@bobleenov1963 did you play in their adult program? How was it - can you describe your experience? I'd be traveling alone as a NTRP 5.0 (UTR 10). Some matchmaking would be great. I suppose I could just participate in their training program and probably get matched with some good players.

Do you play there? I just googled the place and it is MASSIVE compared to anything in my area. I see they have programs for adults, which could be up my alley.

I live in New England which means winter weather for the next 5-6 months. I work from home full-time, so I can live anywhere. Anyone know a good place (maybe a large club?) where I could live cheaply and play outdoors daily? Thinking about taking a 1-month trip just to escape the nasty winter here.

@Rabbit Thanks for the reply. My only concern is that my racket recommends a tension between 50-59 lbs. Based on your suspicion with my DW + fly clamps (which I kind of suspect is right), I suppose that I may have been stringing at a "true" tension of 46 lbs all along, even though I thought it...

My bad, yes, I meant the X-6. I've updated the OP. Are you referring to something like this calibrator device? No & no. Yes, with rubbing alcohol + paper towel maybe once per ~10 rackets. The DW would always take a bit more time to get the weight level, whereas the ELS is pretty much...

Machines - Gamma X-6FC X-6 Stringing Machine (Drop Weight) - Gamma Progression II ELS Stringing Machine (ELS) Background Used my drop weight for 2 years stringing at 56lbs. Upgraded to the ELS and strung my first racket @ 56 lbs and it felt WAY too tight. Strung the next at 51... still too...

Hello, I'm the black shirt guy in the video (it's navy blue for the record :p). @StringSnapper linked me here from a YT comment in my video. This was an Open Level tournament, but I'd consider both of us high end 4.5 or low end 5.0. My UTR is 9 his is 10. Second, I've never heard of MTM, I...
