Novice how to choose badminton racket

"How to choose" this question, we must first answer "how", and then recommend "select", so we must first talk about some of the price, parameters of the relevant content, want to see the brand and the specific model can be skipped.

1. About price

The so-called novice entry, in the end should buy high-end or low-end, to see their own feeling of badminton. If you really like badminton, if you really want to play badminton, you can start from the middle end (500-800 yuan). If you're not sure if you can stick with it, or if you didn’t determine your style of play at the time of entry, start with the low end (100-$500) and wait until you are sure that you really like playing, stick to it, or be clear about yourself. Ball Road, and then change for their own high-end shooting.

For the sake of everyone's wallet, the rackets recommended at the back are all low-end prices.

2. About the purchase channel

Physical store purchases are guaranteed, but no one can deny the convenience of online shopping. Before online shopping, it is recommended to try it in a physical store. When you buy online, you must pay attention to the fact that you should not go to shops with unsafe quality if you plan to buy cheaper products. If you are using the same racket, which store is low in price, you should be cautious. If you don't know how to choose, you can visit some badminton forums and see the recommended online shop. If the economy allows it, it is still recommended to buy in a physical store, and the difference will not be too great.

3. About each part of the racket parameters

Shooting type

There are two types of beats, oval beat and square beat, both of which have their advantages and disadvantages. The small area of ​​the round-head type is good for the speed and frequency of the swing, but at the same time the sweet spot is also smaller. The square beat area is large and the air resistance is relatively large, but the sweet area is also larger, making the hitting efficiency much higher than the round head beat type. Offensive players generally use ovals. The sweet sweet spot is concentrated near the head and is aggressive. Defensive players generally use square beats. The sweet area is large and close to the middle. The ball control effect is good and the defensive effect is good.

Materials

1 composite material, such as carbon glass fiber racket

2 metal materials, iron aluminum, aluminum alloy, all-iron, etc.

3 carbon fiber, such as a full-carbon racket

Now everyone chooses rackets to like carbon fiber materials. The benefits of carbon fiber are light weight, good toughness, and high strength. It is currently the main racket material.

Racket length

The IBF's standard length is 665mm, now it is generally 670mm and 675mm, and the Chinese market is mostly 675mm.

The longer the racket, the greater the controllable range and the more active the ball

The shorter the racket, the smaller the controllable range, the more flexible it is on the court

Racket weight

Use common Yonex standards

U=95~100g

2U=90~94g

3U=85~89g

4U=80~84g

There are two common misunderstandings in the racket's weight. One is that the lighter the racket is, the better, and the second is that the player with less power should choose a lighter racket. In fact, for a player with insufficient power, a slightly heavier racket can be used to hit the ball with the weight of the racket. If you like a lighter racket, you can choose a longer balance point, frame weight, and also help the ball.

Single players can consider choosing a heavy tempo if strength allows, and hitting the ball with strength; doubles players can consider a lighter tempo, have a fast swing speed, and have a fast front screen closure speed.

General professional players will choose to shoot 3U or 4U. Below this, the maximum number of pounds will not be able to pull. Professional players range from 25 pounds to 35 pounds, advanced players choose 22 pounds to 26 pounds, beginners choose 20 to 25 pounds, and if 5 U, they pull down to 18 to 22 pounds.

Racket balance point

The balance point is the distance from the back of the racket to the center of gravity of the racket. Generally speaking:

The bigger the balance point, the heavier the racket head, the faster the swing speed, and the more suitable for the attack.

The smaller the balance point, the lighter the racket head, the slower the swing speed, and the easier to control

hardness

In general, a hardness of about 8.0 is an offensive racquet, a hardness of about 8.5 is both offensive and defensive, and a congestion of about 9.0 is defensive. Badminton racket hardness is expressed as follows:

You can go to the physical store to give a wave. If you feel a shock, it means the racket is too hard.
