The HEAD Lynx Tour 17G (1.25 mm) in Black is a tour-tier, 6-sided (hexagonal) co-polyester monofilament designed for intermediate to advanced players with fast, aggressive swing speeds. The sleek Black cosmetic offers a classic, low-profile look on the court, while the 17 Gauge (1.25 mm) profile provides sharper bite, higher launch angles, and extra string-bed elasticity compared to thicker 16G variants.

Unlike standard round Lynx strings, the Lynx Tour series features a geometric profile specifically engineered to maximize ball bite, trajectory shaping, and tension retention.

Performance Profile

  1. Spin Potential & Ball Bite (9.5/10): Superior. The sharp 6-sided hexagonal geometry grips the tennis ball felt on impact, allowing players to generate heavy topspin rotation and steep downward trajectories.
  2. Control & Target Accuracy (9.5/10): Precise. Offers a firm, predictable string bed response that gives hard hitters complete confidence to swing out fully without overhitting.
  3. Tension Maintenance (9.0/10): Outstanding. Holds playable tension noticeably better than standard co-polyesters, minimizing performance degradation over extended play.
  4. Touch & Dwell Time (8.5/10): Balanced. Delivers a firm-yet-dampened impact feel that provides connected feedback on touch shots and volleys without feeling harsh.

Key Technologies

  1. 6-Sided Hexagonal Geometry: Sharp outer edges dig into the ball at contact, maximizing main-string deflection and bite for topspin generation.
  2. Tour Co-Polymer Blend: Formulated for enhanced durability and dampening, offering control without transferring harsh frame vibrations to the joints.
  3. 17G (1.25 mm) Profile: Enhances string snap-back and tactile feedback relative to thicker 16G (1.30 mm) options, offering a livelier launch off the string bed.

Best Suited For

  1. Aggressive Baseline Hitters: Tournament and high-level club players looking for spin bite and depth control on full swings.
  2. Players Seeking Tension Stability: Competitors who want a predictable, long-lasting co-poly string bed feel.
  3. Stealth Cosmetic Matching: The solid Black colorway pairs seamlessly with almost any frame cosmetic, providing a clean look across the HEAD Speed, Extreme, Gravity, Boom, Radical, or Prestige lines.
