So, I think Im going to be on the school's tennis team this year, so I need a new racquet. Any suggestions? Im looking to spend about $60-$80 (I get 20% off at Dicks Sporting Goods). I want the size to be about 100-110. I have a slower, average swing speed(still kinda new to tennis, so im still getting the hang of it). And I checked out Tennisshop.com for a while, so Im thinking about a Wilson or Prince. I don't know if there are any tennis players on the forum, but, I thought I would ask. -------------

I don't like tennis or anybosy that takes the class. I do have respect for some of the pros because I suck hard at tennis. It's one of the only sports I am totally uncapable of doing well at. Talking to some of the tennis players at my school, prince is the way to go because wilson specializes in many things while prince is more dedicated to tennis. |

i was actually pretty decent in tennis... good enough that when tennis came around in gym, I was one of the first to be asked to be people's partners. I don't really know all the ins and outs of rackets... I just usually went for a pre-strung that was light. I think the wilson I got was around $90, and it's about 4-5 years old by now and still hits fairly well. I know if you really want a good racket, get an unstrung frame, and then have it strung to your string preferences. I have a wilson, and most of the rackets i saw on the team were wilson or prince. Honestly, if you're just starting out, pick a price range and buy one that's made out of a decent material (carbon fiber etc.), and feels good in your hands. |
