Stringing Wilson Pro Staff 97LS 2-piece

First time stringing this particular racquet. According to Wilson's instructions for stringing: If one-piece stringing the x's tie off at 9T which would tie off on a main. If stringing 2-piece the x's tie off at 10T which would have it tied off on a cross string. I will be stringing 2-piece. Can anyone verify the 10T tie-off?

I've strung Wilson 97LS so many times, everytime 2 piece, but couldnt recall the tie-off on which hole haha.
Just couldn't be bothered, to me, I just thread through the largest hole avail & that should be the tie-off.
It should be fairly easy to find out, just bring your eye down to the grommet holes at the throat.
 
Thanks Jim. Your info makes more since as it has the x's tie off at 9T for both one and two piece. Wilsons site has the x's tie off different for one and two piece. Where did you get your info from?

I am a member of the USRSA.
They publish their "Digest" that has racquet patterns listed and is sent to members, and is also online.
It's a great org. to join, has many benefits, and gives credibility to the craft.

I'm not subscribed to the USRSA, but having the same 9T tie-off in both 1-piece and 2-piece makes a whole lot more sense. I've noticed that Wilson's own stringing instructions on their website are often rubbish.
