    Thanks for the tip!! I should have posted around first before going on a hunt for lead tape. Alas I decided to use athletic and duct tape instead.

    No problem at all..Good to share around.. For my case, I probably added too much lead-tape initially, making the racket sounds "dead". After reducing the weight, now it is about alright. Anyway, I will probably also try athletic & duct tape later as well.

    Cheers!

    Go to any Golf retail shop in malaysia. You should be able to find lead tape meant for gold clubs. It works the same way.:)

    What if I use a 4u and put some lead tape at 12 and 6 for like 2 gms and make it a 3u with legit weight and head heavy ness . Will it not work ? After all head heavy ones have more mass in head and less in shaft/base . Converting 4u to 3u giving some weight seems logical
