How to Chooce Tennis Racquet

Tennis racquets is the most important element in the game of tennis. Selection of a good racket will improve your game.

Here are 7 parameters to help you find a Best Tennis Racquet that suits your style of play:



1.  Racket length, shape and size head racquet.

length

At length racquet difference half inch is actually not so noticeable effect. but for some players there who prefer long racket. Advantage of the long racquet is the first to add a range and both will increase the power for extending the distance between the point of load (sweetspot) and torque, but the loss will be more difficult to maneuver racket.


Tennis racquets head size assortment starting from 85-116. for simplicity's sake, the larger the size of the racket it would make a bigger sweetspot and will make increased elasticity of the strings that will be easy to produce high power, but it will make the controls blow. and conversely, the smaller the size of the racket head will make it easy to control the blow but it will be very difficult to make a strong power. other than that, the larger the size of the racket will make less and less ball hit the frame of the racket.

Balance point is the point at length racquet racket which divides into two equal parts by weight. 

50 means the balance point lies the balance point 50% of the length of the tennis racquet. Tennis racquets with a balance point is called the type of balance 

Balance point 45 means the location of point balancenya 45% of the length of the tennis racquet. This tennis racquets type head-light. 45% measured from the handle. 


The point of balance is more than 50 so-called head-heavy.

2. Bending stiffness index

Bending stiffness index is also called overall stiffness. This index indicates the level of flexibility. Tennis racquets stiffness will affect how long the ball will stick to the strings. same as the elasticity of the string functions. more flexible racquet ball was then able to make longer diraket about 3-5 milliseconds. 3-5 milliseconds judging is not so influential, but in fact dg this short time, is the extra time to make spin. But the advantage is stiff racquet, make a power increase and will increase the area of ​​the sweetspot, but will make the hands vibration increases.

3. Torsional stiffness index



     Torsional stiffness index or twist stiffness index shows how much tennis racquets     affected when the ball close to his frame. 
       High index showed slight vibration, the index racket stiffnessnya 6 is a good type.

     4. Vibration Damping index



      This index indicates how quickly the tennis racquet stopped vibrating after contact         with the ball  and how much vibration is felt in the grip.  
      Tennis racquets with vibration damping high index pointing to a large vibrations and      quick stop.

\     5. Sweet spot index




     A sweet spot is a small part or a point on the surface of the tennis racquets which  when in contact with the ball produces the least amount of vibration and produce the      best  response.  

     Sweet spot shows the location and size of the sweet spot, where the greater the value,  the better the racket.  

     Sweet spots can also be found alone by dropping a tennis ball on a racket that we put  on the ground about 15-30 cm from the surface racket. Vibration will not feel or felt      little while to fall right in the sweet spot of his point.
    
      6.  Sweet spot size 



     Sweet spot is also related to the shape and size of the tennis raquet head, greater tennis racquet head  size, the greater the sweet spot. The smaller racket head, the smaller the spot sweet.

      7.     Grip

       Tennis grip size is very important to note because of the long finger of each person is   different. so will affect the strength of the grip. sizes typically used in inches. This size   is the circumference of the grip. starting from 4 1/8- 4 5/8. Asians usually sized for the   hand we are not far away from the 4 quarter. to determine the size of the grip can be       measured as shown below.

          I hope the 7 parameters above can help facilitate your finding your dream racket.

      And I hope you comment. Thanks
