Abstract

In a device for damping the vibrations of a ball racket (1) and, in particular, a tennis racket, squash racket or racket-ball racket, a damper weight is mounted on or in the grip-side end of the ball racket so as to be able to elastically excurse from the axis of tree handle grip, its weight being selected between 0.6 to 3.5 % of the weight of the strung racket (1) and the elastic mounting being designed or dimensioned with a view to an at least monoaxial excursion at an eigenfrequency of between 100 and 300 Hz.
