The embodiments herein generally relate to a tennis racket and more particularly, a weighted tennis racket.
Tennis is a sport played by almost all the age groups. A racket and a ball are used by a player to play the sport. Effectiveness of the game depends upon the skills of the player and quality of the racket. Better the quality of the racket, more would be the effectiveness of a shot. Conventional rackets are ineffective while hitting the ball due to less weight.
Accordingly, there remains a need for an efficient and a weighted tennis racket to improve the efficiency of a shot.
In view of the foregoing, an embodiment herein provides a racket with a weight that includes: (i) an upper portion, (ii) a handle, and (iii) a butt. The upper portion includes a mesh of wires. The handle secures the weight. The butt couples to the handle at bottom portion of the handle.
In one embodiment, the racket is a tennis racket and the handle of the racket includes a hollow space that incorporates the weight. In another embodiment, the weight is removable and weighs from 1 lbs to 6 lbs. In another embodiment, the butt couples to the handle using threads and incorporates a spring to secure the weight.
In yet another aspect, a tennis racket with a removable weight is provided. The tennis racket includes: (i) an upper portion, (ii) a handle, and (iii) a butt. The upper portion includes a mesh of wires. The handle secures the removable weight in a hollow space. The butt couples to the handle at bottom portion of the handle using threads.
In one embodiment, the weight weighs from 1 lbs to 6 lbs. In another embodiment, the butt couples a spring to secure the weight.
