What's with all this drinking? You are not 18, and you don't live in Europe.

[Voltron]

Errrr...uhhhhh......what drinking? *hides beer bottles*.

It's costly no doubt to charter a jet to attend the AO final, but surely there are other things you may wish to do that are within reach.

well i didn't put high hopes in the first place

no i'm not a junior , but am with old racquets and gonna change as soon as possible but the decision is way too hard ..

midplus / oversize
stiff / flexy
16x19 / 18x19
standard 27" / plus
rectangular / oval
narrow beam / wide
forgiving/ more control

ofcourse you're gonna drop your RDS line now
jk i know it's great one ..

[Voltron]

Yeah, what do you want in a racquet? I'm sure I can pick one out for you.

[SoBad]

You should just get a pure storm or a tfight325, they are best racquets for everybody, so you can't go wrong

I have settled for just listening to an album and then going to bed.

You are never too old for me to put you over my knee and give you a spanking young man. Behave.

You can have one beer on Friday, with your meal. But only good beer, none of the Coors/Bud/Michelob crap.

well i've been in this maze for month now and every time i intend to begin a thread about it i decide to wait and read some more , anyway i'm not new to tennis but am returning after about 8 or 9 years of complete tennis absence ..

the rating system is not functional here in egypt but judging by my readings i think i'm maybe a 3.5 player , baseline but like to come to net frequently , would like a frame in the 100-107 range just for it's forgiveness and large sweet spot ( don't need the extra power provided because i have a big swing and am kinda powerful) so my guess was the 100-107 frames but with low power like the radical OS for example ..
i tend to feel that i hit my forehands somewhere in the upper half of the string bed and so was thinking of the extended 27.5'' ones ..

that's about it , if i remember anything more i'll post it right away ..
so , can you help ?

my list include : Dunlop 300G OS / LM heat / Prince shark among others

Drinking from the carton is a social faux pas my friend - although you did say that it was clearly marked. Just make sure Fee doesn't grab your backwash bottle by mistake or, well,... it won't be very pretty. lol.

Good morning folks~!~

For the love of God SoBad, what are ya doin? If you are spending the night, grab a pillow and blanket from the closet in the office and sleep on the couch in there. It is certainly more comfortable I'm sure.

My storms are MINE forevah (for now) sorry!! The hats are gifts from a delusional Kyrgyz friend, can't sell those AT ALL sorry...! Voltron might give you a deal on storms though if 5/8 grip is OK for you... For hat, you need to befriend a delusional Kyrgyz...

Nah, Fee will be fine, it'll just put some hair on her chest. Never mind we're out; who's going to the store next? I call "Not Me".

Actually, in my younger days I perfected The Over The Head Pour Maneuver, so that these lips do not touch the carton.

well i don't think the storm fit me in the first place , the 5/8 are fine really but the problem is am in egypt and the shipping could be a problem ..

Sorry man, working out a deal with Skaggle(I think I got the spelling right) as soon as I get home from vacation.

That would have been the sensible thing to do, wouldn't it have? Not sure why it didn't quite occur to me last night. Must have been all that milk busting my lactose intolerance...

I would actually suggest the RDS/RDX MPs, they play huge, have huge sweetspots, are great on volleys, and hit well in the upper half. BTW the extra inch/half inch only extend the grip.
