Wooden tennis rackets play slower which reduces tennis injury... Harder to play with though!

I used to resell vintage and couldn't resist trying out some classic rackets. It's fun, and you can find one at almost any thrift shop.

haha interesting, I never considered that. haven’t used a wooden racket even once, the small sweet spot must be very difficult.
