Thanks Green Mile! I'll try stop by there from my roadtrip. I assume the outdoor public courts are free to play on?

I am going to New Zealand this weekend for about 10 days. Anybody have recommendations for places to play tennis in New Zealand? Either Island. I will have my racket and shoes on me. What is the usual rate to play tennis? Thanks for any resources or information!

I should probably note I'm not a fan of clay courts. I've played at subpar clay courtlocations and the clay was so bad it would clump up or it was quite bare on the ground. This made for about 30% or more bad bounces. But maybe that's how it goes, I need to learn how to play on Clay. For the...

That is very limiting I would bet for anyone to suggest something. Thanks for the suggestion LaZeR. I play in Seattle and about 99% of the tennis centers here have indoor as an option. I realize that outside this country, indoor is not frequently an option. Of course, I am open to move within...

Interesting question here where I am trying best to research my options. I am planning to take a year and find a place to play tennis for most of this time off. Where would you choose if you had this option? -I'm in my late 20s and healthy (thanks to tennis) and am looking for a place that's a...

Seattle

I live downtown. A good resource for this area is tennisround.com or pugetsoundtennistour if you want to find someone to play here with mass distribution. Enjoy your stay!

Thanks for the ideas. The second link doesn't work, I think it's blocked out from the forum. Can you PM me or repost it? Thanks!

Hey SportCampTravel, Thanks! this will be my first time in Europe. I'm looking to set up tennis matches or just hit. I haven't thought about buying into lessons anywhere. I just like meeting new people and hitting. I plan on hitting in Warsaw with some buddies, but I don't know too many...

I'm spending a week in Cinque Terre and a day in Rome. I was wondering where I could find tennis to play at near the Levanto Train station or near the beach to the west of the train station. I found a couple courts on google maps just panning around. Is there a better way to locate courts in...

jonahnaturals. Thanks for the extra rehab routine. I'm doing this in addition to thrower's 10. Giving it another month, been 4 months now. that's my limit and i see the doctor for MRI. I'm eager to get into 5.0 league before I get too old.

Very interested to see how your healing unfolds. I have impingement and shoulder instability for last 3 months or so, and am thinking to get an MRI for further eval. Keep to it!

Over 3 months in. Not lots of pain for daily stuff. Rehab everyday once a day, i should be doing 3 times a day but it's hard during a full work schedule at the office. But when I try to lift above my arm, i get a pinch. During the day sometimes it will un-hinge and cause lots of pain. I can't...

Having shoulder problems myself. Been about 2 months. Original thought it was going to be 6 weeks. I've gotten over other muscle tears with rehab. But this shoulder one is a doozy to figure out. I'm pretty serious too when I rehab. I get better than most of the grade I tear recooperation...

How do you play a guy who slices every ball to your back hand low and approaches? He keeps it pretty deep and skidding a bit low every time to the backhand. When I return, I either chunk it for an easy put away, or I net it. What's the basic premise to returning this back well? Thanks for...

I would say my lungs go out and I'm out of breath -kind of tiredness. And I'm tired for the next point. I will take in your guys suggestions. Looks like I have to work on a new technique by the sounds of it. I'm short (5'7"), so I tend to arm the ball because it's high, neck-height, alot. I...

Hi. I can hit 2h backhands all day and get to some competitive 4.0 matches (ntrp semis and finals). But when I hit full backswing forehands, I get tired after a few games. So I tend to just slice forehands deep to the opponents backhand. What can I do physically or technically to increase my...

Do nadal or Federer ever use the Dri-fit elastic version of the bandanas??? As far as I can tell, they look like they use the 100% cotton bandanas but have them specially made in those designs for sale (as dri-fit).

Yeah, It's the whole buttcap that fell off. I looked under the grip and buttcap and the white structure looks cracked. Never seen under the buttcap before on any racquet till I received this used racquet and it fell off. Any good solution to this? I'll have to see about borrowing a staple...

Are any of these on the list better than the revo?? For example, the electronic constant pulling machine from mutual power?

My brother is buying me a stringer for christmas. What is the best stringer between these models? disregarding price. I heard lots of good things about the revo for it's value, but which is better overall? Alpha Revo 4000 MutualPower Atlas 8600 Eagnas Combo 3800 MutualPower TITAN 7600...

Do you know how to fix butt caps? I have not found a video anywhere on how to fix butt caps. I have found various articles using various methods, but no video and comparisons on how good each solution is. Thanks if anyone can provide this. I recently purchased a used racquet on ****...

After several years of using the Silent Partner Swing (200$ 6pt mount dropweight), I'm ready to move on. Now, I liked the dropweight because it had a constant pull and could do a quality job as any other machine out there, but just takes time (one to 1and half hrs, which I didn't care about...

And the fact that the ball wobbles? When I got finished with playing with the newer babolats, I went back to other racquet play. But what upset me the most was when I began seeing mirages of wobbling when they weren't really there. Babolats totally screwed my vision. The good news tho...

I just got my hands on the aerodrive cortex for the first time. Is it me or does the ball wobble when you hit with the cortex system? I have a friend who uses the same racquet, another who uses pure drive, and my partner used a head metallix. I could tell the difference in wobblyness...

After quite a bit of research, it looks like the revo has been getting rave reviews as of recent. I think I might buy into one, even tho i only string about once every 2-3 months. I just want a quicker means of stringing than the drop weight, even tho the Swing was such a solid stringer.

I've always heard of the elusive slazenger balls being the best ball to use over the prestigious dunlop grand prix. Are THESE the Slazengers everyone's been talking about or are these a different model/series? They look like newly made promotional balls for the upcoming wimbledon

Thanks for the suggestions. Really appreciate it. I was thinking about a luggage cart for a while, but I know I'll get inconvenienced by having to bring two things when I can just add wheels to my unwarranted ball machine. And the 2nd hand buyer will have to just deal with the upgrade (yeah...

I have used the SP Swing for about 2 1/2 years. It's a solid machine. I chose it over the eStringer because I heard cheap electronics have consistency issues with voltage and pull and break easier, while the SP Swing uses natural physics and gravity to get consistency. But now I've moved out...

I'm looking for something like a bracket-like cast that i could superglue to the corners and have 2 or 4 wheels, depending on a handle to hold it at an angle. My warranty is probably out. It's an old tennistutor lite from 2-3 years ago. i rarely used it because of the transportation issue.
