Exclamation unbelievable breakthrough! the mod to end all mods!

now you have to bear with me on this. we have all gone through the whole how can i be a better tennis player deal. you know, we switch rackets, tweak our tensions, demo some more rackets, cut some more strings, fire our doubles partner, hire a new stringer, take a new class, switch to a new pro, join a different club, move to a new city, quit playing D1 players, turn off the ball machine, etc etc blah blah yea.

then we stumble upon, via various instances and circumstances only known to each of our individual case, the holy grail. the mod! why blow another $79 of our hard earned dollars on something that may or may not win us that next match on court #11 next thursday night when it's windy and we rather head to karaoke after?

right?!

so without further ado, and dont all start sending me thank you emails at the same time (limited inbox space), i have discovered the FINAL mod you will ever need to do.

no, it's no lead, it's not anything like that.

http://www.tennis-warehouse.com/Gamm...MMA-GHTWB.html

the best part? it's dirt cheap!!!!!

just slap this bad baby on your racket, and BAM. instant WIN. now listen up though. you MUST use the entire 15ft to achieve the WIN effect. and you must make sure it covers every, single, nano inch on your racket. failure to do so will render the mod useless. might as well quit. i know what you are thinking. It's Gamma, but this product, as long as you follow the above directions, will give you perfect end result of swingweight-balance-weightbalance-swingbalance-gram-headlight-headheavy-evenbalance-polarized-polarity-self centering-stability-traction control that is pure WIN.

when you all start winning Slams, you know who to thank.

That's the second greatest idea that you have come up with to save money...slot's in right behind stealing someone's racquet.

I've got a roll of bright pink duct tape somewhere. What will that do for me?

Duct tape probably works much better than head guard tape. I mean, duct tape fixes anything and everything, right? If duct tape doesn't fix your problem, you're not using enough.

Blah! Why spend all that money!

Just pick your nose and wipe it on the ball! Your opponent will just bail out. That's even winning without having to play!

I would like to contribute some of my mods.
My first technique :
I found this one very easy to do and helps with swing weight.
Note, this will be quite the expensive mod to do since this requires the drill of all drills. http://www.lowes.com/pd_254115-70-DC...t_avg_rating|1 You cannot do this mod without this model of drill.
Next, you would need to mount the racquet securely on any surface. ( Preferably dirt )
After that, you would need to find/locate 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12 o clock positions on the racquet. IT's best to grab a clock and place it on the stringbed to locate all spots precisely.
Next, mark all the locations with a sharpie.
Then you would want to drill all the way through the whole. Make sure you are able to fit a chopstick inside the whole, all the way through to the other side of the racquet.
Finally, go test out the racquet. By the way, you must cut out the strings prior to playing since this mod requires to do so. Measure the swingweight on a Babolat RDC machine. ( also required to buy ). The swingweight should be substantially lower.
Congratulations.
