Hello -
With racquets that use pallets (e.g. older Head racquets, Tecnifibre Ltd etc.) --> how is it that different manufacturers use different grips and still end up with the correct handle circumference?
For example:
1. Tecnifibre TFight Limited 2013 model uses a Tecnifibre leather grip of thickness 1.5mm.
2. Tecnifibre Tfight 315 DC Ltd model uses the Tecnifibre Xtra Feel synthetic grip, presumably 1.9mm thick.
3. Older Head racquets used the Head Calfskin leather grip, which I think was 1.2mm thick.
All of these presumably use (the same) pallets. If I play grip size 3 in each of these, would the final handle circumference not be substantially different between each of these - more than 1 full grip size between #1 and #3, and between half and 1 full grip size between #1/#2 and #2/#3?
Thoughts?
