I have watched both Nadals matches and Murrays. I think Nadal is actually back to his best and Murray looks his normal self with a little more pop and aggressive on his forehand. Nadal has done pretty much as expected as has Murray but with Murray…

my S & V game


As some of you know Im a bit of a Racketaholic.
Throughout the 2 yrs Ive been playing i have continually analysed my progression, fitness and equipment.
As i did with golf when i was younger over a period of 3 yrs I moved from a 9 handicapper to scratch using the same obsessive analysis.
As iv… Continue

The most beautiful racket in the world!



Ive been playing with Prince Ozone Tour for the past 3 months and playing some of the most consistent stuff in 2 yrs. My problem with it is I cant serve with it! Maybe its the larger head I dont know, cant hit a hot serve and cant slice out wide. As my serve is my biggest weapon I decided to go… Continue

Customisation and Paint Jobs (join my group)


Tried the customised route and it works for me on a head LM radical and i.radical (strung weight 318g) I added an extra grip (15g) and lead top of handle (20g) and lead at 10 & 2 (10g) Total weight 363g, and 8 pts head light. These IMO are the best rackets to customise (the r… Continue

Dodgy knees and the hardcourt season.



Forget the grass court season August is my favourite time with Montreal, Cincinnatti and the US Open all on the hard courts, great games, great point, just great tennis.

Who are your tri-bet for the series above, who will be number 1 when the US open is… Continue

Awesome! I featured it. Yeah, this will help keep more blogs on the main page. I want to make the blogs more prominent since we get so many great ones here. I'm thinking about moving the latest activity to the side - although I know that the LA is good for new members. people like to join sites where there is a lot of activity. thx again. M

Richard, Did you get my other message about blog images? I was playing around and cropped your pic, check it out. Can you put this one at the top of your blog?

Thanks for the Racquet tip. Is there a 6.1 98"? I feel like going a little bigger. I tested a 6.1 (if this is Roger's paint job) and liked it pretty well a couple years ago. Maybe that is a good idea.

Nice Art Richard. I read the comments about racquets you posted and found it interesting. The Fischer is a nice looking racquet. Don't see them around here. I use prince now.I am a training aid developer and not a pro player, but love to see different technologies to give players an advantage. Seems like the feel and action you get from the Fischer is great for your game.

Good luck
