Hello ! Can you help me in my choice ? I search a middle price Yonex racquet, head light, medium stiff, for all around / deffensive and advance player (me ^^). And I can't decide between the Yonex NanoSpeed 500 and the Yonex NanoSpeed 5000 What do you think ? And do you have another suggestion for me ? Thanks !
according to this http://www.badmintonalley.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=RACKET-YONEX-NS500 it's slightly head heavy, and http://www.badmintonalley.com/Yonex_Nano_Speed_5000_Badminton_Racquet_p/racket-yonex-ns5000.htm it's for advanced player compared to the 500 for intermediate... i would personally recommend trying the apacs rackets, cheaper and at similar prices, definitely better then the 2 you've mentioned
I have the 5000 and my dad has the 500. i've used both and the 5000 is definitely better. lighter, better feel in smashing and control and less tiring to use. I've been really impressed by my new Victor ATB which is lighter, has even balance, can be strung to higher tensions and is cheaper than the 5000.
