    I know, right? It is hard to believe but that is the fact or may be something wrong with my scale? :D

    Try using the middle of the scale. It's very very likely you'll end up with different results.

    Im actually like vs tour that is feel light n not much head heavy with my overgrip + ori grip..i think that jpx 8.5 will suit me but it feel quit heavy and make my defend not comfortable compare to vs tour..for balance point i look that tx12 is close to vstour..that 295 and 296..but what make me worried that tx12 is 3u..like jpx 8.5 weight is 86 gram and tx12 is 85 gram..and make me think that feeling of racquect heavy is same..

    And about px1 what me think is about the frame design..i consider a box frame like vs tour..and shaft for px1 is more flex than tx12 and tx12 is more flex than vs tour..urrgghh really sound complicated but ill must think the best to choose because of money..lol..

    Then you can buy more VS Tour bro :D
    TX12 is box frame. TX12 and PX1 both med stiff (written on shaft) and VS tour actually feel med stiff too (not written on shaft).

    Sorry for the hiatus, was away for a short break.

    2 weeks back at spottiswoode park hall....
    Skiya Badminton Carnival 2017 where there was close to 450 participants over 2 days.

    Events included open double categories and team categories.
    We would like to congratulate all the winners and we hope to do more of tournaments like these.

    Thank you all for the participation and we hope you have had a fun day if anyone of you were there playing.

    For me, solid equal with stiffness level. So JPX LTD and 8.5 is the most solid/stiffest among other Mizuno rackets like TX12, VS Tour and PX1

    TX12 is having the same weight like VS Tour with my grip setup. 8.5 and LTD are 2gr heavier than TX12 or VS Tour.

    Finally obtained my first ever Mizuno racket, Caliber Reg (Silver/Black). Hand picked a heavier one amongst the only 10 pcs available in Australia.

    After strung and goy rid of original grip, laid one layer of overgrip over the wooden handle, and 2 wraps of cushioning foam. The weight is 91g, close to my 3u rackets which done in the similar way.

    The first impression of this racket is Ti 10 (2nd gen) with extra stability and slightly higher balance point!! The shaft and handle length are the same, whereas Ti 10 has a transitional box > oval > box frame and Caliber Reg comes with transitional thick box > slim box > thick box frame.
    Looking forward to use it more in coming weekend.

    Nop, it's a 4u6 version, the silver/black one used by okuhara.
    But I have picked one which is heavier

    I will give it a proper try this coming weekend.
    The shaft is mid-flex maybe due to the long shaft/short handle design
