Hey PP, yeah definitely worth a try if you have a pack lying around. Really doesn't sound like the kind of string I would personally enjoy though, from what little I have read. I have played with regular Head Hawk and that is a good string. But Touch is a very different string apparently.Yeah man, I am so used to RS Lyon that I never think of the weight of other strings. Quite honestly it does make it a difference when it’s 10 SW points, like you are saying. The problem for me is the Blade is so new that I don’t notice that stuff yet. Something to keep in mind. You are right, RS and a dampener is 30 SW points, so thats what I am used to.
A new string adding 10 SW points is indeed significant. Personally, I am not that impressed with HHT after my first session with it. I will give it another shot, but RS Lyon plays much better for me at least in the Blade. If I knew HHT added that much SW I probably would not have tried it out. Oh well I had the pack sitting around so it was worth a shot.
I haven't moved on from RS in years now. I always find myself back to it after trying all these new strings. Feels right at home. And 10 points swingweight is definitely significant. I am at the usual low to mid 330s just like you and jumping 10 points would start showing in my game. Even if I adjusted, I would start getting late on every ball and with a different string in there, I would be very unconfident.
I see that you are loving the Blade and getting dialed in. Awesome. I wanted to demo but had an unfortunate accident a couple of weeks back. Sob story: twisted my knee shrugged it off at that time but pain wouldn't go away even after a few days. Later, after a doc visit and getting MRI scan, it turned out to be torn meniscus. Have an arthroscopic meniscal repair surgery scheduled for next month. PT will be 8 weeks after that and so tennis is out for next 3-4months. Pretty bummed about it. Anway, will be vicariously living through you guys now until I feel bummed out enough to just not log in till I am back on the court.
