Big Hitter Silver 17G Tennis String

For players seeking a more playable polyester based string at an economic price, Tourna Big Hitter Silver 17 provides greater spin and feel at the cost of some durability compared to the 16 gauge version.   This string is a great option for the baseliner seeking durability with some additional pop. One of the few strings to use aluminum fibers, the poly-poly ether composition of this string allows for surprising resiliency for extra power. Placing the primary concern on control, Big Hitter provides ample spin generation to allow baseliners to swing freely and still control the ball. The German engineered string also rated highly for its resistance to string movement as the strings move back into their original place quickly after impact. It is recommended to string Big Hitter between 5 and 10% lower than normal tension due to the stiffness as well as the above average tension maintenance.

Composition: Extruded Poly-Poly ether monofilament
