    Youtek Prestige Pro vs. BLX Blade

    I am also a 4.0 and I've been using the IG Prestige Pro for about a year and like the feel and stability. Before that was the YTPP. If you're really torn why not get both the BLX and PP? Try hitting with each with same string and setup for several hours. Then sell the one you like less...

    We were robbed!!!

    I would have loved to see another Nadal - Federer final.. great competitors and this match would have meant so much for both. Not that I don't like Djokovic, I think he deserves another slam, but I just don't want him to win this one over Rafa.

    US Open QF: Wawrinka vs Youznhy

    I have no clue so I just randomly picked. Youznhy in 4, but I'm hoping for a 5 hour 5 setter :p

    USO 2010 QF - Robin Soderling [5] vs Roger Federer [2]

    I voted for Soderling in four tight sets playing out of his mind.

    Uso 2010 Qf - Djokovic Vs Monfils

    I'm hoping they go to a 4+hour 5 setter epic match, but realistically Djoker in 4.

    Is Cheating Rampant in USTA Leagues?

    Seriously? Your hitting partner needs glasses. They weren't even close. In the second vid, the ball was inside by around 7 inches. I would keep recording videos when you hit with him and show them to him. Maybe he'll gradually "learn" how to see the ball better or something. Or tell him to get...

    Another tennis myth busted

    I've tried without one, didn't like it. Now I always use a dampener. Less vibration and shock is better for my wrists anyway.

    Alpha Axis Pro or Gamma ST Progression II with stand

    My first and only stringer I've used is the ST-II that I bought 4 months ago. It works great and I've had zero problems with it.

    Head Youtek Radical Pro Set-up

    Eek, I mean they're 18g but still, they only lasted like 3 hours? :-? If I ever try it out, I'm gonna go for the 17g.

    Two-Handed Backhand Grips

    I'm a righty and I use continental (rh) / eastern (lh) grip for my 2hbh. That's what I've been most comfortable with. The tricky part is when I am returning a serve, I usually go with western (rh) / semi-western (lh) but I sometimes try to change my grip if the ball comes toward my bh and it...

    Head Youtek Radical Pro Set-up

    When you say it only lasted you 2 1/2 matches, did you mean it broke? Or it went dead?

    How is Gosen Sheep Micro 17'' in a full job?

    I've done a full job and I also recommend the OG 17g. It gets dead kinda quickly but it's so cheap in a reel that it doesn't really matter hahah.

    Is fed a poor sportsman?

    Just imagine if the roles were reversed. Djokovic would be crucified by this forum. Listen, everyone has good days and bad days where they lose their temper or their composure. Fed had one of those bad days on Monday and was unsportsmanlike on that Djokovic ace. Nobody's perfect. End of story.

    Whey protein

    -How many people you know who plays tennis lift weights? It's a broad generalization because it's broad. 90% of every tennis player I've ever met don't lift weights. To most, tennis IS their workout. -I should've added a comma after the "lean muscles" to separate the two. -I'm not saying...

    Williams make doubles a joke

    Is this thread a joke? Seriously? Get on the courts and improve your game. Practice until it's perfect. The Williams sisters have lost doubles matches before.

    Whey protein

    Some protein will probably help, but seeing as how you don't really lift weights, don't expect much. Non-pro tennis players don't really lift weights, they try to get lean muscles and good stamina from cardio. You don't need 1g/lb of protein per bodyweight. Protein shakes is mainly used for...

    Gosen Polylon

    I've been using a 17g full bed setup for about a month now and I like it more than a full bed of OG Sheep. Definitely more power than Sheep, I felt it on the first hit. One bad thing is that it goes dead pretty quick for me, maybe lasts 10 hours. That said, I haven't tried a hybrid Polylon/Sheep...
