Plushness and adding weight to a 18x20 Head Prestige

[GSorach]

Will adding weight to a head prestige 18x20 hoop alter the plushness or feel? So far I am not feeling it.

Adding lead should not impact the frame characteristics like feel or plushness. It will alter the balance depending on where you add it.

I think that plushness is more a function of flexibility. Opposite of crispness that you find on stiffer racquets.

I added 4 grams of lead distributed around the hoop of my Auxetic Prestige Pro (98", 18x20). It made the racquet feel like it was foam filled as opposed to hollow, which it is in reality.
