WILSON Hyper Hammer 5.3 110 Tennis Racquet

This was my first time placing an order online. I always felt the need to go to a sporting goods store and handle a racquet before buying. However this time worked out great. The racquet came in a very timely matter and I was very comfortable using it. As a matter of fact I used it shortly after getting it in a tournament and I felt I did very well. Thank you for the great service and having just what I needed.

I got this racquet a month ago. Still trying to get some more power from it. It is very light, although it looks bulky. Cant get a good feel of the ball, though, even after taking off the dampener that tennisexpress provided. It was a great deal, though.

I bought this racket a month ago, but the strings needed changing, so I changed them. The racket is a good one, but its not for me. However, dont get me wrong, Its a nice racket, but it doesnt suit my style. Thanks again Tennis Express.

I bought this Hammer as my backup racket, as I had one already. I have started playing again in USTA as a 3.0. I have been moved up to 3.5 using this racket. It is light weigh and fast. I am currently using 60lbs tension. May go up a pound. excellent racket for a club/USTA player.

After playing with the Wilson Hyper Hammer 5.3 I have been able to control the ball location on the court. Even though most racquets have a win-lose equilibrium between power and control the Hyper Hammer allows me to use an equal amount of power and control. My game is directed as being an offensive baseline player, but I can also approach the net with this Hyper Hammer which allows me to use more touch and speed on my approaches.

Love this racquet. I played with the old Hammer 6.2 Skunk for years and years. After some shoulder problems I had to find a light racquet that still had plenty of pop. I demoed this racquet early on and was thrilled with it, but I couldnt believe the price, so I demoed several more in the $150+ range, before finally coming back to the Hyper Hammer and have been happy ever since. I can easily play 6 sets with my weekly group and not have any shoulder problems. Love this Racquet!!

Overall its a great racquet, its light but powerful, the oversized head seems to have enough control over the net too. The only problem I noticed is the string, I like to add a lot of top spin on each shot, but the strings are not tight enough to stay where they are supposed to be. I started to use my fingers to put the strings back in shape after only one week of playing. However, I would still recommend the racquet to new players who try to improve their games, or experienced players who would like a racquet as a back-up.

The tennis racquet was purchased to add to the same racquet that I have been playing with for several years. Was glad to find a new one still available. Price was excellent and delivery was prompt. The feel of this racquet is just right for my game.

I am an older player 76, and finally had to give up using the pro type, smaller head racquets I used to use. This 5.3 at 110 inches does not LOOK too big like too much of a cheater - so I feel better about myself. I strung it at the lowest poundage, with a 17 guage Techni-Fibre string, and I am hitting with satisfactory power, and very little sacrifice in control. In other words, I am as satisfied as the 50 people whose reviews I read - that provoked me to try this racquet.

Ive always used the Hyper Hammer 2.0 and they no longer make it. Aver reading the description of Hyper Hammer 5.3 I thought I would give it a try. I couldnt be happier with this racquet, actually prefer it over the 2.0 now. Already pruchased my second one. It really allows me to place the ball anywhere on the court and allows me to put spin on it which makes up for most of my game.

I have been playing tennis for nearly 28 years. I believe I have been playing with the Wilson 5.3 Hyper Hammer for over half of those years. I started using it as a 3.0 and now a 4.0 I love it just as much. Part of me wants a racquet with newer technology but I keep coming back to the Hyper Hammer. It is light weight and yet even though I am not a power hitter, I am able to have good pace on my strokes. I have read that this is the most popular racquet Wilson has ever made. Try it just one time and youll understand why.

I purchased this racquet recently from Tennis Express. This racquet replaces an older Wilsom hammer and I am very pleased with it. I am an older player turned high school coach and this racquet fits my needs perfectly.

Excellent racket for me. Light but powerful. Recommended to friends.

It was recommended by a friend and it is one of the best racquet I have ever tried. Very light yet powerful. I would recommended to any average to serious player.

This is my second Wison hyper hammer 5.3 I purchased, as I liked my first one so much. Great blend of lightness and power, my favorite racquet, so far. I also bought one for my high school daughter. The only problem, which I noted on both mine and my daughters racquets, was an undesirable vibration when hitting off-center shots, even with the vibration damper in place. This problem was probably due to the factory strings, as it went away when I got both racquets restrung.

The racquet performed as outlined in the product review. I have been very pleased with the performance of the racquet, so far. I am particularly pleased with the weight and manuverability.

I am a 60 year old tennis player and have used Wilson Hammer 6.2 110 and Hammer H6 oversize both of which suits my style of play which is from the baseline. The H6 is a control oriented type of racquet when strung with the right stringNXT and appropriate tension. I thought this racquet would be the one I will be playing with while I am still able to play tennis until I tried my friends Hyper Hammer 5.3 oversize. I found out that this racquet has the same characteristic like the Hammer H6 but is more powerful and very light. This racquet added some power to my service as well as to my ground stroke specially my two handed backhand. Volleys at the net are crisp and precise with little effort to expend. I would highly recommend this racquet to players suffering from tennis elbow and arthritis on the wrist like I do. The weight of this racquet will tremendously help your game because of its maneuverability due to its lightness. I wish Wilson would manufacture a replacement for this.

I dont have so much to say...just that i use the same racquet model Hammer 5.3 for 11 years...yes for 11 years and I love it!!!! I like the size and I think I play good because my racquet helps me.

This racquet is great! It is super light and allows for a strong swing. I have always been a fan of Hammer racquets. This model is much lighter than past Hammer models and still provides the power serve. Overall, I am very happy with this purchase and very impressed with my overall experience with Tennis Express.

Nice raquet, very pleased with it! Hits well!
