Junior Tennis Racquets
New Tennis Racquet– Head vs. Prince
I’m a high school tennis player (junior) looking to get a new, higher level racquet. I’m rated somewhere around a 3.5 or 4 on the NTRP and my swing speed is right around medium (S1 or S2).
I have my search narrowed down to two racquets– the Prince OZONE Four ($170) or the Head LiquidMetal 4 ($90). The ozone four is newer I believe, that could explain the price difference. Price difference aside though, any recommendations on which racquet would better suit me?
I’d definatly go with the Liquidmetal 4. The Ozone is a power racquet for shorter swings and as a result you’d have to either change your swing or game alltogether.
The Liquidmetal 4 just seems to hit good with everyone I’ve ever seen play with it. It is a great racquet and prob the best in the entire liquidmetal series.
However, if you are willing to spend $170 then I think going an extra thirty for a Prince O3 Speedport Red would actually be best. That is the perfect racquet for a player like you. I used to play with this racquet and I went undefeated in single’s play. I however have switched to a Speedport Platinum (I’ve switched to a power player)
Best of luck =]
