Many people believe that higher tension will get more strike power. In fact, this is absolutely wrong. For badminton beginners, I suggest the tension around 18-22 Lbs because high tension will hurt your wrist if your wrist is not powerful enough to play with high tension string racket.
For amateur players, I would suggest tensions between 23 Lbs to 25 Lbs. At this tension range, you will have better control and will also feel that you can hit the shuttercock to the backcourt easier and have better drop shot.
For good players who have stronger wrist power, you are suggested to try tension of 26 Lbs and higher. At high tension, your racket string is very stiff,and this is very good for ball control therefore good for net game. Besides, stronger string tension can help you to achieve stronger smash, provided you have strong wrist power. This is why many professional playwers used to string at very high tension, usually more than 30 Lbs.
More activities will be created in near future. Stay tune!
