reading this study on strings losing tension. Figure 2 really got me thinking. Tour bite strung at 62 lbs will quickly drop to <30lb? did I misunderstand the article?
What happens if I strung the same Tour Bite at 42lbs (strung tension) instead of 62lbs and hit it 8000 times as shown in the chart? the tension when the string is dead ("dead" tension) will be <15lb? or maybe lower strung tension actually allows poly to live longer or decay slower?
I guess my question is how strung tension affects "dead" tension. Anyone has info or experience on that?
