Because I started to string myself I got to test more string and I think bg66um have a very big tension loss and also when I string my vt z force with bg80 and bg66um at 26lbs bg66um feel softer that bg80 and with bg80 I think the shot is more crisp like the sound. I haven’t had a chance to get any other make string any recommended string to try??

I prefer the bg66um, and I use it on my voltric 70. I like the sound and power of the strings, but I agree that it does feel a little soft.

BG66UM is a soft string compared to BG80 so this is expected.

 

I haven't noticed a lot of tension loss but there again I coach rather than play so this means I am not hitting as much as a player.

 

I do test a lot of strings and BG80 os extremely good. However, I prefer a soft string with my stiff racquet and feel it provides a bit more balance.
