I've read that using a rubberband as a shock absorber adds about 5 pounds too your tension. Right now I use have my racquet strung at 57 pounds an use a rubberband as a shock absorber. I really like the feel of it so I was wondering that if I string it at 62 which would be plus 5 to my 57 that I have now. Would that feel the same as my 57 with a rubberband? Sorry if this sounds confusing?
