Tension adjustment between lockout/crank and constant pull/dropweight?

We must have different books.

@Rabbit, they are essentially the same book. "Technical Tennis" is simply an abridged version of "The Physics and Technology of Tennis". It was released several years afterwards and written in a way that was easier to understand for the average tennis player.

I didn't know you were a Pro. Golfer @Irvin ?

I imagine that a Pro. can feel the clubhead but the issue is whether he feels the difference between the clubs I mentioned to the point where it affects his stroke?

I'm not a pro golfer nor was I ever one, but I did have a 2.8 handicap. SW in golf clubs is very different from the SW of a tennis racket. SW for a golf club is a ratio of the mass distribution at 14" from the butt. All gold clubs in a matched set do not have the same weight. All D2 golf clubs have the same mass distribution but not the same weight, flex, or length.

Well I guess I need that one if it's easier to understand. LOL

Maybe I'll do the same test again with my Star 5 that I did with my Wise which has little or no overpull and see is I still end up with several pound difference.

Bump/reminder.
I expect the tension-gradient in the cross-strings will be even more dramatic if you use the Wise in LO-mode
