Poly tension loss when strung low

[steve s]

Have been use a Multi, PPC, for the last few year, I am giving a poly try. I strung up Polyfibre TCS 1.25 at 39, with Polyfibre sys gut 1.25 at 42.

I played about 10 hours after stringing. It felt like hitting with a piece of wood. Hit about 5 minutes, and got another stick. I will give it 48 hours, to see if tension loss will soften it.

Has anyone measure tension loss of a poly at say 60 lb vs 39 lb.

Strings are now playable after a few days in the bag. No idea what the tension loss was. String does not need to move back into place between points.

I hit a rather flat forehand, getting a little more spin with these string vs a 1.30 Multi.

Arm feels good after 1 1/2 hours of singles.
