Main ball choice...

[TheKingOfClay]

I will mostly be playing on a pretty hard outdoor court, so I have narrowed it down to:

Wilson Us Open Extra Duty

Dunlop Grand Prix Extra Duty

thanks for the help...:-o

They're both decent tennis balls but go with the Dunlops, they own.

 

[TheKingOfClay]

good to know... thanks so much!!!

 

[tbini87]

i like them both also, which prob doesn't help much. i guess try them both and pick the one you like more. im sure you will be ok with either one...

 

[tennis_hand]

i don't find US open that great.

 

[aidenous]

I would go with the Dunlops

 

[TheKingOfClay]

yeah I am looking into getting the Dunlops... thanks again...

 

[justinnum1]

Dunlops are really really good.

 

[snoflewis]

damn...my store didnt have any decent balls, so i just picked up a case of us open XD today. have only tried them once...but love dunlop GPs...

 

[czech09]

Never tried the Dunlops - I'll check them out next time I go buy a new can. I usually use the better Penn ones (not sure of the exact name).

Another vote for Dunlop here

I am practicing/playing on a hard outdoor court mostly... should I get the extra dutys or just go with the regulars? (Dunlop Grand Prix)
thanks!!!

Get extra duty. Regulars are meant for clay courts and their naps won't last long on hard courts.

dunlops rock.....

 

[snoflewis]

US opens aren't bad...i actually like them.

 

[tomzo22]

Penn Championship

I get them at Costco for like 28 USD for 15 Cans.
Great on Hard Courts.

And not bad of a price.

Penn Championships stink depending on how unlucky you get. Poor quality control, and if you arent playing on a clean court they will get pretty close to unplayable by the end of a match.

I was using some the other day because I forgot to bring balls with me so we had to go to the Walgreen's to buy some, and they were practically gray by the time we were done.

Normally I use US Open. But I think the Dunlops Grand Prix are nice as well and I prefer them myself, but some people on my USTA League team like US Open better so I get those.

If Im going for cheap, I buy the Wilson Championship balls, they cost the same as the Penn and seem to be more or less all the same.

It's so funny because yesterday I felt like buying a new can off balls and a different type so while my family was at walgreens I picked up a can of Penn Championship balls because I was low on balls. It cost me $3.69 for the can!

Wilson Us Open Extra Duty

thanks for the help...:-o

last week i bought some from walmart, the "Wilson Us Open Extra Duty", i got to say i did not like them at first and people have stated that same thing in this site as well, but yesterday i used a new pack since i bought like 10 cans ($1.86 tought it was an error, so i got all the ones they had and ran ), the pack i opened yeserday was great, lots of bounce, they feel heavier then most though i guess, but most important the bounce was there, something i did not notice in the first 2 cans i opened in days before, maybe its the inconsistency that people dont like from can to can. and yes all where Wilson Us Open Extra Duty #1s.

 

[Tennis_Monk]

Penn -------> Worst
Wilson --------> II worst
SLAZENGER\DUNLOP --------> BEST

 

[Mr. Rellik]

Penn ATP = worst?

 

[Tennis_Monk]

Penn ATP = worst?

Yes Sir. I hate PENN the most followed by WILSON. They hurt the playing experience. Each can varies in how worse they play.
Prince is OK. Slazenger and Dunlop are the best.

 

[Rafa freak]

I would go with dunlop.

 

[theace21]

Dunlops are becoming very popular around here...1 year ago Penn was the ball of choice, not any more.
