I didn't want to jack the other person's thread but I have a few comparison questions. I have a pack of the Ashaway Liberty 16 and the Gosen Sheep Micro 17. I'm asking for a comparison because I have to pay to get one of the two strung up on my racquet. Please note the gauge difference between the two.

How do they compare in:
Durability
String movement
Tension maintenance
Power
Maybe control?

Thanks for any feedback.

i have used the goosen and loved it
durability: it has pretty good durability, from what iv hurd, much better than the ashaway
string movement: a little, but easy to fix and dosent really affect your game
Tention maintenance: looses tention prety quickly, so i strung mine a little tighter than i wanted
Power: great power
Also great control

What tension do you normally use and how much did you add to tighten it up?

wha?? a thread about gosen micro? this is rare.... but seriously, i l o v e gosen 17 and i think its the best thing since my ps 85... I admit the durability isn't all that great, however, at 30 bucks for a reel, there isn't any wrong in it.

btw I string in the lower 50's
