Specifications of 167 Racquets 2002
The U.S. Racquet Stringers Association
(USRSA) has compiled this database of racquet specifications for models that are currently
being shipped by their manufacturers. For the specs of discontinued models, click here. When plugged into the racquet evaluation
formulas, these specs, together with the constants supplied by the five benchmark
conditions, resulted in values under the evaluation criteria, which values were then
sorted and the racquets ranked accordingly. See Introduction
to Racquet Science | Formulas for Racquet Evaluation | Benchmark Conditions.
