    A micro fiber one. You can buy one for pretty cheap at a autoparts store or in the auto section of a store like target or walmart

    microfiber towels are about the standard now for cleaning.

    Also try the forum search feature, there are several threads about towels.

    and they all recommend microfiber towels.

    I am currently using 2 microfiber towels from Walmart but it seams that after 3 to 4 games it is soaked ND dirty. Thinking I need to get more towels.

    Yep. Microfiber. I wash mine every 1/2 season or so. I use a golf towel. I like the clip, which I clip onto my belt loop. I don't like digging for towels during our league, and since my towel is clipped onto my belt loop, it's easy to grab.

    LOL. Nobody can see the clip. I drape the towel over it.

    Yup, mircofiber is the way to go it seems.
    I typically get mine from an autostore pick up 6 for about $5.

    I have a few old school terry cloth towels from tournaments in the 80's that my dad had. I also have the large Hammer brand loomed towels, red/black black widow and orange/black hammer, both are thick and can be folded multiple times. Those two I use mostly during league/practice. I don't really like the thin microfiber towels.

    Personal preference
