   Wanted to know if wilson Hyper Hammer 145 be good for beginners. I Noted that playing with lighter rackets like HEAD i 110 Squash Racket was not suiting my game as it doesnt generate lot of power. How do you rate this racket against HEAD i 110?

      Sorry I haven’t tried either but I will say it’s sometimes helpful to have a little more head-heavy racket because it helps guide your swing path a little bit. This is probably especially true for a beginner. I like the feel of a head-heavy racket too!

      Hi,

      It’s great racket overall – my favourite so far (and I’ve tried a few). It’s great for beginners and club league players alike. This racket feels lighter than some my other (theoretically) lighter ones. Good balance of power and accuracy. Get some decent strings for it and you can’t go wrong. It’s cheap too 🙂

   I started back into squash with this racket as a cheap £25 buy off amazon, just to last me a few months. I played awful with it, making lots of mis-hits, and then I bought the £125 tecnifibre ap 125 and things got better. I also got the carboflex 125 for when i needed a more controlled game, which I did find instantly better than the AP for that.

   BUT, lately I’ve been making errors on the AP too, so I randomly thought why not try the Wilson again. I couldn’t believe it, it felt amazing compared to the AP and even carboflex, no errors, loads of accuracy, still powerful.

   I know some of it is phycology, and some of it maybe changing technique, but just couldn’t believe it. I’m even considering using the £25 Wilson to play my next few matches compared to my tecnifibres.
