MusclePower,Isometric... or something else? I think I need to hold it to see how it feels

like.
I appriciate your help.
Thank you

Well, it's not really the racket that makes you a good player. I think that instead of investing money

into a racket, you can invest that money in to getting a coach.
But if you want to get a yonex for cheap, try a Yonex Isometric 23. It's cheap but I heard that its

good. As for me, I have a wilson racket. lol it does kinda suck

Woah...you were just like me when I first started haha. I'll try and elaborate as much as I can about

each type of yonex racket. If you just started playing, I reccomend you try out Kason or Victor,

since they are usually the cheapest (average) rackets in US.
But if you really want Yonex (I <3 YONEX!) You have two options, and this depends on your

financial limitations and ambition in badminton. You can either start out with an ok racket (I don't

feel much of a difference when it comes to distinguishing Isometrics) or you can buy one good

racket and use it to get better with and hope it doesn't break. I'm not a rich person, but the way I

learned to play badminton, was by using a $10 (BAD) Wilson racter and get schooled by asking

really good people to play with me, and eventually I got more into it and better at it and decided to

buy a better racket.
