Like many of you, I have been trying to find the ideal gut/poly hybrid setup. I use Pacific Natural Gut 16g in all my mains, and 17g poly in all my crosses.
My best performer so far has been Tour Bite. Great combo of power and spin. The problem is that it doesn't last very long. The next best setup, and my current string, has been Big Hitter Blue Rough. I love this setup, but the BHBR just saws right through the gut--far more quickly than anything else I've tried.
The best lasting setup I've had has been with CoFocus. That string just lasts and lasts, but I would like more power and spin than it provides.
I've also tried Cyclone, Hepta-Hex, Hurricane Feel, RPM Blast, and Lux 4g.
I have some Kirshenbaum Pro Line II on the way.
So what cross will perform like Tour Bite (or BHBR) that won't die fast or saw the gut mains?
(I also tried a full bed of BHBR and love that way that plays, but it is a little harsh for my ailing wrist. I'm not married to the idea of gut if I can get a high-performing full bed setup that is arm/wrist friendly.)
Thanks for any input.
