I have two racquets, both strung, both have different strings in them, both weigh 296g (with strings), but balances are different. 1 racquet is 4.5 pts HL and one is 3.56 pts HL. I have a third racquet without strings and that one weights 287g and is 7.65 HL.
First I added lead tape at 10cm's on the handles to bring the racquets back to 7pts HL. One racquet now weighs 299g and the other one weighs 306g.
So now I wanted to add lead tape to 3&9 and then counter balance back to 7pts HL.
I took the heavier racquet (306g) and added 3g of lead tape at 3&9. The center of that tape is at 16.3cm, so I then added 3g of lead tape at 16.3cm's from the butt to counter-balance it. It didn't go back to my 7pts HL setup. I would have to add another 4g at the 16.3cm mark to get it back to 7pts HL.
I thought you are supposed to add the same amount of lead tape on the handle the same distance the middle of the tape is on 3&9. It doesn't seem to be working though.
Does this make sense? If not, how do I fix it?
