Biomimetic 200 Review- Question for Troy

[CCH4TENNIS]

Hi Troy

In your review of the Biomimetic 200, you said

"Troy "I felt like the 4D version had a little better plow through and torsional stability. I would add a leather grip (plus overgrip), and add some lead tape to the 3 and 9 o'clock positions of the hoop.""

Q. How much lead tape would you add ?

Thank you

CCH4TENNIS,

I am estimating that I would need roughly 4, 4" strips of 1/4" lead tape at the 3 and 9 o'clock positions. My main goal would be to increase the swingweight up to 330-335 (strung), and I prefer to add the weight at 3 and 9 o'clock for increased torsional stability, as opposed to adding it at 12 o'clock.
