    Anyone add lead tape. I feel that without lead its a completly different racket and with leads turns into a weapon more spin, power and bigger sweetspot. I added 8grams at 3 and 9 and 2 grams to 12,also added 5grams to the handle. Total swingweight of 363, and weighs 360 grams.

    Prince Original Graphite ( POG ) Mid and OS versions

    Yep no bump/ind grommetsframe, does it play like newer pogs or worse? Thinking i might upgrade but if it plays the same as the newer pogs theres no point in changeing.

    Prince Original Graphite ( POG ) Mid and OS versions

    My pog os 1977 has a short rectagular handle? Is this an original or fake? Junior racket? Feels quite heavy though but not sure.

    which is more spin friendly, POG OS OR POG MID?

    Jumping into my shots have also helped me tremendously with spin and power cause often id neglect my legs on strokes but now i always remember to get both my feet off the ground or atleast one foot lol

    Hey friend, had the same problem with the pog os, wasnt finding the pop i wanted but after i added lead tape to the hoop 8grams at 3 and 9 3grams at 12 and also 4 grams at the handle, gave me more power spin and stability, just as powerful as a babolat frame now but the feel is just way softer...

    Pro's typical swingweight??

    If you work your forearms like crazy you'll notice that a heavy racket feels light. My pogos is at 355 swingweight and before the forearm exercises it felt like a bat but after grip exercises and forearm exercises ive used before feels light. Of course legs and core/shohlders are most important...

    Andre Agassi-Oversize Racquets For Most Players

    Had the same problem with my pog os. I added 8 grams at 3 and 9 and 2 grams at 12, 6 grams at rhe handle to cohnter balance. makes a huge difference. My stick had a 335 swingweight before now it has a 355 and i can still use it just takes time to get used to. No more twisting and more comftable.

    Heavier rackets generate more power

    My pog os is around 370grams and has a 350+ swingweight, ive done lots of forearm leg and shoulder exercises to wield it and its paid off; it feels like im swinging at 320sw and every other racket feels like a toy. With heavier rackets i feel you can cusp onto the ball better and also, you dont...
