    The running cost of being a pro

    I'm not sure where you guys get your information, but I read(on the actuall ITF website) that the top tier tournaments are required to provide rooms for the players. travel is all up to the players(of course), and I would assume that if you're NOT in the top 100 you wouldn't be playing a lot of...

    why would top pros use lead tape?

    Arguing for the other side, ^ ^ that would explain why pros have so many racquets :D

    Can I put lead there.

    I think by that point you would be swinging with lead, HAHA!. I'm fully aware of what it does to the swingweight and ballance of the racquet it's-self. I was unhappy with the weight of the n-pro before. I was thinking about putting another ounce on, just to try it out. I think it would be about...

    Can I put lead there.

    http://echopic.com/4vx7 I have a 1/2 ounce of lead under each top white band on the throat. I've never seen it before, but I really like it. just wondered if there are any rules against it.

    why would top pros use lead tape?

    pros like to do it because they don't always like the same thing. AND, it's more accurate to put on little bits of lead here and there as they please. you can also change the properties of the balance and(in the end effect) change the recoil of the ball. if you put a large amount of lead in a...

    Best intermediate stringer...

    I looked, and no one seems to ask about intermediate level stringers. SO... I'm looking for a stringing machine around $300-$500, And I don't really want it to be a drop weight because I'm hoping to upgrade to an electic soon after(wise tension head). So what yall suggest? Thanks Ben

    what racquet is chris guccione using?

    It's the new K-pro open(I can't tell if it's the tour or not.). It's deffinantly not a PJ, the head shape is different(the old one is almost perfectly round, this one is more oval).

    Is anyone other than me excited for the K-pro open?

    I really want to try it out, I love my Npro and have had nothing else like it. But it seems like no one is interested in either if them. So I want to hear from the Npro and Kpro fans(and if someone could post some good pics of it that would be cool).

    how heavy is your racket? - poll

    I have a Wilson N-Code Npro open. I Don't know how much lead I put on the head of it but I have a one once weight on the bottom of the throat. Total weight is about 13.7oz(I think). For me it swings really fast through the strike zone with little to no raquet deflection. Balance would be about...

    If you don't mind stringing often, and can control a multi, should you use it?

    Well I just can't understand that. I have been using a full multi for most of the 3 years I have been playing tennis, I tried the hybrid setup(bab pro hurricane tour) this year and thought that I liked it better. I played with that for about a month or two and then I broke a string, I didn't...

    If you don't mind stringing often, and can control a multi, should you use it?

    First of all, what do you mean by "can control a multi"? the multi fillument string isn't some super powerfull beast that only the most elite of tennis gods can play with, sure it has slightly more power than a hybrid but it has much greater feel. I tend to mess around with my stroke a...

    I NEED something better than my drop weight.

    What are my best options for a stringing machine for $1000? It has to be an electric stringer, not another drop weight or crank system. I have been looking at the laserfibre machines and stringay and I really like the way they work, I have heard that it's hard to buy them though(anyone know...

    When did you start playing tennis?

    2 years, I'm 15 now. But I broke my left big toe on the last few weeks of the first year and I broke my right(I'm a righty) wrist snowboarding in the winter of the same year.

    Which spelling do you prefer: "racquet" or "racket"?

    RACKET "a noise that is loud and annoying" USED IN A SENTENCE " They are making such a racket over there" RACQUET "an implement used to play the sport of tennis" USED IN A SENTENCE "Check out this new racquet that I got from tennis warehouse" I don't think it is the exact dictionary, but...

    Pros using xl racquets?

    You point is still wrong. You are implying that if one had such a stroke as to swing at full reach and stretch that the difference(between the XL and normal racquet's) would be indiscernible. But given the XL racquet, wouldn't this person be able to play at an even higher level with more pace...
