Here is a short guide on selecting a discount Babolat tennis racquet based on your needs.

1. Purchase a racquet based on your skill level. Are you a beginner, intermediate or advanced player? You should get to know what level you are at before purchasing any babolat racquet.

As a beginner you will want a racquet which is light weight (8-9.5 ounces), has an oversize head (107-135 square inches), is longer (27-29 inches) and is head heavy.
As an intermediate you will want a racquet being lighter (9.5-11 ounces), midplus (95-102 square inches) heads and have an extended length (27.5- 28 inches).
An advanced player will want a heavier racquet in weight (11.5-13 plus ounces), have a smaller head (85-98 inches), thinner beams and a balanced head.

2. Consider weight and balance. You don't want it to be so heavy that you get sore arms from swinging, but not so light that it can't get enough power. But remember that the lighter the racquet the more power, the heavier the more control. Generally speaking, a heavy racquet is more powerful, stable and transmits less shock than a lighter one, while a lighter racquet is easier for a player to swing and maneuver.

3. Consider head size. If you are really uncoordinated, a head that is over 100 square inches would be ideal. If you are more skilled, get a smaller head. A larger head will provide more power and a larger hitting area and sweet spot than a smaller one.

4. Consider length. As racquet length increases, so does dynamic swing weight. Compared with a standard racquet, a longer one offers more reach on ground strokes and more power; yet is harder to control.

5. Consider tension. More expensive racquets are pre-ordered and custom-strung. Lower tension provides more power and reduces vibration, while higher tension gives better control, 'pop', and more spin. Experiment with both and decide which suits your needs better.

6. Consider grip size. If you have small hands, try a 1/8-3/8 size grip; for bigger hands, try a 1/2 size grip, or a 3/8 grip with an overgrip on it. More and more racquet producers improve handle design to reduce frame shock and vibration.

7. Consider aesthetics. These don't interfere with the performance of your racquet, but allow you to put some personal touches on it. What is your favorite color? Do you want the grip to be flat or with bumps for your fingers?
