Luxilon 4G 125MM/17G Tennis String

Perfect string for use with natural gut main strings. Holds tension for at least 3x longer than any other poly that ive tried.One comment: The 4g is a VERY stiff string and is not very elastic at all. If you are using it in a hybrid setup with natural gut (which is very elastic) I would recommend stringing the 4g 4-5 lbs less than the gut. This will help the ball get more contact with the gut during impact and preserve a lot of the natural gut feel.

I play with Wilson Steam 105S racket. Nice racket but notorious for "eating" strings. Any gauge nylon strings or polyester strings thinner than gauge 16 last less then 10 hours of play in my hands. So my choice of strings is limited to gauge 16 polyester or similar. Out of this limited set I have found out that Luxilon 4G is one of the best options. Among the polyester strings the stiffness of these almost poly strings is medium. I don't know about the advertised superior tension retention as this has never been an issue for me. I strongly recommend them for rackets and/or players that tend to break strings often.

I'm a recreational player and this is the first polyester string that I've tried. The string doesn't give you a lot of free power, but the level of control is great. I can swing hard aggressively and keep the ball in the court. The tension maintenance is extremely good as well. The feel is quite muted, and I like it that way. It doesn't feel harsh on the arm or elbow yet. The strings don't move like in a multifilament, so I appreciate the fact that I don't have to align my racquet's strings during gameplay. Overall, I am quite satisified with this product. The only con is the steep price point.

Absolutely incredible feel, spin, power, and control in the first 2 hour session. Felt amazing. I was a star for a day. Still felt excellent for 2 more sessions but I could notice the decline. Feel and control dropped sharply after the third session with my Wilson 99s and gets progressively worse every outing. Just loses it's benefits too quickly for me and would only use again if I ever join a league and want to be at my best for a match. No idea what strings I will try next for the 99s.I also put these on my Wilson ProStaff 6.0 Original 85. First session was out of this world amazing(keep in mind this was my first time using anything other than stock strings). Same progressive drop with every outing but on this racket it felt good for much longer. Probably 10 sessions before it started to become more frustrating with the decreased control. This is my favorite stick. It is my wife's favorite too and she has used it exclusively in our last 8-12 sessions so the strings are holding up but move around more and just don't have that feel as when new.

Exactly: product with durability and definite value for the cost

Good feel with this string.

Tension with 57lbf on WISLON BLX SIX ONE 90 INCH ROGER FEDERER'S RACQUET.Tension remained almost same almost 3/4 year before reduced significantly. I played twice a week.I recommend this string for those who look for control and durability.

Great string. Good control, good power.
