YONEX Graphite Badminton Racquet ASTROX 3DG HF Blue White G4 4U

Yonex Astrox 3 DG HF Graphite Badminton Racquet (Blue/White) with Full Cover

Experience a harmonious blend of powerful offense and enhanced shuttle feel with the Yonex Astrox 3 DG HF Badminton Racquet in its vibrant Blue/White color scheme. Engineered as part of the acclaimed Astrox DG series, this racquet features a Deep Graphite (DG) frame that boasts exceptional durability and the ability to withstand very high string tensions, up to 35 lbs. This makes it an excellent choice for players who demand maximum repulsion and a crisp hitting sensation from their strings.

The "HF" designation indicates a High-Flex shaft, which provides greater bend and snap-back during your swing. This flexibility helps generate more power, particularly for players who might not have extremely fast arm speeds, making it easier to execute powerful clears and smashes. The racquet integrates Yonex's innovative Rotational Generator System, ensuring a balanced weight distribution for seamless transitions between shots and quick recovery for relentless attacking play.

With its Isometric head shape expanding the sweet spot, the Astrox 3 DG HF offers remarkable forgiveness on off-center hits, contributing to more consistent and effective shots. The slim shaft and AERO+BOX Frame design further enhance aerodynamics for faster swing speeds. Whether you're an intermediate player looking to step up your attacking game or an advanced player seeking a powerful racquet with a comfortable, flexible feel, the Yonex Astrox 3 DG HF is built to elevate your performance. It comes complete with a full cover for optimal protection and convenient transport.

Key Features & Technologies:

• Deep Graphite (DG) Frame: Constructed with advanced graphite materials, this frame is exceptionally robust and can withstand very high string tensions (up to 35 lbs). This allows players to customize their string bed for maximum repulsion and precision.

• Full HM Graphite Construction (Frame & Shaft): High Modulus Graphite throughout the racquet ensures a lightweight, durable, and responsive feel, contributing to excellent power and control.

• High-Flex (Hi-Flex) Shaft: Unlike stiffer shafts, the high-flex shaft provides more "whip" and bend, which helps generate more power, especially for players with developing or moderate swing speeds. This also provides a more comfortable hitting feel.

• Rotational Generator System: This hallmark Astrox technology distributes weight strategically throughout the racquet – at the grip end, frame top, and joint – enabling smooth, rapid transitions between offensive and defensive shots, and quicker preparation for the next strike.

• Isometric Head Shape: The unique square-shaped Isometric head maximizes the intersection of the main and cross strings, creating a significantly larger sweet spot. This enhances shot accuracy and power even on off-center hits.

• NANOMESH NEO: An adhesive material that combines graphite fiber with resin, providing a stronger and more flexible frame and an increased shaft flex. This translates to better shuttle hold and enhanced power.

• AERO+BOX Frame: This hybrid frame design offers the benefits of both aerodynamic (for speed) and box-shaped (for stability) frames, resulting in faster swing speeds without sacrificing a solid hitting feel.

• Slim Shaft: Engineered to cut through the air with minimal resistance, promoting faster racquet head speed for more potent and responsive shots.

• Built-in T-Joint: An integrated T-joint strengthens the connection between the frame and shaft, reducing twisting for enhanced stability and control during play.

• Control Support CAP: Provides a wider, flatter surface compared to ordinary racquet caps, improving grip comfort, follow-through speed, and overall maneuverability.

• Targeted Player Level: Ideal for intermediate to advanced players who desire an attacking racquet with a more flexible feel, or for those who want to maximize power through shaft flex.

• Weight & Grip: Typically 4U (Average 83g) with a G4 grip size, providing a manageable weight for quick reactions and a comfortable grip for most players.

• Color: Distinctive Blue/White aesthetics.

• Full Cover Included: Comes with a full racquet cover for protection against dust, scratches, and minor impacts, ensuring longevity.

The Yonex Astrox 3 DG HF is an excellent choice for players looking to harness aggressive power with a touch more forgiveness and feel, making their attacking game both effective and enjoyable.
