Badminton Racket YONEX VT60 Reviews

Don’t ask, ask is diarrhea, diarrhea after tomorrow as usual update.

Green Factory’s high-end models, all the 6 beginning, basically meet the characteristics of lightweight, soft and flexible.

Of course, this characteristic is more likely to be popular among female players with a certain foundation, so generally speaking, these 6 racquets have a more feminine appearance in the same series, which typically includes ASTROX 66, Double Edge 6, and Blast 600 JP.

There was also a 60 in the VT series in an earlier model, which is being added to the archives today.


Parameters: 4UG4, de-bottomed, 88.33g total weight in used condition, 296mm balance point, 215mm center bar length, medium-soft stiffness, boxed frame, 76-hole string bed, 9-3 point string slot, 24lbs warranty, 24lbs stringing XB63.

Of the number-named Masamune, the VT series is white primed except for some of the commemorative editions and E-TUNE, while the 60 is trimmed with a cooler blue-black decal. The racket continues the design language of the series, the series characteristics of the application of technology such as the Power Triangle system is also marked. 60 of the lacquer water this short hair cold sense of the girl’s youthfulness, in the whole VT high-end counts only. But the lacquer of this series and even all the green factory high-end products at the time the strength of the lacquer seems to be very bad, I recovered the second-hand on the abnormal large areas of lacquer, sticker peeling situation, quite knocked down.


Technology-wise, I saw a familiar face in the database: super polyethylene material. Isn’t that the same stuff that’s in the Bow 11pro’s mid-shaft? The Tomb Raiders of racquet tech have never been a non-starter. Other places are not much bright, but I have more want to complain, 4UG4 specification is really quite ribbed, after all, generally speaking in the group with this weight, or a little smaller hands of the ball player more, but this G4 is really on the thick side, even if the bottom of the bottom of the not much better, I prefer slim handle in the grip of the racket in the palm of the palm of the feeling of leaving enough space.

The racket is a box frame, swingweight is not too high, as a balance of the racket to use no problem. VT60 tuning is really soft, than the VTIF/VTGZ, a lot of racquets are considered to be used for old age in the hardness of a level lower than many of the same series of the entry-level models than soft. This Nissan top-end racket is extremely easy to play with, with a very easy to hit center shot deformation, and the stability of the box frame and the high forgiveness of the 76-hole stringbed can be seen in the warm-up phase, which is really a zero barrier to entry. I have recently stopped re-stringing used racquets with strings, and naturally, the XB63 I put on in December has softened up a lot due to poundage loss, but I found that it matches the current state of the racquet with patience.


But it was really too soft, and the solidity of the back court attack was very mediocre, both in terms of speed and strength were on the weak side, but I don’t know why my doubles opponents couldn’t always defend my kill line that day. Analytically speaking, I did consciously kill more chases and underarms that day, and I didn’t go out of bounds even on my overhead zone kills. This at least shows that the VT60’s torsion resistance is better than I thought, the directionality is good, secondly, it is easy to power up, and when I encountered a not-so-good power situation, I could also hit the downward pressure directly through the power of the small arm which is still OK, then it is lighter and quicker and easier to grab a high point, and lastly, it is more forgiving. In this way, the racquet is actually quite suitable for hitting big four-way shots to control the ball, and then catching the opportunity to hit a consistent blitz.

The VT60 is also characterized by its ability to feel the fish, and racquets that can feel the fish tend to have special strengths in ball control and passive release. Take net control as an example, the lightness of the racket is of course convenient for it to do the sealing action, wipe pounce implementation of a hit one by one, but when the grab point is not high, a slap back, soft blocking tends to become better because of its own sense of holding the ball, the return is more likely to be close to the net. Including in the backcourt, the quality of the slice with a wrap-around cut is very easy to do high, as long as the state of the wire does not pull the crotch, to get a high point and then send the ball out of the swinging momentum can make a flawless close to the tennis ball.


A soft and flexible racket is also good for passive shots, so I won’t go into details. In addition, the racket will benefit from its low swing weight in the pump gear, and it feels more responsive, but the response speed of the racket face is actually not so fast, and it’s not easy to find the feeling of fast-paced consistency, just a lighter body. In the defense, to receive the opponent to kill the ball feel is also very suitable, but in many rounds of suppression of the defense is not difficult to find its borrowed pop-up feeling is not so clear, more or rely on the other side of the kill tired of soft gear a beat to achieve the defense to attack, borrowed pop-up split the side of the effect of the general, the mobilization of opponents is more negative.

But even so, its good temperament still let me try the VT60 during the winning rate is guaranteed, kinda surprised me.
