• S Shark vs TB Soft vs AlU vs 4G

  
  — Authority:
  I finally found my favorite string and that was regular Tour Bite 19g in a hybrid. Love it, but gave me hand tendonitis. Now will try Black Spiky Shark, Tour Bite Soft, 4G, and AlU Power. I think ALU Power is the stiffest of the 4, but like the power and consistency it brings. Any comments of the 4 here? I have been ...

• Need slippery syn gut

  I am trying msv focus hex in the mains with head pps crosses. I noticed that the mains are crooked and need to be straightened which tells me they arent snapping back due to the pps not being slippery enough. Any cheap syn gut that would be more slippery?

• Could some strings behave differently as crosses than as mains?

  
  — Authority:
  So Im using a full bed of Solinco Tour Bite 18 in my Prestige Classic right now. Im getting good spin. Just looking at the Tour Bite string, though, I feel like as a cross it provides very little spin. I mean, just look at it: the corners probably dont grab ball when theyre vertical. I feel like the ALU Rough, ...
