- I've been to 2 Wilson demos at a local tennis center and two Prince demos
- at a local country club. All four had at least 5 different drills lasting
- 10 to 15 minutes long. They want you to DEMO their RACKETS and of cource
- have fun. Everyone participating has a chance to win hats, t-shirts, wrist
- bands and rackets. IMPORTANT----> I just remembered something...Last week
- I could have won a Prince racket If I had had a P on the strings of my
- racket. Our tennis organization had our annual meeting at a country club
- and the Prince representative had a bunch of rackets on the court and
- one of the first things he did was look around the crowd (maybe to make
- sure no one had the manufactures' logo on the strings) and then announce
- that he would give away one of the rackets to a person with the logo
- on the strings. Good luck!
- Something to consider is a place to store your watch, wallet etc.
- I go to these events to socialize and most of all have fun. Winning
- prizes is really secondary. Honest!
- Things to avoid...fatty foods and grumpy people :-)
