I don't do it because my racket is already heavy enough.

i add lead to my radicals in the handle and some at 3 and 9 for some more stability.

I think I'm going to experiment with some at 3 and 9 and see how that feels.

3 and 9 adds stability to my apd+, put some in the throat to balance it out

3 gms at 3 and 9 for my RDS 001, more stable.

at 2,10 to bring the sweetspot a little higher. (its 11-12 HL, so the SS is a bit towards the throat)
also 3,9 for more stability.
the combo gives me more ploughthru, and more power on serves.

Pls specify your racket so people who use the same can give you ideas.
Do you find any strokes that are weak, due to the racket, not you.
etc etc

I have a Prince O3 Tour MP, and I'm looking for more power on my serve, and forehand.

i suggest you put the racquet name in the title of the thread so users of that rack answer. Just like there is a thread named "PS 6.0 95 lead customization".

I have a wilson ksix-one team and added 10g to 3 & 9 o'clock and 10g to the lower handle. mostly because i felt like i needed more heft for serve returns and volleys.
