I'm a newer player (have played about 30 games), but I'm getting better and I'm looking to upgrade from my cheapy $15 racquet.

Can anyone recommend a good racquet for me to look at / test out that won't break the bank. I'm willing to spend up to $100, maybe $150 if there is a particular model that is supposed to be phenomenal.

I'm fairly strong, but I don't want the heaviest racquet out there. Something mid-ranged would be great.

Thanks in advance!

  1. Things You’ll Need:

    Racquetball Goggles

    Racquetball Rackets

    Racquetballs

    Water Bottles With Squeeze Caps

    Step

    1

    Visit a store that has a wide selection of rackets.

    Step

    2

    Experiment by handling numerous rackets. Try to find a comfortable one with a smaller grip width. The smaller grip allows more flexibility for your wrist.

    Step

    3

    Allow your middle and ring fingers to almost touch the bottom of your thumb.

    Step

    4

    Decide if you want a racket that's rectangular or teardrop-shaped. A rectangular racket allows you to more easily hit a ball that is moving alongside a wall. The tear-shaped rackets tend to have a larger sweet spot, which makes it easier to make contact with the ball.

    Step

    5

    Buy a light racket for more control.

    Step

    6

    Purchase a heavier racket to increase your power.

  2. Try the Wilson n190 Racquetball Racquet. It only ways 180 grams and is balanced head heavy. Should retail right at $100. It uses their new "ncode" technology to make the racquet twice as strong while being light. I've played with one recently (a friend's) and was impressed.
