Phillipino Davis Cup is meeting tomorrow night at NTC but I cannot make it.

Next weekend for sure.

Pork block sandwiches will be served.

I chose bourbon and Miller Lite this weekend, but it could easily have been scotch. Might still be depending on what Sat and Sun bring.

Are you guys saying that Basalt frames break?

I love both my 2011 6.1 95 BLX and my 2012 6.1 95 BLX Amplifeel, I have 3-4 of each and never a problem. I string with natural gut mainly and hit about 12 hours/week, flat and hard (for the club level).

Cheers!

Head Innegra (IF Speed MP 310) would be my second choice, although it's lighter...Forget Dunlop Aerogel and the likes. Just, mho.

^This is Jolly's attempt to drive Amer Sports' (mother company of wilson) stock down and buy cheap.

The basalt crystals are strong like bull.

I have experienced the power of Basalt first hand. There is nothing quite like it. Especially if you need extra feel. It's all in the Crystals.

If Jolly harnessed the power of Basalt and forsook the wicked ways of Kevlar Krystals the planets of the Solar Federation would align and control would resume.

On today's weapons testing checklist are.

Prototype Scarlett strung at 40lb BBO/ALUR. Tom Solo said that the Millenium Stringer had never been set at such a low tension, not even when he made the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs.

J90 V. BLXPS strung with 4G at 48lbs. Tom Solo said the gauge readings for the 4G were odd, and that it reminded him very much of Head Sonic Pro when he strung it.

May the force be with me.

The smell of whiskey and shame has been washed from my body, my hair is greased, and my cricket sweater has been donned.

Caffeine courses through my veins, and I am ready for battle.

I'm fixing to compose the 4G review that everyone is afraid to write.

Just looked at my last unbroken blxps with the 4G in it, and it isn't quite round anymore.

Jolly was involved in an epic battle tonight at Ashe I understand from my sources.

Can anyone deny or confirm?

Has anyone seen Jolly since the last 'incident'?

I need the truth. Dammit.
