I'm conducting an informal survery. If you had to pick between yellow or green as the color of a tennis ball, which would you choose? I realize that it's probably a mix, but which is it closer to?
Are there formal surveys done on this stuff??

The standard ones that I pick up at any general store are yellow. However Target also has the pink ones that Nordlys linked to.

Yes. A government sponsored survey company is currently calling 100,000 random Americans and asking them this question, alternative which is listed first or "yellow" and "green."

I guess it was necessary to put "informal" in there to let everyone know it wasn't a Formal survey. Good thing he did because i'd hate to respond to one of those formal tennis ball surveys....

I heard it was a triple blind. Not even the test takers know which choice is which!

A green court. I'm just talking about the standard balls you can buy at any store with a sports section. It seems that the general consensus is that they are yellow, which I agree with. However, I've recently been told by many that they were green, and that's why I was curious what the general opinion is.
For green courts, I buy orange balls.
