AmazingI'm hooked on these strings for my crosses at 52lbs, and I use Babolat VS 16 gauge on the mains at 55lbs. Playing with the Yonex Percept 97D! Great pop on serve, and great control and touch. I can play everyday and no arm/shoulder pain at all. For summer I will bump to 55 lbs for the crosses and the Babolat VS to 59 lbs on the mains.
Great stringExcellent comfort, spin and control. Ended up buying a reel. Using on Head Speed Pro (auxetic) at 49 lbs and it has great feel.
Yellow StreakI've been playing with Yonex PolyTour Pro 17 for a few months now. It's continued to remain playable throughout that time in my EZONE 98 Tour at 50 lbs in mains/48 lbs in crosses. In comparison to other polys I've tried, PT Pro 17 remains one of my favorite strings from a performance standpoint. Plus, I like the flash yellow color!

Comments: The Clash Tour is the first racquet I have been able to use a polyester string in without arm issues. Then again it is recommended to string at low tensions, around 44 pounds so that helps too. Decent spin and power, nothing stands out, my only gripe is that it loses tension very quickly, seems to settle at around 36 to 37 pounds after a couple of matches. I have yet to break a string.

Comments: Comfortable, lively poly with great bite, spin, and control. I've strung at various tensions ranging from 40-56 lbs in my aeropros. I settled on 56 because I think it helps with the longevity of the string bed. At lower tensions this string feels great but loses tension quickly. I am a competitive all court 4.0 that often plays up against stronger opponents.

Comments: I tried this string and bought a reel right away! Very nice feel, easy on the arm, great durability and crisp. This string performs really well in all area which is exactly what I was looking for. My search is over. I string it at 55 lbs.

Comments: I tried many strings and always come back to this one. I appreciate good tension hold and it does not etch easily. So the string has very good pocketing and very consistent. I like to re-string at least once a month as I play daily. It's very soft for a poly with good feel and control. Spin is also very good. I usually string in upper 40 low 50 in my Yonex DR98.
From:Max, 4/11/17
Comments: Good all around, muted and control-oriented poly with a a little bit of extra pocketing compared to ALU Power or Tour Bite. Plays firm, but comfortable on off-center hits, therefore not overly harsh. Feel is muted, but not so much that I feel disconnected from my shots. Spin is good, but not exceptional. Feels like it takes some power off incoming balls as you feel the string pocket the ball. Playability duration is very good, as I didn't notice much a a drop off in performance over 5-8 hours. Tried 3 times between 48-51 pounds on Yonex RDiS 100 and 200 MP. I compare the feel to a more durable, firmer version of Signum Pro Poly Plasma Hextreme with a little less spin and power. I'm a 4.0 all-court player with heavy spin.

Comments: I really enjoyed these strings. They are very arm friendly and when the tension dropped they actually felt nicer. I might add that I also strung them lower -- my common sense was telling me too (48 lbs). But I actually preferred them once they dropped in tension to probably low 40s. I have always been a multi string guy at 58, so this was a surprise to me. They feel comfortable and have heaps of control in my Ezone DR 98 which gives me the confidence when I rip the ohbh down the line. Will use again for sure.

Comments: This is one of my top 3 favorite strings among Prince Premiere Touch, and Technifibre Multi-feel. These are very crisp strings that have it all. They have touch, spin, crisp feel, very arm friendly, and they absorb power great. My returns with these strings are tremendous. I will warn that if strung high, they take a few hours to break in. At first they feel stiff and non-forgiving with no power. Then when they break in they are sweet. I did try to lower my tension by 3-4 lbs and they felt much better from the start. Definitely a string that will be popular for years to come.
From:Brian, 10/15
Comments: I bought this string for my son who is 14 and plays USTA juniors. He is a lefty and hits pretty big with spin. His feedback was that the string is soft on the arm and has good power. The string's biggest drawback is that it doesn't last. He goes to clinics 3 days a week, 3 hours a day. Before using Yonex, he was using Tourna Big hitter, Kirschbaum and Lux Savage. While using this Yonex string, he breaks one every day. I don't mind stringing racquets, but not every day.

Comments: Yonex Poly Tour Pro 120 compares very nicely to the acclaimed Poly Tour Pro 125 - which was Stringforum's Newcomer Sring of 2012 and was rated amount the top three strings overall among all strings based on on their year end Tester's Poll. This same string was rated first in overall performance and Performance Value Ratio by their playtester's in 2012. Yonex PTP 120 feels slightly lower powered than the 125 with slightly more feel and more spin potential. If you loved the 125 - as I did - and want something soft and comfortable with a bit more bite, this is the string for you. I would but this string at the top of my all-time best Poly list right along side of the PTP 125. Keep it up Yonex!
