Prince Introduces Line of Tennis Balls
Yep...it appears that the company who changed the world with the oversized and longbody racquets has jumped into the tennis ball arena with their "Tour" line. They claim this is a natural progression considering the company’s origins as a tennis ball machine manufacturer. Not sure about that, seems to me Penn and Wilson have this covered, but you never know.
The Tour is a high-end, long-lasting ball. And its only going to be in limited distribution. If anyone sees them or plays them, please let WATR know. Some of the construction aspects of the ball are:
- durable hi-vis woven felt for optimal visibility and a longer-lasting
- dynamic core for extended play
- hand-covered for consistent quality
Also interesting, they are offered in different felt types for different play characteristics and court surfaces. The Tour ball is offered in Extra Duty felt for hard court use, Regular Duty felt for soft court use, and a High Altitude Extra Duty felt for areas above 3,500 feet.
