Just scored a Phantom 100X 305 off the 'Bay. Specs are as follows:
- String: full bed Hyper G 16 @ 53lbs
- Strung Weight: 343g (synthetic base grip, Prince Resi Pro overgrip)
- Strung Balance: 8pts HL
- Swing Weight: 345 (per Briffidi SW1)
- Twist Weight: 14.3
- Lead: 9g total -- 3 at 9&3, 3 at 12
For those who've played this frame: does it really need this much lead to be effective for you? What string plays best for you? (I usually like a crisp poly in a flexy frame)
I'm coming from VC95's and VCP 97's, with similar static weights, but less lead and lighter SW, usually 318-328. I'm 39, decently fit, 3.5/4.0, OHBH, semi-w FH. Looking for more error margin, easier defending, higher launch angle, while retaining nice flex and feedback ...thus trying the 100X 305.
Any input here is much appreciated. Thank you!
