Penn Pressureless Tennis Balls - Load Up Your Ball Machine With America's No. 1 Make

From their origins in Pennsylvania just over 100 years ago, Penn now top the ranking as America's preferred tennis ball and produce a range of balls for all surfaces, all uses and all pockets.

They've been in the vanguard of improvements to tennis ball playability over the decades, including massive advances in felt durability due to an innovative combining of man-made fibers and New Zealand wool during the 1960s. The world's first fluorescent tennis ball for better visibility also first saw the light of day from Penn's Research & Development team in this decade.

The 1990s was an exciting decade for Penn in that their tennis balls became the official ball of the United States Professional Tennis Association (USPTA), and more importantly for tennis coaches and tennis ball machine owners, they introduced the first titanium pressureless tennis ball.

The Penn Pressureless 48 Ball Bucket is the most economical way of stocking your Ball Machine Hopper with Penn balls. These balls have high quality felt for increased durability, and unlike pressurized tennis balls should play better as they age and not lose any of their bounce.

They're manufactured to exacting uniformity standards and will give a predictable delivery when shot from your ball machine. Penn balls will perform for the most part like pressurized balls, so could be used in matches just shy of tournament standard.

Like all pressureless tennis balls, you'll probably notice the difference most if you hit the ball outside your tennis racquet's 'sweet spot' or on the frame. They tend to feel heavier than their true weight at these times and may be slightly jarring, though they're actually about the same weight as a 'normal' ball.

Apart from the Bucket size, you can order your Penn Practice tennis balls in batches of 12 or 18 balls in a handy mesh bag for easy carrying. Even in these lower quantities, they're still an economic alternative to pressurized tennis balls.

What might sway you towards Penn Tennis Balls over other makes is their sound environmental policy. Every year, millions of tennis balls end up in land-fill sites around the world due to a lack of resolution and ingenuity in how to best dispose of them.

Penn maximize recycling at all stages of the manufacturing process of their tennis balls and packaging. Some other by-products of construction are put to good use as rubberized asphalt in highway building.

Penn tennis balls past their best but still completely usable are given away to schools and clubs, to extend the life of the balls and to help reduce costs where pristine tennis balls are not an absolute requirement. When these wear beyond tennis use, many end their lives as tennis ball chair glides.

If your ball machine feeds pressurized tennis balls ok, you might like to consider some other economical alternatives from Penn - Penn Practice XXX and Penn Practice Coach balls. They're perfectly playable tennis balls but have slight visual imperfections that mean they can't be used as premium Penn products.

They're available at a sizeable discount making them even cheaper than pressureless balls, but of course they're unlikely to last as long unless you own a ball saving device for re-pressurizing them.

Also Penn Pink tennis balls, though not an ideal option for tennis ball machines, are an excellent alternative for match play as they highlight (and financially help) Pink Ribbon Breast Cancer Research Charities.
