Comments about Pro Penn Marathon Extra Duty 24 Cans:
Overall really enjoy playing with these balls. I really like how it behaves on top spin forehands and kick serves. Balls can be played for two matches and still feel good near the end of the 2nd match.

Comments about Pro Penn Marathon Extra Duty 24 Cans:
These cost a little more, but they are worth it.The commenter who complained about "fuzzing" may have unusual court conditions. I've played more than thirty matches on hard courts with these, and find them to have durable felt that stays compact.

Comments about Pro Penn Marathon Extra Duty 24 Cans:
I've tried them all. This is the ball that still feels new at the end of a long match. Much better quality control than the Wilson US Open and the Penn ATP, both of which have given inconsistent results for me. The Dunlop balls are good on quality but have a softer less durable feel.These balls are worth the premium price.

I am captain of our league, we have used Pro Penn Marathon for past 3 seasons, and find them to be exceptionally long lasting and exhibit a very good bounce.

Q:
Sub: Not a yellow ball
Our training court mostly for seniors is adjacent to our regular playing courts.In the past, we used the "RADICAL " PENN
BALL--NOT MANUFACTURED ANYMORE--to identify easily when the ball
strayed onto the regular playing courts.Could you suggest a ball
which would solve my current problem. Just can"t use yellow balls
Thanks, HadleyAsked on 2/13/2013 by Had from Maricopa, az.1 answer
A:
Options are a bit limited. The conventional tennis balls we carry are all optic yellow. We do have some colored balls, but they are all either low compression balls or pressureless—neither of which are really recommended for regular play. Low compression balls are designed to bounce lower and move slower than normal tennis balls and are intended for use as a training tool with young players. Pressureless balls don't have compressed air in the core and will never go dead, but generally they use a stiffer rubber shell to get the proper bounce. This makes them perfect for ball machines, but it also tends to make pressureless balls stiffer, heavier, and a bit harder on the arm. If you do end up opting for a pressureless ball, the Tretorn Micro-X Two Tone balls (http://www.holabirdsports.com/tretorn-micro-x-2-tone-bag-of-72.html) play more like a conventional tennis ball.Answered on 2/15/2013 by Ryan from Holabird Sports
