I would go to a tennis shop that is part of a larger tennis facility. I would then have someone fit you for a racket, as far as grip size goes, and then see if someone will take a look at your swing. Your swing length and speed has a lot to do with what racket you should purchase. If you are using a racket that is strung poorly or is too heavy this could also account for your arm issues. I would spend the time and money to get the right fit on your racket since you are playing more than you use to. Then with experience you can make a different choice as you improve.well, whatever level you play most likely has regulations to the size allowed, honestly, get any raquet that gives you a good feel, then that's most-likely the one for you.

Check this link out for grip size: http://www.tennisracquets.com/tips/grips...As far as the type of racquet, you will want to visit a facility like PGA Tour Superstore. They have an indoor court and many racquets you can hit with using their ball machine for free. The additional things to consider, since you are a beginner, is that you want a "Control" type racquet. You want to build on placement and how you stroke the ball. A control racquet helps in allowing you to hit the ball in the direction you desire. Later, when you have great control on your strokes and desire more power, you can move to a "Power" racquet. With a "Control" racquet, the tighter the string tension the more control. The looser the string tension the more power. This feature will allow you to grow with your racquet as your skill level grows.

The racket's grip size depends on the size of your hand as well as the.way you grip the racket handle. (I use a 4-3/8 grip size--which is larger than 4-1/4; smaller than 4-1/2, and the largest is 4-5/8.). Baseline players and serve-and-volley players have their own grip preferences w/ baseliners usually opting alightly larger grips.Some of the popular & common grips are Eastern grip, Western grip, & Continental grip -- some web sites have photos of these grips. Regarding rackets, there are different sizes & weights--you'll just have to find the right one for you. Ask your friend if you could try his/her racket (but don't scratch it!) or try a demo from a tennis store for a fee Your wrist & elbow will take a while to get used to it (UNLESS you're hitting the ball wrong! It's important that you learn EARLY the proper way of hitting the ball!) Learn the principles & basics of the game e.g. early preparation (early backswing & position) before hitting the ball; spin: top spin (best), under spin, flat; learn where the racket should contact w/ the ball on both forehand & backhand, then follow-thru, finish naturally, & then back to ready position. Of course, you also need to learn the court rules & then practice, practice, practice.More Questions & Answers...
