Hi all,
I'm looking for a low-powered shaped (or rough) poly with good tension maintenance. Particularly one that gives excellent ball bite.
Some background: I used a full bed of Völkl Cyclone or MSV Focus Hex over many years. At some point, I switched to Kirschbaum Max Power in the crosses for reduced string friction and better durability, which has worked very well so far. For me, this set-up provides a very good blend of control, spin and longevity.
However, as I had become used to playing with a full bed of shaped polys, I'm now sometimes missing the extra ball bite. My current shaped/round hybrid set-up feels noticeably smoother. I feel like the stringbed doesn't grab the ball as well as I wish it would.
Any suggestions? I'd like to keep Kirschbaum Max Power in the crosses, but hoping to find an alternative string for the mains.
Thanks in advance for any ideas!
