Where did you get the racquets from?

I think this needs to be your new profile pic (your going to have to crop it to a square first.)

My club is one of 8 tennis clubs owned by sparetime.

Because of this we are lucky enough to share six 12 racquet bags full of them. The racquets jump from club to club.

We want white tennis balls next yr too!

This was our second yr

wow, this is awesome John! i have never played with a wood racquet... should be continental grip all-throughout, much earlier racquet prep, size of a marble sweet spot and no throat! try hitting a full western forehand with those sticks..
