Looks like I will have to get to some other courts to check out the competition.
does this also encompass daytona?
not many twers over this way. i will come down and with hit you, when i can. btw i'm onkly a 3.5.
i have played against kal-el34 at the sheraton on vista parkway, and got my ass handed to me.
Great to see a new chapter open for business.
Best of luck to my northern brothers/sisters in Florida!!

I deem that the Greater Area Orlando includes Daytona.
My tennis time is limited these days with a 5 month old, so I'm only willing to play strong 4.5s or 5.0s at the moment. Hopefully that will change down the road.
is that self rated or ntrp?
bump...
can a 4.5+ in east orlando beat me like a drum please? this may be a strange request but I need a wakeup call. I lost today to an amazing player and it was a great feeling. I really needed that.

Power Player,
Are you playing around 4.5 now that you've been back for a little while?
Thats a damn good question. I would say definitley close, but to be hard on myself, I should say I'm a 4.0 still. I can hit from both wings to wherever I want, but I still have some off days. I have hit with a 5.0 player around my age and have had some great battles on long rallies where I won them with clean winners. Basically, the guy always wants to hit with me when we see each other, so I know I'm not wasting his time. I also can win points clean off slice and drop shots, so I am not just banging everytime.
I won't have a great idea on my ranking until I start with the tournaments again. Which is my upcoming goal.

I was playing great about a month ago when I beat the top 5.0 at our club twice in a row, but now my forehand is off again. Way too many framers. I'm probably going to demo some heavier, but still head light rackets in the next few weeks. I need something a little more stable. I'm just hoping it doesn't hurt my 1 handed topspin backhand which I'm hitting very well at the moment. The problem is all of my opponents are smart and have taken note of my forehand problems and are giving me plenty to hit!
I've hit with one person from this thread. never got a response from others, however.i might be up to accommodate. can't guarantee that i'll play amazing...
btw - have u got to hit with any of the other CFL posters?

I have two solid hitting partners but I feel like I need to hit with a variety of players in order to improve at this stage... yesterday was probably the first time I felt completely helpless out on the court, but it was a good sign that I need more experience.
Where are you located?
Interesting...I wonder when this all goes down.
Yeah the weather was brutal. Sounds like more of the same tonight unfortunately.
Yep..WP was good. I got in over 3 hours. One thing I notice is that I hit a lot better 1 on 1. Sometimes we do 1 hitting to 2 if it gets busy. If I am not the 1 guy feeding 2 people my game goes to crap because of no rthymn.
BTW I just moved to UCF area from Down town area and are there any courts close to this area that are open to public? Are we allowed to play in UCF for example?
