Is it ok to use 2 shock dampeners for my tennis racket?

Question

i bought a pack of 2 shock absorbers at the store today. my tennis racket makes this pinging noise everytime i hit a ball, and the ball ends up going too high and even out of court sometimes. and even after i put a shock absorber, it still makes a pinging noise. would it be ok if i place one shock absorber on the top if the racket and one on the bottom? thanks

Answer 1

as long as the dampeners are outside of the crossed string pattern you can have more than one. so yes, one on top and one on bottom is fine and legal for tournament play.

Answer 2

Shock absorbers are good to use for some people. The pinging sound might just be because of you string or the tension is too low, but once the string gets tight normally the pinging sounds will go away.  For different people they might prefer the shock absorbers and some might not, it depends on how you like it or not. Normally when the ball goes to high is because of your movement or your racquet is tilted up when you hit it and that causes the ball to go up. Normally when you ball goes out is when you dont control the ball good enough and you jsut need practice to solve that problem

Answer 3

if your racket makes a pinging noise it means either the racket is strung at the wrong tension or that the racket is a piece of c**p

Answer 4

ONE ON TOP AND THE OTHER AT BOTTOM.IT IS GOOD...

Answer 5

It should be ok, but if you consistently hit the ball out of the court it has nothing to do with the shock absorber.

Try to learn how to generate top spin on your shots. This will help to lower the trajectory on your hits as well as increase the likelyhood they will go in.

I think the shock absorber just makes it more comfortable to use the racket and play. However, the basic stroke used to hit the ball is what really determines whether the ball goes in or not.
