    Hi,

    Previously, my Ti-10 ( yellow ) is at 27-28lbs , love to play all my shots are fast... when i try BG66 at 26lbs. all feel so soft...my smashes are slow , there is no power..

    I tried my friends 24lbs ..when i hit the shuttle i can feel the tightness of the string... but when i hit on my 26lbs newly string.. it feels so soft...

    wats that so? :(:crying:

    What strings were you using before, and what strings were on your friend's racquet ?

    BG 80 has a harder feeling compared to BG66. Why did you lower your tension?:confused:

    you may try restring on your friend service, then do it again at 26, maybe the result will be different with your usual

    basically bg-66 and bg-80 all about the same, should be lower the tension by 5-10% from thicker string.
