Other factors to consider
String type is the headline choice, but these details decide whether the setup feels perfect.
String gauge
Thinner strings (16L, 17, 18) boost spin, power, and comfort but break sooner. Thicker strings (15, 15L, 16) last longer but feel firmer and slightly less lively.
String tension
Lower tension gives more power and comfort. Higher tension gives more control. Your ideal tension depends on your racket, string type, and swing speed.
When to restring
Strings lose tension over time even if you do not play. Regular players should restring every 2–3 months. Recreational players should aim for every 6 months at minimum.
String pattern
Open patterns (16x19) give easier spin and power. Dense patterns (18x20) give tighter control and longer life. Pattern choice changes what feels best for you.
