What's a good beginning tennis racket?

Question

What a good tennis racket for beginners? I don't want one that's tooo expensive but I also don't want one that's a cheapy either.

Answer 1

I would recommend the racket in this link. It should be good for a beginner and isn't overly expensive. It's always best to get a fairly good racket to make sure you can play to your best but not  too expensive encase you decide you don't like it.

Answer 2

I know you don't want a wal-mart type racuqet, but that's really all you need.  But if you want something high quality that's still cheap, try this link:

All these racquets are over $50, but it's a good value considering what most of them used to cost.  

But whatever route you take, don't worry so much about the specs of the racquet.  Just buy one you like.  After you've gotten more experience, the racquet's qualities will actually matter to you.  Then you'll want to worry about what specific racquet you buy.

Answer 3

A Prince racket is good for beginners. Try their Pre-strung rackets or their Junior rackets, they give that quality that is perfect for beginners.

Answer 4

prince probally becasue they are good and they last long but they are also not that expencive

Answer 5

Your best bet is to go to a sporting goods store where they have someone who is qualified to help you find the right racquet for you.  It won't cost you anything for the advice and you are more likely to enjoy the game when you have the right equipment.  I don't recommend that you listen to anyone who gives you a recommendation without even knowing your physical characteristics.  And someone who says, "Oh, you should get a Prince (or whatever brand)" isn't being helpful since there are so many models of racquets available from a single manufacturer.  For example, there are signifcant differences in weight between the Prince O3 Speedports and O3 Hybrids.  Granted, a salesperson that works on commission will be likely to try to steer you towards a more expensive racquet, but you need to make it clear that you have a budget.  You'll want a pre-strung frame since those fall on the less expensive end of the spectrum.  Expect to spend between $60 - $100 for a decent racquet.  Sounds a little pricy, but considering I just dropped close to $200 on a Wilson K-Six-One, it sounds like a bargain to me.

Answer 6

Head rackets are good...
