 balls October 10, 2009

I'm disabled and have to use a walker to get around. (Hurt in a car wreck. Life sucks sometimes.)
My walker has a little extension in the rear feet that lets you put tennis balls inside and they roll around freely. Regular tennis balls are expensive and wear out. These are comparatively cheap and because they are solid they last MUCH longer than the pressured tennis balls that come in a can. It's not the use the manufacturer had in mind when they made them, but for me they are perfect.
Pressureless have improved since I used to use them for practice... June 14, 2009

These are much lighter than the bricks we used to use. My father, my 2 kids, and I used 2 cans of pressurized Penn balls with this bag of pressureless balls and I can't really tell the difference in weight.
Are they tough? Yes. The stress test I used is my dog Zaphod. You see, zaphod loves to chew tennis balls and we have problems with regular tennis balls. Within about 3 hours he tears off all the fuzz with his front teeth and then chews the inside rubber into tiny little chunks. You MUST watch him since you can imagine the discomfort that eating rubber chunks could cause a dog after about 24 hours. We gave him one of these pressureless balls 2 months ago. He has yet to tear off any of the fuzz or break the ball. I am THRILLED.
On the court, the fuzz holds up just as well. After one month of use the fuzz is still unfrayed and the balls look darned near new. I think I picked up this same bag at Target for around $8.00 for a dozen, so check there if you have one locally. Either way, this is a great buy for the casual tennis player.
My opinion:
Having played varsity tennis in high-school and HATING the pressureless balls we used in practice because they were so heavy ... I'm very impressed that they have improved so much. And Zaphod likes them too.
My grandchildren loved them! May 8, 2009

I had these sent to my grandchildren, who live far away from me. They thought it was the greatest this to get from Grandma.
 Slightly heavy feel, but very good for practice December 1, 2008

These balls bounce appropriately and seem to be holding their bounce better than normal balls, but feel just a little heavier when we hit them. We haven't weighed them. Good for practice but not quite the same as the real thing.
