Looking for tennis gear suggestions (lemmy.world)

Hello! I'm a beginner tennis player looking for a racket and some shoes. I technically played growing but it's been about a decade since I stopped. I used to use Adidas Barricade (I think) and a Wilson Hammer. I liked the heavy head. But it's been a very long time, and everything has changed since I last played. Just wondering what's a good racket for beginners or intermediate.

For shoes, I'm considering On Roger Pro since they feel better on my wide feet than the current Adidas Barricade, but open to suggestions as well.

That's fair! And honestly, since it's been so long since I've even picked up a racquet, I wouldn't even know how I hit. It seems that even though the tennis courts don't have a shop, they have racquets for hire so I might start with that for a few sessions and see how I go. Thank you again!
