Comments: This is a very good string. I strung Tourna Poly Big Hitter Blue Rough 16 on mains and with either Big Hitter Blue 17 or Big Hitter Silver Rough 16 on crosses. The rough edge on the Big Hitter Blue Rough is very profound, therefore it is very easy to create top spin. String got plenty of control and power too. After 6 weeks the mains got some light notches, but never moved. Other than that everything is still good.

Comments: Okay first off I have to say that this string plays great and has a lot of positive qualities. It gives good ball control and excellent spin, but the durability is absolutely horrendous! I'm a Future's level 6.0 player, and I pop these strings in about 60-80 minutes. That means I'm stringing at least 1-2 racquets EVERY DAY! I'm sorry but that's just ridiculous. Maybe it'll last for lower level players but for tournament players it's just not worth it.

Comments: After using the Big Hitter 16 gauge string extensively in hybrid setups with synthetic gut, I thought I would give the rough a try. Overall, it generates very good spin, especially on slice backhand shots; however, it is not as durable as the non-rough version and breaks at higher tensions (i.e. >60 lbs). However, I did find good durability in the 50-60 lb. range. Overall, a great string for the money, especially when compared to Luxilon Alu Power Rough.

Comments: First time using Tourna string. Very nice poly string. Good ball pocketing, good feel and most important, it feels soft. I tried couple poly before, most of them gave me good spin and power but don't have the soft feel like multi strings. But this one is very good and I love serving with this string, the spin is just fantastic. The power and spin of my serve gives me so much confidence to serve harder and w/good control.
