Racquet Overgrip
Badminton rackets can be expensive so it would be wise to know the basics before you buy. If you are a novice player you do not need to spend a lot on a racket. A less expensive badminton racket will do just fine. Aim to spend about £30 maximum. There are many good rackets around at this price.
There are some basic fundamentals to look for in any badminton racket, the most important are the weight, the balance, the head shape, the flexibility and the grip size.
Most racquets weigh between 80-100 grams. More weight should give you extra power, but less maneuverability. A heavy racquet will be more difficult to swing through the air, but it will be more stable than a lighter racket. A lighter racket will offer more swing speed and maneuverability, at the cost of power and stability. The lightest badminton racket i have come across is the Karakal SL-70 and it weighs just 70 grams. This is the weight before you add the strings and your overgrip, so you need to be aware of this.
Yonex are the most popular badminton racket manufacturer and have their own unique system for determining the weight, the U system, which ranges from U= 95-100g all the way to 4U= 80-84g. Various racket makers have their own way of doing things and will be different to Yonex. A novice player should not bother about the weight so much, it is far more important to concentrate on your badminton skills.
The balance of a badminton racket refers to just that. There are three kinds, head heavy, head light, and evenly balanced. Head heavy rackets offer more weight at the top of the swing, giving more power and stability on contact with the shuttle. Head light rackets will enable you to swing the racket quicker, but less weight means less power and stability. Even balanced rackets give you a neutral feel.
The classic head shape is usually an oval shape, but you can also buy isometric head shapes. The isometric head is more square, which creates a larger sweet spot. If you can hit the shuttle in the middle of the racket head you will be hitting the sweet spot. With an enlarged sweet spot you will have more chance of getting power from off centre shots. For a novice this could be a useful advantage
The flexibility of the racket relates to how much flex there is. A stiff racquet will have less flexibility and as such it is unforgiving for a beginner. A flexible racket will obviously have more flex and this will give a beginner a bit more power, as you will have a kind of sling shot effect, but the downside is you will have less control. You should only buy a stiff flex racket when your technique is up to scratch, otherwise you may get shoulder problems, as the vibration from hitting the shuttle travels through your arm and into your shoulder joints.
Grip sizes also come with different systems. Yonex badminton have their G system, which ranges from G2 (the largest)to G5 (the smallest). Other brands use small, medium and large. Your grip size is your own personal preference, everyone is different.
These are the badminton racket basics and i hope this will help you when you choose your next racket.

Overgrip saturated with sweat?
Happened in a tournament this morning. My racquet was still soaked from last night I was playing : O. Should I add another over grip? What other ways can I do so my racquet doesn't get so slippery every time I serve.
Yes I use three main racquets, all aeropro drive cortex, I was just surprised that two of them were soaked so I had to lose my last racquet, a big risk if it breaks or gets soaked in-game.
I usually have 2 main racquets in identical setups and alternate. What you can do is buy one of those shammy type super absorbent towels and they can soak up the sweat off your grip pretty easily. I also wear wristbands to stop the sweat from my arm trickling down to my hands.

HOW TO WRAP AN OVERGRIP TO A TENNIS RACKET
Tennis Overgrip on top of a leather grip?
Two questions: 1) After a few demos raqcuets, I finally decided by a Wilson racket that comes with a leather Overgrip. The leather is fine, but after 15-20 minutes when the sweat starts I feel like losing control over some shock due to sweat. Now it is a good idea to add a Wilson Pro Grip at the top of the skin? Any experience with Overgrip on a leather grip? 2) usually beaten with a 4-3/8 "or grip size 3. However, in anticipation of making a Grip on the top of the original leather grip, I go to 4-1/2 "size = 2 instead from a Overgrip added between 1 / 16" -? 1 / 8 ", all recommendations Sorry, that should read 4-1/4" = size 2 - not 4-1/2 misspelled. "
You should always use Overgrip at the top of the original.
