Yonex Badminton Rackets - Are They The Best?

Yonex Badminton rackets are used by more top players than any other manufacturer. Yonex are the dominant force in badminton today. Other top end Yonex rackets are the Armortec series and the Nano speed series.

Prices for these rackets range from around £80 to £110, which is a significant amount of money to invest in a badminton racket.

I have used many Yonex badminton rackets over the years, from the early CAB 8DX, CAB 20 and CAB 21. Yonex badminton rackets are probably the best you can get.

Carlton Badminton Rackets - A Cheaper Alternative?

If you are looking for an alternative to Yonex, then Carlton badminton rackets could well fit the bill. Carlton are badminton specialists, they only manufacture badminton products, unlike many of their competitors. This focus has enabled them to create high quality rackets, full of innovative technology.

A welcome addition to the Carlton range is the isometric head shape. Almost all the range have this alternative, and is comparable to the Yonex rackets.

Prince Badminton Rackets

Prince badminton rackets have been around for quite a while now, offering slightly quirky designs along the way. I have used the older Prince models with the x-axis design, and they were prone to string breakage due to the string bed design, which caused the strings to be spaced out more than conventional designs.

Prince still use this head shape in some of their lower priced rackets, but the more expensive rackets now use an isometric head shape, or as Prince call it, the quadraform head shape. Prince have created open ports at the 12, 3, and 9 o'clock positions on the racket head.

SOTX Badminton Rackets - A Rival For Yonex?

SOTX badminton rackets are a relatively new name in the badminton world, however, they have been growing at a fast rate in China. There are nine ranges in the SOTX line up, and the flagship rackets are the CP series, which stands for Commax Power, or circle power.

The CP series is designed to withstand higher stringing tensions, as high as 31lbs. This tension produces excessive vibration in normal badminton rackets, but with the force pro technology, this is no longer the case.

Things get even more expensive with the SOTX Woven range. The SOTX Diamond Fighter range is made from special memory alloy which reduces the ageing process of the racket. The main stumbling block for SOTX badminton rackets is gaining an honest reputation for quality and durability, and only time will tell if they are successful.
