String request to review/comment: Boris Becker Bomber NYC 17

[Overdrive]

Dear TW,

I was watching most of your string reviews, and I have several sets of BB Bomber NYC 17 and I'm not sure on what tension to string. For example, Andy commented on the Dunlop Black Widow 17 that he strung his racquet 10 lbs tighter because the co-poly was so soft. I ponder if this string is the case. I know I can experiment on my own, but I wonder if anyone at TW ever tested these strings. I would love to have their feedback on it.

Thanks,

Overdrive

Bump,

No playtester has ever used these strings? None.....?

Sorry for the late post. Bomber is a medium powered poly, so no need for me to bump up the tension with this one. In a mid like the PB 10, I'd be right at 52lbs. In something like the C10 Pro which plays livelier and is a midplus, I would bump up to 55-57lbs depending on conditions (court speed, weather etc).

Hope that helps.

Chris, TW
