Start With Comfort
Hold the racket and check whether the grip feels secure without being too large or too small. A comfortable hold makes it easier to control your swings.
- Check that the handle feels natural in your hand.

- Tell the shop what kind of games you usually play.
- Ask to compare the feel of the available rackets.
Check the Details
Look at the racket's construction and ask about its intended use. If you are unsure what a feature means, ask the retailer to explain it before deciding.
- Ask what playing level or use the racket suits.
- Confirm what is included with the racket.
