Where should I apply lead tape to my racquet?

For added stability and plow-through, apply at 3 and 9 o'clock on the frame. For more power and higher swingweight, apply at 12 o'clock. Start with small amounts (2-4 grams total) and play-test before adding more - small changes feel much bigger than you'd expect.

Will lead tape damage my racquet?

No - properly applied lead tape is safe and widely used by pros. Clean the frame with rubbing alcohol before application for best adhesion, and trim the edges cleanly. To remove, warm gently with a hairdryer and peel off slowly - any residue wipes off with alcohol.

Is lead tape legal in tournament play?

Yes - lead tape is allowed in all ITF-sanctioned play. It's standard practice on the ATP and WTA tours.
