HEAD Lynx 17G Green Tennis Strings

The HEAD Lynx 17G (1.25 mm) in Green is a versatile co-polyester monofilament engineered for intermediate to advanced tournament and club players who demand touch, directional control, and spin without sacrificing arm comfort. Offered in a high-visibility, vibrant Green cosmetic, this string provides a lively visual pop on court alongside a softer, more cushioned impact response compared to traditional, rigid tour polyesters.

The 17 Gauge (1.25 mm) thickness offers superior ball bite, crisp tactile feedback, and quick string bed snap-back to generate consistent topspin trajectories.

Performance Profile

1. Touch & Ball Pocketing (9.5/10): Superior for a monofilament. The elastic co-polymer blend softens shock at impact, extending ball dwell time on the string bed for enhanced feel on drop shots and touch volleys.
2. Control & Directional Accuracy (9.0/10): Precise. Delivers a predictable string bed response on fast swings, allowing aggressive baseline players to take full cuts at the ball while managing depth.
3. Arm Comfort & Shock Absorption (9.0/10): Outstanding. Smooth and forgiving on off-center hits compared to stiffer polyester options, helping to reduce joint fatigue.
4. Spin Access & Snap-Back (8.5/10): Reliable. Its smooth round surface treatment enables main strings to slide and snap back fluidly for consistent topspin rotation.

Key Technologies

1. Elastic Co-Polymer Blend: HEAD’s proprietary monofilament additives boost elasticity and shock absorption, providing a plush hitting feel without sacrificing poly durability.
2. Vibrant Green Finish: Features an optic green coating that provides high visual contrast on the court and adds a bold color accents to frame setups.
3. 17G (1.25 mm) Profile: Delivers optimal touch and ball pocketing compared to thicker 16G (1.30 mm) options, balancing snap-back spin and lively power transfer.

Best Suited For

1. Aggressive Intermediate & Advanced Competitors: Hitters seeking a reliable control string with enhanced tactile feedback and comfort.
2. Players Transitioning to Polyester: Tennis players looking for polyester spin and placement without adopting a harsh or dead string bed.
3. Bold Cosmetic Matching: Pairs dynamically with green, black, or multi-color racquets (such as the HEAD Extreme, Gravity, or Speed lines).
