Hi Alois/Jeff

What is ply in a racquet. What is its importance. In the ping skills touch I've seen that it is a 5 ply wood what does it mean

Hi Bhavesh,

It just means there are 5 layers of wood stuck together.

Tone is in Your Fingers

There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!

Usually they say that the more plies the faster the racket, if it is all made of the same type of wood.
