    Anyone who has been playing with the ezone 100 have a sense for which previous gen 100 is most similar to the 2022 100? There are so many options.

    Tweener problems: pure strike 100 or pro staff 100

    I haven't had much luck with Head racquets, but I'll throw that on the list. I've hit with my friend's vcore 100 and didn't gel with it, but will be trying the vcore pro 100 and the ezone 100. i have hit with clash racquets but not the 100 pro, so I'll try that out. I definitely didn't have...

    Tweener problems: pure strike 100 or pro staff 100

    I generally really like it, there isn't anything the racquet can't do if I execute correctly. I can say it doesn't have as much power as something like a pure drive or pure aero. It doesn't volley as well as my old pro staff 97 and the serves aren't as heavy. I just get the itch to try...

    Tweener problems: pure strike 100 or pro staff 100

    I'm an out of shape recently minted 40 year old man (emphasis on old lol) who has been happily slapping unforced error after unforced error in 4.0 for a couple years now. I've been playing with a pure strike 100 and still more or less happy with it but getting the itch to try something new...

    Remember the date. August 28, 2021. Infiltrating the Island: MaxTennis vs J011yroger

    I guess this will just become one of those forever lost videos like Marilyn Monroe pegging JFK, Stormy Daniels trying to find fuzzy handcuffs small enough for Donnie's tiny little baby hands, Ghandi and Mother Theresa deep into their furry roleplaying. are you sure you can't just leak it onto...

    Pickleball Playtest - Babolat MONSTER POWER PADDLE

    Caveats: I'm fairly new to pickleball (primarily play tennis) so take my review with that in mind. Based on feedback from people I've played against, I'm guessing I'm somewhere around 3.5 level. I typically play with either a Prince Response Pro or Spectrum Pro and have very little experience...

    Simon defending Novak...

    This is going to age well a few weeks from now as the disease gets passed around and infects more and more people and inevitably, people who are vulnerable to it start dying. There's no reason to pile on top with non-stop threads like we've been seeing, but definitely idiotic to defend the mess...

    Best way to find hitting partner

    if you can't find details about the captains or players through the USTA site, you can always look at past and future tournaments and ask the people that are running those, the tennis director/pros of local clubs, and even local league coordinators in your area and ask them if they can direct...

    Old Version of Pure Strike

    I've been buying them used for around 110 and new for around 140ish. I'm afraid to try the latest one cause what will I do with the 4 older ones I already have if I decide to switch?
