Abstract: The present invention relates to a game racquet with employs a hitting area composed of a longitudinal and a lateral string. Specifically, the present invention is directed to such a racquet with a frame that allows for centrally disposed longitudinal string segments of an extended length. These centrally disposed longitudinal segments extend through enlarged apertures within a primary yoke, or throat bridge, and are anchored through a secondary yoke, or throat bridge. Thus, the game racquet of the present invention includes a plurality of longitudinal segments with the center most segments having a length greater than that of the adjacent lengths. Such a construction gives the string bed increased resiliency without increasing the string bed area.
