I would reccomend it to toddlers- kindergarders, but after that, it's best to just buy a...

He never...

I struggled to hit at first, between altitude (couldn't breathe after running) and a new racquet. But after a few minutes, the racquet started feeling great. — WORKS GREAT FOR ME — I bought it that day, and had it strung and shipped to Florida. From the first day it arrived, I was happy, despite having worried about a purchase that was only tested at 5,000 feet, for use at sea level. But I had a winning season with the racquet and am really enjoying it. — PRICE — I think the price was average for a decent racquet - between $100 and $200; can't honestly remember what I paid. But as many hours as I play, I could justify several hundred dollars for a racquet. This one was quite reasonable. —...
