I recently strung with hyper g 1.15 at 46/44 and the tension reading on racquettune was 45. The first 1-2 hours it felt perfect. However, after 2 hours racquettune was showing 40 lbs and it kinda settled between 39-40. I started having trouble controlling the launch angle. My question is if I should string next time using 15% prestretch so I could play around 45 range for a longer period. I don't want to string at higher tension to compensate because it would feel very boardy for the first couple hours.
I know the general opinion about polys is not to prestretch. I assume the total playable time would decrease but I don't care if I have to string at 8 hours mark instead of 10 for example.
Another option would be increasing the gauge while decreasing the tension a bit to compensate instead of prestretching.
What are your opinions?
