      Shin (Experience:6-10 years) My experience with the YONEX MUSCLE POWER MP2

      You can clearly feel the weight and the shaft is stiff, so it's a racket for powerful hard hitters. However, it's probably not suited to beginners. Without a certain level of skill, control is difficult and you'd likely struggle to handle it. After using it, other rackets feel light, so it's ideal for practice.

      matsuichoka (Experience:4-5 years) If you need an essential practice racket, this is it

      It's on the heavy side and the shaft is stiff too, but for someone like me who just wants to hit hard, this racket was a perfect fit. Above all, this racket is ideal for practice. That's because after using it, other competition rackets feel really easy to handle. On top of that, my performance keeps improving, so for me it's one of the things I can't do without.

    • Badminton once a week

      Badminton once a week (Experience:Less than a year) For beginners

      I'm a beginner who's been playing for less than a year. I play badminton once a week, and the main reason I decided to buy this racket was that YONEX is the well-known name in badminton. It feels a little heavier than expensive rackets, but it was cheap, so I bought it. In use, it's very easy to swing.

      Emi (Experience:Less than a year) More than enough for beginners

      I'm not good enough to enter competitions, so I only use it for practice, but it's light and easy to take along when playing for fun, so I'm quite satisfied. For people who are serious about the sport, a lighter one might be better. It's easy to hold and solidly made.
