Head Heavy rackets are also called power racquets. More weight is distributed at the top of the racket head, giving you more momentum in your swing. This produces more powerful shots. Badminton Clears are mostly effortless; Smashes are often DEADLY.

Head Heavy badminton rackets are suitable if you are an aggressive player, playing mostly from the rear court.

Power rackets give you more power in your badminton shots, but they slow down your recovery time. You are likely to sacrifice speed for power if you choose a head heavy racket.

You should go for Head Heavy rackets only if you:

• Are a big fan of smashing,
• Play singles in badminton,
• Attack very often from the rear court in doubles

If you are a beginner, you might want to reconsider a Head Heavy badminton racquet as it might be quite physically demanding. If Head Heavy is not for you, see our range of
