  hitters.

• Squash racquets can weigh between 90 to 190 gm.
  Lighter ones are suitable for ease of
  manoeuvrability. But if you are looking to hit
  hard, you need to choose a heavier racquet
  around 140 to 155 gm.

  sizeable power for your shots.  Very often, the
  weight of a racquet is calculated before it is
  strung. So you can expect your racquet to weigh a
