Different sounds on contact with the ball around outside
Equipment
Preston Hill Asked 10 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.

Tone is in Your Fingers
There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!

About this sweet spot... is there an advantage to hitting the ball there?
It feels better when you hit it in that spot and the ball will come off a bit faster.
