I was wondering, do you suggest stringing a racket around 70 or 75 pounds to achieve a 60 pound tension (considering I am getting about a 20 to 30 pound loss in tension)?
A. If you are getting a 20-30 pound loss in tension immediately, then try stringing the racquets 20-30 pounds tighter (according to the gauge on your portable machine) so that it feels “right” for you. There must be reasons that this tension loss is occurring though. Your clamps are probably not “holding” the string properly. There is slippage somewhere, and that might be the first place to look. The tie-offs are also a place where it is easy to lose considerable tension. Make efforts to be diligent. Q. I have noticed that several racquet manufacturers can have almost a .4 ounce weight variance in the posted unstrung weight. Are there any of them more accurate in the manufacturing process to eliminate that problem? A. I am not sure that I can give you an exact answer. There will likely always be some variations, in terms of weight and balance, with off-the-shelf racquets. Your question does raise an important point. Before you purchase a frame, you should pick it up and make certain th
