My girlfriend is an amazing runner but has never played tennis. She is 5' 1", 110 lbs and has nearly zero arm strength. I was considering a junior racquet for her, but i would like to get her something decent. Is it wise to stick with a lighter weight 27-27.5" frame or is a 28" frame...

I'm considering stepping up the quality of my string to a high quality multifilament like Gamma Revalation Professional or a natural gut hybrid like the KLIP Lightning Gut/Multi Hybrid 16 String. I am, however, a financially struggling high school senior, so durability is an issue. I'm thinking...

I'm looking for high playability without resorting to Babalot VS or anything too expensive. Any suggestions in the $15-20 price range. Can anyone compare a high quality multi filament string like the Gamma Live Wire Professional to a low quality natural gut like Titan? Those seem to be two...

Do you have available any of the O3 tour replaceable throat pieces for sale. If so, how much are they and how can i purchase them? Thank you for your time.

i don't have the resources to get second 03 tour ms... but i go through about 4 super graps a month while hitting 1.5 hours per day on average.

I own an 03 tour midsize, and yes, for a 95" head, it plays very forgivingly. I would highly recommend demoing either the MP of "MS" frames. I ended up liking it over comperable wilson and head models.

I beg the question AGAIN! Obviously... since i'm such an ignorant know nothing - theartoftennis - please, inform the masses of your secret knowledge regarding this potentially good racquet

I'm demoing a FXP radical tour right now and it feels like crap. I would also like to know precisely how to use the flexpoint design "Theartoftennis".

Rich s... you are absolutely correct. I was just a little curious as to people's first hand experience. Thanks for the imput guys.

Is there any actual benefit of a cross bar stabilizer. Does it actually "reduce twisting and provide a more solid feel" as prince would like us to think. I ask because I have never hit with one and am trying to decide whether to demo the FP radical tour (non stabilizer) or the NXG MP...

i just borrowed a friend's diablo MP today strung with some 15L gauge at mid tension... it was about the softest feel imaginable. Look at the specs... an extremely open string pattern with a 19mm flat beam. I don't know what racquet some of you are swinging.

TW!!! I got my money ready and my four racquets to demo ready in my mind.... but the 03 tour mid is not available for demo still? Could someone please humor me with an estimate of when this racquet will be available to DEMO.

Why does TW rate the Tour Diablo MP as such a better racquet that the NXG MP? Do you prince users out there agree? I would have though the MORE features of the NXG would amplify the beauty of graphite in addition to its more player like weight.

To clarify, Pomeranian, my concern deals with switch grip to use while hitting a slice shot myself, not returning a slice shot hit by my opponent. And Tallgeese, its interesting that you mentioned that thing about switching the other direction... because i never noticed that that is what i have...

I know nothing about what real strokes look like. I hit a pretty heavy and spin friendly forehand topspin with a grip somewhere between western and semi-western. I also have always hit a very consistent and low skipping baseline slice forehand; however, i have and can only do this when i switch...

Well... my tennis past is kinda crazy. i picked it up very old school like... bringing in the techniques i knew from ping pong... which was most like a western stroke. So i used a very western grip for three years with a 120 in^2 frame and it worked well... but i realized i was missing out on...

I finally gave up on trying to make an eastern forehand work as a local tennis pro had been advising me. Now... i'm looking for the best stick for it. Does anyone know of a good players frame from 95-100 in^2 of 11.8+ oz? People actually make fun of me because i generate so much top spin with...

Racquet finder hasn't been working for at least 24 hours if not more... why?

I don't know why this has not occured to me before, and maybe i'm missing out on something that is commonly known, but doesn't it make sense to use a longer stick if you swing western? A western forehand is naturally a shorter swing than an eastern; would it not make sense to try to compliment...

I have a theory that TW is purposely not answering this question for some reason. Two newer posts have been adressed before this one and it wasn't answered a when it was first posted a while back. Please tell us TW! We all want to know.

There was a post regarding this same question a few weeks ago, but nobody from the TW staff ever adressed it. There was a post a while back from Chris stating that the Prince 03 Tour OS was due to arrive 2/17/06... will the midsize 03 tour be available the same day? Also... will 2/17 be the day...

My game is progressing a little, and i know now that my LM radical is too light for me now. I want to go to a beefier stick... but i don't know what to expect from these racquets like the Yonex RDX 500 or 6.1 tour with this extreme headlightness and low SW... the RDX mid is 318! Does moving so...

Does anyone know what we could expect if they started making 14mm beam, 12 ounce racquet with a more even balance. Something like that could really amplify the effects of the Flexpoint design. If the flex is low enough... power would be about the same with good control. Swingweight would go...

As the guy with sucky answers... it absolutely depends on the racquet and what you are looking for out of it whether or not you use it. I tried putting lead at 3 and 9 on my LM radical... it just killed the balance and feel that makes that racquet so great. I voted no.... personally.

The reason that i decided to go with it was because it was the only true midplus frame that i could make a transition to from a Prince MORE Thunder... a 115 in^2 head... 75 stiffness... 27.5" length... It is an easy stick to hit with and is likley to be a great transition racquet... a real...

So... blake's not going to alter the O-ports out of the stock model of his racquet... will he? That would be a little on the obvious side.

Thanks Byteme45 for that satisfying post. A swingweight of 317 is still low, but it is believable at least. On that balance issue... they are just using metric... here's how to find the balance... Note: One inch equals 2.54 centimeters. Balance point of 31.75 / 2.54 = 12.5 Mid point...

RAR!!! i understand i can go to the Prince Homepage and check their specs... but it is without strings... the swingweight is not 300 unless it is one mile head light... does anyone know of a source that has done testing on this stick?

If you have the demo... please tell us the specs on the throat. It is impossible to decifer the specs on prince racquets as long as they keep on doing their testing without strings. Is there anything exciting spec wise you have to share. Also, how does the odd 16 x 20 pattern play. Something...

What is Head C.A.P (Computer Aided Protection) that they are saying is on the FP as was on the LM and previous models?
