      I believe the following article will be helpful to you in recommending rackets. Regardless, remember this rule: "Put yourself in your guests' shoes."

      1. Treat guests who can provide reference opinions

      Once a golfer has experience using a racquet, it becomes much easier to choose the right racquet for them. If they understand the different technical numbers, they can find a racquet that suits the type of player he wants to be. When choosing, we need to look at the manufacturing data on the racket and know how these data affect the racket and the type of player it is suitable for. When we talk about each set of data, we are discussing its impact on the elasticity of the racket, control performance, rotation and comfort of the hand. Of course, there are other important factors, but these points are the focus of our consideration.

      2. Treating customers who buy rackets for the first time

      For guests who are new to tennis, it is difficult to decide what type of racket to choose. This requires a long process and may not be 100% accurate, because such guests often do not understand the type of player they want to be. For a player like this, I recommend considering his height, body shape, and physical fitness. If he is a tall, strong, and physically fit player, I recommend using a racket with a softer body and less elasticity, because they can complete large and fast swings; Players with poor physical fitness are suitable for using a racket with a harder body and greater elasticity, so that their shots can obtain sufficient power and depth without making large movements; finally, if you are not sure which type they belong to, then you can let them try a medium-sized racket. After they actually get into tennis, they will gradually discover what they need from the racket, because then they will have some reference points. When you choose a racket for a client who is new to tennis, you must make him understand that this racket will not suit him forever.
