It makes the tuning process simpler and gives you a wider pitch range. You can experiment with different tensions to find the sound that suits your playing style. As for maintenance, keep the head away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth after each use to remove any dust or sweat.

If you notice any signs of wear or tear, it might be time to replace the head to keep your drum sounding its best.
