FAQs
Is this racket suitable for a total beginner?
Yes, the Wilson Nemesis is specifically designed to be accessible for beginners due to its large head size and forgiving nature.
What is the recommended string tension?
While it varies by personal preference, most players find success with this frame using a mid-range tension between 50-55 lbs.
Can I add lead tape to change the weight?
Yes, you can add weight to the frame, but ensure it is balanced correctly to avoid negatively impacting the racket's natural swing weight.
How often should I restring the racket?
A general rule of thumb is to restring as many times per year as you play per week, or whenever you notice a significant loss in tension.
Does the racket come pre-strung?
Please check your specific retailer listing; typically, recreational rackets like the Nemesis are sold factory-strung.
Troubleshooting
Excessive vibration during impact
Consider installing a vibration dampener at the bottom of the string bed to absorb shock.
String movement during play
Ensure your stringer uses a high-quality string and verify that the tension is within the racket's recommended range.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your Wilson Nemesis in peak condition, store the racket in a climate-controlled environment away from extreme heat or direct sunlight, as excessive heat can warp the frame and degrade grip materials. We recommend using a standard synthetic gut or multifilament string at a mid-range tension to maintain the frame's intended comfort levels. Check the grip tape periodically; if it becomes slick or loses its tack, replace it immediately to ensure a secure hold during matches.
