    Is it lower tension gives more power to smash and clears?
    Higher tension gives more control like nets?
    Cause i am not sure to string bg 66 in what tension?
    Will it be good if i string it between 23-26?
    I am an intermediate player

    why do you keep on making more threads for the same questions?

    tension is a personal matter. you must go out and test it yourself. you have stated a general thinking, with lower= more power, but that is not necessarily what is true. you hvae to try it out yourself. start with 24, and go up or down from there.

    Dude, I assume you are Chinese, but you have to start not being ignorant. jymbalaya already said that there is no best tension for a racquet, only best tension for you.

    PLEASE! Read the posts before asking anymore unintelligent questions.

    um, it's just personal preference. your skill level. your playing style.

    but really, if you really want someone to tell you, why not string it to 35 lbs like the pros.

    I'm not saying you are guilty of asking questions, and I think asking questions is good. It's not related to your "skills" of asking question either. The problem is that there is already very clear explaination for you that tension is personal preference, but you kept on asking what's the best tension for a racquet. Well, you don't even have to ask that because the specification on your racquet clearly states 3U|19-25lbs. So why did you ask in the first place?

    The best tension for your at900p is 22 pounds. How did I get this?

    (19+25)/2 = 22.

    Look "dude", I'm not trying to piss you off or disrespect you. I'm just trying to help you out here.

    I'm fine if you don't appreciate my assistance to your problem, and it's fine if you are rude to me, I don't mind.

    Know how to hit properly. Have footwork. Have form. Show that you care about badminton. Show that you're dedicated. Show that you have a lot of energy.

    Follow my advice, and make sure your at900p is strung at 22pounds, no more, no less.

    i'm with gemcat on this.

    matthew = typical rude and ignorant newb, no need to tell people to shut up.

    it's ok to be a newb, but do your own research before talking, there are thousands of valuable posts regarding the OPTIMAL tension.
