What is the balance point in a racket?
The balance point is where the racket will be balanced. if you were to put the racket on a rope or a string and see where the racket would be evenly balance and not tilted forward or backwards with strings of the racket this will tell you where the balance point is. The importance is whether the racket is head heavy or headlight or evenly balanced, and this makes a big difference in how you swing at the ball. Head heavy rackets are better for slower swing speeds, while head light rackets are for fast swing speeds, and even balanced are for all around style of play. Headlight rackets favor serve and volley or attacking net players, head heavy rackets favor the baseline backcourt player.
