Nariyuki Badminton Papa (Experience:2-3 years) A racket with amazing value for money
-
2022/01/10
I've bought almost all of GOSEN's rackets.
I think this 7.5SR is a racket that suits just about anyone, from elementary school kids to seniors, as long as you adjust the string tension to your liking.
It's labeled 5U, but that's the 5U weight without the stock grip, so once you put the stock grip on, it weighs about the same as a 4U racket.
The shaft is stiffer than the original INFERNO and about the same as the INFERNO PLUS, and the racket's balance feels crisp. The catalog says head-heavy, but since it's a 5U it was easy to swing and felt like even balance or slightly head-light.
You can buy two for the price of one flagship model, so I think it's a racket that hobby players who play once or twice a week, beginners, seniors, and women can all use.
Even though it's a beginner-to-intermediate racket, I've been beating advanced players with it, so it has the potential to go as far as the user's skill can take it.
I gave it 9 points overall only because, personally, it would've been perfect if it were tuned a bit more head-heavy or the shaft were just a tiny bit stiffer. The racket itself is the best value for money, I think.Overall Swing Maneuverability Control Touch
