Head Hawk Touch vs. Head Lynx

[chicubs]

Can anyone comment on the differences in power, comfort, control and touch between Head Hawk Touch and Head Lynx string?

Looking to string up a pair of Head G360 Extreme Pros. Looking for something comfortable without too much power. The Extreme already has plentiful power.

Head Hawk Touch is a good string if what you're looking for is maximum control, though some people think there are better & cheaper alternatives. It feels more dead than Lynx, and I'd say very low-powered compared to many co-poly strings out there, with the exception of Lux 4G, maybe. If you're looking for more responsiveness out of the string bed, Lynx is the better option. If you are going for the HH Touch, I'd suggest to string it lower than your usual setup. In a tweener frame like Extreme, I'd go as low as #48-50 lbs.

Yes. Different feel though with the edges. Personally, I've been playing with both for a while. I like Lynx fresh better but after a couple sessions Head Hawk Touch is more consistent and Lynx sprays a bit.
