Hi all, I was hoping to receive some advice on what to work on to capitalize on my strengths during matches and what style of tennis I should play. My biggest strength is my speed, I can reach a lot of balls that would normally be winners, whether it is a drop shot or a fast ball to the other...

Oh hey that actually sounds like it'll do the trick! The vast majority of my unforced errors are long balls and I don't hit the net too often. Why didn't I think of that haha. Thanks!

Interesting, I'll definitely try it out. I'm not sure I feel a difference in dwell time, but I definitely feel less "grip/bite" on the ball. Kinda sad that I don't see the fuzz ripping off anymore since I changed from kevlar but I heard textured polys have worse playability duration than round...

My number 1 criteria for strings is tension maintenance / playability duration so gut was definitely on my radar. I tried full gut and full Kevlar before (40lbs), and loved Kevlar (but elbow issues). Gut was a bit too lively and mushy. To be fair I tried gut on a completely different racket...

A week or so! Yeah I'll definitely try it out for a few more weeks before spending more money to change strings etc

Im just slightly concerned about elbow issues again by increased tension..

I have luxilon 4g soft at 51/49lbs on a Yonex vcore pro 97. I used to use Kevlar / gut hybrid but changed to poly bc of elbow issues (all gone now!) So the biggest difference was how much more free power I'm getting. I like the 4G S, especially on my serves and normal rallying. But, the...

Thanks! That was actually number 2 on my list :P

My first criteria for choosing strings is playability duration and then spin. This criteria led me to a full bed of Ashaway Kevlar 18g @40lbs in terms of feel and spin; I love seeing the fuzz in the air after ripping a forehand. But yeah had wrist and elbow discomfort and cut it out. Went back...

Interesting to say the VCORE plays stiff when it has a similar RA to your Angells! Thanks for the repsonse :)

Could you compare Pro 100p and VCORE Pro 97 (310)?? Is the prince a lot more underpowered?

So..I tried the Phantom 100 with Asahaway Kevlar 18 mains (42lbs) / Luxilon Gut (52lbs) and I'm experiencing slgiht wrist and elbow discomfort for a couple hours after I hit. Nothing major, but this is the string setup I use in my modified Pure Strike 16x19 (basically weighted handle ~.5oz)...
