    With a lot of sections starting up and Sectionals/Nationals scheduling up in the air, what changes to league offerings have you seen? Here in SoCal, we've seen Spring Men's and Women's Leagues canceled and the addition of another Fall Mixed League. And with all these changes and no...

    Head Graphene 360+ Speed Pro Review

    I played with the Pro in stock form and it felt maneuverable and pretty stable. I felt like it excelled from the back -- groundies felt very controlled with a predictable response. I did have some issues controlling volleys and my serve felt like it lost some punch. Overall, I thought it had...

    Schmeke gets famous on Essential Tennis

    What's with all the hate for the ET guys? All they claimed was that they were 5.0s (IMO true) and that they think they'd give Simon from TTT a run for his money if it were 2v1. To me they seem pretty down to earth and teach solid tactics.

    2019 All TT Team - 4.5 Men

    Got the bump also... :( @schmke or anyone else knowledgeable - is there a "cooloff" period after auto-appealing? Meaning, if someone auto appeal this year and get denied, will they have the option to auto appeal again next year?

    Men's Open Tourney: USTA 4.5 vs Top 300 Junior

    Men's Open Tourney: USTA 4.5 vs Top 300 Junior

    Nice match Tim! If you were settled in, I think you could have made it close. Have you noticed any level difference in league play between SoCal and NorCal so far?

    Indian Wells 2019

    I played recently on the grass courts at the JW Marriott. Great courts, just call 2 days in advance to reserve - no need to be a hotel guest.

    *****THE OFFICIAL HEAD PRO TOUR 630/280 Club*************

    I use Cyclone (not Tour) in a hybrid with synthetic gut crosses. I love the bite I get during the first hour or two and usually cut it out after about 10 hours of play. The frame really works well with crisper polys like Cyclone, softer strings end up feeling too mushy for me.
