FAQs

How often should I restring with LUXILON Poly Gold?

This depends on how often you play and your playing style. For frequent players, restringing every 10-20 hours of play is recommended.

What tension should I string my racquet at?

The recommended tension varies depending on your racquet and playing style. Consult with a stringing professional.

Is LUXILON Poly Gold suitable for beginners?

While it can be used by beginners, it is most beneficial for intermediate to advanced players who can capitalize on the control and spin.

How does Poly Gold compare to other LUXILON strings?

Poly Gold is focused on control and spin. Other LUXILON strings may offer more power or a softer feel. It is best to compare based on your needs.

How do I know if the string has broken down?

Look for fraying, notching, or a significant loss of tension. If the string snaps, it is definitely time to restring.

Can I use Poly Gold in all weather conditions?

Yes, but be aware that extreme temperatures can slightly affect string tension and feel.

Troubleshooting

String breaks prematurely.

Check for sharp edges on grommets. Consider adjusting string tension or changing string type.

Loss of tension and feel.

Co-polyester strings naturally lose tension over time. Restringing is recommended when performance diminishes.

Difficulty generating power.

Experiment with different string tensions or switch to a slightly thinner gauge string.
