Hi guy... what do you think is the more important to hit a heavy ball racket head speed or racket weight?
The ball weight!Hi guy... what do you think is the more important to hit a heavy ball racket head speed or racket weight?
It's flawed logic. Most players can swing lighter racquet faster then a heavy one. So, it's really a personal combo for every player, heaviest racquet that you can swing fastest.racket weight is 1st factor.. but you need to swing it.
but using the assumption that equal swing on both rackets.. simple math.. the heavier racket wins this contest. Easily
So if I have a -light HH racket- vs a -heavy HL racket- the one with more static weight (in this case the HL racket) will hit the ball harder assuming head speed is the same?
SW104 perfect exampleNot necessarily. The one with more swing weight will hit harder. You could have a lighter, but more head heavy racquet, that has more swing weight then heavier, head light racquet.

I shorten my frames by 0.25” to reduce swingweight, then add mass to the head. This way I can still swing fast but have the advantage of more mass too. Get to have my cake and eat it too.
Remove the buttcap. Saw 0.25" off the end. Replace buttcap. Secure with several tightly-wrapped layers of 2"-wide stretchable packing tape.How do you go about shortening your frames 0.25"?
