Here are some questions that have been asked
about Prince Tennis Balls that you may find helpful:
Q. What is the difference in performance for the two
top balls?
A. The difference between the two balls is the felt &
the core compound. The felt of the NX Tour ball has more
wool, which provides a softer, thicker feel. The core of
this ball is to provide a more consistent bounce as it does
not loose air pressure as fast as the standard core.
The Futures ball uses a needle punch felt, which is processed
differently as it has less wool & more nylon. The durability
of this felt is good but does not feel as soft or as thick
as the felt used on the Tour ball.
Q. What is the difference in durability for the two
top balls?
A. Both balls are durable but for two different reasons.
As stated above, the core of the future ball will last longer
as it does not lose its pressure as fast. The felt of the
balls are different but they both last for different reasons
- tour ball has more & thicker wool & the futures
ball has more nylon which does not wear down as fast as
wool.
Q. Is the Tour ball a heavy ball to hit?
A. The Tour ball & the futures ball weight is the same,
the tour ball may seem heavier as the strings can penetrate
deeper into the wool felt of the tour ball.
Q. Which would be better for general use?
A. The Tour ball is for more serious players because of
its playability & performance. The Futures ball is more
for recreational use.
