Just your luck! Right now, the Dunlop racquet series (the newest versions - MFIL) are great - and they are on sale for $79.99. They were marked down from their original price which was $149.99. These racquets are currently used by pros such as Tommy Haas, Amelie Mauresmo.. :)\n\nExplanation: Ownership changed hands for Dunlop, and the previous owners had a lot of inventory so they decided to dump it online.

What are you looking for?\n\nI bought mine at Play it Again Sports. They were used and a bit dirty, but they were so much cheaper.\n\nTarget and Walmart carry them also if you are looking for something decent that is cheap. If you want something really good, try a sporting goods store.

I suggest PRINCE.\n\nI suggest you purchase a racquet from the PRINCE O3 Series. The Prince O3 Series is huge and shall nearly definitely have the right racquet for you. The series contains not only original racquets, but also combinations with older racquets to perfect the collection.

If your looking for a drums set in that price range the "pearl forum" would probably one of the better choices. The pearl set is $399.99. Another good set that's inexpensive is the "pulse pro 5 piece"..the one with the lacquer shell though. the one with the lacquer finish can be found for 379.99. It has mahogany shells, and one thing nice about this set is it has rim style suspension...takes stress off the toms and helps resonate the sound much better. take a look at some at www.musiciansfriend.com  ...that's probably the best place to look

Racquets are all different.  Even the same company makes a line of different racquets.  Your best bet is to go to a club and ask to demo a few.  Ask a local club pro to help you determine the best one for you.  See if they will go out and hit with you.  Just because I use a racquet does NOT mean it will do well for you.  The differing stiffnesses, weights and where the weight is located all effect how well a racquet plays.  If you get a head light racquet and you are a baseline player (seldom comes to the net) then you won't like the racquet.  If you are a net player then you don't want a racquet that is head heavy.  Take your time, demo a few and talk to a local pro about the specifics of your game before spending $100+ on a racquet you may not like.

Fact: Wilson is the best manufacturer of tennis rackets. They have been on the market for oh so very long and have rackets for every different style and level of player\n\nOpinion: As a tennis player of 12 years and a current college player i have found that Babolott has produced a magnificent line of rackets. They are currently being used by thousands of college and professional players across the World

I recommend going to a local pro shop and working with someone to find an appropriate racquet to match your physical characteristics and skill level.  You can often "demo" (try out) a few different frames at a time, allowing you to get a feel for the different technologies and vendors.\nSecond, enroll in a group lesson at a local tennis facility.  This is a low-cost way to be properly introduced to the game.  I highly discourage starting to play without getting professional instruction.  You will naturally develop bad habits that are nearly impossible to break once established.

The United States Tennis Association used to publish a rating guide....you used be able to closely rate yourself.....unless you are from Corpus Christi, Tx....all of their players fall at least 1-2 tiers from their actual ability.....and they win all the time....."go figure"....seriously, haven't played tennis competively....could never seem to get passed the Corpus district......check with USTA...maybe they have a web site and might have the ratings on it.......really don"t worry........unless you have been playing a really long time the type of racket does"t matter.....get a good reasonably priced one and then after you really get serious or better then you can think about upgrading.....besides, by that time you may have a "Nike" or "Wilson" endorsement contract and you will have to play with what they furnish you......"good luck on the tour"

There are several good ones. I personally like the Titleist SoLo and the Nike SuperSoft. A lot of people like the Maxfli Noodle. All of these have a soft feel and good distance.

The best tension is 1 or 2 above the max. lbs given to have the racquet strung.\nThe strings that do good for me are Ballistic Polymomo from Babolot. I break normal strings once a week, but with these it's about once a month.\nAll of this does the best for me.

Use a Yonex. Buy a carbon or composite material racquet.\nBefore you buy one, test a few, feel the feedback that you feel on your wrist everytime you whack the shuttle. A good racquet will give the "feel" of the shuttle, without jarring. \nGut tension should be good, with a twang or twing sound instead of the thwack sound...:) That sounded funny, but thats the best I can do to describe the sound...\nI would budget between Rs.1,300 to Rs.3,500 for one... depending entirely on the depth of your pocket.
