Stiff red strings

Kirschbaum Pro-Line II 17g red. I'm not sure if I'd call it "stiff", specifically, but it's definitely not soft. Very low power, not much spin for a poly, it's sort of a wierd string. Not my speed, but it can be "stiff" to some people. It falls into your category.

yes kirschbaum is the cherry company. i would agree that the pro line II strings are a bit weird. i used the 16's for like 3 months and they felt great but when i pre stretched some 17's they lost tension in about a weak. right now, PHT rocks my boat.

is the gamma synthetic gut stiff?
and tokyo punk..iono know girls like stiff strings..haha

at the price TW gets for it try a couple sets and cut em out if you don't like it....I am pretty fussy and I think it plays fine.

Pretty hard to mess up how the SRQ500 plays tho, it is a great old frame.

I was told that REDCODE is real He-man stuff and is very difficult to generate any kind of power with it. is this true ??

are you kidding ?? Isner can generate major pace without hardly any effort cause he has such long arms and tall stature. Guys this tall can generate power without too much effort.

Ok then.... I use Red Code and I don't have trouble at all with power....... more with control than power to say the least.

Pro Supex Big Ace is also available in red, and cheaper than the Redcode.

Big ace is a nice soft poly with good control. do you think redcode or Big ace is more powerful.?? which do you think has more power ?

Crazy. I was just about to flame away and tell you to google it, but prior to making myself look REALLY stupid, I decided to check it myself...

It doesn't even show where most people pick this stuff up from until the 3rd page of results!!

So in response to your question, google it, 3rd page, 1/4 way down...
