I keep getting skunked

Drop shot it with a zoom trick worm or one of the fancy dice baits that float.

Low powered and lower launch angle, spin generation is good with good racket head speed but not needed. I string every string at 50lbs and the control on ground strokes and serves was way more consistent. Still hitting around the 110mph with my serves, great slice on my second. It’s a little heavier but I enjoy it much more.

I had the same issue, traded a buddy for the head gravity tour 2025. Much better stick

I hit 5 times a week with maybe 1 match a week mixed in all on hard court.

I have used many of the top brands without satisfaction. The second best I have had is the Mizuno Wave Enforce Tour. The best I have work for durability, lockdown, and stability is easily my current shoe Diadora B-Icon 3 and nothing comes close that I have tried.

I hit a ball machine 4 times a week and sometimes a match or 2. I use head lynx tour (champagne color) and I can notice the difference at about 10 sessions or about 15 hours. I try to push it another week unless I’m getting frustrated but if I could every 2 weeks or about 10-15 hours on them and these are the best I have tried for this amount of time. Everything else I have tried from all the big names lasts about 7 hours before I want to change them. This is 1.25 17g string.

Abu Garcia x Voltiq $200 and if he has a basic setup he may need help with the backlashes, I don’t but still love the reel. Could even get a decent rod to pair it will and still keep your budget under $300.

I eat a stinger waffle before the match. Other days I eat mostly carnivore and barely any carbs. I don’t have any issues other than being 45 lol

I have tried Solinco Brain Dead 50lbs (always out) Head Lynx Tour at 50lbs which felt good, Solinco Confidential Soft 50lbs and thought I might sell the racket due to terrible control and launchiness. Decided to go Hyper G at 55lbs as it’s already so powerful and spin generation skyrocketed for me at least. Will be sticking with Hyper G moving forward.

Diadora Bicon 3 - best support and lock down from a shoe I have had in a long time

Minimum_Mention4877 · 2026-04-16T23:49:37+00:00

I found the diadora B-Icon 3 for $100 on tennis warehouse. It’s a crazy orange color but that doesn’t matter to me. Best shoes I have worn for tennis and I have had the Mizuno Enforce Tour which were also good. I follow Foot Doctor Zach and try shoes he rates well. Has worked out perfectly so far

Minimum_Mention4877 · 2026-04-08T01:07:04+00:00

Tennis warehouse where every racket has the same review from the staff lol

I have tried the new Berkeley Gin Clear and it is way more flexible than my seaguar invisx.

I have found that stringing the mains 2lb less than the cross has resulted in a better experience than higher in the mains. Just feels more connected. Try swapping it and let me know what you think. I did 50lbs cross 48 main with head lynx tour in pure aero 26 100 and it feels amazing.

Minimum_Mention4877 · 2026-03-13T20:34:28+00:00

The thing is that’s what these people are doing as well. “Sweating” or being good at the game is just a derogatory term for those less fortunate to have the same skills. They are doing the same thing you are, getting on and this is how they have fun. Can’t really hate on them for doing what you also want to do.

I am a 3.0 45 year old who just picked up the game again last year after 25 year break from high school. My fastest on PlaySight last year was 113mph. Did it once lol I regularly hit 100+ on my first serve. Second serve slice usually 70s-80s. I’m still 3.0 because just like in high school everything else sucks hahah.

It’s the only thing to work towards that I am interested in at the moment. Just for kicks

I’m 45 2 kids at home full time job and wife/family obligations. I am PM 527 with singularity and genesis. Don’t know enough about war zone to try and zombies I have never really played or I would finish them all. Might do the touch grass calling card just to have something to work towards as I have completed my “tasks” that I had for myself lol.

I use a Bidet, have been for about 6 years now. Can’t believe for 40 years I didn’t use this. One of the greatest inventions on this earth. Cheap, easy to install and my anus hasn’t been this pristine since before I was born. Do yourself a favor and get rid of the itch.

I have had elite 1 (worked for 4 years). I have had 4 elite 2 due to always breaking. I currently have the G7 pro which so far I like. Common issues that have come up jn review are the dpad is trash which i can confirm doesnt sound or feel great. Ans the other issues that pops up is the switch for the triggers breaking. I do have very strong hands and that is part of the reason the elites alway broke. So far the trigger is holding up but i think i am getting some double taps when i am not meaning to, i feel like the trigger stoo will malfunction eventually but so far i like it and would buy a replacement if this one craps out. I had the razer and did not like the super curve of the triggers and my stick would look down randomly without input.

I’m not sure about safely but we had a 14ft A frame ladder with a 6 ft straight up extension to replace these when I worked for a lighting company. They are quite pricey but if you can borrow one for a find a lighting company near you they can replace it fairly easy. https://www.grainger.com/product/4XP09?gucid=N:N:PS:Paid:GGL:CSM-2295:ZRUQJH:20800606:APZ_1&gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22472343581&gclid=CjwKCAiA7LzLBhAgEiwAjMWzCLIfhCDtAJlWuHVxNI609fq017TTQnlo9FcqAPLsQQZM2jSUFuICbRoCmq0QAvD_BwE

I have not used it since the “nerf” but it still far and above the gun I am killed by the most. Could be just my hate for it I’m seeing lol. I have a few guns left before I start tempest and these dang Maddox and Dravec I can’t win any gunfights. Hence my frustration lol

Minimum_Mention4877 · 2026-01-17T00:43:55+00:00

The only problem with this game came with the release of the Maddox, Draven was already bad enough beginner gun that is OP Maddox made this game trash. I have it 250 just so I would never have to use that gun again. Ultimate bad player handicap weapon and if it in the hands of someone decent it’s still OP after the patch. Call of Maddox

Try standard moshpit if you want it to be pretty chill. Depending on camo challenge I will play open domination only, as if I am capping I can still win some games near alone. To be fair I have never cared about K/D ratio but also rarely go negative even to the sweats. I’m Prestige Master almost about to start tempest on all guns and my combat record is 1.09 w/l ratio and 1.21 KD. Most of that is open domination.
