Six One Team customization

 Six One Team (SOT) was my first racquet that I bought after using Ultra 95 from early 90s. Have not customized it until 2019. It is a light but balanced racquet, so I thought it may not need customization. But, there was something missing from this racquet, it is missing stability and plow through, plus a small sweetspot. Tried leather grip but grip was too big. Add lead on 3 and 9 but loss of power. Then, moved the lead to 12 (11 to 1) around 3grams (6 inches * 2). Tried it yesterday, plow and stability was better.

PS97 and AG300 (and additional power)

 Had two tennis sessions in the past 2 weeks: all doubles games and indoor. The 1st week using PS97 and then AG300. Less playing with CX due to sore pinky from leather grips (culprit maybe) on AG300. There was a slight change when I was playing AG300. The week before when playing with PS97, teammates mentioned that my strokes could have more power and it made me think, this PS97 should have more power than my regular CX. I was feeling slugish when using the PS, several of my overheads hit the net. 

So, watched videos of Patrick Mouratoglu, and one of his advice is to add power from your leg by going forward. I tried that advice combined with AG300 current setup (rubber band). The result were better from my perspective, more power and more control even from AG300. The current AG300 set up is lead at 3 and 9, syn grip, overgrip, rubber band dampener.

New balls

 My past two sessions were doubles, using new balls, and using CX 200 Tour: the 16x19 on indoor court and 18x20 on outdoor court. Total of 3 wins and 2 loss, thats is not bad. Tried also the AG300 but felt too bouncy, less control. Using the CX 200T esp. the balls rarely goes far, mostly dips on the service line. Also not using AG300 because gave my sore pinky. Will also try the Head RadOS 107 after changing the grip to synthetic.
