What is the difference between a 16×19 and 18×20 string pattern? I prefer the 18×20 as I can control my shots better but generally speaking with the 16×19 pattern there is more space between string crossings which allow strings to move and stretch more. With all else being equal this means balls tend to launch higher with more spin and more energy with an open string pattern.
