    that is a challenge since the ball needs to be as direct to the radar as possible for best accuracy.
    ie.. a wide serve may only measure 125, but the same serve down the t may have been 130.

    Dear Sir,
    sorry asking a moronic question.
    How do you place a gun on a tripod?
    i.e how a server would avoid destroying my valuble $800 tripod?

    While i have no factual evidence, of theses 2 topics. in terms of multiple suggestions by weel know tennis minds.

    I do have this , i have never been a gye who served any bigger than 120 on most radar guns, EVER!!! However in the past days i have practicing the detayed forearm extension, and more forced pronation, through the ball.
    And some how i went from a gye who never in his life served over 123 "Record" To yesterday i was boming serves over 130 Regularly I even hit one 136, For God sakes!

    So maby theses 2 factors caused me to do something different ? but they worked for me and I havent hit 100 serves yet, so there has to be some releveance.

    I think your right on , weather they catch on or not, maby its because you caught it first and it seems so simple! No mumbo jumbo just look and see it.

    ---> the begining of the second quote by Mr.Stickman
    Believe it was "jugs" im not exactly sure, i know not all radar guns are entirely accurate. But it was a multisport radar gun used by the high school baseball team, i also know it was around 800 $ which dosent mean it the best but im sure its pretty accutate.

    And ya there was only a few certian spots were it could register , id hit one and it would say 109 and then he move and shoot it from another spot and it say 129, so its possible that it could he inaccurate.

    But i was playing with a player in flordia who trained at img for a few years and hit with max the beast and said my serve had very close to the same volicity, i believe he his in the high 120s, and low 130s.

    If you were going to bye a radar gun which would you suggest? And is it better to use a tripod to shoot the ball? In order to get the most accurate reading, because most dont even register. Or they register the ball long after its left the racket.
