    Wrong place should be in the string section.

    This is the string section!

    I play with BG80 at 25lbs on a ZELM PP9990. Great for smashes, smash returns, clears and drive shots. I play doubles every Friday for about 3.5 hours. String broke after about three months. I find it doesn't give the touch a round the net I was expecting but that is probably due more to my technique than the string. When the string breaks next I am going to try BG66 Maxima.

    BG66 Maxima is only 0.65mm where as BG80 is 0.68mm thick. The thinner string has more control. I switched from BG85(0.67mm) back to BG80(0.68mm) because BG85 didn't last very long for me, and also I had to replace some of the main grommets during restringing. My racquet is strung @ 26/28 #s.
