I was aware of your competition, and have been for several years…in fact, I should have made this purchase a few years back when my kids were younger. I became aware of the QM-1 through references on the Tennis Warehouse forums and then doing follow-up on the web. Glad I found you. I like your product and your price better.
My son has played #1 for a very good NAIA college team the past two years, and will be a junior this year. Between a very good freshman coming in this next season, ITA summer circuit, and his desire to win ITAs in the Fall he’s trying to up his game and conditioning this summer. I just purchased a good, used Silent Partner ball machine, and the intent is that he will use the ball machine and the QM-1/camera every day for a few hours to both practice and analyze his strokes. I’m also encouraging him to video his practice matches this summer, as obviously that will provide feedback on his shot selection and court positioning.
I plan on using it for myself as well. I’m a 4.0, 51, played HS and some college, and participate in annual USTA League play. I’m out about once a week in the winter (mainly doubs, and can be 3.5 hours at a time), and in the summer I hit with my son several nights a week, with some singles and doubs on the weekends. Over the years the paid lessons have all gone towards my kids, so the QM-1 will be my way of hopefully improving my own game a bit! I’ve just expanded my personal stringing into a small business for our tennis community, so there may be some good opportunities for me to promote your product…especially as people see me with it.
I’m the Heads coach of the Boys Tennis at Morton High School in Berwyn, Chicago Il. I love the video and only wish I was able to attend that exhibition of some of the drills that they use. Is there any way you could send me any extra learning tools that you may have received during that exhibition? My team is from a low income town and they only have the parks to play in or when the weather breaks. Its usually cold in Chicago until our first match. I’m doing a lot of online searches and would love the extra help.
Thank you very much for posting the video

Sorry Angela, I don’t really have anything else. I would suggest contacting your local USPTA division and seeing what resources they might have. You might even get some volunteers to help out. I know I would if I were there!
I have a Muvi veho and it has much more distortion than your camera. What make and model is your camera?
Thank you,

I was using a GoPro Silver on this one. Didn’t have the MUVI K1 or K2 yet or I would have used it instead. Haven’t used the GoPro in awhile as it’s been too finicky. The MUVI K1 is a great replacement.
