Yeah, I am a 2 hander and I have tennis elbow. However, I think its from serves.

Skinny and have never worked out before so I lack in strength even though I can generate a decent amount of pace.

So the less stiff a racket means that is has more spin?

So I have a Prince Hybrid Hornet OS weighing 10.1 oz which is something that I won't use long term. I have tennis elbow which I believe is a result from using full polyester strings. Therefore, I am looking to get a racket that is somewhat heavier and better for the arm, so I don't have to...

Hows the durability on the strings? I started using full polys 4-5 months ago and I have tennis elbow so I am looking into a softer string.

I use full Head Sonic and have to say that I have grown accustomed to it. Like you said, I love the spin I can generate. I strung it at 60 on my Hybrid Hornet OS(avg is 60). Only downside is that I have tennis elbow now so I am attempting to use hybrids with the Sonic as the main. Hopefully it...

I might look into a heavier racket and using head sonic strings with maybe some prince synthetic gut with duraflex as I just broke the hybrids today. I am kind of reluctant to switch rackets but I can't continually be hurting my arm.

Ok I broke the hybrids and I was starting to play a little better with the, however, I didn't like the feel too much. Does anyone have recommendations for my strings that would be good with racquet? I am going to have poly mains and something that has good feel for the crosses but has good...

Yeah, I was surprised I had it too. I believe it is a combination of having a really light racquet, full poly strings, and a poor serve.

Oh I failed to mention that the the hybrids are strung at 58, with 60 beind average for my racquet. Also, the mains are moving a lot as of right now.

I am on the varsity tennis team at school and I have a case of tennis elbow which I have made a thread about previously. I had ben using Head Sonic Polys for 4 months on a Prince Hybrid Hornet Oversized until I started serving everyday. Then my arm started hurting a lot and I had tennis elbow. I...

I have a second Prince O3 and I was using some hybrids with Luxilon Alu power rough and Techifibre Biphase. Those strings felt pretty good, my arm was hurting but not was bad a last week. However, I still feel like I play better with my other strings, but I will gve these strings a chance since...

I use a Prince O3 Hybrid Hornet Oversize. I've had that raquet for about a year now.

Ok, I had my second physical therapy visit today. In addition to strengthening my back muscles she worked on my flexor tendons because I was told the muscle around there was pretty tight and then said I had tennis elbow. I would really just feel a little soreness by the flexor tendon as well as...

So I had my first physical therapist visit today and I was told that my serve was hurting my arm because of my back muscles not being strong enough. For my forehand, she told me that I was just overplaying. She recommended that I take a break, but we practice everday so I think I am going to...

I seem to feel the most discomfort around my bicep area. I would say that my elbow pain is inside on the backside and above my elbow with my palms facing forward. Like I stated earlier, that it was initially my serve that was bothering my arm but as of the last 2 days, its been my forehand.

Oh I forgot to mention, I am feeling pain basically from my elbow up. Most of the pain is concentrated around the muscles and I have some pain that wasn't there before in the elbow.

Hey guys, Well, I have been experiencing discomfort in my arm for about a month now. For a period, for whatever reason, my serve form was completely off, and I think I injured myself there. Then when I fixed my form, my arm would still bother me but my grounstrokes remained painless. So I...

Thanks for the advice guys. I'll have to experiment with different overgrips. And I understand that a week may be too long but I just put some on the other day and within an hour, it was losing its tack. So yeah, thanks again.

I have used this overgrip for probably half a year, I am on the high school team, however, after I bought a roll of them, the durability has gone down. My hand starts slipping after one playing session instead of a week. Can anyone telling me what could have caused this? What other overgrips...

I have Prince Hybrid Hornet Oversized and I used to use Prince Synthetic Gut. They were great strings but I started breaking them every 2 weeks and I decided that I had to switch strings. Than I began using head sonic pro full polys strung at 60 and they felt great until I broke them after 2...

So lets just say hypothetically if I were to get that racquet, do you think that I would be able to get sufficient topspin?

Than how was I able to hit more with an aeropro? Thanks for the response.

I should mention I use a semi-western forehand grip.

Hey guys. I am a 3.0-3.5 baseliner who has a Prince 03 Hybrid Hornet. I am not one of the stronger people but since I have started playing tennis, I grown a little stronger. So when I was buying my racquet I was looking for something with power, but not something like the Prince O3 Silver. So, I...

Most of my shots do go in but they're lacking topspin and I dont swing parallel to the ground either lol. Thanks a lot for the help and I'll definetely use some the of the pointers you guys gave me. I'll work on getting me videotaped while I practice as well.

Well I used to avoid wrist-break throughout my forehand(SW grip and I even caught the racket to avoid a wristbreak as I was instructed however I found out that was for eastern grips) but I never got any topspin and now I am tinkering with it. What would you guys recommend. I want to get a good...

I have attempted for a long time to get top spin with a SW(which is supposed to get good amounts of top spin) grip but I have been unsuccessful. Most my balls are relatively flat and its frustrating. Can someone be kind enough to review some key points so I can see if I am missing something big...

Also, at the point of contact, what angle should our wrist be? I do want top spin but I don't want to lose my accuracy.

My top spin forehand is decent I would have to say however, I seem to get minimal top spin. Would that have something to do with me catching my racket in my follow through to prevent wrist break? I use a semi-western grip. I understand that you are supposed to bend your knees and all that but I...
