    I have never owned the Tennis Racquet before.

    Can someone help me on how to choose the right size grip.

    Also, does it come with or without strings ?

    • +9

      It comes with no strings attached.

      • +1

        What's the ball park cost of attaching the strings and how hard it would be

        • +2

          Most shops will charge $30-50 for a set of new strings. It's not like stringing a guitar, unless you're willing to drop hundreds if not thousands on a stringing machine, you ain't doing it yourself.

        • +2

          Strings are done by a tennis shop, who have the machine to do it, labour for strings is about $25 average, and the rest of the price goes to the string itself, which you can get as cheap as $5, if you are only just a beginner

          Grip size is preference, but you always add overgrips on the handle to make it thicker if needed

          I just took a glance, but i don't see where it says it doesn't come with strings - usually at least there will be factory / stock strings that are attached - if you never played tennis, then don't waste your money on new strings

        Hey guys,

        FYI it comes with strings :)

        Jim Kidd Sports

  • Thanks bought one

  • +1

    Thanks op, got one

    It appears it comes with strings as per description but could be wrong:

    With a 16x20 string pattern and an almost even balance, players have access to controllable power and should find good stability from all areas of the court.

    • +1

      Description says "racquet is pre-strung" right at the bottom

  • +1

    Rackets usually come with stock strings which are awful and will usually need to be re-strung within a few months.

  • great deal.

  • +7

    My mind is telling me yes, but my shoulder, my shoulder is telling me nooooo.

  • How is this racquet comparing to Babolat Pure Areo?

    • If you are asking this question then you should buy this racket.

    • My coach says don't use the Areo unless you have a hitting arm like Nadal.

  • Missed it.

    • Hey @mikstylo,

      Just double checked and we have more stock available!

      Jim Kidd Sports

      • Thanks Rep

        Ordered 2

      • Is this instore too?

        • It depends if that store picked them when picking stock last week.
          If you chose to click and collect we can organize it to go into the store but that can take up to a week.
          Alternatively you can call up the store, we don't have a live inventory system so we wouldn't be able to tell you from my department.

          Thank you,
          Jim Kidd Sports

      • Thanks, Rep. Ordered one.

  • +1

    This is a smoking deal. On clearance at rebel for 170 https://www.rebelsport.com.au/p/wilson-blx-volt-tennis-racqu…

  • I've been meaning to start up tennis again and using my only racquet being a 20 year old juniors racquet as an excuse. This seems like a sign. Bort one.

    • +6

      Username checks out.

  • Good deal.
    Not sure how good the racquet is though.
    Not a main stream model.
    But looks quite decent to me with the frame size and weight.

    If its full blx graphite, should last you 10 years

  • What's wrong with it?

    • The price is too good to be true, but it's true

      • there's got to be a catch somewhere. old model perhaps?

        • Maybe the rep can send mine Express and I can tell u if it is good or not.

  • Any chance your getting more 1/4 in stock? Was waiting for the misses to tell me her grip size and now its unavailable

    • Next time, always buy smallest available and bulk up with overgrips

    • +2

      Hi @Noggin,

      Just confirming we are getting more in, so I've adjusted stock online and you should be able to get them now!

  • Received my racket this morning and it looks like someone has used it as a hammer. It is broken beyond repair :(

    No damage to the box it was sent in which is odd??

    • Cool….got a photo?

      • Yeh I have sent through to them and they are sorting it out.

        Are you affiliated with them in any way to require a photo or did you just want to see it?

        • Just want to see….out of curiosity on why it arrives in such a bad shape when box is undamaged.

          Maybe someone had a bad day at work doing packaging?

          Plus it gives me an heads up on what I might expect as I do order from them

          • @lovepub: I have already received tracking for another one which has been posted so its an honest mistake on their part and rectified within a few hours so kudos to them. But here is the damaged racquet with the undamaged box underneath it.

            • @bradnel: Wow….prob the heat got to it during transit.

    • Hi bradnel,

      We have heard from the Wilson rep that there is a chance that the pressure of the plane plus the tightness of the strings strung could be a factor of the issue.
      Would you be able to email through this issue to [email protected] and also include your order number and a couple of shots in different angles of the racquet? This way we can identify the proper perpetrator and they should be able to sort something out for you!

      Kind Regards,
      Jim Kidd Sports

      • Hey mate I did this yesterday pretty sure it’s already been sorted I have a new tracking number for a replacement
