    To be honest there isn't enough of a difference for me to worry too much. My go to string is BG-80. I'll occasionally string with BG66 or BG66um but I don't really notice a big difference. I'm looking forward to giving BG-80P a try.

    My last string was done with Victor string (VSF-850 or something like that) absolute crap. It may be the first time I cut out strings before they break. However, I'll give it a few more sessions before I make a final judgement.

    one certain is the hitting sound the BG80 has a lower pitched sound compared to the higher pitched BG66/BG66UM
    At first using BG80 was strange,different compared if I strung my racket with BG66/BG66UM
    at the beginning I could smash really hard it is as if I had to slow down my smash, however I didn't face the same problems with the other 2 strings
