Comments: I am a 5.0 player and use a Prince Tour 98 ESP 16x16, this string is perfect for open string pattern racquets. I string at 63 lbs on a constant pull machine. This is quite high but I string for the long term. Initially it is a bit boardie at that tension but after 2 hours of play it settles down. I find it loses a bit of tension initially hence the higher tension, but then maintains tension well. For open string pattern racquets the 15 gauge give great control. You seem to get more string on the ball, hence more control. I have found control drops off quite a bit going down to 15L or 16 gauge. Very arm friendly with great feel. The snap back on this string is fantastic giving great spin attributes even with 15 gauge. Once it starts to notch spin starts to decline. For durability I get about 12-15 hours of play out of a set. Once it notches about 50% of the way through control starts to drop of dramatically. Then I cut them out. I will be using this for a long time to come. Also a great price at $79 a reel, you will find it hard to find better value/performance for your money out there.

Comments: I bought a reel of Prince Tour XC 15 and strung up my Wilson K95 team 18X20 racquet by using it in the mains and in the crosses, both at 52 pounds. It turned out a very good result: more durable, controllable, less string movement, and less tension drop. I cannot feel much of a ball pocketing difference compared with thinner strings I've used before. Both strings are also good at the price and costs only 4 dollar per racquet.

Comments: Flat out, the best spin friendly, low powered, low cost poly string that I have played with. I use it at high tensions (58-60 lbs) in power frames like the Pure Drive, and in open string pattern control frames like the Prince Pro Tour. Maintains tension well during heavy hitting and I am getting a solid 10-12 hours of playability out of them. I have had no comfort issues with them, even in the Pure Drive, at those high tensions. For those of you using sub 11 ounce frames, drop the tension by 5-7 lbs for similar playability. The black color version plays slightly crisper than the yellow version. If you are looking for a thick gauge, spin friendly, low powered poly at a price point that won't break the bank, this string would be an excellent option. Snag them up while you can.

Comments: I used a heavy, so-called tour sticks with a low gauge rough poly strings, e.g. Solinco Tour Bite, strung low. But I have never come to the secrets of decent, let alone extreme topspin stokes. Loosing my patience, I changed to a Head Graphene TX Rev Pro, the very opposite, with the same string set-up. Did not work too well, me spraying balls all over the court, with some topspin. Tinkering with a Fairway's leather grip and 5g lead in the hoop did not improve on the situation. But putting these strings at 53/55 lbs certainly did. Now all is well, touch shots still good, (length and directional) control is on, topspin a breeze, slice nasty. This string does it, at least 1. for this open string stick, and 2. for me. Very happy with this string. Next I shall put this string in one of my old tour racquets, just to see how it behaves. Mind the adage, the string is the soul of the racquet.

Comments: I recently switched from the Head Speed Pro 18x20 to the Wilson RF97 Pro Staff. My first thought was that the Prince Tour XC 15 is really thick -- 1.40mm in a traditional string pattern. I took a few days to think it over and finally pulled and installed the strings. First thought was thicker string, lower tension. I lowered for test purposes to -3lbs my preferred tension. Playing with it today, the strings felt very consistent. Height and spin was predictable in what the desired intention was on each shot. Underspin felt even better than 1.25mm (17g). The pace of shots dropped a bit, but this is a control string. Overall I'm happy with playing Prince Tour XC. Players changing head size ~--smaller to larger or players changing string patterns denser (18x20) to open (16x19) might appreciate the similarities that a open string pattern offers with similarities of an dense pattern racquet. -3 pounds felt springy but this is my first test and I wanted to go safe -- on the loose side. Hope this helped -- good luck everyone.

Comments: Took the Prince 100T ESP out for a demo, and it was strung with these strings. I was the first to demo it and the strings were fresh. Felt fine and crisp for the first hour, but after the 3rd hour, they were dead as could be...lost all feel and control. Maybe you guys might have better luck than me, but I won't be buying them anytime soon!
