    Pure Strike = Disappointing!

    I see. If you do manage to make some nice adjustments to it then let us know :) Any particular Prince frames you like? I also started playing tennis with a Prince racquet and now I'm using the Speedport Black. It's been treating me okay but I've been curious about all the new racquet releases.

    Pure Strike = Disappointing!

    Was this testing done with a stock frame? I don't think I'll be able to play with it in stock since it's not really within my spce range. Looks like a good racquet to tinker with though. I was also really looking forward to trying out this racquet too but I'm a little unsure now from all of...

    Head YOUTEK IG Extreme Pro 2.0 - WOW.

    Hey Bmr. Can you compare the Prince SP Black to the Extreme Pro 2.0? I currently use the 03 Black as my main stick and I see that you use it as well. My stringer is currently selling the Extreme Pro for $100 so I was thinking about picking it up. If anyone else has used both racquets then feel...

    what is the twistweight of the max 200g

    That may be kind of hard to answer since someone probably hasn't calculated the twistweight for it yet. Here's a list of all the twistweights that have been calculated from TW. http://twu.tennis-warehouse.com/cgi-bin/twistweight.cgi And what did you mean by hitting weight?

    Wristbands that don't irritate your face

    Thanks for the feedback guys. I'll add the Premiers and the Addidas one to my list. I've also tried wearing a hat and headband before but it doesn't feel comfortable to me. Guess I'll give it a try again sometime. If there any other good ones, please let me know! From what I've seen, the...

    Wristbands that don't irritate your face

    Hey guys. I'm looking for some good wristbands that don't scratch your face when you wipe your sweat off. I've used the Gamma ones before and they're doing okay but I just wanted to see what else is out there. Does anyone know of any other good, soft wristbands that isn't that rough on the...

    What's up with Monfils's Shoelaces?

    I noticed that too. I don't know if he was actually tying his shoelaces or just fidgeting with them. It's kinda like how some guys fix their strings between points but instead Monfils fixes his laces. I only watched the highlights thought so I'm not sure.

    3.0 rallying with a +40 4.0 (Video)

    Forget the discussion about who's 3.0 or 4.0. I think you look like you're in your mid 20s rather than being 37.

    I can't play good tennis in the morning.

    I've never really played in the morning but I think it wouldn't be too bad. You probably just need to warm your body up and eat a good amount of food. In my case, I play around 5-8 in the afternoon. I prefer playing at around 3 but it gets wayyy too hot.

    Let us know how it goes. Whatever racquet you feel more confident with and allows you to swing more freely is the one you should go with.

    Two racquets, how to choose?

    When you're in that zone where you're searching for new racquets and strings while testing out lead and things like that, it's really hard to settle for one lol. We're all after our perfect racquet and string set-up but it can become an obsession and it'll distract you from your game. I'd...

    Hybrid vs Full Bed

    Full bed all the way. Hybrid means I'll use 2 strings, meaning I'll be drawn back into testing more new strings again...and again...and AGAIN.

    Best string setup for SV ProStaff Six.One 90?

    I would say go full gut. Not sure on string tension since it'd kind of personal preference and I don't know what you usually string at.

    How to add weight into handle?

    I'd just use lead tape for now. There's no need to use silicone if you're not 100% comfortable with the weight you're adding. Stick cotton balls into handle, roll up the lead tape into 1/2 inch rectangles, wrap the lead tape into a cotton ball, then stick it in the handle.

    Extended length racquet = PAIN

    Did you add lead to the head? I did that and felt pain for a short while. After removing the lead, the racquet plays normally.

    Best Stringing Machine for beginner?

    Not sure if any stringing machine will come with one although some do include them. You'll probably have to look up the stringing machine and see if other buyers have received any sample strings.

    should i cut it or what!?

    From the way you describe it, it doesn't sound like your strings are the problem. Maybe you just have trouble playing tiebreakers and you get nervous when the game comes down to one.

    Volkl Cyclone 16g hurting my arm. Any advice?

    Hey guys. I'm currently using Volkl Cyclone 16g strung at 56lbs in a O3 Speedport Black(stiffness rating of 70). After playing with it for a while, it's started to hurt my arm. This is the first time a poly has ever given me arm problems. I played with a racquet with a 62 stiffness rating using...
