If you are looking for an oversize racket that will make it easier to score better and have more fun while you’re playing, this new model from Wilson is the ideal choice. It’s got a nice big oversized head and if you’re just starting out, this will give you the edge you need. There is always controversy over whether or not oversized rackets should be allowed, but the bottom line is – for beginning players they do make a difference.

For those struggling to improve their accuracy, a racket with an oversized head is usually the best answer, at least until the player gets to the point where they have learned how to control their shots. Beginners often find that rackets have heads that are just too small to work with and if you’re not perfect, chances are you may find it difficult to hit the ball just right. This racket from Wilson, one of the most respected names in the industry, offers a solution that is not only economical, but also actually works.

Despite the oversized head, we found that the racket was well balanced and easy to hold. It’s light enough to keep your arms from getting fatigued, while being substantial enough to get the job done. We were very impressed with the overall appeal of the racket and found that it was one of the best oversized rackets we have ever played with. If you’ve had a bad experience in the past with an oversized racket, give this one a shot and see if you don’t see a major improvement.

Our favorite part of the racket was the fast dry grip, which was comfortable to hold and reduced the occurrence of blisters. We also like the fact that it comes in many different grip sizes, making it a lot easier for people to find the one that is perfect for them. We recommend testing it out in the store to see which grip is right for you to further customize the overall fit of the racket.

Overall, we highly recommend this racket to beginning players or to those that are struggling with their accuracy. It’s got just the right weight and the head isn’t too big either. In some cases, manufacturers tend to go a bit overboard when they are making oversized rackets, but Wilson has hit just the right note with this one. We really enjoyed using it and it quickly became one of our new favorites. We’ll be putting it into heavy rotation when we play and once you give it a try, you may want to do the same thing.
