    Stringing Wilson Pro Staff 97LS 2-piece

    First time stringing this particular racquet. According to Wilson's instructions for stringing: If one-piece stringing the x's tie off at 9T which would tie off on a main. If stringing 2-piece the x's tie off at 10T which would have it tied off on a cross string. I will be stringing 2-piece. Can...

    Prince Premier 105 ESP frame question

    Does anyone play with this racquet. If so I'd like to see a picture of the inside of the upper frame head. The reason I ask is that I just picked up one as a backup for my wife. Bought it new on the Bay. It appears that there are 2 frame pillars missing at the head. I didn't notice until I went...

    Gamma 6004 tensioner gripper problem

    The gripper on the tension head has two metal pieces that hold the string when pulling tension. One of these has come off. It appears that they are just glued on. Is there anyone who can verify this and also recommend a proper glue to reattach it?

    Stringing 2015 Babolat PD

    Can anyone tell me the recommended tie-offs for the new 2015 Pure Drive. (Stringing 2-piece). I didn't realize until I started stringing it that the pattern had changed. PD's used to skip hole 8 at head and throat but the 2015 skips 7,9. I ended up tying off the mains at 6T which I think is the...

    Gamma 6004 frame support broke

    Stringing up a racquet today. Midway through the mains a heard a "snap". Sounded like the string had snapped. Turns out it it was the 6 o'clock frame support that had broken... http://i1172.photobucket.com/albums/r567/phillips661/IMG_0001-1.jpg Don't have any idea why. Wasn't overtightened...

    Prince Ozone 1 main tie-offs

    I just had someone drop off a Prince Ozone 1 racquet for stringing. Before cutting out the strings I noticed that whoever had strung it last used a little piece of scrap string in each of the main tie-offs, apparently to bulk up the knot a little? The scrap string was across the grommet hole and...

    Prince EXO3 Blue 2010 vs 2011 model

    Can anyone tell me if there is any signifigant differences in the EXO3 Blue 2011 and 2010 models (aside from paint scheme)? I just purchased a 2010 for my wife as it was quite a bit cheaper than newest model. Specs look similar from what I can see.

    String "shelf life"

    Does anyone know the average shelf life of string. The reason I ask is that I used to always buy string on an as-needed basis. Since I started stringing for several people I keep keep several sets in stock. Some I've had at least a year or more. I have many half sets of both polys and synthetics...

    Lock-out tension vs drop weight tension

    After recently switching from a Klippermate drop-weight to a Gamma 6004 lockout I was curious as to whether I am producing the same results with regards to tension. In another post somewhere I stated that with the lock-out I am getting results that are a couple lbs higher than the drop-weight...

    Another GAMMA 6004 question...

    Please forgive my numerous questions on the 6004 but I am trying to learn all the ins and outs of the machine in a short period of time and I get the most help here...My question has to do with the center mounts and something I noticed on the last racquet I strung. I use care when mounting to...

    GAMMA 6004 tensioner question

    Just purchased a Gamma 6004 as an upgrade to my old table top. I've been stringing/restringing a couple of my own racquets with it over the last couple days just to get familiar with it before I start to string for others again. It's a great machine and I love it so far. Anyway, simple...

    frame rounded with synth/poly string job

    I recently strung my Babolat Pure Drive GT with Gamma TNT mains @ 59lbs and Luxilon Superpoly @52lbs. I have played with it for a couple weeks and like the setup. I noticed yesterday though that compared to my other racquet (identical except strung with all Gamma TNT) that the frame was (very)...

    Luxilon crosses with hybrid string job

    I am thinking about hybrid stringing my Babolat Pure Drive GT using Luxilon in the crosses and Gosen OG sheep for mains. I know its more common to use the poly in the mains but I'd like to try it the other way around. Any opinions on this? Also, I usually string my racquet at 59lbs. What tension...

    Parnell Knot or Double half-hitch

    Is there any advantage in one over the other on the finishing knots. I know the Parnell knot is a little less cumbersome but other than that is there really a difference?

    Prince Neos 1500 or Gamma 6004

    I am upgrading to a new stringer from my current drop-weight tabletop and have narrowed it down to these 2. (Prince Neos 1500 and Gamma 6004). Can anyone give feedback on one or the other or both? I only know what I have read in various reviews but would like to get a few more opinions as far as...
