definitely not gonzo, i like to make angles and hit with top spin i have a very close raquet grip. i had a head raquet (ix3 mp: 98sq inch) with a tiny sweetspot and if i tried to swing very fast i would probably hit the frame of the racquet, but i don't want an OS racquet either maybe somthing between 100-102sq.in.

i also have a question about a racquet. I play like gonzo, and have good succes with going for my shots ( i have the one handed backhand as well). I use the Wilson k factor kblade team. Is there a better racquet for a person like me who goes for his shots more than most?

I always tell people to get the heaviest racket they can handle. Any 'team' racket is fairly light, I'd at least demo something with the same sort of headsize but a bit heavier. Maybe 10.6 (sweet-spot for manufacturers apparently) to 11.2 oz.

i would like to know, how you know what weight can somebody hande? because its different to play for one hour or four hour with the same weight. thats stupid advice for beginners. if he plays like gonzo, he definitely need smaller head - under 100. shots will be little bit slower but more controlled. heavy racquet can destroy your strokes more than any other parameter.

by **jayl0ve** » Wed, 03 Mar 2010 10:15

You find out how much weight you can handle by trying out different racquets and ruling out those that seem too heavy for you. Not too hard to understand...and yes it is actually good advice.

by **Yeikey** » Wed, 03 Mar 2010 10:29

lol, how beginner know how much is much for him? he would play with 350g racquet and think he is pro player. but its good racquet for him? i dont think so..
