    I found BG6 to have a weird feeling at low tension but at high tensions the weirdness is gone. BG6 has the same thickness as BG66 but has better durability.

    Bg66 is 0,66mm and bg80 is 0,68mm. My personal opinion is that bg66 has more power if strung at the same tension as bg80 but it will break easier than the bg80....but at high tensions your strings will always break if you mishit no matter which string you use :). I play with bg66 at 30/31lbs - 13,5/14kgs which is the best for me and I have tried all yonex strings because I am a stringer myself. So it isnt as expensive for me to break strings all the time but if you are to pay a stringer you should always take the bg80 if you dont want to spend money on strings all the time eventhough bg66 is better :D

    I did not mean literally going to JApan.

    I actually mean ordering them from Japan. That is how I have my NGB98 200m reels :D

    NBG95 should be sold worldwide so you don't have to go to Japan to buy it. Only NBG98 you have to but there many shops around the world that buy them from Japan and sell them

    The power of both strings is about the same but the durability of NBG95 is 2-3 times more than BG66.

    He might be talking about the JP version but CH and SP was released worldwide a long time ago.
