Best Tennis Racquets for Power

With great power...comes great responsibility.

We have all heard the famous quote from Spiderman, but when it comes to tennis racquets, sometimes we simply want more POWER! Today's modern tennis style requires both blistering power and pinpoint accuracy. While we can't help you get more consistent, we can definitely put a racquet in your hands that will boost your power output.

Power racquets typically sport slightly thicker beams for a crisp response at contact. Most of the models in this group have mid-plus head sizes (95-105 sq in) and a median weight of around 10.6 ounces (unstrung). Without further ado, here are our picks for the best five tennis racquets for power.

Power With Added Comfort

Head Boom MP

The Head Boom was introduced last year as a brand-new line from HEAD. This model features a unique head shape along with a morph beam design to blend a more classical shaft design with a modern head construction. The Boom utilizes an Auxetic construction in the bridge of the racquet, which actively responds to provide an ideal impact feel and finely-tuned feedback. The racquet's Tiffany blue cosmetic is striking, and the 100 square inch head seems to play larger and more forgiving. While some power racquets compromise on feel, the Boom MP excels at both.
