The Middle Tension Club

[Zhou]

For all those who don't fit into the High Tension Club or Low Tension Club.
Your tension range of your usual setup would fall between the 2 clubs at 55 to 65.

**I string PHT at 58 and NXT at 62 on my usual setup, I am using TiMO because I wanted to try it and love it but now I have to go back to my old setup because it can get brutal playing 4+ hours a day.**

If you're including 65lbs, I fit in better here than in the high tension group. I go at 65lbs with full multi or syn gut jobs, but usually hybrid with poly in the mains @ 60, and multi/syn gut in the crosses at 62lbs.

 

[Lloyd Barcenilla]

58lbs for me.

 

[Zhou]

I am concerning your normal tension, your usual setup.

 

[soyizgood]

Typically 60 or 62 lbs if my racquet can handle it.

 

[kicker magic]

I have both my 2 Pure Controls at 56LBS I just qualify YAY.

 

[supermario343]

does 54-57 count? lol

 

[Zhou]

I'll accept that.

 

[supermario343]

I'll accept that.

haha woo hoo, thanks Zhou

 

[Zhou]

I am accepting that because 54 and 57 average out to 55.5 just over 55. Just made it.

 

[meowmix]

Can't play with anything less than 60 lbs. Normal tension 63 lbs with a multi. Does anybody know what I tension I should string with Isospeed Baseline at if I want to have about the same feel?

 

[soyizgood]

Zhou, I got a question for you. Shouldn't YOU increase your tension from 54 to 55lbs at least? That or lower the requirements to 54lbs?

 

[fastswingVD]

me
56-60lbs

 

[itsstephenyo]

I'm in on this. I usually string at about 57 on the racquets I use, but my Pro Kennex Copper Ace is down at 45... I never use it, though!

Zhou, I got a question for you. Shouldn't YOU increase your tension from 54 to 55lbs at least? That or lower the requirements to 54lbs?

I string PHT and NXT at 58 and 62 respectively in my normal setup.

 

[Zhou]

Congratz on making the choice. It is a great machine. You will have to wait a while though because they are not currently in stock.

a. Since when was 64lbs "middle tension"? I've barely met a person who strings about 65. Personally, I would have thought 53-62 would be "middle" of most ranges...

b. I thought the clubs thing was going a bit far, and now we have a "middle tension" club? Hmmm.

 

[Deleted member 33289]

i WAS around 67lbs but my arm was suffering so NOW im around 57-59 lbs. MUCH better!

im SO in lol

 

[Djokovicfan4life]

I string at 60 lbs for now, count me in!

Just to tell you I am not updating this thread as it should have been dead 2 months ago like I said in my other post.

 

[soyizgood]

If we keep getting requests, I could add to the list. It's not like I have a life anyway..haha
