what do you mean by "Weight removed and shock absorbent filled to the original specs." ?
Especially "Weight removed"?

The foam filling inside the hairpin excavated, and the difference replaced with a little silicon to restore the lost weight?
 
My TT100Ps were switched to Head Grip/Cap. Weight removed and shock absorbent filled to the original specs. Very comfy Feel for the wrist/arm.


Hi mate, could you tell me how you changed the grip to a head pallet?
The grip shape was exactly the issue I had with it too. I only seem able to use Head tk82.
 
Does sound like wrong grip size (smaller) maybe even shape.
There are custom shops who can make pallets like that. some posters here have done their own from frames such as babolat...
 
Forgot to write that I play with soft strings:

Favorite: gut mains / isospeed professional classic cross
Alternative: multi like Head Velocity or RIP control. I also sometimes play with Hyper G 18 strung at 36/36

I think you should try without poly before ditching the racquet. I've had elbow problems but 100p gives me zero pain. Much better than Yonex ezone at least for me.
 
I'd be adding weight to the 100p as in my opinion the frame is too light.
Yes the current Prince frames are very flexible and comfortable, but not enough mass.
That being said for the wrist I'd demo the Volkl V Sense 10 mp 325g, the pro Kennex Q Plus Tour 325 and (If you can still get them ) s a Yonex DR 98 plus, very stable and comfortable.
 
Still using this racket? I also like the flex of Prince Tour 100 and 100T but control-wise the stringbed is too open and the power is annoyingly low. I tried PP100P and again the power is very low, annoyingly so with serves. How is the power in TT100P compared to those rackets?

YES and I still enjoy this frame a lot. Currently I am trying out different multi strings in 3 frames I have FB Multifeel 17, Velocity 17 and Head FXP Tour 16 all strung at 50lb - I think I enjoy the very muted and low powered feel of FXP Tour, I think it is as arm friendly as Nat Gut. Next on the list is Mantis Comfort Synt.

The TT100P is more powerfull than the PP100P IMO, I did not play 100T.

Cheers, Toby
 
Sorry, that I needed so long to answer. In the handle are lead weights which are replaced by silicone or foam. the head cap is mounted. Together with the gel basis grip everything is brought back to original weight and balance point.
 
Maybe the textrem tour 310 or o3 tour 310 would be the closest but less stiff (tour 310 16*18 and o3 tour 310 thinner frzme, desner main strings 16*19 pattern with port so less crisp but very speeedy)
