    So you're saying the yellow version will perform worse than the white version?

    According to some who are very experienced in playing with different rackets and strings, like Dink and Taneepak, the natural beige white version is always the best in repulsion, feel, crispness, etc.

    Just a friendly advise :)

    Its not good to be too detail in the equipment one use especially

    if one is a competitive player.

    Unless they are totally out or too far from your usual preference.

    I have seen too many players losing the game just because of

    string, tension, grip, shoes and even shirts! :eek:

    As for colors of string, yes they do differ

    and each batch/shipment of string of the same color also differ.

    Black used to be the worst among the colors and its not a myth :)

    It's brought the racket back to life. All the power I can ever need and great control and drives.

    Good boy :) Looks mean! I'm definitely getting some zymax black but it's whether I go with ZM65 or ZM70 at 2 or 3lbs or so tighter. Had both at the same tesnion and one was too tight, the other too loose. bah!

    My wife has said that I have to ditch my orange grips now in favour of black or red so I ordered some rkep ones earlier.

    Gotta warn you that the darker coloured G09 like red, black, dark blue are the least tacky.

    I've been using Yonex Super Grap until now so anything is an improvement according to reviews.
