Tennis Head Light What tennis racket do you recommend me to get?
I'm 15 years old and would consider myself as an intermediate player. I went to a website and it said I should get a racket with:
Material: composite or graphite on sale or close-out
Weight (strung): at least 11 ounces
Balance: head light or even
Stiffness: medium stiff to very stiff
String Pattern: 14 or 16 mains
Head Size: 90-110 square inches
Length: between 27 and 27.5 inches
The problem is I can't find a good racket that meets these standards.
A tennis racquet is definately a personal preference. dont let the internet tell you what to get. Demo a few racquets and if you like a certain one, buy it.
However, I will suggest Head, Prince, or Wilson raquets. The Head flexpoints are amazing racquets with lots of power and a great feel. They are about 10-11 ounces. They are great for intermediate players and I used them for awhile before trying out some Wilsons. The Prince O 3's with speedports are amazing racquets. The frame is extremely thin so you can generate a ton of racquet head speed. It is perfect for heavy topspin players. The Wilson n-code racquets are nice, I currently use the n5. However, the Wilson racquets dont have as solid a feel as Head or Prince.
Bottom line, dont stick to those standards. Find what you like, and what fits your style of playing and it should all come full circle for you.
Demo the racquet before you buy it. And I suggest Polylon 16 strings. They feel awesome, and retain their feel over time.
