Gamma Sports Pressureless Tennis Balls Box - Ideal for Practice, Teaching, and Training with High-Visbility Felt - Indoor and Outdoor Court Play - 48 and 75 Pack Sizes

I take my son out 2-3 times a week to practice tennis and these balls are perfect. I also got a hopper for easy storage and transport. A little dip in quality compared to other practice balls, although the price is right and good for my use.

My dogs absolutely love chasing tennis balls. I usually buy the smaller net bags, so I decided to go all out and get them the giant tub. The balls are great and my dogs love them! Since there are so many, I just toss them when they start to break apart (disclaimer: dogs should not play with damaged tennis balls for safety reasons). They last a relatively long time. They aren't a chew toy, so heavy chewers will destroy them if left to their own devices. But if your dog loves fetch, this is a great way to keep them muzzle-deep in tennis balls.

This tub of tennis balls broke the dog. She's a German Shepard. I got it for her for her first birthday. She's a rather spartan pup, and has a few treasured toys. A plushie here, a chew bone there. Her favorite by far, though, are tennis balls. If you hold the tennis ball, you hold the power. So, her birthday happens, and I pull out this tub, and I pour all the tennis balls into a kiddie pool for her to peruse. Dog locks up. She's staring, completely mesmerized, into the kiddie pool like it's the VOID, and the void is staring back into her, whispering florescent green secrets to her. I broke her trance by throwing them all over the yard. She loves them. There are tennis balls freaking everywhere. They also float, so filling the kiddie pool with water created a new and exciting game, "Bobbing for Tennis Balls". Dogs are the best.

Edit: Review updated June 2022. Details below. ------------------ We have a have a ball machine, Lobster Elite 2, that we use 5-7 days a week. After about 2 months of use, we found the Gamma brand to be the best pressureless option on Amazon for us. When starting with a ball machine, we used our discarded pressurized balls. The problem is they die too quickly, lose their bounce. We searched amazon for pressureless balls, and bought the 3 most popular brands. Wilson, Penn and Gamma. WILSON - on our hardcourt they lost their “fur” after only a few week of use. Bounce is still realistic and relatively similar to a normal ball. Maybe they hold up better on another court then ours. PENN - out of the box the bounce just isn’t anywhere close to a normal match ball. Not realistic for serious practice. For a beginner they may be great though, as they more are similar to “green” practice balls. They seem to keep their “fur” much better than the wilsons. The problem Is just that they are too lame to start with. GAMMA - These are the ones we will be reordering. After 2 months of use they still behave like they did when new. They look a bit “beat up” but still have their fur. The bounce is still just a bit short of a normal pressurized ball. In the video we also have some cheap Chinese “Regail” brand bought from China. Do NOT buy these. Bounce is terrible from the start, and 20% of the balls were dead within a week. Pure junk. TRETORN X should be in the comparison, but couldn’t find these on Amazon at the time. EDIT June 2022: We recently bought a 72 pack of Tretorn Micro-X for testing. These are about twice as expensive compared to the others, but also superior in every way. After 3 months of use, they are still in great shape, with a consistent bounce that is similar to the pressurized Penn Championship Extra Duty that we use for matches. Our Gamma balls are now being used mainly by our dogs. For a decent budget-choice, go with Gamma. For superior quality, go with Tretorn Micro X. I’m a 4.5 and my wife is a 3.5. Hope this helps

Great for the dog! He looses them or chews them. I purchased these 4 times in the Bucket of 48. They are not available any longer in the Bucket, which was PERFECT to put them back in when the balls were NOT lost or destroyed. Typical when you get a product you like it becomes unavailable.

I saw some people mention some of their balls weren't in great shape.. our bucket came with all great balls. Same quality as my high school tennis player uses. This bucket is great for her to practice on her own. Go thru the bucket a couple times standing there practicing her serve. It works perfect for this. We play with these and haven't had any issues over this past year.

Our golden lab loves to play ball. This package has the most for the buck and the bucket is great for storage. dump them all at once and watch your pet go crazy! (LOL)

These balls are okay, but there's probably a reason most reviews are by dog owners. We bought some of these and some of the Penn pressure less balls for our ball machine. The Penn balls hold up much better. The felt on these balls started to fuzz up pretty quickly (maybe shooting through ball machine 15-20x?) whereas the Penns have not done this at all. The one benefit to these balls is that if you're hitting at a public court, it's unlikely that anyone else has this brand. So, if you are hitting them all over, it's easy to sort them out from your neighboring court.
