New Racquets, Shoes & Bags arrive Friday - LOVE the weather!!!

We are seeing WAY too many racquets that have done their job for you - but are trashed - why? When your racquet has no bumper guard and the frame is worn down to well, nothing...it's time. There are many nice frames that do NOT break the bank. If you really ARE a Hardcore Tennis Player, then your equipment is 'darn' important...(this is public so i didn't use the words i wanted to)

New Frames, Shoes and Bags are here Friday...

Day 2 Remodel at Hardcore Tennis Atlanta

Hardcore Tennis Store Remodel UPDATE - from Eric

Hardcore Tennis Customer Speaking Out...

Eric, The hybrid setup of gut in the mains and barbed wire in the crosses is outstanding! The tension of 56/52 in my Dunlop Maxply McEnroe is giving me more angles and action on the ball, and control and placement when I need it. It still feels like gut but with a firmer spring.

Vantage Tennis is having a Birthday - and offering to the first 1000 customers, Bastcore Frames for $100.00
We know how awesome the frames are and feel confident in this promotion! I think they are throwing in a bag of 'goodies' too. Who knows what is in that!
The sale is international so it may not be around for long - these frames are very popular in Europe

You can demo the racquets at our Marietta store before buying. We have all three frame demo's. We have a direct line to Sven at Vantage so your order will get priority!

If you are anyone you know needs a new stick - these are incredible and very much worth consideration! We aren't making much money on this promo but feel you deserve to know when a nice deal is presented!

Polyester Tennis String - Is it for your game or not?

I think the largest improvement in tennis equipment over the past 10 years is/are strings. Higher level players have always known how important strings and stringing are. And now it looks as though the rest of the tennis playing world is catching on!

Let's start with the string type that has had the most buzz in recent years:

Polyester was once considered just a more forgiving option to kevlar strings. Dead feeling, with a slippery surface, and horrible tension maitanence, polyester strings were pretty much ignored in the US.

But now many polyester strings (co-polys) are softer, spin enhancing, and still very durable. Chronic string breakers who prefer a strings that don't feel like bricks now have many great choices.

Kirschbaum Pro Line II was one of the 1st polyester strings that provided durability, feel, and spin enhancement. " I  forgot that I was using a polyester string" is a typical comment from players using Pro Line II for the first time. A round string with a sticky, spin enhancing coating, Pro Line II is a fantasic option for a string breaker who wants more feel and power. Available in gauges 1.15, 1.20, 1.25 and 1.30.  It comes in red or  black.

Solinco Tour Bite is a  cool, silver colored, four sided string. If you're looking to add more spin to your game Tour Bite is  a must try.  It is available in 1.15, 1.20, 1.25, 1.30  gauge. Tour Bite

Gamma Zo Verve is a very unique looking , two-toned (black and red), 3 sided string.  A little on the firm side, Zo Verve is a great string for hard hitters looking for more control and spin.  It comes in 1.25 and 1.30 gauges.

Topspin Max Rotation is a black, shiny,  seven sided string. Max Rotation is great for players looking to add spin without sacrificing comfort. One of the best kept secrets on the market, Max Rotation has been a HCT fan favorite for  two years. Max Rotation comes in gauges 1.27 and 1.31.

All of these strings are excellent playing, and not so hard on the arm. But they are polyester: Tension loss can be quick and drastic! So while co-polys are excellent for spin enhancement, they do not hold tension well.

Because polyester strings are so durable, most players wait way too long before they restring. We often have customers come in and complain about shoulder, elbow, or wrist pain. This  is usually due to stiff and or dead strings. When you're ready let us pick out a good string for you!
