Hi Avery

Weigh them just like you would Strike Weights. The set I
just got done with had a range of 1.4 to 1.8. In itself this
translates to about a 2.5 gram difference in touchweight.
But the differences can actually be kind of handy as you can
match them with varying hammer weights to sort of "pre" even
out the strike weights a little.

Cheers
