The HEAD Lynx Power 17G (1.25 mm) in Silver (often styled as Platinum Silver) is a high-performance co-polyester monofilament designed for intermediate to advanced aggressive baseliners. Formulated with a lively co-polymer blend, it bridges the gap between traditional dead-feeling control polys and crisp power strings, delivering explosive energy return without giving up directional accuracy or pocketing feel.

The 17-gauge (1.25 mm) profile adds string bed elasticity and bite, producing higher launch angles and easy access to spin compared to thicker 16G variants.

Performance Profile

  1. Explosive Power & Energy Return (9.5/10): High for a poly. Delivers punchier depth on groundstrokes, allowing players to redirect pace with confidence.
  2. Impact Comfort & Shock Protection (9.0/10): Outstanding. Engineered to absorb harsh impact shock, offering a plush, low-vibration hitting experience that reduces arm strain.
  3. Spin Access & String Snap-Back (8.5/10): Excellent. Its slick surface treatment allows the main strings to slide and snap back fluidly at contact for reliable rotation.
  4. Control & Ball Dwell Time (8.5/10): Precise. Combines poly control with enhanced ball pocketing to help target lines on aggressive full swings.

Key Technologies

  1. Lively Co-Polymer Blend: Formulated to enhance energy transfer, giving players deeper, faster shots while retaining predictable response.
  2. Vibration-Dampening Core: Reduces high-frequency frame feedback on off-center hits, protecting developing joints during extended baseline sessions.
  3. 17G (1.25 mm) Profile: A versatile gauge that maximizes ball bite, launch angle, and spin potential while maintaining strong structural durability.

Best Suited For

  1. Aggressive Intermediate & Advanced Hitters: Players looking for a crisper, livelier poly that offers extra pop on groundstrokes.
  2. Players Transitioning to Polyester: Tennis players looking for modern poly control and spin without transitioning to a stiff, harsh string bed.
  3. Mid-to-Heavy Frame Racquets: Pairs cleanly with control-oriented or modern power frames (such as HEAD Speed, Prestige, Boom, or Radical) to add lively feedback and extra depth.
