Har-Tru 'Clay' Tennis Courts

The Wood 'N' Racket Farm has four Har-Tru or 'American Clay' Tennis Courts, considered by most tennis players as the most 'player friendly' surface.  This surface of crushed limestone is mined and processed in Virginia by Lee Tennis, the tennis division of Luck Stone, which is headquartered in Goochland, VA.

The compactability of the Har-Tru material allows for a firm surface for a truer bounce of the ball, yet allows a player to slide, avoiding the sudden stop which is so brutal on the body's joints.

The rough, granular Har-Tru material causes the Tennis ball to 'grab', which slows the ball and makes for a more 'hittable' shot resulting in better stroke execution.  The Har-Tru 'Clay' Court is the preferred surface of teaching Pros worldwide.  The green crushed Limestone does not stain clothes like the Red-Clay of Europe.  In this area the courts are playable Spring, Summer, and Fall.
