I recently tried a hybrid with poly mains and synthetic gut crosses. It felt surprisingly good. I thought it would limit spin and fly long on me, but I felt solid with it.
It occurred to me that many pros use poly mains with natural gut crosses.
That made me wonder if natural gut is really much better than synthetic when it's just being used in the crosses to help soften the string bed up and maybe give some power.
I know natural gut will hold its tension better and maybe have a little less friction, but would it really offer a noticeable improvement in play?
