Hybrid Nat. Gut and BB ALU

[jmk2888]

Currently I'm on a Full Poly setup (ALU BB) @ 57lbs on my Yonnex RDX-500 Mid+.

I'm 3.5 player that hits very Flat and I do not break often at all, however I hate when my string move around that's why I'm using ALU BB.

I'm starting to develop a pain in my elbow that I never had before, and I am NOT getting the feel when I hit the ball.

I'm thinking using a Hybrid set-up ALU BB in the Mains @ 58lbs and KLIP Legend Natural Gut 15L String in the Crosses @ 60lbs.

How do think this this set-up will work out ?

I'm open for other options, I'm basically looking for a String set-up that will be durable, strings not to move around, better feel for the ball, easy on my arm and cheap in Price (Nat. Gut) with good playability.

Any help is greatly appreciate.

A hybrid would be a good way to go, but if you have a spare frame you might want to string it up with something softer than a poly hybrid even to give your arm a rest for a while.

You could try the Yonex 850 Pro for a soft alternative that doesn't move around a lot. It will move, but not like most multis. It also has a crisp softness so it's not overly springy like many multis. Whatever you do, listen to the pain in your arm. Don't make it worse, or you might find yourself needing a long layoff to heal.

Thanks for the advice but I alreaady tried Yones 850, it was too soft for me, it felt kinda of springy.

Anyone know how to care for Nat. Gut ?

I'm going to put it on the crosses with ALU BB on the Main.

Two discussions about natural gut at the same time and right next to each other. Haha if you didn't notice the other one is mine, since you bumped yours twice.

If you're having trouble with your arm, dump the poly. Learn to play with a softer string.

Thanks for the replies.

I'm thinking trying a full gut set then if I break them in a couple of hours then I 'll hybrid them.

Sound good to anyone?
