    Well, I doubt there is really any kind of etiquette.  It certainly
doesn't exist at the pro level.   In fact, I saw Steve Denton and
Billie Jean play mixed, and he was acing Wendy for a while.  They
were playing to win, not to make it competitive.  If on the other
hand, you play just to play, then backing off might make it more
fun.  Just don't complain if you lose.   In fact, John Lloyd once
claimed he should have hit a woman with a ball (he had a chance,
but aimed at the feet, she half-volleyed, won the point, and the
opponents may have won).

I agree with Charles. I recently heard Chris Evert doing commentary
and someone (perhaps Bud Collins) said that Brenda Schultz had a problem
winning because she felt sorry for her opponent. Chris said something
like "Well, she'd better get over that quickly!"

As to Eric's original question, you were playing Team Tennis, right? I'd
classify that as a "competitive" situation. IMHO, I'd say play your game
and don't modify your service motion or game just to be "nice".  At one of our
matches, one woman asked the male opponent to *not* ease up on his serve.
She was offended that he was easing up a bit. I play both "social" and
Team Tennis. The only way I can get better is if people hit me their best
shot (this does not mean intentionally "hitting me" with their best shot;-).
There are some women who play the "social" mixed doubles night where I do and
get very offended if they get aced or passed a lot, so much so that they don't
show up again. I say it is their loss, for they will not improve until they
learn how to play better players. I should mention that many of the men who
play the "social" doubles night, will ease up on shots to get rallys going.
But these same men will not do so (nor should they) in competitive tennis.

Reply-To: venkatac@oasys.dt.navy.mil (Ravanasamudram Venkatachalam)
Organization: Carderock Division, NSWC, Bethesda, MD

Recently, I have seen a couple of articles where people have been uncomfortable
with the state of the art "wide body racquets."  I myself belong to
that category, and will put down my observations, and would like others
to put down their comments also. I will start with my experience.

I switched from a wood to a composite racquet "Dunlop Ceramax" in '86
since wood racquets were going out of fashion.  I was sort of not very
happy with it. Then in '88 with the surge of new wide bodied racquets,
I procured one which had a very good rating and had a very nice balance.
it was the Slazenger Silhouette 95.  Initially, I thought i was hitting
nicely with it, then ove the past 4 years i find that I am overhitting
the ball most of the time.  I have now switched to the Dunlop Ceramax
with which I am much more comfortable.  This year I have noticed that
many more players are playing with the thinner composite racquets.
One other thing that I noticed is that the game is much faster when
people are using the thinner racquets.  Even though it has been widely
advertised that the wide body has more power I myself have seen and
experienced that I can get much more whip into the ball, expecially
on my serve.  This may have a lot to do with timing.  There is no doubt
that it takes less effort to stroke a ball with the wider bodied racquets,
but all the same to give the ball some pace and yet keep it in court.
Anyway, I am interested in other peoples' views and experiences.

Additionally, I am interested in getting a thin composite racquet, but
none of the tennis shops carry them.  The names Dunlop 200 max g and
the original prostaff have appeared in the net before, but if I am not
mistaken, they are also 22mm in width which is the same width as the
prostaff classic, which I think is too wide for me.  The Dunlop 200
G and the original prostaff also are not carried in the shops.  So what
does one do in a situation like this?

The Dunlop Max 200G is 22mm (sometimes referred to as the real first widebody),
the original Pro Staff is much thinner. The Pro Staff Classic is also 22mm.
You should be able to find these racquets in pro shops since the frames are
still in production. If your local shops don't carry them, try mail order.

A comment and a question

A comment on the topspin posting. As a novice player
I found that using the correct forehand grip to be
a major factor that helped me in getting my topspin 
going. i.e with the forefinger knuckle turned furthur down.

Question:
I recently changed from single hand to double handed
backhand. I find that I can get much better topspin
with the two handed backhand. My two hand grip 
goes with my left hand higher up than right hand.
But I found that Seles and and Connors have their
right hand higher up than left. Is it because I am
right handed and they are left handed or just a 
matter of convinience.

Finally how does one spell - 
racket or Raquet or Racquet

I saw all 3 of them on this group!

  Wilson Hammer is called hammer because its weight distribution is
  like a hammer i.e. its weight is concentrated near the head. It has
  a larger sweet spot. It is also one of the lightest racquets.

  If the tennis shop has a demo program, Wilson Hammer is definitely
  the racquet that you should try.

Grip is probably THE KEY! If I hit with an Eastern Grip, I get a little
top just from my swing. When I go to my normal Semi-Western Grip, I 
get lots of top. If I go Western, I get more than I could ever want (moon-
ball city here!). All off of essentially the same swing.

It has always been my understanding that two handed backhands
offer the convenience of amazing angles and easy top spin versus shorter reach.
I use a one handed back hand and my coach now has me in a groove on this one.
I feel invincible on the backhand topspin on all but the lowest of slices. And
I can hit it really hard and with good accuracy too! I would never consider a
2 hander, but they certainly work for lots of people.

As to the other part of the question-I don't understand what you mean.
Do you mean they have the R hand closer to the head, or that they are rotated
higher??? Either way, I suspect this is due to leftiness.

>Finally how does one spell - 
>racket or Raquet or Racquet
                     ^^^^^^I spell it this way! I think the first could be the
American variant on the word (like check/cheque, catalog/catalogue).

I don't know what his name is, but I think it is a bit strange to say
that Lendl lost the match BECAUSE OF the umpire. I didn't see the
match, but probably Krajicek played a good match also. Lately Lendl is
complaining a lot about several empires. I think he is getting old.
Maybe he should consider to stop playing. At Wimbledon this year we
saw that he will never be able to win this tournament, so there is no
real reason for him to continue playing.

Try out the Wilson Pro Staff shoe. It comes in a low and mid.  You can

to be one heck of a durable shoe.  It is quite supportive as well and

   I'm quite impressed with Martin's showing.   He's given people like
Courier, Sampras, and now Lendl, a hard time.   He's a solid baseliner
(surprising since he's something like 6 foot 6 inches  -- probably
just under 200 cm) who's got a pretty good serve.   The likelihood
is that he won't break though as so few players ever do.

Are you sure that it was a close match?  My paper says that he beat Richie
Renenberg(spelling most likely wrong), whom I believe is a
doubles specialist who travels with the U.S. Davis Cup team; the 
score was 6-2, 6-3, or something like that.  I don't see how the
other guy could have had 3 set points.  
The close match he did have was in the 2nd round against a young German,
Baur, seeded 111.

Sounds like you're describing the full Western grip.  Myself, I've
instinctively used the Semi-western since I was a kid, so if I try
to use an Eastern forehand, the racquet face tends to open on me.

Bingo.  I do use the Eastern on forehand volleys.  (Wish I could get
comfortable with Continental for a one-grip net game.)  The really

   Play more patiently, wait for openings, and perhaps come in a little
more.  He has this mindset that he always needs to play more agrresive
than his opponent, and when it doesn't work, he doesn't fall back on
other options.
