I need to get this racquet restrung. The guy at Dicks Sporting Goods asked me how much tension should it be set to.. Any suggestions guys ? TIA !!

I used 26.5 but I would not recommend this racquet at all. It's head heavy which greatly impaired my accuracy

Basically, Higher Tension = More Control; Lower Tension = More Power. Comes down to player preference. Personally I like higher tension because I like to get the ball as close to the tin as possible but if you like power.. go looser. Or something in the middle if you want well-rounded. Cheers Paul

I tryed to think of what could possibly make a sound like that, and I think it would be most likely involved in the tension mechanism. Try adjusting it all the way so it's hard to peddle, then begin backing off the tension untill you found your desired setting.

I contacted the seller about that question and they said the all the racquets the they (midwest sports) sell are strung with 16g synthetic gut tennis string and have a manufacturer's 1 year warranty against defects in workmanship.

I had to take mine apart to fix this problem once. Just be sure to have 2 sets of hands. The tension could make parts come loose. Very easy to reassemble.

The racquets are very light as they are just meant to hit the birdie. I wouldn't use them on a tennis ball.

Hello, if you still have the red button, take the racket apart and try to put it back on. If you don't have the button or if it doesn't stay back on, I'm afraid you'll have to write it off as a loss. I have bought about 6 of those rackets for myself and others and some are better quality than others -- although in general they are rather fragile. I have had to throw at least one away after little use. I can't tell you which ones are the best. But if you order another one, choose a different model. Good thing they are so cheap! Good luck! Tim

i don't think you tuned it properly... do not apply too much tension, especially when tuning new strings. after all the stock strings are not good so get a set of good strings and start playing!

To be honest I love the set!!! But the driver I am still having a really hard time with keeping straight. The irons I have improved big time in my game with the 1"+. But overall I'm happy. Gonna take lessons with new clubs to make sure they are right for me. Sorry I'm not much of help. But goodluck

I haven't used the other DHS rackets but still it's heavy compared to my old rackets of Joola and Donic. Hope it helps.

In my opinion it is way above a beginners Racket? I have had 4 of them over the last 10 years and believe it is as good as any on the market. I understand it is the biggest selling Racket of all time! Jako

After you have the rings locked into the yellow lines, with the pole at a 45 degree angle (base pointing into the court), hook up and tighten the guy lines (but not too tight). Then you lift up slightly on the pole and scoot the base of the pole outward until the pole is standing straight up. This should tighten up the guy lines and the top of the net.Having said all that, the rings do slip on the lines. I had to tighten them up quite frequently during play. So, after a few months, I threw them away and just use some cam buckle straps I got from Home Depot (4 pack for under $10). So worth it to not have to deal with the guy lines that came with the net.

Hi,I understand the question but I recommend speaking to whoever is going to sell you the string about this. A major sports supermarket has qualified technicians who can give you free advice on the string type and tension (mine was medium) . Hope this helps.

Unscrew both the black knobs that attach the hydraulic cylinders to the rowing handles. Lower/raise to find the tension that works for you. I hope this helps!

The raquet comes prestrung with nylon which ny daughter 44 yr old likes. I at 83 use Gamma polyester ZO TOUR17, The polyester is harder to control and can be hard on the arm if you are a big hitter, but I;m a wiley old spinner and get a lot of power with slow strokes. Hope this helps

This is a super racquet, it's light, very responsive, I think you'll love it.

We have only just bought the racquet as it is for a summer camp next week. It seems about the right size when my son, who is 9yrs, holds it. It is nice and light and he likes the look of it. Hopefully it will perform well too. It seems good value for a beginner racquet. Hope that helps :)
