Can someone share your science, physics or anecdotal based thoughts on customizing rackets in regards to junior (I.e. shorter) sticks?
I’m experimenting for a variety of reasons, but mostly curiosity because I don’t understand what “should” happen when I make changes.
- I have a 25” stick I’m messing around withVery light in every way.
- for a 27” stick, give me any racket within these specs and I’m decently happy with it: 335-345sw, 335g-345g weight (string, gripped), 12.25in-13in balance.
for the 27” stick, once in that range, I’ll just play test based on feel from there, but use recoil weight, mgri, polarization calculations as a guide in what I call the refinement stage.
So a few specific questions:
- does the calculation for polarization depend on racket length? If im trying to make the short racket more polarized, how do I calculate and compare to the standard length spec I already know I like?
- do I need to think of the balance point range different to accommodate that the racket is shorter? What’s the best way to convert that?
- any other major considerations or links to calculators where you can adjust length of racket as needed?
