Trav, do you have the numbers for the Bryan brothers? I know they use SWs in the 360s but at the same time their racquets are supposed to be very maneuverable

I am not sure if those are unstrung specs.
I'm guessing it's unstrung because a SW of 298 would be too low

Greg Raven posted these from the 09 Indian Wells so they should be accurate:

Bryan, B.
Prince O3 Speedport Black
368 Static Wt
31.6 Balance
362 SW
string hole inserts

Bryan, M.
Prince O3 Speedport Black
365 Static Wt
32 Balance
369 SW
string hole inserts

So I get 20,4 for B Bryan and 20,2 for M Bryan

Your calculations were made on the assumption that both play with 27" sticks or longer?

I'm under the impression they both use xl sticks.

Default MgR/I = 20.24 for Babolat Pure Drive Roddick GT Plus

Anyone here know Roddick's specs ?

Can't be the racquet below, though to improve my odds, I'm also going to ask the same question here:

http://tt.tennis-warehouse.com/showthread.php?t=342218

Length: 27.5 inches / 70 cm
Strung Weight: 11.7oz / 332g
Balance: 7pts Head Light
Swingweight: 336

I really have to stop replying to my own posts - but how come I can't edit ??

Anyways, I forgot to change the length to 27.5" from 27" in the spreadsheet so the actual MgR/I on the Babolat Pure Drive Roddick GT Plus should be 20.47 - but still a valid question IMO because I thought he would wield a heavier stick.

I don't think he ever did end up doing SW.

On a side note, I'm thinking of trying out the A rod lead setup on my apd plus to see how it goes.....
