Make sure it is focal shockwave which is the only kind that works

Update: despite 7.5 t2 being same European size as 7.0 torneo 1st generation the feel longer when playing. Not wider. Will use for practice only. Disappointed in the size difference. I appear to be between sizes

Just bought Torneo 2 7.5, European 40. Previous version I wore 7.0, European 40. Current 7.0 is a 39. The 7.0/39 were too small, 7.5 seem good. Playing with them soon. Tried 7.0 wide..a bit short, nice width, did not keep them.

In Europe head tour comes in one version.

Playing a tournament later this year which uses Head Tour balls. Not sure if they are more similar to Penn Tour regular duty or Penn Tour X duty. European balls are usually heavier. The tournament is on red clay.

Anyone know whether the Penn tour balls in USA are same as Head Tour? And whether the Penn Extra Duty or Regular duty are more similar to Head Tour?

I have tried polys over the years, sub 40#, 19 gage, cross with multi or gut, my arm cannot handle it. Love the spin, but not worth it. Thicker multi gauges do last longer. As for spin, I hit plenty.

I have a spin shot ball machine with an external battery. I use it at my club which has electricity so didn’t need an internal battery. Saves 8 pounds of weight. No need to charge battery or worry about it running out. I got the version you can program with your phone. It’s versatile, fits in a...

Menlo Circus Club in Menlo Park has a few but it’s a private club with a waiting list. There used to be a few at Pebble Beach. Otherwise there are private ones, several in the Lodi area for example, but all in back yards.

Diadora blushfields are fairly wide. SCB I wear, in smaller men’s sizes.

Palm Beach Gardens Tennis Center in Palm Beach Gardens FL. 20 perfect clay courts. Public. Also Jimmy Evert Tennis Center, Ft Lauderdale. Naples has a nice public clay facility. Lots of them in Florida. Also many in Europe

No. Ranch Santa Fe Tennis Club is a different club from Rancho Valencia.

Hi. Has anyone played on Caliclay red? How does it compare to green clay or true European red clay?

USTA has already cancelled January Level 1, 2, 3 tournaments...and some of the February tournaments are already gone...USTA not updating yet

I like them. They run large, sized down to a 40 from a 41 or so. A bit high on the ankle which was irritating a bit. Just ordered a clay pair from TWE. I don’t wear out the soles (63, woman, but a 5.0/8.3 UTR player). Really liked the 2017 barricades, hated the 2018 (never bought them)...

Need a USTA membership To play tournaments in the USA you need a USTA membership. You go to usta.com, then tournaments and search for tournaments near you. Create a mytennispage and then maybe tournaments in your area will appear...not sure that's true for Canadians.

senior tournament tennis OK, I am going to address your goal to play tennis all over the world. There are senior tournaments (age 35-85) all over the world sanctioned by the ITF, the same organization that governs Davis and Fed Cup etc. There are levels for the tournaments...anyone can...

I am a 5.5 rated player and have been using the "4" series of Volks for about 11 years, I love them, especially the PB 4 and the original catapult. Anyone out there who has hit with the Super G 4 and the PB 4? I'd love to hear comments. I am a senior highly ranked player.

Here's the fact sheet for the individual event: http://beta.itftennis.com/media/163142/163142.pdf Anyone with an ipin (itftennis.com/ipin) can enter if you are old enough. The team events are in Boca Raton (4 sites, 6 teams) and Palm Beach Gardens (2 sites, 4 teams). The teams have been...

I display national and international medals and gold, silver and bronze balls. But they aren't in the main living area. I discarded most of my other trophies otherwise when I moved a few years ago, after taking off the engraved piece. I worked hard for those USTA balls (age division, not NTRP)...

PS: I play in the 55s but am a LJBTC member so was watching some of the 40 Hard...I usually play it but couldn't this year, thought the video was a great idea.

RE ITF and closed nationals: The nationals are only closed to Non-USTA members...basically anyone, foreign or not can play but they have to buy a USTA membership (about $45 I think...not sure, I'm a lifetime member). The USTA closed them not because of the IPIN, or not soley because of it, but...

Barcelona I heard matches are played late in the day.mi am thinking of playing the 55s, should be a decent event since itbis a grade 1 You have to have an IPIN to enter.

Any comments on Volkl balls? We used them in Turkey for a tournament...they seemed bigger in diameter than the Dunlop Fort balls (I compared them) and were slow and heavy feeling. The Americans weren't fans of the Volkls (or the slow clay). The Dunlop Fort ball is pretty good. Also, I've played...

Tennis Warehouse: Do you know when the Volkl Powerbridge 4 will be available in the US? It's on the Volkl website and also available now in the UK...I'd like to demo one. Anyone out there who has hit with one?

I just got back from playing in Turkey...senior world team championships (USA won our division, women's 50s, over Australia) and the world Championships. I went 4-1 in doubles in the team event and 3-1 in singles and 1/1 in doubles in the individual world championships...2 bronze medals, lost to...

I played the national 45 hard courts...not my age division but within driving distance. Singles went 5-2 (including a default in the 5/6 playoff), finished 5th; in doubles went 2/2 (beat the #2 seeds/defending champions, but then my partner injured her leg and we had to default the bronze ball...

fishcher mp 105 is really easy on the arm...even easier than a Volkl Cat 4 and that is pretty easy.

ultimate tennis Thank you jgn1013. I looked it up, another league...n/a for 5.5 rated players...too bad, looks like fun.
