    BG66 have great feeling.But thats on what other is saying.I dont feel different with my other string,BG65ti that last about 3 months and above.My BG66 only last few weeks.I still using my BG65ti right now,later will change back to BG80 or try BG65.
    I tried BG80 before,always mis-hit that time.Well,maybe it is because my wrong technique.

    But I dont feel different much on different string.Well,I think I should string BG66 before my tourney since people/yonex keep saying it have better feeling(replusion) and control...

    Dislike: NBG95 find the surface too slippy

    well..when i used..a racket string with BG85 i feel my shots are not producing loud sounds as it is labelled hard-hitting sound.Maybe its the tension problem

    Fav: BG65-Ti
    Dislike: BG66, probably just because Im used to BG65 so many yrs so its hard to adjust and plus BG66 is very easy to snap so have to replace it frequently

    String

    Favourite, Ashaway Zymax 67, easy to string, can reduce tension slightly when compared to say BG80. Now using 22x24.

    Close 2nd, is BG80, 24x26,

    Worst is Nanogy 95, too slippery, no feel. Always worry when doing the tie offs also.

    Like
    BG65 @ 28 lbs
    BG80 @ 27 lbs
    BG65Ti @ 28 lbs (first 5 days only)
    Ashaway Rally Ti22 @ 25-26 lbs
    Rally 21 @ 24-25 lbs

    Dislike
    BG85, Sotx RS66, BG68Ti

    Till now my favourite is BG65 @ 28 lbs, I can get the mixed result of having repulsion and control from it.
