Hey, Meaghan ... thanks for the comments ... yes, please let us know how you like the M2 ... I see that you're playing with strings at the lower end of the tension range ... how do you feel the lower tension plays ... don't you have control difficulties with such low string tensions ... please comment, thanks ...
Hi Dave , no not at all, infact i feel i have better control as I get more spin.
Ive had 4hrs in with my Alu and ive made about 10 unforced errors.
I recently changed from 55lbs which was fine but thro a rcommendation I tried 45 and I was comfortable from the off, whereas I usually like a settling in period. So maybe I have always liked that tension, I just didnt know it had dropped that far??
Most important to me is the feel off the stings, a grippy feel. Some like a tight boardy crisp feel but I find control difficult with those tensions as I feel the ball just bounces off the strings. Also as an all courter/ S&V I love getting to the net and the softer tension adds to my touch shot.
I also have extreme grips on both sides so the lower tensions and spin i can generate with full westerns make it possible for me to play the aggressive game I like.
I always kinda knew i liked lower tensions as I seemed to play better when the strings had gone off completely, obviously there are control issues then, so with new strings at low tensions I get the best of both worlds.
Im trying the polystar today so Im looking foreward to that at these tensions.
Davydenko had it about 40lbs so why not !!
