Different sounds on contact with the ball around outside

Equipment

Preston Hill Asked 9 years ago

I have noticed that when i hit the ball around the outside of my racket it has a slightly fainter sound then on the inside.

Is this normal?

Hi Preston,

The wood has what they call a “sweet spot” which is in the middle of the racket. Around the outside the wood isn’t as stable so it will make a sightly different sound and feel different as well.

About this sweet spot... is there an advantage to hitting the ball there?

Alois Rosario from PingSkills Posted 9 years ago

It feels better when you hit it in that spot and the ball will come off a bit faster.
