Pro Hurricane Tour 17 vs RPM Blast 17

[Dennis Chan]

I use poly as mains @60 lbs with cheap natural gut as crosses @58 lbs. In this setup how are Pro Hurricane Tour 17 and RPM Blast 17 compared?

Feel (stiffness/softness)?
Power?
Control?
Tension maintenance?
Durability?
Spin?

Thanks in advance.

I use full poly, normally Pro Hurricane 17 (not tour) and have started using RPM 17... I find they are almost identical, RPM is a slightly softer and slight more powerful... thats it.

very similar strings, rpm is newer so maybe has some new technologies. i think rpm plays softer then PHT and has the same/more spin power. rpm might have slightly worse tension matience though...saying that i used to play with PHT and have switched to rpm blast and although they are similar i def prefer RPM
