Wilson
4.2
(43)
"Clash 100, if you want a cheat code racket (power, spin) and you have bad form that otherwise would hurt your arm."
"I think the Wilson ultra is a great racket."
"Wilson Shift is the best."
"Wilson Clash 100"
"I switched to Wilson clash 100, which I love."
"I Love it, great for the arm. Test it out."
"Wilson Blade is without a doubt the best all round racquet you can ask for."
"I would still highly recommend the tennis warehouse demo program."
"Hello, try wilson ultra UL for developing good speed (or any 260-280g racquet) use with multifilament strings for absortion (when light racquet, for less arm/body impact)."
"Racquet: Wilson clash (on sale now)"

Babolat
4.2
(33)
"She decided on babolat pure drive team, grip 1, and I strung it up with Velocity MLT in pink to match the pink over grip at her request."
"Pure Drive 100, if you want a cheat code but don't have a tender arm."
"Pure Drive 100%."
"Power and Spin !!! dont look around, find your racket within the Babolat range."
"Probably the Yonex vcore 100 or the babolat pure aero 100."
"Something like this https://www.tennis-warehouse.com/Babolat_Boost_Aero/descpageRCBAB-BABOOA.html"
"Babolat pure aero"
"Pure Drive non-light"
"Find a used Pure Drive off eBay."
"Something like the pure drive (although I'm not the biggest fan) would be the most common racquet to get."

Head
4.0
(27)
"Check out head team rackets. Boom, speed and radical. 102-105 heads. They are light, easily customized, and great hitters."
"Radical mp, great all around and suitable for any playstyle."
"My research led me to the Head Radical Microgel Midplus. It's $90 at Tennis-Warehouse and it's been great for me."
"Buying new, go for one of these: Head Radical S Graphene XT; Head Speed MP Graphene XT. Both are $99 right now."
"I would also recommend getting a second hand one maybe 2022-2023 models. My recommendations are head gravity line or yonex ezone."
"Head Speed Pro 2022"
"Speed MP, if you want a racket that's still easy to use but is more of a 'player's' frame that emphasizes control."
"Gravity pro."
"Head S1 h6."
"Check out the head boom series"

Yonex
4.2
(14)
"I’d get the ezone ace 100 super good beginner racket and if I remember correctly it’s about $90"
"Probably the Yonex vcore 100 or the babolat pure aero 100."
"I changed from that one to the 2021 Yonex VCore 100. Amazing change."
"I would go with pretty much any 100sqin racket that’s between 280-300g, a used one would also be great. An Ezone 100 or 100L for instance."
"Ezone 100"
"Honestly the ezone is a great racket for beginners, probably in the 100sq in head size."
"I would recommend yonex rackets."
"Try Ezone 98."
"Ezone Tour 98 might be a decent fit, but you will need to add weight."
"My pick would be the Shift or VCore, they personally feel the best in hand for me but definitely worth demoing to see what works for you."

"Artengo racquets are just as good as the most popular brands."
"Should be a great beginner racquet! Artengo generally has very good quality racquets."
"The TR160 is a fine beginner racquet and is an improvement over what you are playing with now."
"The TR160 is probably the best racket for you out of that Artengo line."
"TR160 would be a great racket and a good value for a beginner."
"Will go for that one anyways because it’s a great price for graphite one."
"The artengo at decathlons’ are great for beginners."

Dunlop

"Other popular options are the Dunlop FX500 or Ezone 100."
"Dunlop CX 200 tour is fantastic and should be on heavy discount."
"Dunlops are 67% off on tenniszon right now maybe also amazon?"

"Tennis Warehouse has some great buying guides so I would begin there."
