Should You Copy Your Old Tension Into a New Racquet?
When head size and pattern change, a familiar number does not create a familiar string bed.
Player overview
With a different frame size or pattern density, the same reference tension can produce different deflection and launch angle.
Measurement guide
- Compare head size, pattern, and recommended range between the old and new racquets.
- For the first job, keep the familiar string material and gauge so you can isolate the frame change.
- After 2 sessions, make a small adjustment at the next job based on depth, spin, and impact feel.
Latest measurement
The first tension in a new racquet begins a comparison; it is not a copy of the old number.
