I didnt mean Alex Bolt. I meant rackets from Bolt sports with Brett as designer. Bolt rackets have a string suspension system in it similar to Volkl Catapult system. I guess these rackets are good for tennis elbow. John

I have severe tennis elbow. Has anyone tried the Bolt rackets in 98 and 100? John

The best shoe might be the one you never tried on... I tried a ton of shoes over the last year. I tried a friends Vapor 9.5 but they made my feet sweaty. I was trying out a bunch of shoes at a store and inadvertently tried on a New Balance 786. Viola! The best shoe of all time!!! 2-3 mm lower...

Call me if you want to hit. I'm about 4.0, but will play with almost anyone from 2.0-5.0. Hit me up!!! John 626-710-0973

New shoe 1-Babolat ProPulse 2-performance fit 2-Prince QT Scream Low-very comfortable 3-Barricade 6 4-Head Speed Pro I like the PP2s, awesome locked down feel that is comfortable. Like a ballet shoe with straps. Awesome. John

Mania Hey, don't knock corsets til you try one...okay? Ha ha!!! John

Winners/Errors I know exactly what you mean. I have a Flexpoint Prestige Mid and it is great for those players up to 4.25, but those strong 4.5 players are hitting real hard and then all I am doing is playing defense. You need something to take their time away and knock them back from their...

Pog Os Mine says "Straight Shaft" on it. John

I was playing with this racket 7 years ago when I won this big tournament. Then....I strayed to other rackets. 6.0 85, Flexpoint Prestige Mid, Babolat PDR GT+, Prince Graphite EXO 100 etc. But I keep coming back to the POG OS. Why? It has the perfect blend between power, control, and spin...

PP2 Rules!!!!! Oh yeah...I forgot to mention that the footbelt technology really does work. And the shoe bend just in the right place. John

I've been hanging with my comfort shoes for a long, long time (Head Games Low, Wilson Prostaff Leather, and Prince QT Scream Low), but these Babolat ProPulse 2s are like a driving a Ferrari!!! By the way, I have the blue and grey 2009 model. These shoes are the most exotic tennis shoe on the...

I have a Flexpoint Prestige Mid. It helps me to hit low, flat shots that are fast. The shot shoots the air quickly. I demoed the YouTek Prestige MidPlus and YT Prestige Pro, same thing, but with more power. Exactly what is the secret formula that makes the Prestige rackets so special. The...

This is the original version back when the Babolat rackets where black. Racket is mostly black with yellow and red accents. Scrapes on on head, but still plays well. I've got some pics around here somewhere. I have good references under Billy Idol or BillyIdol. John 626-710-0973...

I orderer a pair of QT Scream Lows from TW about 9 months ago, they were awesomely great. They had very soft synthetic leather that formed to your feet. Well....in the mean time, TW does not carry these shoes anymore. So....I order from ...Rhymes with RidWestSmorts, and got them. I tried...

I want to set up a local tennis ladder where each player can see the ladder online, so I don't have to constantly be emailing/calling people about the tennis ladder list. I am just going to go with simple rules like if you beat a higher ranked opponent, you go one place above the person you...

Palm Springs Tennis Bump I am packing my rackets anyway...so if you want to hit...give me a call. John 626-710-0973 Jwynissi@aol.com

I'm going to a seminar in Rancho Mirage from April 12-17. If you are around the Palm Springs/Rancho Mirage area, let's hit!!! I'm 4.5, but will hit with almost anyone. Hit me up!!! Call me early so I will know whether or not to pack my rackets. John 626-710-0973 Jwynissi@aol.com

I'm converting from 1 hand bh to 2 hbh...and this part is weird for me. Let's say that I'm standing 1 foot to the right of center hash mark, I need to run the the left singles line for a ball with my new 2 hbh. 1-Do I run with 2 hands on racket and then hit the ball, or do I run with 1...

New Prince Shoes I tried the Optima...the fit was freaky...didn't like it....sent it back to TW. My favorite shoe is the QT Scream Low...extremely comfortable. I doubt that any of these new Prince shoes are better than the QT Scream Low. Another great shoe is the Prince Viper V Low. Try it...

I heard about this from www.tennisplayer.net, but I forgot it. Do you know the 4 different types? What are they? John

I was watching the 4th or 5th set and the commentators commented on how deadly Almagro's forehand is, and the fact that he is using Luxilon string that is shaped that a lot of the clay court players use. They were amazed by the crazy spin that Almagro is getting with his string. I look at...

Baseline with one handed bh I have been playing with a Head Flexpoint Presige Mid with Alu at 54 in it for 2 years, and I love it. MG Mid was more solid, but not as manuverable. FXP is still very solid, but with fantastic manuverability. My one handed backhand has never been better. I also...

I was watching the Venus Williams-Li Na match and really like her blue Nike outfit. When she wanted a towel, she had a cute way of making the fanning signal with her hands. Nice, nice body with shapely legs. I saw a few other pictures of her elsewhere where she did not look so great, but she...

Steak No, are they streaming these matches after Rafa/DelPo? John

I can't get CBS right now. Watching Rafa vs DelPo right now. Will they stream the other matches on USOpen.org too? John

Shell: I love Albuquerque!!!!!! I love Albuquerque!!! Real pretty out there!! I went to school at Univ. of New Mexico, and my brother lives on Wyoming Blvd in Albuquerque. I envy you, it is beautiful out there!!! You are bringing back memories of my high altitude tennis there!! John

I tried really hard to like the KSwiss Defier RS, but the outsole/tread was just too stiff for me. It was like ski boots. I like shoes more like slippers (Head Games Low, Wilson Tour Spin) which are flexible in the outsole/tread especially around the ball of the foot. It seems that the...

Looks like Greul is sponsored by Prince. So....which Prince shoes is he using? They look comfortable. John

Goober No...forget mail order brides....seems very risky, and the women are probably pretty shifty. Again, I have never done mail order bride, but now...it doesn't look good. You have to watch out for green card sharks PLUS gold digging, that is too much. I'll just meet women here. I...

Goober Thanks for the support! That is what I thought. These are more like "foreign women" situations. No money changed hands. I mean I can talk more to the Chinese guy that married the Chinese woman from China, but they seem real happy to me. She walks her Irish Setter around the tennis...
