Semi-Pro
Since money is no option, I personally don't know why tour pros are not using full natural gut string jobs and are using poly or blends. I've used poly for a few years and it made shoulder problems worse. I'd stay away from it for that reason alone. I am going to gut because it offers great power and control (is supposed to maintan tension well too). Gut feel/control is so much better than poly to me. I get so much power, bite, & accuracy with less effort while placing less stress on my arm. I don't see poly having benefits over gut, period, when it comes to playability. For the rec player, cost could be a factor. However, cost doesn't matter to the pros.
