I'm a stringer and 4.0 player.
I don't really write reviews of products, unless it's really deserving, and that is the case today.
I have about 10-12 reels of various poly on hand at all times.
Big names and little names like ytex too. I am open minded.
I had been playing square x sharp 18g, which plays like a 16L IMO, or at least a 17 b/c of it's shape.
And protour 17L black in the crosses.
Great hybrid with massive bite.
Don't love the string maintenance, but when it's good, it's amazing.
I have played with almost every TruPro string, bought a bunch of demo packs. However, my first reel of TruPro, was Pure Rush.
I never tried a pack of this, I just sprung for a reel.
A beautiful blue in 18g, with some bite (at least on paper), I had to take a shot.
I am happy to report I was right!
I have two players on it, who are quite picky.
We are all very excited about this string.
The feel is good. The control/power/pop/bite all seem great.
the pocketing feels so good. It's intoxicating.
I am surprised that it doesn't require any break in time.
That was my primary turn-off, with regard to TP strings, with all the packs I tried.
It really bummed me out, actually.
But I have been even more surprised that it seems to play well, deep in the playing time, meaning it is not getting awful as the hours are accumulated.
This could just be my personal game, but I'm curious about you guys?
I personally have it in the new extreme pro at 51/49. I take big cuts. This is a 98. And I am using the 18g.
I am considering trying 17g, but I've only played with 18g over the past few years.
Great job, TruPro, you really came out with a winner here.
I wonder if we will see new colors in the future or not. TruPro seems to have 1 or maybe 2 colors for each string grade, correct?
LOVE all the gauge options across the board. Kudos.
I just ordered a couple more reels.
at the end of the transaction.... Please wait...we are processing your order!
that is the only hiccup.
Definitely some site issues, at checkout.
