    Looking for advice

    When I started stringing years ago, I used a simple drop weight machine to do my own frames. One thing led to another and I was doing all my friends frames and found myself deep into all things stringing. Long story short, I ended up with an Alpha Axis Pro (with upgrades) AND a Wise tension...

    Any Vantage users left?

    Still using Vantage frames here. Tweaked my specs over the years and went down in grip size. Fooled around with many frames, but come match day, it has always been Vantage.

    whatever happened to Vantage???

    I transitioned from the 100 to the 105. Anyone else play with the 105? I went a little lighter, a little stiffer and kept the extra .25 length. it has been a good switch for me, especially in the power department, the serve and for sure at net.

    Heads up: Vantage is having 50% off sale February 7-11

    if something is $200 and discounted 45% it is then $110 then it is dicounted 50% it is $55 If it were discounted 95% from original price it would be $10 The first scenario applies here.

    Heads up: Vantage is having 50% off sale February 7-11

    In Europe they put the day before the month. Did it not seem strange that it is 7's and 2's in the date? No one is drowning anything out. You were just mistaken.

    Decision to make Vantage vs.....

    What exactly is in your vantage package? Anything other than frames? How many frames? I have played the 300g, m-fil300 and vantage 100 (3,2,1,2,10) - heavier than the Dunlops. The Vantages have served me better as I got better.

    Vantage Clearance?

    I was on the Vantage site building a 105 frame and noticed that they were advertising the prebuilt line at 45% off. I clicked through and saw that was $119. No prebuilts in the 105 headsize though. A pretty good deal. Anyone have info on this? I am curious if there is new product coming or are...

    Vantage VTS strings

    I find these strings to be superb. Lots of feel and a nice sound. Several of my friends who I string for have switched to it. The 2nd generation vts is also more durable than the 1st. I recommend it.

    Anyone hit with the Vantage 105 yet?

    I have not, but I am interested in doing so. Awaiting an email response from Vantage..... I have hit with a few OS frames lately and for the most part, have liked them. The 300G OS has been great, although mine is considerably heavier than listed. I have been recovering from a shoulder injury...

    For those who think/thought that Dunlop was finished in the States

    The mass layoff I agree with. I was not aware of the Vantage team being made up of other former Dunlop people. Vantage would probably need to address that directly.

    For those who think/thought that Dunlop was finished in the States

    No. The owner of Vantage is a former Dunlop person. The rest of the old Dunlop crew in not necessarily on the Vantage team. Also, just to be clear, and not that it has been suggested otherwise, Vantage is a unique product and not a re-cycled Dunlop idea.
