Default Have you seen the price of Duralast?

Reels went from $170 to $49 at TW!

That's a steal.

Actually a few cents cheaper per 40' if you buy 9+ sets than the reel. Fire sale on a not so great string.

But if you measure out your strings perfectly (especially if you use smaller frames), then it will be the other way around for a reel.

All the hardcore Nadal wannabes will be happy.

All the realists will just shrug and go back to natural gut, better polys, or good synthetics/multis.
