one other thing to consider is your personal expectations/preferences out of a string...if you crave that ALU feel and prefer 2 GREAT hours and don’t mind the price then that is the string for you. Also depends on how hard you hit; hard hitters like
@J011yroger and it’s gone in 45 mins but
@sureshs could probably play 10+ hours with it before it loses its resiliency. That’s the main problem with poly going dead. Dead strings destroy your arm. Spoken from arm destroyed experience. Hitting clean may not be that hurtful but once those shanks start occurring, it can be quite painful. It’s gotten so bad that whenever my opponent shanks, I shudder/flinch in pain.
