Hello all! Well, when I say I'm new to this game, I've played it for years on and off, however I've always just grabbed a nearest racket and cracked on. I've started playing once a week and would like to buy something a little better. I'm in no doubt that the racket I'll buy will be better than I am, however I don't see that being an issue! I can't use all the performance of my Porsche (at least not in a controlled manor), but I still enjoy playing!! I've found this racket buying process to be quite complex - do I want Titanium, Graphite or Carbon (or something else)?! etc etc etc So, to the question - what racket should I buy? Budget wise, a nominal budget of £30-£40 seems to buy something worth playing with - I don't need the absolute latest greatest racket from 2015. For that budget on my favourite shopping site (Amazon) you seem to be able to buy a racket from known brands. I look forward to your thoughts. Cheers The Moose
up your budget to £60 and you can have one of my user-friendly Victor meteor x60 (mx60). This was a £110 (online price) racket ~1year ago. /shameful advertising failing that, I'd definitely consider the yonex voltric 5 Do you play at the wycombe centre?
Forgive me for asking, but why are you recommending those 2 rackets? I'd prefer to know why I'm buying what I'm buying if that makes sense - I like to make informed decisions!
