Has anyone used a particular type of racquet or string job to help change one's mechanics?
I've noticed if I play with a low powered string set up, it makes me drive more and swing more aggressively. So would there be a benefit to use a really low powered set up to help me hit out more?
Conversely, I've had some string set ups that increased the ball angle and height and in order to correct that I have to hit a much flatter style of swing?
Or would playing with a small racquet head actually force one to hit the ball more consistently?
Then it makes me wonder if bad racquet choices might reinforce poor swinging habits. Too high powered racquets might make people swing through less and racquets that are too heavy might make have a similar effect although for different reasons?
Would someone with a powerful racquet feel great with their groundstrokes but then can't hit a volley in, so then they avoid the net like the plaque despite the racquet might be a contributor to their weakness at the net?
