A tennis player's racket is like a soldier's gun. It is the most important piece of equipment that you take onto the court. Despite this, countless people use rackets that are ill equipped for their level and style of play. This can make the process of learning tennis un-enjoyable and potentially dangerous (ie: injuries). For those who are serious about learning the game I recommended making the investment in a good racket from the very first lesson. Learning to play tennis is difficult enough, and even more so, if you are using an old racket.
What qualities should you look for in your first racket? Opinions differ and often depend on your body type, but for most of my students I generally recommend a racket that has an even or head heavy balance and is relatively light. It is important to realize that a head heavy racket need not be heavy; head heavy simply refers to how the overall weight of the racket is distributed. For example, if you have a 3 lb racket, but 2.8 lbs is located in the grip, that racket would be considered head light, but overall extremely heavy (for comparison an average adult sized racket weighs anywhere from 8-13 ounces).
The best way to determine if a racket is head heavy or head light is to use the "finger test". To do this first find the center point of the racket. This is the point that is exactly half way between the two ends. The next step is to take the racket and try to balance it on your index finger at its center point. If it falls towards the head, it is "head heavy". If it falls towards the grip it is "head light". If it stays balanced it is "neutral".
Why look for these qualities in a racket? First and foremost, a lighter racket will help insure that you do not injure your arm as you are learning proper technique. Secondly, a head heavy racket moves through the air with less physical effort than a head light racket. This allows you to focus on developing smoother strokes without having to "muscle" the ball over the net with your arm.
As you progress you may eventually switch to a head light racket because these tend to afford slightly more control, especially at higher swing speeds. Rackets like these are often referred to as "player's rackets" because many advanced players prefer the greater amount of control they can get with them.
Tennis specialty shops often have a wide selection of demo rackets. Many of these shops will allow you to demo/borrow a racket for several days until you find a racket that works for you. The most common brand name rackets are Wilson, Prince, Yonex, and Dunlop. Rackets are an investment in your game, and can be pretty expensive, so take advantage of an opportunity to test drive a few before you decide on the best one!

New Prince Ex03 Racquets Are Out!
Prince Tennis rackets have always had a reputation for large racket head size and were geared to the average club player and those who need the larger sweet spot. Prince is now producing mid sized rackets that measure up performance wise to the likes of Wilson K Factor rackets and the popular Head MicroGel Extreme Prestige rackets. For players at the 5.0 to 7.0 NTRP level, these rackets offer the control and shot precision that’s absolutely essential to win.
One of the most anticipated Prince Tennis racket is the 2009 Prince EXO3 Graphite 93. The smaller head size gives the player more touch, control and the ability to generate more spin. The Prince EXO3 technology racket series is giving competitive tennis players an advantage in 2009. EX O3 is prince’s racket technology that incorporates two technologies called Energy Channel and Energy Bridge.
The Prince EXO³ Graphite rackets featuring EXO³ technology for increased energy return, more ball spin and pinpoint accuracy average about $199 and are available at quality online retail tennis shops. Prince’s Energy Channel™ feature provides up to a 25% increase on spin and up to 26% more control. The Energy Bridge is a revolutionary idea behind EXO3 technology. It is an exo-skeletal structure that suspends the string bed from the frame, that increases the virtual head size for up to an 83% larger sweet spot. In addition, frame vibration is reduced by an amazing 50%. Enhancing the dynamic effects of the Energy Bridge™, is the patented Energy Channel™. It is a sculpted groove within the frame providing added stability, improving ball control, and increasing ball spin by up to 25%.
Prince’s midplus racquet and mid size are perfect for a good intermediate, advanced player, as well as the next generation tour player.
Two specific rackets to check out are the Prince EXO3 Graphite 100 Tennis Racquet and the Prince EXO3 Graphite 93 Tennis Racquet
The Prince EXO³ Graphite 93 uses the EXO³ technology to create better ball return, more spin and greater shot accuracy. Energy Channel™ provides up to a 25% increase on spin and up to 26% more control. Prince has combined the EXO³ Technology in a Graphite frame to create a racquet with more spin and a heavier ball. This racquet is for an aggressive player with long strokes.
Just like the Prince EXO3 Graphite 93 racket, the Prince EXO3 Graphite 100 Tennis Racquet utilizes EXO³ technology for increased energy return, more ball spin and pinpoint accuracy. It has the Energy ChannelTM and Energy Bridge technology yet with a slightly larger head size that puts it in the mid size category.
Buying your Prince Tennis rackets online may be a better choice. Many Tennis shops have extra free giveaways and prices discounts on other merchandise such as Tennis bags, free string, grips, and highly discounted clothing. When you purchase over a set dollar amount, shipping will either be free or under a dollar, and in the case of the Prince EXO3 rackets, they can customize your racket with tuned port inserts to get the sweet spot just the way you like it.
