thanks for the hit, DVI and Sap! Can barely move...
i'm not sure how to read your post..
should i just agree that i can barely move?? it's due to the loafer, sneaker combo.. i swears it
I think I just sold my PDRs!!!!! WOOOTT!!!!
3rd MGPP here I come!
Good job JRs! Congrats are in order...
mr.downs, did u get a vcore demo yet?
sap played a fair amount of tennis
dats played way too much tennis
auzzie played isner at wimbledon amount of tennis
(i miss clay courts.. knees ache from all that starting and stopping on hard courts. oof)
i dunno if any TT users will buy my 9.9/10 yonex mids. why did i get 5/8 grip size. dangdangdiddlydang!
mr.downs, did u get a vcore demo yet?
We'll celebrate when the money comes in.
thats impressive. sampras vs agassi live on espn2 now...and sampras is using a dunlop aerogel 200 tour. my racquet. going to get 20 more.
uh oh striker is getting the auzzie/downs chris/dats disease!
post pics or it didn't happen...
JRS, you really gotta tell me what the secret is to returning S.W.'s serve...
10 bucks each. Final offer. :shock:
they are available from other outlets, but the waiting line is 8 deep already. bah!
xis, is that $10 each? if TW keeps lowering their prices on the old yonex's i might have to take it!
uh oh striker is getting the auzzie/downs chris/dats disease!
You mean the 2-3 times I got it back all match?
I don't know. Half the time I try to time my split step, move in, sort of go on instinct of where I think it's going, and get a racket on it before it gets above my shoulders. Seems like he likes to hit wide a lot of the time... at least against me.
Sometimes I "think" I can see he's going wide by body position and the position of his racket face. But he still hits a ton of aces and service winners.
If I get it back, sometimes it's just a good old solid shank. LOL!
Still, felt pretty good tonight. Going out 4-6, 3-6 against him is not easy. Felt I served well and had some good solid holds. Hell, maybe I'll get a 4.0 singles win this year!
Looks like you and B had a good match. Pounding solid groundies all match.
BTW- Can you give me B's contact info?
Face it; I'm the only one you know who uses a 5/8" grip - and doesn't complain about it. Speak up when you want to deal.
there is a cure for this...
more racquet!
Yeah that's a great result. He's such a solid player... so many weapons and so much offence.
B and I were exhausting each other royally. I had a point to kind of put the match away, but actually started cramping in both calves going for the backhand. And we only played for an hour and a half!! Other than that it was the type of tennis I love. Long points, lots of running, and tons of effort. I haven't really played that type of grueling tennis alot lately. I miss it.
LOL! It's hard to find a player that can hang with you as far as movement and consistency. Sounds like I'll be facing Bizarro Auzzie in about a week and a half.
BTW- Racquets shipped, but it was a real learning experience.......
I tried the old, tape two USPS Priority boved together thing, but the postal guy put a stop to that.
Went to the UPS store to get a box and it was a good size, but way too deep. Cost a ton to ship and the sticks would be ratteling around. I could cut it down at home, but problem was I promised to ship it today, so I paid to have it cut down and my sticks wrapped real nice by UPS.
I promised the buyer that I would ship it USPS priority, so I went back to the post office. Postage was $36 with the box cut down to size. Shipping/packing cost really took a big bite out of the sale.
Don't know how you guys do it with that the racquet shipping and trading????
!!!!! Nuts !!!!! Costs 1/4 that to ship 99% of the time even for 2 frames using the 2 box taped together job. I have a bunch of those boxes at my house...free from the USPS. Never had a problem with them, not sure why your guy gave you hell for that???
JRS, i think that's auz's way of saying that you are horrible and he didn't need to come to net.
i'm surprised auz didn't quit tennis after he was destroyed by sap and dats over the weekend. sap's perfectly timed (never late on the swing.. amazing!) inside-out backhand blasts combined with dats' skillful topspin lobs. such a thing of beauty!
i guess our high caliber of tennis inspired him to play everyday to improve.
i am glad we could help him realize what level he needs to get to if he is really gonna hang with the big boys.
wow JRS that sucks about the post office. i just shipped out my stick today and it also cost twice as much as last time (if that makes you feel better)
:-?JRS, i think that's auz's way of saying that you are horrible and he didn't need to come to net.
def not what was said or meant...Thanks for the translation Sappy.....

All you racquet junkies - besides TW, where are some other places you look for used sticks?
I'll be on the hunt for a used Head Presitge Pro MG (4 5/8 ) soon.
Saw one on e-b-a-y the other day, but not sure if I'm going to spring for it.
FWIW - seems like these sticks move pretty fast here on TW.
:-?

TW FS/FT is the best and maybe try posting a Wanted Post. Sometimes people come out of the woodwork with frames for you.
sap, o fellow tennis player extraordinaire... either i'm getting old or that video is totally inappropriate! kind of like when ke$ha is nominated by nickalodeon kids choice awards when all her songs are about getting banged by jukebox after chugging a bottle of jack. glad i don't have kids!
auz? moonball? well, it is time for another acta season.. so gotta practice!
i somehow herniated a disc and have back spasms just from sitting too long on the couch last night. oooooo getting old suXXxXX
hopefully will get Kblade, RDiS100MP, RDiS200, and igSpeed18 next tuesday for demo week! anybody got vcore yet? hint hint? dunno why TW can't string up a frame and call it a demo. cheapskat8z
