Answer 1

well you could try out a few, one racquet I really like for team tennis and is super light is the Raptor by HEAD, and all the team version racquets by HEAD, if you think you can play with it you could try a little heavier racquet like the n-code by Wilson. Hey and a great place to shop is tenniswarehouse.com and tennisexpress.com but beware if you racquet is cracked it takes about 2 months to get a new one if you order online just a helpful tip.

Answer 2

Don't go for too light a racquet otherwise you'll suffer from arm problems due to the instability caused by mishits.  My suggestion is to get something with a headsize 105 and below and weight 280g and above.

Some racquets come to mind:

Prince - Speedport / o3 Red

Wilson - KFour 105, KPro Open / nPro Open

Babolat - Pure Drive Cortex

Dunlop - Aerogel 500 Tour

All 4 racquets have a good balance of power vs control.  Good luck!

Answer 3

yeah, i really like the prince 03 speedport series as well.  Their oversized racquets may seem a little heavy when you hold it, but thanks to the speedport technology, you can swing it as fast as a racquet with a small head.  this way it gives you more speed with more power and you probably won't have to try and put in much of your own power into the swing.

Answer 4

I would go with the ncode 6.2 if you can find anywhere that still has it in stock.  It is 10 ounces unstrung and 10.5 ounces strung.  That is the bast light racket that I know.  It provides you with really good serves and I has like no shock what so ever.

Answer 5

The Head flexpoint line absorb some of the power and give you a lot of control over the ball which is good for a power player like you.

Answer 6

Answer 7

From personal experience the best tennis racket you should buy is the one that feels the best in your hand. By this, I mean the grip should feel comfortable when you play your shots. The brand should be a second consideration when buying a tennis racket although a lot of people make it their first. Good luck with your decision.

Cheers !
