New racquet time!

Hello guys,

Can someone recommend a racquet that's like the Prince TT Propel but not? I'm looking to move over to Head after my Prince racquet has cracked (RIP), but am open to other brands, except Wilson. Last time I had a Wilson I got shoulder problems cause it was too heavy. I need UK prices, and preferably under £50.

Thanks!

Hi Keegan,

Sorry to hear about your cracked racquet, had that RIP sensation many a time.

I would just suggest not to write off any brand of racquet as such. Wilson's will make good racquets and bad racquets, light and heavy- same as pretty much all the other brands. A good way to find a suitable racket similar to your own is to search it on tenniswarehouse. It has a racquet comparison tool which allows you to input your racquet specifications and compare them to current and previous racquets on the market.

Also £50 is very cheap so you might want to look at clearance sections in websites such as PWP, Pro-Direct Tennis, Tennisnuts and Tennis Planet to find a good price.

Good luck!

Paul

I would think not only about the actual weight but also about the balance because a head heavy balance is bad for your arm and also is more difficult to maneuver especially at the net. I really like the Prince EXO3 Tour, it has a head light balance and a very flexible frame giving great feel and touch and it has decent power and great reviews. Definitely worth a try.

Re: New racquet time!

£50 is too low, can't figure a good racquet that the price is under it.
