I'd have to disagree with the other reviewer. I've been a tennis teaching pro for seven years now, and these balls have put up with tons of hitting, and have great shelf life. I've used them in much less than desirable conditions and only have to replace them once a summer, and I coach 5 or 6 times a week. They bounce true and although they aren't the exact weight of a normal ball, the average player would never notice.

I bought these balls a few weeks ago and the bounce is low and noticeable compared to regular tennis balls or other pressureless balls. I am thinking about returning these or just discarding them from my regular set of tennis balls.

I have 120 gamma pressureless balls from 2008 (dual color yellow/blue) and they are work fine. The current set does not say pressureless on them. Perhaps these are meant for pets!

Avoid these, if you need the balls for tennis machine try something else.

Shame on you Gamma for such a poor product. I bought these because I liked the quality of my old Gamma balls.

Balls lost their stiffness after 2 weeks of use with a ball machine. The other brand of balls purchased are still somewhat stiff and have a much better and even bounce.

Maybe I got a bad batch, but these were nearly flat right out of the bucket. After a few uses they became heavy and limp. They might give you the best bang for the buck, but you get what you pay for.

spend a little more and buy Wilson US Open balls or Dunlop Grand Prix balls. These are premium match balls, but they stand up well to time and torture.

My roommate has been playing for over 20 years, myself only about two years and we've gone through virtually every brand of balls. Avoid Gamma balls.

Buy Gamma overgrip though!

These tennis balls are great. I purchased them because they are presureless and work great in my tennis ball machine.

i was trying to save and that's what i got cheap made balls!! i have never seen anything like it before! even the cheap ones at walmart survives longer than these balls.
bottom line if you wanna use it for your dog then go ahead if not they are not for tennis!!!!

These balls are horrible, they don't bounce like regular balls, worse yet once they come up from the ground it does not come up straight, it goes to the sides most of the time.

To be honest we don't use these balls for tennis. However, we have a huge Labradoodle and she can never get enough of the retrieving. These tennis balls hold up to her never ending abuse. We lose them (teenage son with an arm like a rocket)before she kills them. She dunks them in water, slobbers on them, covers them in mud, and chews on them. They can still bounce over her head.

There isn't much to write about these balls, they are average quality, the bucket is nice to have and it was a good value. Nothing outstanding or poor quality to write about, due to the "lightning deal" I'm giving this 4 stars instead of if I paid more then I would have given it 3.

I purchased 2 buckets for my tennis ball machine. They are no longer firm after 2 hours of use. Other brands used in the same machine are still firm. Price differential does not support better return for the cost of these balls.
