Is it worth restringing an old racquet? It's probably 30yo now. I have a cheaper one that's only 20yo that I should probably try for difference, but I keep forgetting.
This seems to put the cost after posting etc at £30 http://advancesquash.co.uk/racket-restringing.php
My reason for asking is that I play at a drop in, and while I acknowledge I'm very rusty and others are better, it seems like I'm having to hit a lot harder. This could be technique, but I don't feel like I used to have this problem. Although I'm now older and less fit.
Buying a new racquet when I have ones and aren't that great seems wastful.
Also does anyone have any recommendations for improving strength in my forearm over the week? This one is definitely age related as I never used to have this problem.
