yes, lower ur tension if u feel that u need a lot of power to hit, else, go build ur muscle
but it also depends on ur racket whether it's stiff/flex This post has been edited by joonchingg: Jun 2 2014, 12:09 PM |

isn't more tension the better to put power into the shuttle rather than a soft springy string that absorbs energy

QUOTE(kho82 @ Jun 2 2014, 02:37 PM) QUOTE(ZeroSOFInfinity @ Jun 2 2014, 02:50 PM) Higher tension - more effort in smashes and drives, but better control. Beginner and intermediate players should start at 24lbs or lower. Are there any big difference if I reduce string tension from 25lbs to 24 lbs? Or should I go 23lbs? |

Dropshot is harder with high tension bcoz the shuttle doesnt bounce that easily compared to lower tension |

Because if you put high tension and play with a stiff racket, it takes much more effort to smash. But I do well with dropshots and drives when my tension is 26lbs. |

U cannot do so with high tension racket, u have to hit it. |

I find higher tension = better control hence better drop shot since you need force to smash...easier to disguise smash to as drop shot by slicing |
