hi all, just beginning to get serious with squash and got a few rackets in hand can only choose one but not allowed for test. Can somebody guide me about which to get in the following ( assume all weighted at 150g):

(1) Dunlop Hot Melt C-Max (yellow)
(2) Dunlop Black Max Titanium (black, silver and yellow)
(3) Dunlop Custom Tour (with 3 grips and titanium color)
(4) Prince Triple Threat Scream (yellow)

Thanks in advance for your input guys!

Hi manabu - I would say any of the above models would suit, depending on how much you want to spend. Also inexperienced players tend to hit the floor and walls and it is easy to crack the frame so maybe just go for an average weight, and average price for starters. "A squash racket is like toothbrush, personal" were the words of Hasham Khan many years ago. Why is it personal? If your technique is not good a light racket may give the feeling of loss of power. If you are a tall, strong/solid person, a few grams heavier would not hurt; you will probably need a bigger grip and this will change the balance too. Finally, if you strike the ball in the middle of the racket it will feel good no matter what. Good luck.
