A grab bag of legacy specs
Casey Maus of Star Stringing came across a small stack of notes while cleaning up after the 2009 BNP Paribas Open at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden. These are measurements that he and David Mindell have taken over the years of various clients whose racquets struck their fancy for one reason or another. Thanks to Casey and David for sharing these tantilizing tidbits with me.
