Where do I find the kind of tennis balls that you put on a walker? (more)?

My Dad is using a walker, and the tennis balls on the non-wheeled legs are wearing out. I thought someone once told me you can get 'pre-punctured' tennis balls, but where? If not, just how do you puncture a tennis ball?

The previous poster is correct, but he doesn't give much help in the "puncturing" techniques.

Any cheap tennis ball will do. Used ones that don't have much bounce are great.

When cutting or puncturing the tennis ball, make sure that the tennis ball is stationary (and don't do this by getting someone else to hold it). The best thing you can do is use a vise attached to a work bench. Then use a utility knife (with only a small part of the blade protruding) or an ice pick to STAB the tennis ball. (try not to enjoy it too much as this may suggest some sort of psychiatric aggression towards the game of tennis.)

Once you've made the initial puncture, it's fairly easy to work in a big enough groove so that it will fit on the walker.

Be careful and good luck!

any tennis ball will do. walmart sells many kinds, get the cheapest. Cut a small slit using a razor knife or blade and insert.

You cut a slit (Or more effectively an X shape) with a sharp knife. an X-Acto or a sharp kitchen knife both work well.
