For recital and concert tunings I do pound. This is of course after I have set the pin. I am sure that no one out there is able to set every single pin in the block so that it will not move under heavy playing, by some of our over exuberant pianists, without pounding at least a couple of times. I feel that to be sure that I have set correctly, a few hard hits does no harm, and reassures me that the tuning will be stable through the entire performance.
