I agree, if I were doing this for a living I would not do it. For friends, family and myself, absolutely I would.

I used to play sonic pro as a cross with VS or tonic, I tried the black Boris Becker poly for a while - which was surprisingly good. Now I would say hawk is my favorite. It seems as though it's meant to be a cross hybrid to gut.

If you use a gut hybrid, and don't break string quickly, and are not filthy rich, you would be slightly stupid not to restring your own crosses and preserve a perfect half set of VS gut mains. But that's just my opinion. I don't need it to be validated.

Very nice.

Just may be the dumbest post I have seen outside of fedace's garbage. My guess is you would be scared to cut the crosses out when they go dead? I cycle my rackets this way and have had a half set of gut last for nearly 1 year. I would say for people that string themselves this is quite...

It's a slippery slope, stiffer rackets with open string patterns, requiring stiffer strings. Frequent string changes. Inability to afford good natural gut. Sounds painful. I'll stick with soft low powered frames, string at a lower tension, polarize them, and hit with as much spin as the...

Drop tension Or Gut mains / poly cross And Make your racket more polarized, weight on handle and at 12 o'clock. Gut/Poly at about 55/45 is perfect for an 18/20 95-98" racket.

Hey fedace, is that the red string??a. :confused::confused::confused:

Is that the red string???? :confused: :confused::confused::confused:

Nope. I'd say easily 90% of the top 200 head players use a pro stock racket. They don't all use a PT57a/e, but certainly they use a TGK model of some sort. They would have to be extremely pleased with the weight of a retail stick or just enjoy adding weight to it (making it not very...

You sure? That would be highly unusual.

Bru I like your thinking there!!!

OMG bru put me on that list!

You guys let's sue the, until they give us all rackets that are JUST LIKE FED'S.

5'10" 127 wo wa wi wa :shock:

Is that the red string??? :confused: :confused::confused::confused:

I'm sure on retail one it is, not on the PT167a

Nope just a plain old radical MP 18/20 frame. You can't see through the hole.

Pretty sure all head pro stocks come at a 27.5" hairpin length and are cut down from there.

I have three PT167a's. It's a radical pro stock with the real flex point hole (although you can't see through it). Nothing even similar to an instinct tour xl.

But open patterns mean stiffer strings for longevity, higher tensions for control, and generally lower swing weights stock. You are too old for a players frame, but what does your arm think about that?

My game is extremely predicated on spin. With that said I use an 18/20 95.5" frame. I'm a believer in using strings that are spin friendly, and customizing a racket so it is polarized and head light. I can hit a heavier ball with my PT57a's than with an extreme, or a Wilson S racket (at least...

Maybe a TGK with the retail paint you think?

The plush and soft feel is what makes the pt57a so good. I wanted to make PT280/630's work but there is no room to customize them at all. For that reason I just wait until I can find a beat up 57 and buy it. Same price as a new racket that way.

Yes, if you don't understand how racket weight and balance cause injuries I would suggest not posting in these threads.

Sorry for all the bad information you are getting. The primary cause of your pain is the absurdly light racket you are using, which is also almost even balanced and extended length. Regardless of what string you use this will be your problem. You need to add about one ounce of weight to the...

Just admit you are a racist? #thundervolley

Tell them to go to hell.

Tomic like PJ's and Head brah. Right ?.??! :confused:

Her sucks!!! :confused:
