There are normally three categories you will be dealing with when making a racquet selection:
1. Player: generally heavier, head light, and *flexible. This category is suited to fast swing speeds and those seeking control and who can generate their own racquet speed (power). 2. Tweener: generally slightly lighter, evenly balanced, and a little stiffer. This category is suited to a moderate swing speed and those seeking a little more power from the larger head size and stiffness. 3. Game Improvement: generally much lighter, head heavy, and stiff. This category is suited to a very slow or short swing and those seeking maximum power from the larger head size and stiffness. A note: larger racquet heads have longer strings, and longer strings will produce a softer string bed and a softer string bed will generate a little more power. * Some "player" racquets are stiff but have incorporated other features that contribute to "flexibility". johngugel@tennisrocks.net
