I strung some Pacific Prime Gut Orange Bullfiber last week for 1st time.
I string a lot of gut with my stringing buisness.Mostly VS and now Wilson Nat. gut, and i know how to handle gut and string it.
The orange bull starting fraying the orange fibers just unraveling it from the coil.
After stringing it , the string looked so frayed with those orange fibers that you would think it has 16 or more hours of hit time on it. I never had a set of gut look so frayed before.After a couple hours of hitting even more frayed where most of the orange is just wearing away.
I'm not sure if it was just that set I received or it is typical of that string. I know how to string gut properly, as I string a lot of it, even years ago back in the 60's when gut did not have the nice coatings like todays do I strung a lot of gut, so I know how to properly string gut.
On a positive note, this string hits very soft, kind of reminds me of their Blue spiral nat. gut that Pacific made at one time. I like the string,has great power, feel and control, just what I like, but the durability seems questionable for now as compared to other quality guts.
Was wondering if anyone else experienced this. Jim
