    I am looking for a head light racquet to replace my 3UG5 Ti-10 (3rd Gen). I play mostly MD and the occasional XD. As I have always just been using Yonexes, I am looking at the 3UG5 NF800, NR800 and NR900. Although I am a better rear court player than I am at the front, I value a speedy, manoeuvrable racquet for fast-paced doubles play.

    Looking at recent Yonex selection charts, all three racquets seem to be around the same region on the chart.

    Has anyone got a good idea on the main difference(s) between these three models and which you would recommend? I would like to get a good idea before committing to get four of the same racquet.

    All input will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

    Nanoflare 800 has a compact-frame head just for you to know. Also its the thinnest frame out of the rackets you are comparing.

    Hi there - when you said compact head frame, does that mean the head of the NF800 is smaller than the Nanorays?

    yes it is much smaller (mainly shorter) thus sweetspot is smaller but more concentrated (stronger)
